Riffin w/ my Bestie on Going to Church, Church Hurt, Religion, Spirituality & Beyond

In this episode I'm joined by my very wise & beautiful friend, the one & only ~ Alyssa Kuzins! This is not an "interview" it's more like two besties sitting together with a cup of tea, diving deep into a vortex of conversation & exploring what's been on our hearts & minds. If you've been following us on Instagram you might have noticed that we've been going to a nondenominational Christian church for the past month…& if you thought that seemed kinda out of left field, let me tell ya, we did too! If you don't already know us or our work, we are both very spiritual, wild & free, empowered, witchy women, which is why this decision might have some of you scratching your heads in wonder. In this episode we discuss our why, our experience & we unpack a lot of questions, realizations & findings that we've had on our church-going journey. Buckle up - it's gonna be a wild ride! Some topics of conversation in today's episode: Why we started going to Seacoast Church & what our experience has been Our religious background growing up & why we left the church Exploring "Church Hurt" & the dark side of church Religion & spirituality The power of being curious & living a spirit led life The patriarchal nature of the Bible & church Purpose vs. divine assignments Why shaking your ass & going to church is not a contradiction Sex The importance of getting uncomfortable, questioning our preconceived ideas/beliefs & we're ASKING questions Dropping the labels Freedom & liberation Living with faith & purpose Making sovereign choices for yourself Feeling nourished, inspired & fed by church Why proselytizing is gross energy Your purpose is to bring God into all of your assignments and so much more! _________________________________ Contact Alyssa: Alyssa's Instagram Alyssa's Website Sign up & learn more about Body Art _________________________________ Contact Cortney: Cortney's Instagram Unique Way Instagram Cortney's Website Cortney's Weekly Newsletter _________________________________ Have you tried Botanic Tonics "Feel Free" yet?!

The Uncomfortable Luxury of Changing Your Mind w/ Cortney Ostrosky

In this solo episode I share & expand on a brilliant blog post called "13 Life Learnings by Maria Popova". 13 Life Learnings by Maria Popova: Allow yourself the uncomfortable luxury of changing your mind. Do nothing for prestige or status or money or approval alone. Be generous. Be generous with your time and your resources and with giving credit and, especially, with your words. Build pockets of stillness into your life. And thoughts on the "cult of productivity". When people tell you who they are, Maya Angelou famously advised, believe them. Just as important, however, when people try to tell you who you are, don't believe them. Presence is far more intricate and rewarding an art than productivity Expect anything worthwhile to take a long time. Seek out what magnifies your spirit. Don't be afraid to be an idealist. Don't just resist cynicism — fight it actively. Question your maps and models of the universe, both inner and outer, and continually test them against the raw input of reality. There are infinitely many kinds of beautiful lives. In any bond of depth and significance, forgive, forgive, forgive. And then forgive again.
