    S2 EP3: Planet Medicine Astrology Update with Octavia Carney

    Stripping away is such a gift. There is no loss, no scarcity. Only clear space to see what truly matters. What you want to create as the fullest expression of you. Choosing only what brings you the MOST joy. This was one of my greatest medicines of the end of 2021. I spent nearly three months living in a community falling in love in the wild rainforest with my partner. Disconnected, naked most days, eating nothing that comes in a package or with a barcode. I fell off any remaining pedestal I had been standing on, or attempting to raise myself onto. I found what I naturally loved, when survival is not a concern and all I could perceive was abundance from the Earth. I created simply for my joy and to share healing energy with those around me.  In the past weeks I've been stripping back even more. What seemed like safety and security is falling away and not to my detriment, but to make space for what truly matters. This theme of course had my intuition spark to reach out to Octavia for her astrological references.  We gathered on this episode to share our wisdom and map them to the planetary transits, in a special collaboration between The Visionary Vortex and Octavia's podcast Planet Medicine for the Leo new moon and months ahead.  There's plenty of oracular insights here, including why you may need to prepare as if you would have at the start of 2020 if you knew exactly what was coming on a global level... Tune in to prepare for your highest evolution.  You can follow the Planet Medicine podcast on all streaming platforms for more of Octavia's epic regular updates.  About Octavia Octavia is a Cosmic Activator and Planet Medicine Guide. A visionary astrological advocate and key holder of wisdom, guiding you from restriction to expansion on your path of evolution. She has a unique and personal relationship with astrology and how she uses it to understand and interpret her life experiences, formed from a decade of intimate exploration and thousands of hours of inquisitive, self-initiated research.

    S2 EP2: Evolving Communities Through Transformational Partying with Ember Spring Jaiah

    There is a never a part of our life journey that isn't relevant to our growth and lessons we need to learn for our soul's purpose. Dance, music and partying has been a core part of my life, and I've been down the paths of experiencing the bliss of ecstasis in ways that have been both potentially harmful and supportive to my wellbeing.  When we turn to a path of choosing our highest wellbeing, we often may believe it means giving up partying. Partying is associated with poisoning our bodies and spirits. Yet partying is a bridge between all of humanity, all walks of life can come together on a dance floor. Reviving the ritual of gathering community to reach ecstatic states through music and dance will support us to heal as a collective, and as global movements of transformational partying expands, artists are sharing New Earth frequencies worldwide. In this episode I interview Ember 'Spring Jaiah' about her path as an ecstatic dance DJ, dancer and facilitator of transformational partying spaces. We go deep on this topic, as well as the value of being of present and in-service to your land and community through in-person events, and how you can start your own ecstatic dance event as well as: - The magic of Far North Queensland (the land that has been holding me since after Season 1) - Our shared journey’s in Bali and the island’s influence on the global ecstatic dance movement - Turning your healing path into art and service - Localising your leadership - Bringing the healing experience back to simplicity, fun, connection and play - Remembering that life is a party and taking party culture out of the shadows of disconnection to creative expression - Healing through intimacy with aligned group frequency - Shifting culture and consciousness through intentional music and sound About Ember Inspired by the reemergence of the feminine earth, and as such an embodied leader of community vision and change through movement, music and intentional community experiences in Far North Queensland, Australia since approximately 2016. Studying across the world multi-disciplinary movement arts, her own own deep seeded psycho-somatic healing crisis and integrated shadow work, including shamanic studies, today Ember is a multifaceted artist - as primarily Ecstatic Dance DJ, dancer and movement facilitator, and ritual/ceremonial space creator who is passionate about re-connection to the body as re-connection to the Earth. 
She is also the founder and creative director of Ecstatic Dance Cairns, tropical Australia’s official Ecstatic Dance community and the owner of Dancing Dakini Designs, an all women’s clothing range that runs from Ubud, Bali via her ETSY shop.

Bec believes that true leadership comes from empowering you to recognise your own divinity and power.

    S1 EP18: The Divinity of Sex Work with Cathy Reed

    Season 1 ends with a special interview with a true visionary in her field - a dear sister Cathy Reed. She is a pioneer and activist in the space of erotic expression and revolutionising sex work, to bring it out of the shadows and into the light. I've had the honour of witnessing Cathy navigate her path of leadership and shine through her dedicated process of self-healing. In this episode she shares her in-depth wisdom from discovering her sex worker lineage, navigating taboo around sexuality from her Church upbringing, how she found the divinity of her erotic expression through a self-initiated creative dance project, her perspectives on the healing potential of sex work and how she is mentoring women on this path.  We also cover other hot topics such as the rise of women stepping into sexual healing work and sex entertainment through platforms such as OnlyFans, the ancient history of sexual priestesses and how this is being awakened in many people around the planet right now.  Cathy Reed, a third generation exotic dancer, sensual expression is her birthright. Unrestrained by any formal training she breaks all the rules and boundaries that would inhibit her innate expression. Drawing on her experience as a former sex worker Cathy has committed to bringing the world sexual healing and the freedom to embrace their own erotic innocence. In doing so she has created a mentorship program to help others free themselves from shame and reconnect to their core sexuality.
