Episode 22 - WHAT HOME IS Part 2

Welcome to another episode of the Red Podcast. 
Over the summer, I’ve become more clear that the purpose of this podcast is to amplify an intimacy, a connection, that brings us into contact with our humanity and our divinity. 
I’m clear that the more we root into our humanity, we open ourselves to our divine presence. 
So, today, join me, from England, as I take you on another intimate musing about the nature of home, and the journey of becoming more fully human, or anthropos. 
During my travels this summer, I’ve been opened up. I’ve been less busy, more emptied. Because of this, I’ve found my way back to something that feels simple and quintessential within me. 
It’s humorous, tender, and oh, so very human. 
Come sit with me awhile as I muse on how deeply I find myself in the subtle nuances of this land and the people that I grew up with—we’ll even visit my mum’s grave together. 
Here’s some of what Elayne Kalila explores in this episode: 
Visit my mum’s grave in England, within the cemetery where I used to play as a kid
The liminal space where life & death communes with one another
Musings on the sacred & the profane
What home really is—this is such a profound question
 
 
 

Episode 21 - BRIDGE BETWEEN WORLDS

Bridge Between Worlds—With Christine Gutierrez
 
Join Elayne Kalila and Christine Gutierrez as they dive into what it means to be a bridge between the worlds.
Christine and Elayne Kalila are clinically trained psychotherapists and they both bring women together in deeply transformational spaces that draw from the priestess and shamanic worlds of healing. 
During this beautiful conversation, they talk about the need to honor the strength of clinical training alongside intuitive, instinctual gifts that we all carry. 
They also shared how important it is to draw from our personal lineages which are accessed through inner knowing and embodied practice.
Here’s some of what they explore in this episode: 
What it means to draw healing traditions from your own indigeneity & cultural/spiritual roots
Why we need training where we can explore the feminine healing arts embedded within us
