Where You Go, You Meet Yourself: Paulina Davie on Astrocartography & the Places That Shape Us
Description
Welcome to Say More, the podcast where we go beyond the performance. In this series, I sit down with creators, healers, and thought leaders to explore how they navigate life’s crossroads—especially when the old scripts no longer serve.
Today’s guest is Paulina Davie—certified astrocartographer, locational astrologer, and the rare kind of practitioner who makes you feel more at home in yourself just by listening.
We talk about identity, intuition, AI, and place—what it means to belong, what gets unearthed when we travel, and how to work with your chart rather than around it. Paulina shares how a solo trip to Cambodia cracked open her own Chiron line and identity lineage, and how her career was quietly born on a Pluto MC—through breakdown, discernment, and a refusal to outsource the truth.
This conversation is grounded, expansive, and deeply human. If you’ve ever felt the call to move, shift, or start again, this one’s for you.
Listen on Substack or wherever you get your podcasts.
