  • All The Everything is Lian’s monthly solo show where she often shares what she’s been creating, consuming, and celebrating before diving deep into a topic inspired or chosen by members of the Be Mythical fb group.

    The LIVE making of the show is recorded in our Facebook group and for the first 30 minutes before Lian hits the record button you are invited to a pre-show party to get up close and personal with Lian and have your questions on the month’s topic answered.

    To receive a reminder of when the pre-show party and LIVE making of All The Everything is happening, make sure you’re subscribed to our email list and are a member of the Facebook group. All the details you need are HERE!

    This show begins by Lian telling a soul-stirring story of The Sacred Prostitute from the book of the same name by Nancy Qualls-Corbett.

    Lian then invites listeners to notice and explore the thoughts, feelings, and sensations that were evoked for them personally by the story, before moving into speaking about some of the universal themes, such as fear, repulsion, objectification, desire, and receptivity activated by this archetype, and how to work with them.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    The Sacred Prostitute evokes such deep collective themes that she can be an incredible potent archetype for showing us where our work lies - notice and honour what she brings up for you

    The Sacred Prostitute requires a deep level of maturity and individuation to work with deeply - Lian emphasises the importance of doing the foundational healing work and journeying through other archetypes before devoting to work with the Sacred Prostitute because she is such a magnet for fantasy and projection.

    Receptivity is a key aspect of the Sacred Prostitute archetype, but it is often misunderstood and undervalued in our culture, which of course is why it’s so needed, powerful and medicinal when we do experience it.

  • This week’s show is with Jonathan Horwitz. Jonathan was born in the USA and has lived in Scandinavia for over half his life. He has been actively working with shamanism since 1972, was a teacher and field researcher at the Foundation for Shamanic Studies for 10 years and has a master’s degree in anthropology.

    In 1986, Jonathan co-founded the Scandinavian Center for Shamanic Studies and has been teaching internationally ever since, in Russia, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Belgium, Sweden and the UK. He has been a frequent contributor to Sacred Hoop magazine and served for some years as European Editor for Journal of Shamanic Practice. He lives with his partner Zara in the woods of southern Sweden at Åsbacka, their home and retreat center.

    Jonathan is known for his grounded, present and warm teaching style. He sees shamanism as a spiritual path and his main focus is shamanic healing, spiritual ecology and shamanic community work. As a teacher, he feels his role is to help people find the road to the Spirit world, encourage them to accept the power offered, and learn how to bring power back to the physical world.Shamanism is about life. Life is change. Shamanism is change with power.

    In this show, Jonathan and Lian explore the topic of learning from spirit teachers.

    They begin with Jonathan’s own story of attempting to live a more conventional life before realising that it wasn’t his true path, that alongside some profound and also disruptive experiences, led him to explore the spiritual realms.

    Jonathan also discusses discovering his path of shamanism through his friend, well-known shamanic teacher and author, Michael Harner, which went on to inspire him to embrace the practice of learning from spirit teachers.

    Lian and Jonathan spoke about the transition from learning from human teachers to spirit teachers, stressing the need for patience, trust, and openness in this ongoing process, which can last a lifetime!

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Working with spirit teachers requires patience, trust, and openness to learn their language and receive their teachings - they may not come in the form we expect or want

    The transition from learning from human teachers to learning from spirit teachers is a natural progression in the shamanic path, though it’s one we can either rush towards or resist.

    The teachings from spirit teachers are vast and endless, and there is always more to learn.

  • This week’s show is with Jessica DiRuzza MFT. Jessica is a depth psychotherapist, astrologer, and teacher, as well as a wife, and badass mama. For over 15 years, she has worked lovingly and collaboratively with individuals, couples, and groups on their embodied transformative journeys. Her life’s calling is to integrate the insights and wisdom of astrology and psychology to support humans living the most meaningful lives they can with the precious time they have here. She offers sessions online with people from around the world and from all walks of life.

    Jessica received her Master’s in Counselling Psychology with an emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, where she wrote her thesis on shame and the reclamation of the feminine voice. She earned her bachelor’s from California Institute of Integral Studies where she studied and taught archetypal astrology and transpersonal psychology. Together with her husband, Travis, they co-founded Trust Psyche School of Astrology and Depth Psychology, which offers a full astrological curriculum, from beginner to professional, with a beloved community of students from over 25 countries. They would love for you to come live astrology with them.

