I'm joined by one of my favorite spiritual teachers, Mark Nepo, for a conversation that will change how you relate to fear, pain, and your own journey. We explore how to keep your heart open when life gets hard, why we must learn to "blossom and not strive," and the profound truth that we all belong to each other. If you're longing to live a more porous, courageous, and authentic life, this episode is a deep drink of soul medicine.   TIMESTAMPED OVERVIEW   00:00 Introduction to the Angel Reiki School 03:18 Julie Introduces the Episode and Guest Mark Nepo 04:02 Discussing Creativity in the Second Half of Life 07:53 The Shift from Being Driven to Being Drawn 10:38 The Purpose of Memory and Dream 13:45 Women's Retreat Invitation 16:30 Reframing Energy Shifts and Archetypes 17:41 Is Life Itself God?
