Does your life sometimes feel meaningless, like a journey without purpose?
We all have a purpose in this life. As we strive to find what that purpose is our trauma and drama can get in the way. Shamanism can help us move beyond that and connect us to our own unique purpose.
Join me, Kerry Cadambi, and my guest Frank Coppietersas we explore the Shamanic Connection as a way to communicate with Spirit for guidance and finding meaning in life. We will talk about journeying as a path to greater self-understanding, healing, and self-realization. And Frank will share the importance of the art of listening to your particular way of being tuned in, how to explore and trust that.
