    In this very special episode of Lucid Cafe, I celebrate the long-awaited release of my new book, Raven's Daughter: The Story Keeper. After years of dreaming, writing, and behind-the-scenes work, publication day is finally here.Joining me is my brilliant and hilarious friend Claire Wheeler, who helps me unpack the story, themes, and inspiration behind the book. This is the first time I'm speaking about Raven's Daughter out loud in any real depth, so it's part book talk, part soul share — with a few meandering moments along the way.We explore some of the book's deeper currents, including our complicated relationship with deception, the influence of artificial intelligence, and our growing disconnection from the natural world. Though it's a work of fiction, Raven's Daughter offers an imaginative lens for reflecting on the challenges of our time.In this conversation, Claire and Wendy discuss:The inspiration for Raven's DaughterDeceptionHow do you know what's true?Terror management theoryThe three realities described in the bookThe story's shamanic influenceFor more information about Raven's Daughter or to purchase a copy, visit Three Worlds Press Listen to some absurd and unhelpful nonsense Inside the Box with Claire and Wendy podcastBECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course Visit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  Lucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube  ★ Support this podcast ★

    In this episode, I sit down with the passionate Alanna Kaivalya to explore the lost — yet ever-present — power of the feminine. While modern women have more freedom than ever to shape our lives and careers, many of us still measure success through a masculine lens, chasing goals and strategies that don't reflect our deepest desires.This conversation is not about rejecting the masculine, but about reclaiming the feminine — the intuitive, connective, and compassionate energy that too often gets sidelined. Alanna, a bestselling author and spiritual teacher, shares insights from her new book The Way of the Satisfied Woman, a powerful guide for anyone seeking an alternative path to fulfillment.Together, we discuss how embracing the feminine can liberate us from burnout, invite greater ease, and reconnect us with what matters most: meaningful relationships, inner peace, and authentic expression.Alanna Kaivalya, PhD is a bestselling author, educator, thought leader, and expert on mythology, spirituality, psychology, and women's empowerment. The author of Sacred Sound and Myths of the Asanas, she earned a doctorate in mythological studies with an emphasis in depth psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and is the host of The Satisfied Woman podcast.In this conversation, Alanna discusses:What defines femininity Why connecting with the femininity is more important than everWhat models of satisfaction look like for the modern womanHow women don't realize how minimized and oppressed they areThe definition of "satisfaction"Her run-in with facebookMasculinity and feminityCurating your lifeFour keys to a satisfied lifeRelearning how to interactTrustThe habit of apologizingVisit Alanna's website Listen to The Satisfied Woman podcast________ Listen to some absurd and unhelpful nonsense Inside the Box with Claire and Wendy podcast BECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course Visit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  Lucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube  ★ Support this podcast ★

My guest Mordy Levine, who along with his coauthor, Lama Lhanang Rinpoche, recently released the book The Beginner's Guide to Karma: How to Live with Less Negativity and More Peace. In this episode Mordy explains the role that the universal law of cause and effect, or karma, plays in our lives and how to use this understanding to create a positive path forward.“Learning about karma will help us understand why we are experiencing this contentiousness so broadly and deeply,” write Rinpoche and Levine. “But more important, understanding karma will allow us reduce anger and division among ourselves, our community, our country, and the world.”Lama Lhanang Rinpoche and Mordy Levine are the authors of The Beginner's Guide to Karma. Lama Lhanang Rinpoche was born in the Amdo region of historic Tibet and received a traditional monastic education and later studied under several respected Tibetan lamas. Today, he teaches Vajrayana Buddhism at the Jigme Lingpa Center in San Diego, California. Mordy Levine is an entrepreneur, meditation teacher, and the president of the Jigme Lingpa Center. He also created the Meditation Pro Series, a meditation program designed to alleviate chronic health issues. In this episode, Mordy discusses:The definition of karmaWhat karma is and what it isn'tThe three consequencesLooking at motivationThe connection between action and thoughtMeditation as a tool for awarenessEscaping our own prisonsWhat led him to practice BuddhismManaging frustrationHeavy and light karmaSociopathy and psychopathyBuddha natureWhat care about karma? The Jigme Lingpa Center website Mordy's website ________BECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course Visit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  “Gifts and Tools to Explore and Celebrate the Unseen Worlds” - The Lucid Path BoutiqueLucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube   ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode we talk about communication and intimacy, the nature of soul statements and his work as a love coach. Corey suggests that “the goal is not to ‘fix' any given interaction. It's about living in an alive, embodied present.”After experiencing a spiritual soul-awakening, Corey was inspired to become a tantra teacher; and in 2012, he began his work as a relationship and intimacy coach.

Happy to report that he was up for it!Daryl Gregory's novels and short stories have been translated into a dozen languages and have won multiple awards, including the World Fantasy and Shirley Jackson awards, and have been nominated for the Hugo, Nebula, Edgar, Locus, Lambda, and Sturgeon awards. His latest books are the novel Revelator (Knopf) and the novella The Album of Dr. Moreau (tor.com).