    In this episode, Jessica delves into her fascinating journey of intertwining astrology and psychology, revealing how these two disciplines—astrology as the language of the sky and psychology as the language of the soul—are profoundly interconnected. She shares how her experiences with psychedelics sparked a deeper exploration into astrology and depth psychology, emphasising the transformative power of uniting these fields to better understand one's purpose and navigate life's challenges and uncertainties. Lian shares her own return to astrology and together, they explore how astrology provides profound insights into identity, purpose, and relationships.

    This discussion offers a unique perspective on embracing one's individuality and making conscious soulful choices through the lens of astrology.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Astrology is the language of the sky and psychology is the language of the soul, and they are deeply interconnected - providing maps of the macrocosm and microcosm - as above, so below.

    Uniting, or perhaps re-uniting, astrology and psychology offers a powerful framework for understanding our deepest identities, life purposes, and how we can more consciously navigate challenges.

    Astrological charts can offer profound insights into who we are, including potential neurodivergent traits. There’s so much wisdom available in a chart, that just focusing on one aspect, as you heard in this episode with Lian’s Libra stellium, can provide a deeper understanding, allowing for making more informed decisions and cultivating a more authentic, expressed life.

  • This week’s show is with returning guest Mike Bais. Mike is a physiotherapist, counselor, university lecturer and author, also having had his own practice for many years. He is a trained priest in the esoteric christian tradition, which lead him to follow the mystical side of this lineage called the A.S.A. (Apostolic Succession of Arimathea). He believes that the Teachings of Christ are universal and should not be limited to a religious structure.

    His esoteric training comes from the western mystery tradition and the Toledano Kabbalah. Living in the Netherlands (Utrecht) he extensively worked with teachers and groups in the UK.

    After some decades of study and practice in the western esoteric tradition, the inner work came together in these three streams or disciplines that make up the Circle of Avalon.

    Mike sees it as his life’s work to teach these traditions to whomever wishes to receive them. He is a mystic and teacher by nature and through his groups, individual sessions, workshops and writing, transmits them in the most pure and true way he knows.

    Mike is the author of 3 books: Paths on the Tree of Wisdom – A course in 21st Century Kabbalah, A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 1 and A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 2.

    In this show, Mike and Lian discuss the power of myths, legends, and archetypes on the path of the soul.

    Mike shares his own journey of discovering the importance of myths and working with the round table mythology.

    They also discuss the cultural conditioning that dismisses the role of myth and the need to reclaim its relevance in our lives. They explore how archetypes can be used as guides on our individual quests and how they can help us navigate different aspects of our lives.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Cultural conditioning often dismisses the role and relevance of myth, but it is important to reclaim its significance in our lives - working with myths and archetypes allows us to access deeper dimensions of ourselves and explore what is possible beyond societal limitations. Myths have the power to inspire and guide us in our personal growth and spiritual transformation.

    Although there is an objective aspect to archetypes, subjective experience is an essential aspect of working with archetypes, and it is important to embrace the subjective nature of these experiences. Trust and honour that subjectivity by finding a myth that resonates with you as a first step.

    The interplay between different archetypes and the relationships between them are crucial in understanding their power and significance - this is part of why working with archetypes within a community or group can amplify their potency and create a deeper sense of connection and understanding.

  • This week’s show is with Jessica DiRuzza MFT. Jessica is a depth psychotherapist, astrologer, and teacher, as well as a wife, and badass mama. For over 15 years, she has worked lovingly and collaboratively with individuals, couples, and groups on their embodied transformative journeys. Her life’s calling is to integrate the insights and wisdom of astrology and psychology to support humans living the most meaningful lives they can with the precious time they have here. She offers sessions online with people from around the world and from all walks of life.

    In this episode, Lian and Jessica go unexpectedly deep on the topic of neurodivergent parents, parents of ND children, and really, so much of what they spoke about is relevant to all parents who are devoted to honouring their own and their children’s wild souls.

    They’d actually planned to record on a completely different topic (astrology and psychotherapy - which they’ve now recorded too!) but within two minutes of getting on the call, Lian mentioned that she’d seen that they’re both autistic, they began sharing their own experiences and that with their children that brought tears to their eyes.

