THE CLEARING WITH KATHERINE MAY
Martha Beck and Rowan Mangan on the magic of communing with every living thing
Hello,
This episode of The Clearing with renowned, Oprah-endorsed American life coach Martha Beck and her wonderful wife and podcast co-host Rowan Mangan skips the small talk and delves right into the mysteries and wonder of life and death.
From the consciousness of stones to the nonsensical hierarchy of different sentient beings on earth. From the spiritual repression of our age to the societal need for a shaman. From the realities of living in a liminal space as an autistic person, to parenting neurodivergent children to each of their own unique ‘awakenings’.
With uncannily similar experiences of the world, Martha, Ro and I roll through a dizzying array of mind-expanding subjects and shared interests, resulting in a truly captivating and enriching episode.
