“When humanity loses connection—to the Earth, to each other—we become isolated.
And isolated people build shells.
And shells bouncing off other shells… create chaos.”
These words from Arrowhawk (Cherokee elder, healer, and beloved mentor) have been echoing in my body.
This conversation isn’t about bypassing what’s happening in the world, it’s about naming the root of so much of what we’re witnessing: disconnection—from the Earth, from our shared humanity, from the divine.
And it’s about remembering another way.
In this episode of The Activate Change Podcast, we talk about:
✨Ceremony as medicine (both formal ceremonies and small daily rituals)
✨Why disconnection fuels chaos—and connection heals
✨Supporting healers and helpers so they don’t burn out
✨Joy, humor, and laughter as sacred medicine
✨Why worthiness isn’t something you need to earn
✨And how freedom can be chosen from the inside, even when the outer world feels dominated by fear
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, numb, angry, or cracked open by the state of the world…
May this conversation offer you grounding, perspective, and a place to land.
