Back at my favourite tree in Leeds after a hard winter of with grief, change and travel, I’d like to introduce you to a new inner figure in my life: a rhythmic, embodied, non-verbal part of the psyche that has something to teach us about moving with life’s natural tempo.
Sparked by a dream about drums, rhythm and an instinctive masculine presence, this episode explores what it might mean to be held by something greater than yourself - nature, seasonality, the body, time, instinct, spirit, the greater force of life itself. When words, strategies and self-help tools stop working, what remains? What if there’s a deeper beat still going on in and around you?
Join me as I explore the comfort of surrendering to larger cycles, while still participating in them. I’ll reflect on grief, timing, intuition, agency, masculine psyche, improvisation, and the possibility that some parts of us already know when to move closer, when to step back, when to rest, and when to trust what unfolds.
This is an episode about rhythm, mystery, instinct, support, and the spiritual relief of realising you don’t live life alone.
