Taking Others’ Advice is a Scam

Somewhere between ignoring my gut in corporate jobs, randomly getting into circling and bingeing White Lotus like it was a spiritual download, I realised something: my life only works when I actually listen to myself. Not in a floaty 'trust the universe' way - but in a clear, grounded, bodily way. This episode is about that. How I used to override every signal my body gave me because I thought someone else must know better. How I confused safety with purpose. And how I started building a decision-making process that actually fits me. I share three things that helped me tune back into my inner guidance: learning how my body says yes or no, using Human Design to understand how I’m meant to make choices and tracking the odd little urges that kept showing me the way - usually before I could explain why. If you’ve been stuck in analysis mode, overthinking every move, or waiting for clarity to strike - maybe your next step is already in your body. You just haven’t learnt how to hear it yet. ~leave the linear path behind~ @katrinazlcmn

Snow White’s Descent: A Tale of Rage, Reflection and Return

In this episode, we step into the archetypal forest of Snow White - not to decode her but to mirror her. From embroidered wishes and poisoned apples to psychic descent and symbolic rebirth, this is a tale of innocence confronted by rage, beauty twisted by envy and a silence that waits to be broken. Drawing from Jungian psychology, Marie-Louise von Franz and personal memory, I trace the hidden architecture beneath the familiar fairytale: the devouring mother, the glass coffin, the animus and the shadow. This isn’t about good vs evil - it’s about integration. Fairytales aren’t just stories. They’re psychic maps. Mirrors. Loops that refuse to close until we pay attention. For anyone navigating the spiral path of self-reclamation, this one’s for you. Meet me in the afterglow @katrinazlcmn Music by Ashot Danielyan from Pixabay
