Full episode title: "De-mystifying Integration - digesting your spiritual journey for more potent, sustainable transformation"
About the episode:
Back in mid-October I received an email from long-time listener and spiritual development devotee Anne Ruel, sharing some thoughts and questions ep 49 had sparked for her as she considered questions of burnout, purpose anxiety, and integration in her own life and journey.
I thought about responding in a solo episode but had a suspicion a real-time conversation between the two of us would be richer. So in early December, we sat down and chatted all things “integration”.
Anne shared her story of starting with yoga and then moving further down the spiritual growth and development path through training after training (in yoga, energy healing modalities, life coaching, cacao ceremonies, etc)... and how she ended up feeling more burned out, alone, and lost than ever before. At the time, she hadn’t heard of the idea of integration. And she admits that though she’s beginning to suspect it was the missing piece for her, she feels mystified about what it actually is, how to know it’s happening, and what signs might signal it’s complete.
So we get into it.
Along the way, you’ll hear us explore things like:
the cultural rootlessness and lack of true mentors which leaves us with an immense inner hunger (and how capitalism wants us to feel that and why it can get us into trouble);
reclaiming curiosity, depth, enoughness, our own power and self-responsibility, and the permission to do things differently;
what wisdom actually is;
the costs of coercive capitalism, prizing youth over older age, and punitive justice systems (and how those tie into integration, burn out, feeling lost and overwhelmed);
setting boundaries (even with spirit guides and the things we love, partly as a way to maintain a sacred sense of connection);
the relational dance of encountering Spirit and untangling ourselves over and over again;
“peak experiences” as ruptures of our timeline;
riding the “down wave” after a peak experience… (hopefully) without feeling like we’re having a psychotic break;
how we might find who we are and what our purpose is;
and at what point in our spiritual development journey transformation actually happens (hint: it might not be what you’re used to thinking it is)
…and more.
As you can probably tell from that list, this is a deep (and lengthy) conversation. This might be one you want to listen to in chunks. I listened in for if there was a good place to edit it into two episodes, but decided to leave it intact as one. I leave it to you to find your right pacing for listening.
And I do hope you’ll listen. And share if it resonates.
From where I stand, integration is one of the key (often missing) pieces to navigating the spiritual and wellness world with more integrity - whether we’re there to deepen our own journey, or as a guide/ teacher/ facilitator for others.
We need more conversations like this.
Join us around the fire? You’re most welcome here.
And thanks, Anne, for reaching out with your questions, sharing your story and hard-earned wisdom, and joining me in this conversation.
(P.S. If you’re a listener and find yourself with questions, musings, etc after an episode - feel free to reach out. Maybe we can have a conversation, too)

About the Podcast:
In a world where humans who feel vibrant, whole, and fully alive seem to be increasingly rare; where burnout and brokenness seem to be increasingly the norm; it seems worth exploring how did we get here?
And, more importantly, what perspectives, cultural practices, and spiritual-ancestral-animist wisdom might help us stay true to the spark and rhythm of our aliveness through this wild, heart-breaking, but ultimately rare and precious life?
Thank you for being here.
I’m your host, Kate Powell - an old soul and highly sensitive empath who guides humans who want to use their burnout as a jumping-off point to journey into their shadows and the shadows of modern culture in order to embody their heart-values; remember a deeper, wilder sense of belonging to the world; and reclaim the rich and sacred spark of their aliveness.
Episodes drop on full and new moons.
