Description

In this deeply personal episode, I take you on the journey of a fire quest—an ancient ceremonial practice where you sit with fire through the night in prayer and reflection. You'll discover what fire teaches us about unwavering commitment, letting go of what no longer serves, and the courage it takes to stop playing small and step fully into your calling.

Key Themes and Topics:

In this episode, we explore:

  • What a fire quest actually is and why fire is one of the most powerful teachers available to us
  • Three profound lessons that emerged from my night beside the flames about commitment, transformation, and stepping into your calling
  • The raw truth about what happens when you confront your excuses in the firelight
  • How ancient ceremonial practices inform modern connected self-leadership
  • Honouring the legacy of those who open paths for us

If you've been holding back, dimming your light, or waiting for permission to step into your purpose, this episode will challenge and inspire you. Whether you're standing at a threshold or simply curious about what ceremony and nature connection can offer, you'll leave with a clearer sense of what it means to stop playing small.
