The Hearth for Wondering Souls

I know it's "late" had some realizations and needed to restructure the episode. I hope you guys enjoy. In this episode, we pull over on the side of the road and take a look at the map we’ve been holding. So many of us walk paths drawn by family, culture, or survival, and rarely stop to ask if the directions fit who we are in this present moment.Together, we explore how to identify the map you’re holding, study the inner topography of your life, and choose your next steps with intention. We also look at where intuition and anxiety blur, and how to tell them apart by returning to your body’s signals.This episode is an invitation to pause, reorient, and reconnect with the compass within you.Segments(00:11) Opening Flame (00:45) If you only take one thing from this episode(02:00) The Map(05:07) Steps(07:45) Where fate meets choice(14:00) You can only be you(17 :50) Frequencies and boundaries(21:53) Nourishing ourselves(23:24) The Ember’s EndA huge Thank you! To my teachers and guides both seen and unseen, who continue to walk with me through my ever becomingMy AncestorsErika BuenaflorSuzzy Evolutionary Laurie A.

In this New Moon episode, we gather around the fire to explore what it means to walk by moonlight. Moving not with certainty, but with intuition, gentleness, and trust.Mishka shares how winter invites us inward, asking us to loosen old patterns, listen for quiet truths, and tend the soil of our lives with intention. Together, we reflect on fear, doubt, and the internal resistance that surfaces when we begin to align with our authentic path. Through personal stories, ancestral echoes, and spiritual teachings from the many paths she’s walked. We explore what it means to reclaim the pieces of ourselves we once hid for safety.If you’re wandering your own path, gathering pieces, or listening for your next step, this episode offers warmth, belonging, and a gentle reminder.You are enough.You belong.You are loved by so many unseen hands.A huge Thank you!
