In this conversation, Elizabeth and Elisha sit down with Chris-Anne Connolly, creator of the Light Seer's Tarot and other beloved decks, for a wide-ranging, deeply human discussion about creativity, intuition, and what it means to stay connected in an increasingly digital world.

They explore Chris-Anne's journey from secret tarot reader to globally recognized creator, including the early days of making decks in private and navigating visibility, validation, and creative identity online.

The conversation moves into the tension many of us feel right now: living in a hyper-connected, AI-driven world while craving something slower, more tactile, and more real. Chris-Anne shares how her current analog project, hand-crafted and mailed experiences, is bringing her back to a sense of wonder and play.

Together, they unpack:

• The role of intuition in tarot and why you don't need to "know everything" to begin

• The creative cost of holding back your voice

• Social media as both connection and distortion

• The difference between surviving alone and actually thriving in community

• Beauty standards, control systems, and the shifting cultural pendulum

• Why reclaiming joy might be more radical than self-optimization

Chris-Anne also shares her perspective on AI as an artist whose work has been used to train it, and how she's reframed that experience in a way that aligns with her values.

The episode closes with a powerful reminder: if we could stop questioning joy and allow ourselves to fully experience it, we might move through this moment faster than we think.

In this episode, Elizabeth and Elisha unpack what they're calling "girl rage" — the wave of awakening happening for so many women right now as they begin to recognize the deeper realities of power, patriarchy, and systemic harm.

But this isn't just about rage.
It's about what comes after.

Because waking up doesn't automatically make you effective.
And how you arrive in these conversations matters more than most people realize.

In this episode

• What "girl rage" actually is — and why it's surfacing now

• The emotional whiplash of awakening to systemic truth

• Why new awareness can come with ego, shame, or overwhelm

• The difference between participation vs performative leadership

• Why we don't need more "experts" — we need self-leadership

• How shame slows movements and keeps people stuck

• The trap of centering your feelings instead of the work

• Systemic vs personal thinking (and why it changes everything)

• The concept of triage — where your energy actually matters most

• Why focusing on the right problems is more important than being right

• How to engage without collapsing, overperforming, or derailing progress

• Letting go of needing everyone to wake up

At the core of this conversation is a shift in perspective:

This isn't personal. It's systemic.

And once you see that, the question becomes:

Where is your energy actually useful?

Because movements don't stall from lack of awareness.

They stall from lack of focus, containment, and effective action.

This episode is a call to:.

• stop centering your own emotional process in collective spaces

• stop waiting for everyone else to catch up

• and start participating in ways that actually move things forward

It's also an invitation to bring more:

humility, curiosity, and discernment

into conversations that are often fueled by urgency, anger, and overwhelm.

Because real change doesn't come from who's the loudest.

It comes from who's willing to show up, focus, and do the work.

What does it actually mean to be spiritual?

Because if social media is the reference point, spirituality looks like perfect morning rituals, curated retreats, flowing dresses, calm voices, and people who appear completely unbothered by the world.

But real spirituality might look more like:

• yelling at someone for littering

• crying for two weeks straight

• crashing out on Verizon customer service

• taking a walk, folding laundry, and trying to stay human in chaotic times

In this episode, Elizabeth and Elisha unpack the myth of spiritual perfection and the performative narratives surrounding enlightenment, healing, and "being evolved."

They talk about why spirituality that disconnects you from your body, your anger, or your humanity can actually become its own form of ego.

In this conversation

• Why the myth of transcendence is collapsing

• Performative spirituality and the aesthetics of "being healed"

• The fantasy that healing removes irritation or anger

• Why being bothered by injustice is not unspiritual

• The danger of spiritual bypassing in politics and culture

• Groupthink, activism, and emotional timing

• Reclaiming disruption as a sacred response

• The difference between "being a Karen" and protecting something sacred

• Why embodiment matters more than enlightenment

• Letting yourself be human instead of spiritually perfect

They also explore a deeper question:

What if the real spiritual work is simply showing up for life?

Not transcending it.

Not escaping it.

Not performing it.

Just living it.

Which means being messy, emotional, feisty, grieving, and occasionally yelling at someone who throws trash out their car window.

Because sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is care enough to say something.

And remember:

Everybody poops.
