TW: there is mention of sexual assault in this episode, please take care of yourself and avoid this one if that is a not a topic you can hear about.
It was through Nya’s determination and following her creative path that inadvertently introduced me to the Moon Phase Goddesses in 2020 (her relationship with them has been much longer - 7 years of research happened before she launched her deck in 2018) I’m so pleased to bring you this episode where we explore her experiences on this challenging and fulfilling adventure, and the creative life she has built.
We discuss what brought her to the Moon Phase goddesses and her love of yoga.
Nya tells us what happened when she told her parents that she wanted to be an artist and how that unfolded.
We discuss the gritty aspects of life that perhaps draw us to explore and discover things that challenge the social constructs. The things that inspire us to ask questions.
Nya talks openly about the balance of creative work that’s for financial stability and creative work that’s a heart call.
She shares about the experience of menopause and how that has impacted her approach.
It’s real, it’s raw and it was so inspiring to me so I hope it is for you too.
