Emma Zeck, is a poet, singer, songwriter, and performing artist, and the creator of Renaissance Mystery School. She channels what she calls the forbidden feminine and invites us to reclaim our power through creativity, ritual, and raw truth.
Emma and I dive into her story of breaking away from a strict Christian upbringing, losing her family, and finding her voice as a fierce creative force. We talk about what it means to descend into the underworld of the feminine, why facing darkness and death matters, and how writing, art, and embodiment can become medicine for spiritual awakening.
She shares her thoughts on the ways society suppresses instinct and mystery, the trap of purity culture even in wellness, what it really takes to live unapologetically in your fire, and to reclaim your voice as a woman in the process. Emma even reads one of her powerful poems live—and wow, it will blow you away.
This is a fiery, real conversation that asks you to question, to descend, and to allow yourself to hunger for more. Ready to learn how to reclaim your feminine power?
