Hey all, it's me, Amber. I just felt so compelled to share this experience I had yesterday and realize that's not really

something that I could just fit into an intro and it's been a while since I've done a full episode that's just me talking and this is going to be rambling and it's not one of those stories that ties itself up into a perfect bow at the end, as we've talked about before on this show, most recently with Tokopah.

It's very rare that our lived stories are like the story arcs in the movies and books and stuff that we're used to, but this synchronicity, synchronous, serendipitous story,

I'm just one story either, of course, there's just like so much to it but it just I really felt like this is one to share and so here I am in my workroom after getting Nixi down to sleep at 9 p.m. and I am usually in the bath getting

And when I started this podcast, I thought I would talk a lot more about it, and I still will, I think.

I think I would, I've always had the vision of telling the whole story in a podcast episode.

So I will probably do that.

Let me know if you'd like me to.

It's on my blog too at mythic medicine dot love. But she was my best friend. She was my favorite person, my biggest supporter. She was just the most amazing wonderful mother a

person could ask for. The most amazing wonderful person like everyone loved her so much. She had so many

friends so many friends. She just radiated goodness and love. She was love. I was so lucky.

So there's that piece to this story.

And if you listen to the most recent episode with Asia Suler or to the first time I interviewed Asia

back in episode four. I had this really incredible experience doing a guided meditation that Asia offers through

her online course,

intuitive plant medicine.

And she offered this very meditation