    They realised that it was the topic they needed to speak about first - and it turned out to be an incredible and moving episode, that went in some deep, painful, and thought-provoking places… places that bring us face to face with our conditioning and wounding… places that we believe anyone on the path of soul needs to go at some point, ND or not.

    They explored the journey of self-discovery and acceptance of being autistic, and how it relates to individuation, parenting and ancestral healing, and the role of parents in breaking the cycle of masking, misunderstanding and abuse, and promoting unconditional love and acceptance.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Creating a safe and accepting environment for neurodivergent children to be themselves is crucial for their well-being and growth but we also need to go first as parents, and devote to a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance for ourselves too.

    One of the most challenging aspects of this journey is understanding that being true to oneself can have impacts and consequences - learning discernment is important.

    When we are able to love and accept ourselves as neurodivergent people, we are healing our lineage too, the generations that came before us and will come after us.

  • This week’s show is with Be Mythical co-founders, Lian Brook-Tyler and Jonathan Wilkinson.

    In this conversation, a special 10-year episode of the podcast, Lian and Jonathan reflect on their journey, including the deep unfolding of the show itself, and answer listener questions posed to each of them.

    They discuss the organic and spontaneous nature of starting the podcast and the importance of trusting their intuition, the dedication and vision it has taken to be consistent over so many years.

    The personal and thought-provoking questions they asked and answered were:

    If you had to drop all your different practices and only keep one - what would it be and why?

    Looking back on the past 10 years, what are you most proud of? And is there anything you regret or would like to have done differently?

    If you could give one piece of guidance to a young man who is struggling with life, what would it be?

    What is something about you that you’ve rarely or never spoken about publicly before that you feel ready to speak about now?

    If you could go back in time 10 years ago and tell yourself something at the outset of this podcasting journey what would that be?

    If you could whisper into everyone’s ear in the world at the same time in whatever their language is what would that be?

    What was the most powerful experience of your life?

    Where is the most magical place you have been?

    If you were trapped on a desert island what one item, spiritual or not, would you bring?

    In responding to these questions, Jonathan and Lian talked about the power of vision quests and the impact they can have on personal growth and maturity, the concept of mirrors and how they can provide deep self-reflection, finding beauty in suffering, and the magic of the English land.

    The conversation concludes with a powerful message of love and self-discovery.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Looking back on the reason the podcast began shows the importance of trusting intuition and following the organic and spontaneous nudges that show up along the way.

    Many of their answers came back to the importance of self-discovery and the different ways we can walk the path of knowing thyself

    And now a question for you, the listener, imagine if you could be transported in time to a decade into the future and take a look at your future self, living your own soul’s truth… What would you see? And what does that require of you now?

  • This week’s show is with Chris Lüttichau. Chris is the founder of Northern Drum Shamanic Centre, a UK-based educational organisation offering a renewed perspective on traditional shamanic and medicine teachings, and a safe grounding from which to learn them established in 1998.

    Chris is the keeper of an integral body of teachings that he shares in workshops and ongoing training groups. The teachings cover a broad range of topics from healing and the art of dreaming to spirit contact and the way of the council. Chris is the author of the critically acclaimed book on shamanism ‘Calling Us Home – Find Your Path, Your Balance and Your Inner Strength’ published in 2017 and ‘Animal Spirit Guides: Discover your Power Animal and the Shamanic Path’ published 2009. He is an international teacher, and has appeared on TV on BBC 1, and in Denmark on TV2, and has given radio interviews in the USA, Canada, and the UK.

    In this show, Chris and Lian explored the intersection of shamanism and working with myths and archetypes.

    They discuss the power of myths to reveal truth and teach us about ourselves and the universe. They also delve into the different ways that myths are understood in Western Vs. shamanic cultures, with the Western perspective often viewing myths as symbolic archetypes and the shamanic perspective seeing them as living, magical stories.

    They highlight the importance of relating to myths from the heart and intuition rather than the analytical mind, and the role of myths in guiding us to live in harmony and prepare for death.

    Overall, Lian and Chris invite listeners to build a bridge into the mythical reality.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Myths are powerful stories that reveal truth and teach us about ourselves and the universe, and can guide us to live in harmony with all of life and prepare for death.

    The Western perspective often views myths as symbolic archetypes, while the shamanic perspective sees them as living, magical stories.

    Relating to myths from the heart and intuition allows us to enter the mythical reality and receive direct guidance.

