In this profound episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily reunites with her beloved friend Sarah Jenks, ordained priestess, mother, and founder of the 13 Moon Mystery School, for a conversation that will forever change how you relate to your pain, your shadows, and your power.
Sarah opens up about her core wound of wanting to be liked and accepted, and how everything in her lifeâbusiness, marriage, friendshipsâstarted crumbling as she approached her priestess ordination. Instead of trying to fix or bypass these patterns, she learned to descend into what we call the "sacred sewer" to meet the parts of herself she thought were unlovable.
In This Episode, We Explore: âš How to work with internal darkness (micro) and world pain (macro) simultaneously âš Why suffering is actually an avoidance of going all the way into the darkness âš The revolutionary practice of creating ceremony around your shadows âš How to sit with shame and rage until they alchemize into creative power âš The suppressed history of Mary Magdalene as Christ's equal and initiator âš Why the removal of the Divine Feminine was psychological warfare âš How your capacity for darkness directly expands your capacity for joy
Sarah demonstrates her process for descending into the depths, feeling everything fully, and allowing the natural alchemy that happens when we stop fighting our feelings and start dancing with them. We explore how this work isn't just personal healing, it's essential preparation for serving the world during these intense times.
This conversation bridges ancient feminine wisdom with practical shadow work, showing how the compost of our pain becomes the fertile ground for our greatest gifts.
