Show Notes

Welcome back to Recipe to the Road Podcast, episode 11. In this episode, we'll be continuing our conversation with Ama as she shares more about her spiritual and healing journey. Ama talks about stepping into the role of a healer, the concept of the imperfect healer, and the importance of balancing masculine and feminine energies. If you didn’t already listen to part 1 you can catch it here.

Balancing masculine and feminine energies

Ama discusses how everyone possesses both masculine and feminine energies, regardless of gender. She highlights the need for men to embrace their feminine energy. Ama believes that a balance between masculine and feminine energies can promote healthy expression and prevent abuse of power.

Fluidity of gender

Ama notes that gender is becoming more fluid and less rigid in today's society. She believes that individuals do not need to conform to traditional gender roles but can instead discover their true selves. Ama suggests that by shedding these roles, people can open themselves up to spirituality and deeper self-exploration.

Healing from Trauma

Ama talks about the importance of facing the hard truths about oneself and the journey of healing from past traumas. She emphasises that trauma does not give one the right to impact other people negatively and that the past should not inform the present.

Ama's Journey of Healing

Ama shares that her journey of healing was a long and deep process that involved Ayahuasca. Ayahuasca helped her gain insight and showed her the need to change her life and start leading. She emphasises that one cannot hide in the medicine and that it is not enough to see the epiphanies; one must take action and change their lives.

The Role of Imperfect Healers

Ama also talks about her calling as a healer. She believes that imperfect healers can still make a difference in people's lives and that the journey of self-discovery and healing is ongoing. By working on herself, she learns more about human nature, which helps her to help her clients even better.
