91. Amorality, Suffering and Manifestation (Part 1) ft. Jaliessa Sipress
This is one of my favourite episodes to date! I’m joined by the brilliant astrologer wizard Jaliessa Sipress to discuss amorality, the nature of suffering, manifestation and human duality
Amorality and moving away from good/bad and right/wrongManifestation and moving away from mainstream models. Engaging with world suffering and debating the idea of resilienceSocial expectations, fear of judgement and being labelled a “bad” personIs it possible to engage in the suffering of others without becoming consumed by it?Detachment and choosing what to prioritize. The concept of urgency
Part 2 is IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE over on Patreon! We shift gears and have a blast discussing pop culture:
Diddy, celebrity and how abuse is a symbiotic organism in HollywoodAre you really ready to Eat the rich and cancel y’alls faves, Bey included? (NO)Celebrity as a mirror of our own shadow and darknessAndrew Huberman and the expectation of universal morality from the people we admireThe conduct we accept interpersonally vs. from public figuresUnfettered spiritual practice leading to psychosis, the importance of knowing your limits

90. People Pleasing Causes More Conflict than it Resolves
I didn’t stutter! On this episode we are graced with Nyak’s presence to discuss all things people pleasing. Is it a tool that helps avoid conflict, or does it actively contribute to it? We read out your juicy people pleaser DMs (thanks for sending them) and discuss polyamory and a dust up with a psychic (oops! everyone pray for us😬). Additionally:
Communicating capacity and boundaries in friendshipsCommunication styles over textOverextending oneself and its consequencesHow to communicate the inability to hold spaceAppropriate vs. Inappropriate white lies

81. Leave Amanda Seales alone! Black Autistic Women are Targets
Amanda Seales is being unfairly dog-pilled on. When people are cut down because they're honest and direct, what does this say about society at large? If it's unsafe for a successful, effective, beautiful neurotypical woman (I recorded this a week before she shared she was autistic - okay psychic!) to be unflinching in her anti-establishment critiques, what hope is there for the average black autistic woman? This episode dissects bullying dynamics, the price of honesty, Hollywood, blackness and the isolation that comes from being a truth-teller. I discuss:
The Unfair Treatment of Amanda Seales and Its Implications on black autistic womenThe Intersection of Autism, Likability, and Professional SuccessBlack Hollywood, oppression, and how bullies thrive in silence

Arguments in favour of staying aliveFinding joy while the world is burningFinding ones place in the worldAutism and justice sensitivity Magic and nature
