Episode Description

In this powerful episode, we remember the mythic Eve, the power of sacred disobedience, the role of creative transgression, and the lifelong journey of sovereignty. Together, we reflect on what it means to shed obedience, reclaim the sacred feminine, and remember ourselves as our own truest source of knowing.
