Ep. 200 : Lessons From A Dead Owl

This episode is a bit of a vulnerable one. I talk about some profound lessons which really impacted me, and shook some of my self image. I also feel a bit exposed by acknowledging I have honestly received some profound lessons from interactions with a dead Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus).

Essentially the show is about theft, and honouring our values & commitments to the world around us, and how we want to be in relationship with those we share this world with and with those whom we teach and mentor. I feel that this story telling is because I did something I believe to be a grievous and intentional act against another, but it is also about learning from my mistakes and working towards repair.

I recorded this one back on September 15th, but wanted to wait a bit to release it. It felt suitable to release it today, being Halloween, when that liminal space between the living world and the world of the dead is reportedly thin.

Thanks for listening to this one.
