Our conversation with Crystal Dawn Morris takes us on a captivating journey through her experiences with shamanism, midwifery, and spiritual awakening. Crystal shares her story of a spiritual awakening at 16, which led her to become a midwife. This role served as a bridge between worlds, allowing her to assist in births and engage with women's fears and empowerment during pregnancy. Her transition from midwifery to shamanic practice involved studying with influential teachers like Michael Harner and participating in diverse spiritual traditions. A Kundalini awakening further deepened her spiritual connection, guiding her to explore teachings that blend shamanism and feminism, eventually leading her to Tantra as a new spiritual direction. Crystal emphasizes the spiritual awakening inherent in birthing experiences and the importance of trusting the body's wisdom, while also reflecting on the challenges within modern midwifery and the broader health care system. As we explore leadership, Crystal discusses how life experiences can open doors to mystical awakenings, guiding one's authentic self in leadership roles. She highlights the natural emergence of leadership when guided by spirit and addresses modern challenges such as integrity and power dynamics. Crystal advocates for soul-centered leadership, emphasizing responsibility, accountability, and alignment with personal values and integrity. Reflecting on her own life journey, she speaks to the vitality of embracing life beyond youth, savoring life, maintaining wonder, and embracing transitions authentically. Crystal expresses her wish for leaders to inspire joy, simplicity, and ease, hoping society finds more pathways into conscious awareness in leadership.