    Building a bridge into the mythical reality is a way to reclaim our birthright and live in a more connected and meaningful way.

  • This week’s show is with Paul F. Austin. Paul is a prominent figure in psychedelics, has guided millions to safe and meaningful psychedelic experiences through his work as the founder of Third Wave. Featured in Forbes, Rolling Stone, and the BBC's Worklife, he pioneers the convergence of psychedelics, personal transformation, and professional success.

    Paul empowers leaders, creatives, and pioneers to leverage psychedelics for profound personal and professional growth. Paul's expertise also extends to microdosing, a trend gaining momentum. He authored "Mastering Microdosing," a comprehensive guide that seamlessly blends research and anecdotes. It's a transformative resource for leaders, creatives, and healers. He views psychedelics as refined skills cultivated through mentorship, exploration, and purposeful use—critical for humanity's ongoing evolution.

    As the longest-standing and youngest entrepreneur in this field, Paul's focus on merging psychedelics with professional development is evident in his transformative training program Psychedelic Coaching Institute The program caters to individuals who seek to integrate their psychedelic experiences into their business practices, all under the guidance of one of the industry’s most trusted leaders.

    In this show, Paul and Lian explored the topic of working with psychedelics in a healing and transformative capacity, especially for those of us already in the change-work field.

    Paul shares his origin story and how he combined his passion for meaningful work and social impact with psychedelics.

    They discuss the modern stigma around psychedelics Vs the historical use of these substances.

    Lian and Paul talk about potential benefits of including psychedelics in change-work and emphasise the need for intention, reverence, responsibility, integration, and community when using psychedelics as a catalyst for healing and transformation.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Including psychedelics in change-work can break through deep conditioning and armoring, allowing for more subtle energetic techniques to be effective.

    The stigma around psychedelics is rooted in archaic religion and outdated policies, and it is important to move past this stigma to explore the potential benefits of these substances. The historical use of psychedelics in ancient and indigenous cultures suggests their benevolent impact on human consciousness.

    Creating systems change and a new paradigm requires a communal approach and a focus on impact and interconnectedness.

    Reciprocity and honoring indigenous wisdom are essential in the psychedelic space, especially for those of us who are benefiting directly or indirectly from their generosity.

    In this show, Maria and Lian explored the topic of shamanic journeying, and how it can support us in developing a relationship with nature, especially with the plants around you.

    Developing a relationship with nature, especially the beings around us - such as the plants and animals in our local land - is essential for rewilding and living in harmony with the natural world.

    Shamanic journeying can be a powerful tool for gaining insights and guidance, and it can be accessed through various resources and practices.

    Start with what annoys you in your garden or surroundings as a way to begin developing a relationship with nature and understanding the messages it has for you.

    In this conversation, they reflect on the challenges for old souls in fitting in and the longing for deeper conversations and connections. They discuss the vital role of intentional community in personal growth, touching on the need for discernment in choosing communities, the roles we each play, the need for intention, and the impact of technology on modern-day connections.

    They highlight the power of coming together in community and the transformative experiences that can arise from shared journeys, and emphasise the importance of finding connection and support for those of us on the path of individuation and union.

    Intentional and conscious communities provide a space for transformative experiences and deeper connections - discernment is important in choosing communities that align with one's values and goals.

    Understanding the roles of members, especially your own, is important when joining a community… be intentional about why you’re in a community and what you’re there to provide and receive.

  • Why microdose with ritual and reverence?

    This week’s show is a special one in which Be Mythical Soul Guide Sara J. Sanderson interviewed Lian about microdosing in a way that brings consciousness, reverence and ritual to the relationship with the teacher plant concerned.

    Lian and Sara begin by exploring the usually stated benefits of microdosing, such as reducing anxiety and stress, and opening up creativity, then delve into the deeper question of why microdosing might have these effects.

    They then talk the importance of developing a conscious relationship with the teacher plant, and the unique nature of each individual's relationship with the teacher plant.

    The conversation concludes with a reflection on the purpose of microdosing, within the context of doing the Great Work of individuation and union.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Microdosing has known benefits such as reducing anxiety and stress and enhancing creativity but when we enter a conscious relationship with the teacher plant concerned we might open to deeper benefits.

