Déjà Blu Podcast

Dearest Blubirds, There's something significantly healing about a person who is genuinely embodied in what they teach. I first saw this incredible human on Instagram and quite honestly knew he was the perfect guest to join us for this miniseries. It's a cozy setup!! Lily and I are curled together on the teddy bear chairs across from Ryan, as we talk about the mother and father wounds we so often unconsciously carry into our adult relationships. Ryan speaks into what it truly means to embody the integrated masculine, sharing wisdom we can each carry into all kinds of relational dynamics. We explore the importance of grieving what we never received in childhood, and how our intimate partnerships can become the greatest mirrors for the parts of ourselves that are still asking for our attention. Through the archetypes of the Emperor, Empress, and Hermit, we explore this initiatory path so beautifully mirrored in the journey of the tarot: what it means to put our eyes inward, take responsibility for our emotional landscape, and begin creating more healing in the world than harm. I feel this conversation is such an important reminder that the relationship we have with ourselves ultimately shapes the way we show up for the people we love. Please share with us what you learn from this podcast. We would truly love to hear your thoughts and experiences.

Hello Beautiful Blubirds, Lily and I wanted to sit down and speak into something that feels very alive in the collective right now: what it means to create by hand in a time where almost anything can be generated in a matter of seconds. We dive into AI, long-form devotion, and why we chose to make the Heavenly Bodies Tarot the slow way. It was not the most efficient path, but it asked us to become the kind of women who could actually carry this body of work into the world. We also talk about the seduction of ease. The fact that we are currently being programmed out of what makes us human, and the discomfort of creative blocks that creates the necessary friction that comes with making something real. It matters now, more than ever, that the systems we turn to for wisdom have moved through our precious human body, the depth of our soul, and our fragile yet very beautiful human heart. If there's anything you take away from this episode, I want you to ask yourself: What am I willing to slow down for? That answer alone, will guide you to fulfillment on your path.

Hi Blubirds, It takes a lot to create a piece of art with someone, let alone an entire tarot deck with 78 pieces of hand-craft paintings and personal prayers. For this episode in the mini series, Lily and I really wanted to sit down and speak into the greatest teachings we've cultivated within our friendship over the last three years. We speak into the six pillars that have shaped our relationship: The many moments of tension that came through creating the Heavenly Bodies Tarot together, our time in the Amazon, and what happens when two very different people choose to remain in the fire rather than protect a false sense of harmony.  (And it's quite a funny episode, at that). I feel this is a conversation a lot of women will relate to… what it takes to allow ourselves to be truly seen. It's really an exploration of the work beneath our meaningful connection. The difficult conversations, the mirrors we've become for one another, the willingness to tell the truth with love, and the beautiful depth that becomes available when friendship is treated with the same devotion we so often reserve for romantic partnership. Perhaps the question underneath it all is a simple one: Do we want convenient friendships, or honest ones?  Thank you for being here.

Dearest Blubirds, It is such a joy to be back after nearly three years away. To bring you all into the journey of where I've been, Lily and I decided to film a miniseries and open the story of what has unfolded since I last sat in this chair, as well as talk about what it truly took to birth the Heavenly Bodies Tarot deck into the world.  In this episode we speak into our friendship, the initiation of art, my journey with hearing loss and the integration of Blu and Charlotte.  This conversation truly feels like a doorway into a new season of my life. One that I feel is less about having all of the answers, and more about sharing our lived, human experience: The beauty of what it takes to create an entire 78-card deck by hand, how we've learned to soften into life, and the magic we can create in the world when we learn to surrender to what is being asked of us.  Thank you for being here.  I'm excited for you to hear this first episode and for us to embark on this journey together. It truly means the world.

Beautiful Blu Birds,  It wasn't easy for me to sit down and record today's episode. Teary eyes and a grateful heart over here.  I had a lot of resistance and got to move through many layers of attachment, identity and not wishing to dishonor a creation that has - and continues to - genuinely impact people's lives in a positive way. You have all played such a huge role in my life, and I feel like we have become a community. In over 122 episodes I have poured my heart and soul into the vastness of the internet, and the gifts I have received from doing so are boundless.  When I sit down and truly ask myself what it is that I need in this phase of my life, the answer is not to be more visible and continue to share online, but to cultivate something so rich within my being that can only be found in silence - to no longer feed any instant gratification.  The answer is to create art as an extension of my being, and to birth it into the world from a place of gentle persistence. To truly walk the path of devotion through consistency and focus over time.  So, this is not a goodbye. This is merely a "I'll see you later." And in the meantime, please always remember to carry beauty, love and unity on your wings and that the Divinity, the magic and everything you're looking for, is already inside of you. I love you with my whole heart. You beautiful magnificent, enchantingly rich, Blu bird. See you soon I love you,  Blu   P.s.
