Episode 52: Arcanum with a Crossover

Well, it's been nearly a pandemic since last we chatted.  But huzzah!  It is happening!  It's a short episode because I'm exploring something new and weird.  This discussion on Arcanum (what is Arcanum?  well, listen and learn and discover that it's nothing new, but perhaps conveniently labelled) was not only recorded for here, as audio, but also livestreamed on YouTube! 

That's right, if you're inclined you can watch me babble instead of just listening to it.  And yeah, it's a rough episode because being watched is so much stranger than just being listened to.

Much love, fellow seekers.

Blessings of the wyrd and wyld to you.

Violet.

Episode 51: Communicating, Accepting, Witnessing

Greetings and salutations, to one and to all,

You could say that this episode is a part 2 to episode 49, expanding into some specifics around places to employ that REAL connected communication.  But since it was planned first, is it really part 2?  It's a more tangential relationship, I think, though still around communication.

We discuss 3 invitations/challenges on communication:

1) accepting apologies

2) letting people be in a difficult space, holding space for them and reflecting

3) witnessing people as they truly are

Good times ending with difficult times. 

With love, service, and the blessings of the deep and wild

Episode 49: REAL Connected Communication

Greetings and salutations, my friends,

This episode is ALL about communication, REAL connected communication to be exact.  R(espectful)E(xperiential)A(uthentic)L(oving) connected communication.  What does that mean, how does it work, a slight commentary on two common less-than-productive responses (the martyr and the demon), and an honouring of the courage it takes to do it.

Blessings of the deep and wild to you,
Violet, the Abysmal Witch
