In episode 10 I'm thrilled to have the talented musician and author McCall Erickson back on Musitations™!  I first read a quote 5 years ago by McCall that touched me deeply, “Soul work is not a high road. It's a deep fall into an unforgiving darkness that won't let you go until you find the song that sings you home.”  It was a beautiful distillation of what I have found to be true on my own journey. In Episode 6 you can hear more about her book  The Second Half of the Mountain: A guide to Personal Alchemy After Awakening. Since our last episode we have stayed in touch and found a mutual focus, concern and interest in the following topics particularly around emotional sobriety and how it relates to healing from codependency, developing our creativity and supporting our well-being. Topics explored: What is emotional sobriety? Our personal journeys with healing codependency and learning to transmute feelings and emotions Feeling vs. Emoting and how they're both necessary Our work to live beyond the drama triangle Forming secure attachments outside of the drama triangle Attachments vs. connections Link to McCall's website: https://www.mccallerickson.com Link to the video version of this episode (coming soon)
