What story is asking to be reclaimed in your life right now? Is there a thread be it joy, grief, or creativity that’s weaving itself through your spiral of healing?

This episode is a masterclass in embodied integration. Shelby revisits her reconnection to dance how a prompt cracked open a story she hadn’t told before: that of a girl who learned to love herself through movement. What began as a wayfinding insight has unfolded into ritual, aliveness, community, and even spiritual reclamation. She speaks about dancing with her inner teenage self at an archetypal coronation and how dance has become her new form of breathwork.

Khara reflects on the depth of grief after the death of her dog, Bindi, and how that experience cracked open layers of unprocessed emotion from miscarriage, identity shifts, and motherhood transitions. We talk about how ritual and presence made space for healing.

Themes of slowing down, practicing presence, and releasing the addiction to “the chase” re-emerge. Khara shares a realization that her pattern of always seeking “what’s next” has softened, especially since becoming pregnant again. She describes a day where she flowed between rest, creation, and nourishment recording five hypnosis sessions (finally acting on a long-held desire), cooking, and cleaning all without force.

The conversation spirals into boundaries, self-witnessing, emotional rewiring, and the deeper truth that transformation often revisits us in familiar forms but with new wisdom. Shelby beautifully describes this as not circling back but rising up a spiral staircase, seeing the same “signs” with new eyes.
