44. SaraWidda I
44. SaraWidda I

Today I talk with SaraWidda. Sara is an paleoanthropologist who shares her knowledge about the origin of our species and our ancient history, freely on social media. She seems to attract every hater-racist-bigot in the area and gets into deep debates over the fossil record and what the science tells us about ourselves… and she has the receipts.

In this episode we focus on Indigenous learning and Landback and the rise of violence in the human species. Sara ends on a cliff hanger of epigenetic trauma - so if you want to know more, please click the link below.

SaraWidda and all her receipts can be found around the internet.

43. Dr. Dave is Calling
43. Dr. Dave is Calling

Dr. Dave is continuing to teach from Spirit and is calling to those on the path of Landback. He has been a big influence on the direction of my learning and his guidance has deepened my understanding and experience of a life lived connected to Land.

Simple suggestions have lead to deep discovery about myself and what is important and true in my life.

If you’re here - you are called to Nii Gaani Aki Inini’s teaching circle.

42. Bogs + Good Native Plants II
42. Bogs + Good Native Plants II

What is the meaning of good native plants for a person who's on a spiritual journey?

I talk again today with Bogs, a Mi'kmaq student of Environmental Sociology at McGill University in Montreal. Bogs has started a non-profit in service of Mother Nature called Good Native Plants.

We covered a variety of topics and tangents on this podcast, including the supremacy of Indigenous Traditional Knowledge, Animal and Plants as Nations, engaging with and connecting to Passion + Purpose, Native plants as a process to decolonize, plant systems as exemplars of good social systems and so much more.

I really enjoy speaking with Bogs and I hope you do too. Check out their non-profit if you’re looking to re-design your property/spaces to be more integrated and beneficial to the whole of Nature.

41. Bogs + Good Native Plants

Today we talk with Bogs, a Mi'kmaq student of Environmental Sociology at McGill University in Montreal. Bogs has started a non-profit in service of Mother Nature called Good Native Plants.

We talk the difference between Western science and Traditional Indigenous Knowledge and biodiversity as immunity, linguistics + language, and I almost cry because I love the Land so much. We had a lot to share an I interrupted too much.

Also, count how many times I said "interesting" in this podcast, it's ridiculous.

Part II should be up shortly.

40. MR. SAUGA - Earthbound
40. MR. SAUGA - Earthbound

Jordan Jamieson, MR. SAUGA - a rapper, archeologist, Michi Saagii of the Credit and the creator of the soundtrack to my awakening to vocation in this life.

I LOVE all of this. His album “Earthbound” has been on repeat in my life for over a month. I wake up to Anishinabek words, phrases, and his lyrics in my head. There is synchronicity here for me, and a deep sense of gratitude for his expression of Spirit in the World of Form.

We talk about a bunch of stuff - his music, the language, sovereignty, Land + Spirit. Please support his music. Go buy it, stream it and vote for him on the Indigenous Music Countdown. Very grateful for this in my life.

39. The Pretanī Witches are on Turtle Island
39. The Pretanī Witches are on Turtle Island

I feel like this title needs an explainer.

Pretanī is a more accurate title for the people and land of the original indigenous “Celtic” people of Ireland and the UK. Apparently, “Celtic” was a term applied to the people in the 18th century to differentiate them from Anglo-English.

Desiring a greater connection to Spirit means paying attention to what roots us in identity and Place. “Celtic” descendants will gain from rooting into our Ancestry and how that is revealed on Turtle Island.

We talk Witches and Witchcraft as the remnants of our “Celtic” cultural and spiritual heritage + why I don’t resonate with Wicca. I share what I think are the 2 most important tasks asked of us to become Authentic Expressions of Soul at this time.

This is part I of II - stick around for the second part.

38. Bambi Dawn III - The Body Connection
38. Bambi Dawn III - The Body Connection

Bambi and I finish up our chat by talking about being in our bodies, even when that’s not such a great experience. Bambi shares her encounters with medical self-advocacy, language and the connection to Spirit and Ceremony as a helpful solution to anxiety.

I thoroughly enjoyed my epic chat with Bambi and I hope you do too. Please contact me if you’d like to talk with me about Land + Spirit. It’s my favourite thing!

37. Bambi Dawn II - Ancestral Healing

Today we continue our epic chat with Bambi and share ancestral healing and intergenerational trauma survival stories.

Skip to 8 mins-ish to avoid childhood SA mention.

Bambi shares her experiences and learnings in a relatable, grounded wisdom kind of way. It was refreshing to have such a frank and open conversation about all kinds of things that are often taboo to discuss openly. Thanks Bambi.

35. Elder Dr. Dave
35. Elder Dr. Dave

I’ve spoken about Dr. Dave before and I assume I’ll be speaking about him at length in the future. He is continuing his Teaching Circle work from Spirit and is available to all who answer his call to be in right relationship with Land + Spirit.

He has been teaching me over and over again about communication with and for the Earth. Sharing love for the Earth and sharing love about the Earth is the message he is repeating to me and the lesson I am learning until I am able to embody that truth in the world.

This is for you too. This is for everybody.

30. Magick and Miracles
30. Magick and Miracles

Creation is designed to love us and entertain us and teach us and provide us with the miraculous - if we allow Them. If we accept Them. If we are willing to share.

Magic isn't something outside of Creation. Magic comes from the Greek root "magos" or Latin "magus" which is the same as "mage" or "member of the learned class". To be magical is to understand what is asked of us and live in harmony with the natural world. Synchronicity is a result of living in magic. Having the Universe respond to our needs is living in magic. We are all magicians in wholiness.

29. Owing Creator and Living in Transactional Spirituality
29. Owing Creator and Living in Transactional Spirituality

Western society equates worth with prosperity.

Prosperity gospel, the protestant work ethic - Christian ideology intimately connects our financial and social status with our 'favour' with God. If we are prospering it is God's will and reward for our obedience. If we are struggling, it's because we've strayed, we are not obedient, or hard-working, we are not favoured or rewarded by god.

This is some fucked up shit.

28. We Kill Our Gods
28. We Kill Our Gods

I don't stand here and say "I am Christ. I am God incarnate on Earth." Except that's exactly what I'm saying - because it’s the truth and it’s not just me, and it’s not just you - it’s the reality of all of the everything.

That's the reality of existing in Creation.

That is the call for all of us in existence to become self-aware of our own divine wholiness and recognize the divine wholiness in all of Creation.

I'm a little scared to do this, because it doesn't often work out for those who stand for divine wholiness.
