    WW 18 Elizabeth Russell: 2020 recap via dreams from a future past

    WW 18 Elizabeth Russell: 2020 recap via dreams from a future past

    If you could talk to someone from the future—a future where we succeeded in creating a regenerative world—wouldn’t you want to know what we did to get there?

    In this episode I talk to Elizabeth Russell the creator of the Dreamfruit Almanac. An intuitive planning tool that centers around Thirteen “Dreams” from a future past detailing step by step instructions for how we build that world. As Elizabeth writes “The opportunity within Dreamfruit is to let the wisdom of the imaginal realm become a practical tool of transformation.”

    In our interview, we look at the “Dreams” that Elizabeth downloaded for 2020 and see how they measured up to the events we just lived through. It’s kinda my nod to the ‘year in review’ podcasts and news stories you see everywhere, but with a feminist and magical twist.

    We also talk about the importance of deep imagination in navigating these difficult and often confusing times, and take a sneak peek at the ‘Dreams’ Elizabeth has received for 2021.

    More about Dream Fruit
    Dream fruit focuses on the themes of Natural time, Animism and Natural Allies and revolves around the 13 Dreams discussed above.

    “Each of the thirteen “Dreams from the Future” animates the themes of the time and gives the psyche a narrative of transformation. These dreams are written in past tense. They can be read as missives from a future being or from the collective dream to help you conceive a path forward through the particular terrain of the time.”

    WW 17 Speaking out: coming forward about my former teachers.

    WW 17 Speaking out: coming forward about my former teachers.

    In this episode we discuss the zine I wrote last year describing my experience of leaving a Mystery School in Portland, and my journey to unpack the manipulative and damaging experience I had there. It asks questions about whether the school is a cult and explores the kind of support that was helpful for me when coming forward, and the things that were very unhelpful. We also discuss the new name and revised mission of this podcast.