    Each individual's relationship with the teacher plant is unique and requires conscious awareness and intention - when we work with ritual, we begin a conversation with the teacher plant concerned, the first steps of creating a conscious relationship.

    Working with teacher plants is a gift that requires deep respect and a willingness to do the work, which includes taking action on the guidance received… And of course, the purpose of doing this work goes far beyond reducing stress or increasing creativity… It is to illuminate, heal, live out our unique myth, and experience union.

  • New guest Mike Bais is a physiotherapist, counselor, university lecturer and author, also having had his own practice for many years. He is a trained priest in the esoteric christian tradition, which lead him to follow the mystical side of this lineage called the A.S.A. (Apostolic Succession of Arimathea). He believes that the Teachings of Christ are universal and should not be limited to a religious structure.

    His esoteric training comes from the western mystery tradition and the Toledano Kabbalah.

    Mike is the author of 3 books: Paths on the Tree of Wisdom – A course in 21st Century Kabbalah, A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 1 and A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 2.

    In this show, Mike and Lian discuss the relevance of the Kabbalah Tree of Life to the path of the soul in today’s modern world.

    The Tree of Life is a central concept in Kabbalah, representing universal principles that can be applied to any person or spiritual path - it provides a mirror that reflects the 10 principles of life and the modes of experience. The Kabbalah provides a complete path for those in the Western tradition, offering a way to relate inner realities to the modern world and move towards unity.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    The Toledano Kabbalah is a branch of Kabbalah that is inclusive, universal, and pragmatic, it provides a map for understanding the path of the soul and the different levels of reality that can be relevant and available to anyone, regardless of their background.

    The material world, including the body, is seen as an expression of divinity in Kabbalah, and so it is an immanent as well as transcendent path.

    The Kabbalah provides a complete path for those in the West, offering a way towards what might be described as awakening, enlightenment or unity, in the same way Eastern traditions do.

  • The LIVE making of Lian's monthly solo show All The Everything (ATE) is recorded in our Facebook group and for the first 30mins before Lian hits the record button you are invited to a pre-show party to get up close and personal with Lian and have your questions on the show's topic answered.

    To receive a reminder of when the pre-show party and LIVE making of ATE is happening, make sure you’re subscribed to our email list and are a member of the Facebook group. All the details you need are HERE!

    In this show, Lian tells the story of the Lindworm, setting the stage for a shamanic and alchemical journey through the tale.

    Spoiler alert! The story of the Lindworm follows a prince's quest for a bride, which becomes entangled with the monstrous Lindworm's demand to be married first.

    The tale explores themes of infertility, wisdom, rejection, regression, the power of love, and union, and Lian invites listeners to enter the story in a way that allows for these symbols to be revealed in their own psyches and lives to create illumination, understanding, and healing.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    The telling of a story is an alchemical process that brings the tale to life and allows for personal interpretation and reflection, as Joseph Campbell said “A myth is something that has never happened, but is happening all the time.”

    The Lindworm shows the consequences of rejecting and neglecting unwanted aspects of oneself, leading to regression and monstrous manifestations. As Jung said “Every part of us we do not love will regress and become more primitive”

    The Lindworm is emblematic of the journey of individuation, healing, and inner union - and what’s required for that to occur, including the role of wisdom and intuition in guiding one's actions and decisions, and the transformative power of love and acceptance in healing and uniting fragmented parts of the self.

  • But, what are the ancestors?

    Caitlin Matthews, is an internationally renowned author, a teacher of shamanic training programme, a facilitator of Systemic Ritual® and the co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (FÍOS).

    In this conversation, Caitlin and Lian dived deep on the topic of ancestors, the need to include them in our lives and how to do so.

    They discuss how different cultures view ancestors, from indigenous people who include land, animals, and nature as ancestors, to Western societies that often only consider immediate human ancestors - and barely have a conscious relationship to them.

    They highlight the importance of maintaining a connection with our ancestors and the impact it can have on our sense of belonging and purpose. The conversation also touches on the challenges of reclaiming ancestral relationships and the ‘small print’ that comes with ancestral gifts.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Western societies have largely forgotten or ignored ancestors, focusing only on immediate human ancestors… Ancestors are not just human, but can include the land, animals, and nature. Reclaiming our ancestral relationships can provide a sense of belonging, purpose, and a deeper understanding of our gifts and who we are. Honouring our ancestors involves being thoughtful of future generations and the impact of our actions on them… Becoming good ancestors ourselves.

