The idea presented here about choosing to respond instead of react, is something I learned when I was 23 years old from Sue Hoya Sellars, my art Matriarch. I will never forget the day She proposed the idea to me that my activism could be a response instead of a reaction.
This very brief podcast is an invitation to
* Choose to respond instead of react
* Rescue your energy and life force from distraction and reaction
* Consciously choose your relationship to what’s happening around you
* Engage with responsibility
love ❤️

Oh my goodness you all. I’m not sure exactly what to say right now that matters, other than that this is the time to express ourselves. I was moved tonight to let you know that I am here and paying attention and going through some of the same things you are. And I’m also as ready as I can be to support us during this time. I’m pacing the floor tonight. These are my thoughts. I want to recommend that you record your own thoughts, even if you don’t share them. Or write them out. Or dance them out in pink sparkle uggs!
I replaced the audio from last night…it felt too vulnerable upon waking. I tried another one that is better I hope.
I am not speaking for the community that I serve. I’m speaking to the community that I serve. What is useful? I’m grateful and what isn’t just compost it.

Happy new year beautiful beings,
I’m so grateful to be sharing tea with the muse with you in 2025. For every single project that I work on, I’ve asked myself, do I still want to do this and am I called to this? Is this still benefiting people? What do I really have to say that really matters right now?
I’m happy to say that tea with the muse is going to continue. I love connecting with you. I have another episode of my memoir coming, but I’m going move it to a different channel so I’ll let you know about that. I realize that my memoir has been hanging me up from the regular tea with the muse style posts that I love to make.
I hope you enjoy this teaching, which is one of my core teachings about thoughts and feelings, waves and particles, and how to prepare the mind to create transformation!
New year blessings to every single one of you! I am truly honored every time you listen, read, comment and appreciate the workings of the muse!

Good morning dear ones! You haven’t heard from me for a bit because I didn’t have any Internet in Mexico. I kept recording things for you but couldn’t get them posted ~ so for today I’m posting a poem that I wrote on the plane, but in the moment, I embellished it as I spoke it. Perhaps it will stir something in you ~ maybe pick up your own pen or magic keyboard, and see what shows up!

Dear Ones, I’m in Mexico for the holidays teaching art and I was thinking of you and our struggles to become. Here’s an approach I learned from my 2 mamas.
* Why asking if you are good enough won’t work out
* How our environment keeps us grasping for belonging
* Considering your ideal question for you as authentic to you
* My proposal of a better question
And yes…there are wrong questions and mistakes.
Loving you
Blessings Shiloh Sophia
Ps: pausing on my memoir for the holidays because it’s a little depressing in this juncture. I’ve recorded the next episode but each time I try to push publish I just can’t yet.
pps this is a photo of me in the hammock yesterday contemplating my ideal question

Dear Ones, These are my thoughts this morning on
how much energy it takes to resist the power that be within and without
the power of rebellion but not just against outer structures but inner ones
the shaping of idenity and how art works with that
and
here’s an invitation to The Quickening - our upcoming training for those who also want to work with artist archetype
Love

Sometimes when you feel a smile in the body and you give the muse the pen or mic, she’ll give a poem to you right in that moment

Good Morning Community,
Wow did I have a big change, it is still taking time to arrive within me…but I wanted to share it with you and perhaps ask you…what is the IDEAL you have been living by and is there unconscious resistance that keeps you from receiving it?
* My ideal has changed….here is the new one
* Invitation to interview with me for The Quickening
* What is your ideal? Has it changed over the years?
* Do you have an unconscious resistances that is informing your conscious ideal
Our community had an exquisite day this weekend of doing clean up at Wild Water Creek on Sonoma Mountain.
Blessings to each of you

Hello everyone! Please forgive me for a little foray into political discourse this past week. I am doing my best to show up for my community instead of going quiet. Because it directly relates to women and people of color and safety, and even the way that we self express, it actually comes into my lane. I will likely be complete with my commentary soon. But for now this is how I’m showing up. Take it or leave it. In a way I am modeling, intentional creativity through sharing my process in community. This is the painting I’ve been working on during the cycle. #wetpaint

Hi community! I know there’s so much going on, but please take a listen on a walk or while you’re painting if you are interested at all in why I am taking a stand in the middle, which is not a neutral stand. This arises out of my concerns for the golden age rhetoric that I’m seeing and also how we are being so divided and just saying, actually that doesn’t need to happen.
Onward with love 💗

Hello everyone! I’m so excited that we’re starting legend today! A seven day immersive experience. I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Ali Stoddard about why legend works and why we do it. Here’s that conversation.
We start today with circle ⭕️ and livestream on November 2.
Honoring this day as a day between worlds and giving things to all of the ancestors who make our work come to life! Shiloh Sophia

Good morning everyone! I am dropping in here with a regular tea with the muse episode with a teaching you will find in all of our work. I’ve reframed the language a little bit with hopes that concept is graspable and actionable. This is part of a series of talks and teachings designed to increase consciousness by one percent through the awareness of the field.
The photo was taken seconds ago, as I was out for a super early morning walk and discovered the a lucky snapshot of the invisible self and her wolf companion out howling in the dark with me…(in water on the sidewalk)
