  • Ep 44. On: Burnout and Aliveness (+ some updates)
    Jul 21 2024

    This episode marks a shift (at least for now) in the format of these podcast episodes.

    Instead of sitting around the fire, we’re moving through the world.

    Instead of longer and deeper, we’re aiming for more bite-sized (hopefully without losing nuance).

    And, at least for now, you’ll mostly just be hearing from me.

    These changes are prompted in part by the needs of my own life, and in part as a response to the world and what it seems like we’re all needing in these times. We need more movement, more time outside (walk with me as you listen, perhaps?). And we need less of pretty much everything else when it comes to consumption and taking in.

    As you’ll hear me share in the episode, part of my post-pilgrimage integration has been continuing to reflect on burnout - the causes, cost, and antidote. I started my trip depleted, I ended up alive. And I’ve been curiously tracking that within myself since to see what the causes were, how our lives seem to predispose us to burnout, and what the possibilities might be if we can end that cycle.

    While there’s a lot I could say on the subject (and you’ll continue to hear me explore), in this episode I focus more on:

    • burnout vs aliveness as questions of energetic balance;
    • my suspicion that burnout is a modern ‘ailment’;
    • noticing and responding to a cycle of burnout before it gets too bad;
    • linear progress vs cycles as two rhythms - and only one allows for aliveness;
    • and why this matters for the world.

    Let me know if this stirred any thoughts. I’d also love to hear initial impressions on this new format.

    And if you know another sensitive, soulful human who struggles with burnout from trying to fit into the middle when they belong on the edges, and you think they might like this episode, feel free to share this.


    May we stay human. May we create worlds of vibrant aliveness.


    With care,

    Kate

  • Ep 43. Aliveness: Inevitable? Or, Nah? (also How Many Times Have I Eaten Soap?)
    May 23 2024

    If we assume that because we’ve been born and are not yet dead, we’re alive… is there a cost? What is aliveness, after all? And how many times will I eat soap?

    This is an episode about aliveness. An episode about cycles of rupture and repair. An episode where I share a silly story about me eating soap (multiple times, to date!) and some of my own journey from being unaware to being more in rhythm with life.

    A few months shy of this podcast’s second birthday, and inspired in a few ways by my conversation with Tad Hargrave (ep 38) and work I’m doing in his Marketing for Hippies Membership, this is an episode where I tune back into the question these conversation coalesce around: what does it mean to be human… and what if being human, being alive, isn’t inevitable?


    You’ll hear:

    • how decreasing aliveness and interrupted rupture-repair cycles seem connected to me;
    • the way I see aliveness trying to manifest itself through us now;
    • the three planes of existence and the three main alchemical ingredients I see as necessary for repair after rupture (and in any attempt to align ourselves again with life);
    • why certain modalities may only take us so far… and more.

    Since much of this conversation seems to land squarely at the heart of how I see the world (and my work within it), I would love to hear from you: what pinged? What do you disagree with or have more questions about? Any thoughts/ impressions? You can email me: kate@wildsacredjourney.com. I’d love to hear.


    May we find again our rhythm in the cycles of rupture and repair - in moments when that’s easy and in moments when we have a lot of skin in the game. May we see our aliveness as a precious gift to be stewarded with care. May we remember Love as the necessary ingredient in all things. And may we learn our lessons so we don’t have to keep eating soap… or at the very least, eat less of it each time.

  • Ep 42. Building a Boat for Torin - story, craft, ceremony, community, life, and death (w/ Duncan Passmore)
    May 7 2024

    How do we say ‘yes’ to life, without saying ‘no’ to death? How do we “rise to the occasion” and “wrestle something good” from the heartbreak of a terminal diagnosis? What does it look like to “become familiar with grief and uncertainty in intimate ways”?

    Today’s virtual fire-side conversation about being human and being alive is with Duncan Passmore - husband, father, writer, and woodworker of 20 years - as he shares his story and the story of his son, Torin, diagnosed at a young age with Pearson syndrome, a rare and incurable mitochondrial disorder.

    It’s a story of life and death, grief and beauty; punctuated with the power of story, the mystery of ceremony, the practice of craft and community… and the building of boats.

    It’s also a way of inviting you, if you feel able and called to, to weave into the community Torin has inspired and contribute to Duncan’s family’s GoFundMe; raising the funds to support them spending six months with Torin’s presence and his memory as they build a boat and sail it on Lake Windermere - a request of Torin’s he didn’t live to see fulfilled.

    As someone grappling in my own ways (as most of us are) with fears, griefs, and the way life laughs at plans; as someone who believes in the power of community, of cultures devoted to full-spectrum aliveness, mystery, story, and ceremony; this feels like a deeply worthy story to share and a deeply worthy endeavor to support.


    Join us around the fire? You’re most welcome here.


    May we shed the armor which keeps us trying to hold off what is. May we become vulnerable enough and brave enough to share our stories so community might find us and, when the time comes, hold us. May we use our hands and heart to craft beauty from grief so we might fully embody at least some small part of what it seems to mean to be human and to be alive. May Torin’s presence and memory live on through the ripples of his story and the way it disarms us and invites us to rise to the occasion of our own lives.


    You can find out more about the project and become a part of the prayerful building of the boat through Duncan’s GoFundMe:

    Please also consider sharing the GoFundMe so we can continue casting the net wider and weaving more people into this story. They’re at 50% as of the recording/ publishing of this episode and have until June 9th to make it the rest of the way.



    P.S. My Zoom seems to have finally caught up to the version with the floating reaction videos - so please excuse the random thumbs up and balloons which seem to pop up at strange and slightly inappropriate times.
