What happens when you slow down the "girl boss" and shift the focus to finding authentic, heart-centered purpose? Today's guest is inspired by the future, love and community. Let's find out what we could aspire to when the focus is holistic and to meet people where they are at. Does the world need to be mothered on a large scale?

We'll explore all of these ideas and more today with Alece.

I urge each one of you to check out her website - see where it all began with the eczema creme and soap.

Alece's current products and offerings can be found on: https://hellospiritual.com/.

Welcome back - I'm happy you're here. Recently, I've felt the desire to reboot Mer's Net. In this episode, I explore my reasons for the reboot. My ethos with this iteration of Mer's Net is to provide a place for storytelling. I believe deeply that everyone has a story (or stories) to share. Within those stories - I want to find out what their "why" is. I'll share some of my own journey from the last four years and reconnect with past guests of the podcast. I also look forward to meeting new people. If you have a story to share, please reach out. I am slightly harder to find now, but you can always email me: tarotwithtux@gmail.com.

In this episode, I give you all a life update and thank my friend Tay for helping me gain control over my domain again. You can find Tay at https://www.instagram.com/theprescribedpotion/. She also has a podcast called The Prescribed Potion found on all platforms, check her out! I've been on it as well. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this story of synchronicities leading me to find the solution to the mirror-related fuckery. If you know, you know. As always, you can find me on Instagram, but I've changed my name - https://www.instagram.com/merewing_/. You can book readings by reaching out on Insta. We are low tech right now, but the magic is potent. MINI READINGS, the oh so popular, mini readings are back as well. $10 for a mini channeled message. I love that you guys love them as much as I love doing them. Love y'all. Drink your water.

Please enjoy this conversation with my doula and close friend, Meryl Seward. We detail her journey to becoming a doula, what drew her to birthwork and what all of it even means - to us. You can find Meryl at https://www.instagram.com/merylthedoula/. If you have any questions, as always, you can reach out to me. If it's doula related, I can be reached at lilyflowersdoulacare@gmail.com or https://www.instagram.com/lilyflowersdoulacare/.

We are both getting our certification through Cornerstone Doula Trainings. Our opinions expressed in this episode are just that - our own opinions. Certification is not necessary in some states, but it is something that felt important to me. It should not be a gatekeeping tactic to keep people from doula support though! Note: we say it in the podcast, but it's nice to have it in writing... Doula care is non medical support.

This week on the podcast, Brittany (AKA: AstroWeatherLady), joins me to talk about solar, lunar and Saturn returns... oh my! Lots of information on this episode. As always, a big thank you to our guest this week. She brings the knowledge, passion and creativity! I hope you'll find her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/astroweatherlady/ and Etsy https://www.etsy.com/shop/astroweatherlady/. As I mentioned in the intro to the show, Mer's Net may be going to a bi-weekly release schedule. I kept up with the weekly releases for as long as I could, but my hope is that with the less frequent releases I can devote more time to my guests and the conversations that we are having. Thank you so much for listening. You can find me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tarotwithtux/, Patreon https://www.patreon.com/mersnet, and book your reading via DM on Instagram or https://tarotwithtux.as.me/schedule.php.
