This week on The New Beyond, I had the extraordinary honor of speaking with Shannon Willis, a ritualist and ancestral healer whose work on Soft Rebellion stopped me in my tracks.

She speaks of a revolution that is fluid, organic, and unstoppable. One that moves not through confrontation, but through connection. One that spreads beneath the surface, like the mycelium that erodes empires from below.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why movements without leaders cannot be beheaded

• The mycelial nature of Soft Rebellion—how it thrives unseen

• The three principles that shift fear into transformation: Curiosity, Compassion, and Courage

• Why joy is one of the greatest acts of defiance

• How we reclaim our power by minding our purse—divesting from the extractive systems that harm us

This conversation is a game-changer. It’s for the healers, artists, dreamers, and quiet revolutionaries who feel weary of fighting but refuse to give up. It’s for those who know, deep down, that there is another way.
