Summary

It's time we came back to Earth, and I can think of no one better to get us grounded than this week's guest: author, spiritual guide, and Earth advocate, Dr. Erin Yu-Juin McMorrow. 

I was highly charged after devouring Erin's book, Grounded, which explores the interconnectedness between the natural world and humanity. We can see nature’s history imprinted in the soil and how toxic expressions of masculinity (defined by Erin as patriarchy) rip through the natural Earth – which is an embodiment of the sacred feminine through Erin's lens. 

So how do we find roots when the soil is literally being ripped from under our feet? 

On the rational side of things, we can return to regenerative farming practices, start composting, and learn from our fungi friends. But things really get interesting when we dive into the spiritual, sacred potential in Earth and see how it relates to the divine feminine, and see how sex, soul, and soil are, in many ways, one and the same.

1:15:33 — The Way Out of Patriarchy 

  • The collective pain body
  • The masculine expression of ego
  • Conquering cultural marxism to come back to oneness
  • The Goddess Archetype
  • Immersing yourself in natural things
