art, creativity and the power of ritual & ceremony with Vondove

If you have been seeking or are interested in an alternative, conscious social media platform, then this is an episode for you! Chloe is the minx and face behind The Mojo Mecca; a conscious, creative and alternative Media Hub. She has just released her brand new App called The Mojo Mecca which is a creative hub for those seeking an alternative platform away from the algorithms, censored, nastiness of Instagram and other platforms. It's a place to freely express, share, create and connect with a like minded community of dreamers, weavers, creators and artists. It is a space for personal healing and transformation. It is incredibly beautiful and we dive into the birth of this incredible App and her desire, process and intention of bringing it forth into the world. We also speak about the importance of listening to our intuition and heart in creativity and business. Imposter syndrome, redefining our relationship to social media, the fine line between finding inspiration and mindless scrolling, and much more.  The incredible app is already being received so warmly by thousands of people around the world and I know it will only continue to grow.

In this solo episode, I bring to light some of the realisations I've had around my wellbeing and my relationship to my work; both outer and inner.  And how I feel we are collectively shifting from a very masculine dominated outward-work mentality into a more feminine, emotional, intuitive inward-work flow.  A restructuring of how we look after ourselves, whats important and a prioritising of the inner work and healing.  A realising that the inner work is the most important work!  And that through this process of inward focusing, the medicine and outward work comes naturally.

In this episode, I share about my perspective on covid and how it is a really powerful time for deep reflection.  A time to rethink the structures and the systems that we live under, and a reflection on capitalism and colonialism needing to take accountability for the destruction of the earth.  A powerful time to go within, disentangle from from the toxicity that keeps us tied down,  in order to reclaim our true power and potential within.  It's an important time to embrace the change and create the new world we want to see.  My thoughts, prayers, love, blessings and strength go out to everyone during this uncertain time.
