with Lemarc Thomas. In Swedish folklore, on midsummer, you should pick 7 flowers from 7 fields and place them under your pillow, to dream of your one true love. Today’s episode - a midsummer special - is all about true love. Lemarc has a background in psychology and has become known internationally as a matchmaking expert. The Telegraph called him “The gentle but determined cupid”. You might not be looking for love right now, but Lemarc’s work is not just about meeting love, it is about living a life of love, and I think that is something that we all dream of.

When my boyfriend preposed I didn’t have an answer for him. Instead, I was surprised to find, I had a question of my own: what does marriage actually mean today?

with Anna Sjösvärd. Today's episode is all about crafts. Is there an inherent spiritual value in making something with our own hands? Can developing a sense of craftsmanship help us find purpose and meaning? Could materialism, in the true sense of the word, actually be a virtue? Anna joins us to discuss these ideas. Anna has a degree from Gothenburg University in cultural leadership, specialising in traditional crafts. She is a cofounder of Kraft, teaching workshops and lectures about textiles, traditional crafts and sustainability in museums, schools and companies.

with Lori Boggan. How can we, as a society, do a better job of holding space for new mothers? What rituals could we introduce to celebrate moving from archetypal maiden to mother? Can storytelling and birth stories play a role in healing? Lori is a registered nurse, with qualifications in both America and Sweden and years of experience in newborn intensive care. She is now a postpartum Doula and the founder of Om Baby and Wellness in Gothenburg.

with Daniela Arango. Today's episode is the story of a near-death experience, falling in love and a mystical awakening with a healer in Bali. We discuss some big questions: Do we each have spiritual gifts to uncover? What does a soul-led life look like? How do we know if struggle is sign that we are on the wrong path or if we should keep faith and continue onwards?

with Frida Pernesten. We live at a fascinating point in history and the story of Hilma af Klint illustrates many of the reasons why. Born into a family of cartographers, Hilma af Klint was a Swedish painter and mystic who set about mapping the spirit world. Her work was unappreciated during her time, but Hilma af Kint envisaged a future in which it would be understood. In her will, she stipulated that the paintings be kept secret until decades after her death. Today, she is a sensation in the art world and considered a pioneer of abstract art. I was first introduced to her work through my friend and mentor Frida Pernesten. Here we discuss the occult turn of the century, the mysterious group of five women who practiced as spiritual mediums, and how mysticism is regarded in Swedish society today.

How can we align our work and our purpose? Can self-care be a political act? How can spirituality and storytelling help us find solutions to the climate crisis? Today I speak with Annie Ross about finding balance between the personal and the political.

with Michelle Baker. The craziest thing happened to me last year. On the 10th of March I nervously went along to my first breathwork class with Michelle Baker. What followed was such a trip… and one of the most sacred experiences of my life. The active breathing mediation that she led us through brought me to a place of pure wholeness and oneness that is hard to describe, but that countless mystics and poets have put words to before me. The very next day, the World Health Organisation declared Covid 19 a pandemic. I don’t know how I would have navigated this year without Michelle and breathwork. I am so grateful for that divine timing. I am also so grateful that she joined me as a guest on Like a Prayer to talk about breathwork, being present within the body, what it means to come home, building community in Sweden and poetry.

with Joséphine Klerks. Together we delve into the secret history of the Forest Finns, the lasting wounds of the witch hunts, making art that reclaims the divine feminine and the magic of the Swedish forest.

with Alexandra Middleton. Together we discuss embodied writing, being in flow, building a community in Sweden and the magic of a Swedish winter.
