He returned to his hometown of Cincinnati to establish and self-finance its first green general store, where he managed day-to-day operations while being the face of the business. During this time, he began a career in freelancing as a published author and communications consultant, which continues to do this day. After he closed Park + Vine, he coordinated social media marketing and events for a regional trails nonprofit organization.

Sue sits down with Talia Migliaccio, an interdisciplinary artist working with many mediums. She is globally known for her hand-poked tattoo work. She loves working across mediums as well, drawing, ceramics, photography, jewelry and design. We dig deep into the Scorpionic realms of consciousness intimately discussing the creation process of ALL THINGS. Talia opens up her inner realms of reflection and emotion for us to sit with. Clearly presenting tactful practices around how to become aware of when we are "othering" or separating from source to avoid a solution oriented mindset followed up by right action. Critical discourse is important, but not the final step of integration. Grief, suffering and letting go are foundational acts that knit community together, and we discuss the structure of more regenerative practices and community organization that needs to emerge. Talia designed the cover of Sue's book Transitory Nature, and through this creation process together they formed a collaborative relationship. The conversation trends into the realms of "social media" as a consciousness shaping vehicle for late stage capitalism and what does it really mean to create nowadays? And how much does the public venue we share our work within affect the ways we intimately create ART and seek PURPOSE.

Ok let's actually go there, let's talk about the backhanded misogyny of the Polarity Movement. It is also labeled "embodiment, yogic intimacy, relationship coaching or sexual polarity". You will see coaches in this space often term things Masculine/Feminine Energetics. Dan and I get pretty heated in this conversation, pulling direct quotes from talks given by polarity coaches and experts. We discuss cissexim, gender essentialism, and the hierarchical need to "gender" everything, and how that truly keeps the human consciousness in a cage of labels. We touch on Transitory Nature's Chapter three, Body as Vehicle, and the new age spiritual platitudinal myths around "dual identity" "Wild Woman" "Sensitive Men", exploring the implicit bias that is the subtext of the polarity movement.

Sue and Dan get VERY PERSONAL in this episode. We discuss the Masculine/Feminine Binary, the Maiden/Mother Binary, gender roles and power dynamics in relationships when deciding to have children or not have children. We know this is a triggering topic, discussing identity and being able to hold multiple choices with respect in your embodiment. We both open our hearts about pressures from family, society, and previous partners about "having kids" and ways we coped with that solo and together. This transparent conversation is about how to create more holistic and safe spaces about making choices that are against the grain of status-quo. Particularly at the intersection of creation, family units, sexualitity, gender expression and power dynamics; it can get messy and we are not claiming to have all of the answers.

This is an Ep. you might listen back to several times exploring transits, eclipses and all 12 signs of the zodiac and the planetary currents for the rest of 2021. Enjoy! HAPPY CANCER NEW MOON! About Bess: "As a fierce, fiery youth (Aries stellium + Leo Moon), I spent the time I wasn't dancing in leopard print leotards or running around my neighborhood shirtless, speaking about all things mystical into my tape recorder for my closet cosmic radio show, and writing what I called “lipstick horoscopes” for an imaginary trapper keeper-bound mag called Teen Talk. I'd first discovered the mystical language of archetypes at age 10, in the glossy, full-color pages of DK's classic Parkers' Astrology volume. These pages detailed not only each zodiac sign's energetic and psychological components, but where you could find these energies in the material world. I reveled in my Aries Sun sign and its associations with everything from the pungency of cayenne pepper to the rough and ready streets of Marseilles, France. As I completed a PhD and finished up the final throes of my Saturn Return, everything came undone. In the words of my beloved tarot teacher, Lindsay Mack, it was a “sub-basement Tower moment.” Broken down and bottomed out, I nearly left the planet. And in that pitch black of 2013-2014, the stars were my headlamp. I returned to the mystical world and its cavernous capacity to beckon us closer to our complete carnality, as I reckoned with what lived inside of me. I learned to look it in the eye, to lick its skin, and to love it, no matter the cost. My work bloomed into everything from tarot dance classes to birth chart fragrance making. I slowly crawled back up to the surface of my own existence and built a career out of my belief that star-kissed synesthesia can bring us back to the selves we already are and are always becoming, as close and vital as a makeup case or dinner plate. I love with ferocity and tenderness and I can't stop, won't stop. I cry easily and hard. I'm scared of flying and don't ever want to die." + Bess Matassa Books: http://thestarparlor.com/books http://thestarparlor.com/services Find Sue & Dan here: https://www.suehunt.com/ Shop Live Lighty: https://www.suehunt.com/shop --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rhizomagazine/support

Sue sits down with Mishka after reading two of his seven books to talk about life, ultra running, big ideas and have a down to earth conversation. A bit about Mishka, his memoir, and his long history with addiction and getting sober cold turkey. Mishka Shubaly received the Dean's Fellowship at Columbia University for graduate study in Fiction. His six Kindle Singles for Amazon have all been bestsellers. His first full-length memoir, "I Swear I'll Make It Up to You: a life on the low road" was published in 2016 by PublicAffairs. He teaches writing at the Yale Writers Conference. Mishka is the voice in his 6 audio books, kindle singles and we highly recommend you check them out! Real, raw, skillful writing pulls you into the heart of many human emotions and the layered human experience. Find his amazing writing here: http://www.mishkashubaly.com/writing.html Maybe catch him on stage for some comedy for music! http://www.mishkashubaly.com/comedy.html http://www.mishkashubaly.com/tour.html After receiving an expensive MFA in Fiction from Columbia University, Mishka Shubaly promptly realized he was more interested in playing music in dive bars than writing. He lived out of a Toyota minivan for a year, touring non-stop, and shared the stage with artists like The Strokes, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and The Decemberists among others. He's become a cult favorite, opening nationally for comedy iconoclast Doug Stanhope, penning the soundtrack for The Unbookables documentary, and headlining the Altercation Punk Comedy Tour. Adrian Grenier played drums for a new single and Shubaly's most recent record “Coward's Path” has won praise from Johnny Depp and Joe Perry. Even in the heart of envisioning gut wrenching scenes from his books, I caught myself laughing out loud alone as I read along. Perfectly capturing the heart of suffering with tell it like it is kinda voice. Enjoy this Ep. Sue loved sitting down with Mishka for an hour to just dive right in.

With TRANSITORY NATURE, radical Buddhist and spiritual guide Sue Hunt walks readers through a nine-month Consciousness Design Process to dismantle Binary Worldview and challenge existing hierarchies of power. From our interactions with our inner selves, to how we interface with both the public sphere and our own intergenerational inheritance and cultural programming, Hunt shows how liberation lies in stepping into the contemplative vision of self and surrounding reality which she terms “non-binary worldview.”Binary Worldview—the thinking that everything we encounter is either “this” or “that”—is the root cause of so much suffering, oppression, and inner and outer conflict in our world. Often, the polarization we see in the wider social structure is a projection of the same binaried schisms that live within each of us. Now, combining elements of Buddhist and yogic philosophy with a step-by-step constructive method, Hunt invites us to fully embody the both/and mentality that is the foundation of a more ethical life. In this ultra-progressive moment, we are all being tasked with finding new ways of being and living together. This is evident in changes to how we communicate, in our relationships, and in shifting ideas about community wellness. In tandem with the rising chorus of voices challenging the status quo, and with rigorous attention and loving care, TRANSITORY NATURE offers up a new non-binary vernacular to describe where we are headed—as conscious individuals who are walking this path together. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sue Hunt is a radical Buddhist and has been sharing public teachings on spirituality, living ethics, and the intersectionality of being human, for the past 15 years, all over the US and overseas.
