From Silicon Valley to Sound Healing -
I was more than delighted to sit down with local medicine woman, sound healer and friend Ali Skiba for this rich and enlightening episode.
She's got wisdom beyond her years and a fierce earthy, rawness about her that surpasses so many in this particular industry in current times.
We find out what happens when you walk away from the “dream job” in Silicon Valley… and follow your heart across 16 countries, into ashrams, cruise ships, yoga teacher trainings and sound baths with 6kg of Tibetan bowls?
Ali Skiba’s story is nothing short of extraordinary.
Once an electrical engineer climbing the corporate ladder in the U.S.A, Ali realised success on paper didn’t equal happiness in her soul. She left it all behind, immersing herself in breathwork, voice activation, plant medicine and the ancient healing of sound.
From cooking at sea to busking on the streets of Australia with her singing bowls, Ali carved a path toward her true calling: helping others heal through voice, breath, and truth.
In this powerful conversation we dive into:
🎙️ Breaking free from corporate identity
🌍 Her global pilgrimage through 16 countries
🕉️ Ashram life and the healing power of Tibetan bowls
🌬️ The medicine of breath and voice activation
🍃 Plant medicine, psychedelics, and spiritual awakening
🎶 The birth of her album “In Spirit” 🎤
Ali is making big waves and she’s only just getting started. This episode may be the moment you discover one of the most important voices in modern healing.
