In episode two of metamorphosis we dive further into the seven stages beginning with the catalyzing event and the release of identity and ego death which can for many be the most difficult stages of the metamorphosis. Ultimately, there is a maturation of the personality and the expression of the ego that are seeking to come through for us, humans who go through metamorphosis. Here I share with you insights that will hopefully provide Grace in the journey of the ego, death and release of outdated identities.

After a four year hiatus from the Podcast , we’re going to be launching it with a new name and a new message in 2025. In the meantime, here is a bridge series straight from the heart. It is real and raw and it is called metamorphosis.

Metamorphosis is a process of the form changing completely from what has been to something entirely new. All you have to do is to look at our world to see this is what we are collectively going through and perhaps you are also going through this in your own life, as I know myself and many members of our community are. in the first session here I will share with you. The seven stages of metamorphosis for us humans that I have so far discovered I invite you to come along this journey with me.

I recently had the privilege to sit down with Marianne to explore the profound opportunity we women have at this time to truly RISE. One of the things that came up was the opportunity for so many women to step out of little girl mode and into empowered women mode.
