144: Honoring Vastness: Whales, Bees, and the Process of Becoming
Manage episode 438923351 series 3591753
In this solo episode, I discuss the importance of collective connection, working through a project's intense phases, and the wisdom shared by whales and bees.
Following up on last month’s solo episode about being in the process of becoming, I’m now in the last big push of my book project, deep in the editing and writing. I share what’s felt extra challenging during this final phase, and how these lessons can apply across our lives, especially when we are new at something or close to completing a project.
I return to the subject of whales in captivity as a metaphor for women within patriarchy and the lessons society is learning about why keeping whales in captivity and subjugating feminine power does not work. By rewriting the mother code, we can remember the possibilities of opening ourselves up to our vastness.
I’m so grateful to be working from Ireland and share the importance of boundaries while getting through this final project stretch, especially in a new space. One special place I’ve had the opportunity to visit while here has been the bee beds. Their wisdom contains so many cosmic codes, the embodiment of feminine and masculine, and healing energies. I so genuinely hope we can get back to a place of connection, not only with whales and bees but all of life.