  • Why would we use words like magic in the same sentence as healing and change-work?

    We're joined by guest Ryan Simbai Jenkins, a hypnotherapist and coach with an unusual upbringing. Born in Papua New Guinea*, his first experiences with non-traditional ways of healing came early on in life when his mother (a medical anthropologist) discovered a “lost” indigenous tribe called the Hagahai people. Ryan witnessed first hand how the tribal healers and shamans used forms of Trance to heal people from diseases of the body and mind. This profoundly influenced the course of his life.

    In this show, Ryan and Lian explored the topic of magic and its relationship to change work.

    They first define what they even mean by ‘magic, discussing different definitions of magic, including Alastair Crowley's and past guest Daniel Ingram.

    Then they delve into the practicality and efficacy of magic, drawing on personal experiences and indigenous and traditional perspectives, and also making the distinction between working spiritually and working magically, and the power of consciously aligning ourselves with the flow of healing.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    There is a distinction between ordinary magic and extraordinary magic, with the latter involving causal effects beyond what is considered ordinary cause and effect. Magic has practical applications and has played a role in human survival and shaped our existence for most of human history, which is why indigenous perspectives offer valuable insights into the understanding and practice of magic. You can consciously align yourself with the flow of healing and explore magic both for yourself and in change work with others, beginning with creating simple rituals and seeing what changes you notice compared to how things usually go, and creating a relationship with nature, such as connecting with a certain tree.

  • This week’s show is with Chris Wells PhD, LSW, a neurodivergent writer, social worker, and Dąbrowski scholar with a passion for studying and applying the theory of positive disintegration. They are also the founding president of the Dąbrowski Center and co-host of the Positive Disintegration Podcast.

    In this episode, Chris and Lian explored the topic of ‘Over-excitability’, the body of work initially created by Dąbrowski. And together they explored the concepts of over-excitability and positive disintegration in the context of neurodivergence.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Over-excitabilities are intense and heightened experiences in five areas: psychomotor, sensual, intellectual, imaginational, and emotional - which seem to map to different neurodivergent traits, challenges, and capabilities. Over-excitability and positive disintegration are concepts that provide a different lens to understand neurodivergence and personal growth, and the intersection between them… in other words how neurodivergence might in itself provide a path to self-illumination, transformation and integration. Understanding and celebrating over-excitabilities, and the unique ways they show up in individuals, can lead to compassion and a better understanding of oneself and others, and ultimately serve our journey of wholeness.

  • What questions do you ask, and where do you seek answers for your personal growth?

    This week’s show is with James Stratton-Crawley, also known as Tyriel, author of 'The Book of Rune Secrets', and 'Questioning the Runes: Confronting Our Hidden Stories', and creator of Rune Secrets, a popular website, bringing light to contemporary rune practices with the technology of today.

    In this show, Tyriel and Lian explored using the runes in an intentional alchemical way for self-illumination, healing, and growth.

    Tyriel started by sharing his own journey into spirituality, which began after experiencing a severe manic episode and hospitalisation. His desire to heal and understand himself led him to the runes and to learning how to use them in service of questioning everything and meeting the shadow within.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Different divination tools have their own unique energy and can call to us at different times in our lives - though we focused on the runes in this episode, much of what we spoke about could be applied to other systems.

    Runes are symbols that represent gateways to the unknown, asking deep questions and using the runes as a mirror can help explore hidden parts of oneself.

    At any time but maybe now especially in the age of artificial intelligence, asking questions and seeking answers is crucial for personal growth and societal progress.

  • How do you think Marina's journey of moving from repression and people-pleasing to living her soul's truth resonates with your own experiences or challenges in relationships and self-expression?

    In this show, Marina Pearson, author, guide, circle holder and retreat facilitator, and Lian explored Marina’s journey of going from repression, shame, and people-pleasing to now living her soul’s truth in her life and work.

    Marina, guides creatively talented women who are old souls to lovingly move beyond their fear of expressing themselves authentically in their romantic relationship. She has worked with women in this field for the last 15 years, hosting retreats, a top-ten podcast and has authored two books (the bestseller Goodbye Mr. Ex and The Joy of Being).

    In this show, Marina and Lian explored Marina’s journey of going from repression, shame, and people-pleasing to now living her soul’s truth in her life and work.

