Our fourth season begins with a celebration and embrace of the upcoming Autumnal Equinox. We are so excited to present this episode that examines the history, lore and meaning behind this radiant season of harvest and gratitude.

It is also a pleasure to be joined by Heather Porter of the Animisma podcast who shares a profound and heart-felt meditation on the power of transformation that is a result of letting go-both in nature and our own lives.

Heather is a writer, storyteller, and advisor. She's been called an empath, a sensitive compass of compassion, and a 'Rosetta Stone' for the soul and was led to her work through a lifetime of translating the intersections of the ecological, spiritual, and scientific for others. Rooted in her Celtic ancestry, those who lived closely to the land, waters, and seasons, she lives as an animist and her work contemplates the myriad aspects of a sovereign life, seeking to reveal the wonders of the natural and the etheric in service of connection, reverence, and deep, honorable communion.

Spirit, grace and a deep, unyielding love of the Earth is at the heart of all she does. She has undertaken depth studies in animistic, shamanic, Celtic, and Eastern spiritual practices and holds a Bachelor of Environmental Science with Honors and a Master of Environmental Law.
