The Contradictions of Belief Mar 29, 2024

Show notes

Jordan-Marie Smith is holding a lot: growing up in a traditional, Seventh-day Adventist community, finding power in tarot, maintaining a belief in God and in herself, finding joy in what she manifests, and fear about what might happen if it all works out. She and Rebecca talk about holding the divine god within us and, as Jordan-Marie puts it, “hobbling and cobbling” your own religion.

The Cast of Characters Inside of Us Jan 12, 2024

Show notes

When Rebecca was dreaming of who to feature on the next episode of Voices in the River, one image kept resurfacing, asking to speak with her: It was her stage actor friend, Kate Eastwood Norris, playing Lady Macbeth. Now Rebecca and Kate finally get that chance to talk. The two of them discuss the different identities we all play like theater roles — whether or not we’re actors — and how we can bring them all together to become whole.

In this episode, Katie and Rebecca talk about learning how to trust themselves and find comfort in just being — oh, and how Katie uses AI to generate images from her shamanic journeys.

A Disruptive Force Nov 17, 2023

Show notes

Rebecca Auman has been using tarot to make life decisions for over 30 years. But this episode’s guest, Emi Kolawole, only recently turned to tarot as a way to help her “tell a different kind of story.” She explains how tarot opened a window on what she had been hoping to find: who she was without work, and what it was she really wanted. They discuss how something as simple as paying attention to your internal knowing can be such a disruptive force.