    Marina’s wounds stemmed from her childhood experiences, including inheriting money and feeling shame around her privilege, leading to a pattern of over-giving and people-pleasing in her relationships. Marina repressed her own needs and desires, particularly in the realm of intimate relationships and sexuality.

    When she began working with us at Be Mythical, she began to uncover these patterns and gain a deeper understanding of herself. Lian and Marina discuss the patterns and archetypes she has played out and how they have shifted over time, the importance of focusing on oneself, rather than the behaviour of our partners, and expressing one's truth in relationships.

    Lastly, they spoke about how Marina has alchemised her wounds into Medicine, which Marina now serves via her Unshackled brand, helping women to find and express their truth.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    As Marina’s journey shows, our childhood experiences and family dynamics can shape our relationship with all kinds of things, creating patterns of repression and people-pleasing. It's important to focus on one’s own truth, especially in relationships, in which we will continue to be pulled into patterns of behaviour that revolve around the other person. Exploring and understanding one's own truth is a nuanced and ongoing process which requires devotion and support. Doing the deep inner work can help uncover and heal deep-seated patterns and wounds, meaning the roles and patterns we play in relationships can radically shift - and just as in Marina’s case may reveal the powerful medicine we’ve come to be in the world.

  • Neurodivergent perspectives & magic... Could they be two sides of the same coin?

    Aidan Wachter, an animist, author, and healer, has been involved in practical magic since the 1980s. He is an animist and is deeply concerned with the effects of modern Western life-ways on the human animal, on both physical and spiritual levels.

    In this show, Aidan and Lian explore the intersection of magic and neurodivergencence. They discuss how neurodivergence and magic appear to overlap, including the unique perspectives and experiences that neurodivergent individuals bring to the practice of magic.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    Neurodivergent individuals often have a different worldview and experience of reality, which can lead them to seek out practices like magic to make sense of the world in a way that aligns more with their perspectives.

    Magic is not just a metaphor or psychological process, but a way of engaging with a different reality that neurodivergent individuals may be more attuned to.

    The intersection of neurodivergence and magic challenges societal norms and offers alternative ways of understanding and engaging with the world.

    Having allies and support is crucial in navigating the world as a neurodivergent person and is something we gain access to once we open to the reality of magic and the profound relationships that lie there.

  • This week’s show is a special one in which Be Mythical Soul Guide Sara J. Sanderson interviewed Lian about all things ‘doing the work’ - inspired by Lian’s recent post on the topic.

    Lian and Sara explored the concept of 'doing the work', a term often used in personal development and spirituality circles, often without an understanding of what it really means. They delve into the differences between truly doing the work and other forms of self-improvement, emphasising the importance of consciously choosing the Great Work of individuation and union. Some of the questions explored and answered were:

    1. How can we differentiate between 'the work' and other forms of self-improvement or self-care practices?

    2. Could you provide examples of how 'the work' relates to individuation, and union?

    3. In what ways can we identify whether we're truly engaging in 'the work' versus engaging in activities that may seem similar but ultimately bypass the deeper aspects of ourselves?

    4. Can you share more about the role of fear and resistance in undertaking 'the work', and how one can overcome or navigate through these challenges?

    5. Could you provide ways those who are feeling called to embark on 'the work' are supported? And if you are a healer, guide or coach how do you ensure you are supporting in the best way?

    The conversation highlights the role of fear and resistance in preventing us from doing the work and the challenges of recognising and navigating our projections and co-dependency. They also touch upon the potential pain and challenge of doing the work, as well as the importance of community and support in the process - which is why we created UNIO, The Academy of Sacred Union.

    We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

    What you’ll learn from this episode:

    The Great Work involves consciously looking at the hidden aspects of ourselves and bringing them into the light, whilst seeing and navigating all of the illusions, blockages, fear, and resistance that will show up along the way.

    The work can take various forms, such as shadow work, inner child work, or working with teacher plants but no matter the form, it requires a conscious devotion to the Great Work for it to be so.

    Recognising and becoming accountable for our projections and codependency is an essential part of doing the work.

    Doing the work can be challenging and painful, but is for those is it right for - a choiceless choice and one of the most rewarding ones we can make - having a supportive community and seeking guidance from those who understand the Great Work is crucial in sustaining the journey.
