The Passion And Soul Podcast by Lee Harrington

PS108 - Healing, Gender, and Spirit with Tommie StarChild

Spirit worker, witch, artist, and educator Tommie StarChild joins Lee for a previously unpublished podcast. Recorded at the end of 2017, StarChild shares their life journey that led to their call to authenticity, a path that goes beyond the boxes that spiritual and sexual communities find themselves locked in. Exploring “ecstatic bliss and ecstatic fear,” they look at the nature of our inner spirit, and how self-awareness allows for an exploration of gender that lay beyond the form we are given at birth – including the revelation of our inherit inner fruit and inner/outer Jell-O essence. Dive in deep and be inspired in this playful, thought-provoking, and intimate opportunity for reflection and learning alike. **   Passion And Soul Podcast:Passion And Soul Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/passionandsoul iTunes Subscription: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/passion-soul-podcast-by-lee/id840372122RSS Feed: http://passionandsoul.libsyn.com/rssPast MP3 files: http://passionandsoul.libsyn.comPassionAndSoul Audio Page: http://passionandsoul.com/audioStitcher:http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/erotic-awakening-podcast/passion-and-soul Contact Tommie StarChild: Website: http://www.myauthenticself.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/tommie.starchildInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/myauthenticselfmagic/  Resources and Information Discussed:Feri Tradition Resources: http://www.feritradition.comFeri Tradition Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feri_TraditionOrion Foxwood in the House of Brigh Faery Seership institute: http://www.orionfoxwood.com/about.htmlUniversity of Santa Monica – Spiritual Psychology: https://www.universityofsantamonica.eduQuartzite Arizona Gem and Mineral Shows: https://www.gemsociety.org/article/view-quartzsite-gem-shows/What is Reiki?: https://www.reiki.org/faq/whatisreiki.htmlYezidi Religious Tradition: http://www.yeziditruth.org/yezidi_religious_traditionMelek Ta’us Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melek_Taus Iron Pentacle: http://faerywolf.com/iron-pentacle/ Lee Harrington Contact Information:http://www.PassionAndSoul.comhttps://www.patreon.com/passionandsoulhttp://www.FetLife.com/passionandsoulhttp://twitter.com/#!/PassionAndSoulhttps://www.facebook.com/lee.harringon Support the Passion And Soul Podcast – Join our Patreon today!https://www.patreon.com/passionandsoul
