In this episode of The Fairy Podcast, Winslow Vail is joined by her beloved mentor, Aleya Dao, founder of Seven Cups of Consciousness, for a heartfelt conversation about keeping the door of light open as we grow up. Together, they explore how children can stay connected to magic, feel safe in their sensitivity, and use dreamtime as a place of guidance rather than fear. Aleya also shares the true story of how fairies and nature spirits helped guide her missing dog, Kit, safely home through dreamtime.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• Why many adults forget magic, and how children don’t have to
• Choosing which “doors” and realms feel safe, supportive, and loving
• Using dreamtime to receive guidance and help, including a real-life fairy story
• How setting gentle bedtime intentions can reduce nightmares
• Building relationships with fairies and nature spirits
• Why witnessing joy and light strengthens connection
• How laughter travels easily between realms
• Trusting your inner knowing without carrying responsibility for others

This episode is for sensitive kids, parents, and anyone who wants to stay calm, connected, and rooted in wonder, while keeping both feet on the ground.

Take a breath, open the doors of love and light, and let the fairies walk with you.
