E236 - What Winter Knows // Tending to Endings with the Wilder Kin

What does it mean to winter - deeply, wisely, and together?   In this episode, we explore the idea of wintering in community - how we might not only survive the cold seasons of our lives, but move through them together.  The Wilder Kin are a collective of five women holding space for seasonal, regenerative ways of being together in nature. Together they created Wintering - a deep invitation to slow down, reflect, and reweave community through the wisdom of the dark months. There’s something powerful that happens when we slow down, not in isolation, but in connection. When we make room for rest, reflection, and the kind of honest tending that can only happen in darker times. We talk about:  :: How important it is to support ourselves and each other - not just when things are easy, but when everything feels uncertain or chaotic  :: Personal winter stories and reflections about the warmth that can still be found in winter through shared meals, songs by candlelight, the quiet noticing of tiny shifts :: What becomes possible when we winter together :: How we can build our capacity to be with the endings - personal, collective, systemic :: What it means to compost the old, to let things fall, and to trust in what’s becoming   This is an invitation to be with the seasons and to remember that even in winter, you are not alone.

E235 - TIMELESS // 'How To Build a Post-capitalist Prayer?' with Alnoor Ladha

How are we shaped by the world around us and what is our role in shaping it?   Amisha is honored to walk with Alnoor Ladha in this transformative episode that blends the personal and political, the spiritual and systemic. Alnoor has spent years at the intersection of activism, mysticism, and storytelling - working to reimagine how we relate to power, care, and community. In this episode we get into all kinds of things: taking real responsibility (like, the kind that doesn’t burn you out), how our inner healing connects to outer systems, grounded spiritual practice as a form of resistance, what post-capitalism could actually feel like in the body, and how deprogramming scarcity can open us up to deeper connection and joy. We talk about: :: Power, entitlement, and victimhood - not as buzzwords, but as energies we carry and can transform :: Why separating the spiritual from the political just doesn’t make sense anymore :: Living your values without needing to be perfect :: How systems like capitalism got made - and why we can unmake them :: What becomes possible when we choose compassion over competition, and care over control This one’s for anyone who feels the overwhelm of the world and still believes something else is possible. Alnoor offers a grounded, tender invitation to look at what’s happening globally as a mirror of what’s going on in our relationships, our bodies, and our everyday choices. We hope this conversation lands in your chest, loosens some old stories, and opens up space for something more generous, more collective, and way more alive.
