The Skeptical Shaman

I rate this podcast 5 Odins!

I discovered this podcast a few months ago. I cannot tell express how grateful I am to find what feels like an oasis in a world of chaos and confusion. I am working my way through back episodes. It seems incredible how often the episode that by all intents and purposes, are theoretically random, are astonishing applicable to the most challenging experiences in my daily life. There have been some life bumps lately. The clarity and perspective I find in this show offers has given me access to tools to deal with life’s challenges in a way I have not found else where. The guest featured on this program have diverse and interesting perspective. I really appreciate the seek safely pledge and Rachels choice to work with ethical practitioners. There is and always has been some “whoo” built in to the fabric of my person but I think I put it away for a long time and it’s time to bring it out into the light. That feels new, exposed and vulnerable is rather scary. Hearing an educated, intelligent well spoken woman who tells it like it is, is phenomenal and bolstering. Please keep up the good work and thank you for what you have already done. Today I do not have the means for non essentials but I will keep working at it and I look forward to have the opportunity to be able to work with you in person. I feel like from the stories you have shared, that we have lead somewhat parallel lives, I find I relate and connect easily to the you and relate well to the episodes content. I appreciate you.

Rachel does a great job balancing the vulnerabilities and mystery of following a spiritual path with keeping your head on straight and not being lured into some of the purely nonsensical rabbit holes out there.

I have admired Rachel’s work for awhile now, and hearing her fascinating and incredibly wise take on all things spiritual and woo is always so thought provoking. She covers many topics with professionals and practitioners that are thoroughly vetted and thoughtful in how their contribution to the airwaves of podcasting can leave you feeling glad you tuned in, rather than wanting your time back! Incredibly smart, sharp and powerful.
