We're back from winter break and diving straight into the deep end.

This episode is part sermon, part group chat, part audio spell for staying human. Elizabeth and Elisha get honest about what it means to live — not perform — spiritual maturity when everything feels like too much. They talk about grieving and giggling, Care Bear stares and collective screams, and what it takes to stay open when the world keeps trying to close you.

Inside:

• The paradox of gratitude and devastation

• Why "saying what's true" is the highest vibrational spell

• Law of Attraction burnout and the sacred act of naming reality

• Complaining as catharsis, not collapse

• Fox medicine, trickster energy, and reclaiming shapeshifting

• The soft season: fierce women learning to say "I'm just a baby"

• What happens when you stop trying to timeline your way out of the mystery"

Plus: Elisha talks about her return to Pennsylvania, Elizabeth shares her evolving appetite for myth and relational cosmology, and both reflect on how creative foolishness is sometimes the most healing thing we have.

If you've been feeling overcooked by the world and under-resourced by the usual "spiritual tools," this one's for you.

In this deeply nourishing conversation, the Aunties are joined by Michelle Cassandra Johnson— author, grief-tender, activist, and longtime guide in collective healing.

Together, they weave a wide-ranging and intimate dialogue on grief as a sacred practice, the wisdom of honeybees and superorganisms, reimagining leadership beyond ego and hierarchy, and what it means to live, serve, and belong in a fractured world.

This episode touches on ancestral memory, collective responsibility, nervous system truth, and why healing was never meant to be an individual endeavor. Michelle shares insights from her book Wisdom of the Hive, reflections on loss and aging, and an ancient practice called Telling the Bees — a ritual of sharing both sorrow and joy with the more-than-human world.

If you're navigating grief, longing for deeper community, questioning the systems we've inherited, or searching for hope that feels real (not performative), this conversation offers a steady, honest place to land.

Come listen for the bees, stay for the belonging.

This episode starts with listener questions — and unfolds into a layered, candid conversation about intuition, discernment, power, and the spiritual myths many of us have quietly outgrown.

Elizabeth and Elisha respond to questions about how intuition actually works in real life: how you learn when to speak, when to stay quiet, and how to tell the difference between true guidance, fear, pattern recognition, and the ever-busy predictor mind. Along the way, they explore why urgency is rarely intuitive, how the need to be right distorts discernment, and why intuition was never meant to override someone else's agency.

From there, the conversation widens — touching on predictions, astrology fatigue, embodiment, power dynamics in spiritual spaces, business and money myths, and the pressure to be palatable, enlightened, or "doing it right."

As usual, nothing is packaged neatly — and that's the point. This episode is less about answers and more about turning back toward your own authority, your own body, and your own lived wisdom.

Enjoy!
