    Track 9: Words to Live By

    And here we are… landing The Mothership Volume 2 with our final track for The Village. Track 9 is a montage of “Words to Live By.” It was always our intention to create an audio-first experience for present and future mothers. Even if that meant we made it slow, intentionally, and one track at a time. Along the release of this sophomore audio album, we received many private messages from you. One of the themes from those messages that stands out to me is the concept of how energizing it is for others when we each embody our personal destiny with a holy endurance — for others to see. This is the idea that “keeping up” is a practice that you do which gives hope to others when they see it in action. This is the idea that most of the effect your work has in the world after it leaves you, you won’t see directly, or at all. But it will have an effect, nonetheless. This is the idea that your single pointed projection creates a legacy of sound that holds an infinite number of potential possibilities for others to create from. This is the idea that the Giver always receives the most. It’s been such an honor to share this commitment with you. We hope you’ve enjoyed Volume 2. Track 9 is a montage of “Words to Live By.” Credits include: (in order of appearance) Ana Orrach Phylicia Rashad Ariana Reines Aretha Franklin Guru Jagat Amy Keller Gurujas Khalsa — Sound mixed and produced by Jeana Donovan Edited by Jeana Donovan and Amy Keller This is a public episode.

    Track 6: More Love, More Chaos, More Art.

    “For me, my mediumship is how I serve the world and then my art is to remember myself. It’s a need; an itch I have to scratch.” - Mary Grisey Mary channels her guides and her own inner wisdom, to share why Now is a really good time to reinvent yourself, her personal practices for activating creativity, and even shares the psychic vision she has mid-conversation with Jeana. Conversation Highlights: * Art as Channeling: Am I Channeling? What’s important in the urgency to create. The sticky aura. The gift of presences through the pressures of mothering. The intelligence of your spirit team. * Mary’s Personal Practices: More love and more chaos and more responsibility in your life. The importance of Prayer. * Relationship with the Mother: “My first daughter gave me confidence. My second daughter has given me a true connection back to spirit & the shadow and light in myself.” * Do We Have to Monetize Our Art? “It may not be making money, but if it comes from your soul, it probably will. Our spirit time is not going to allow us to fail if we are resonating from our hearts.” Should we fear AI.
