Tarot Isn't Fortune-Telling — It's a Mirror for Your Soul | with Karina La Puma [Video] Video
Finding Harmony PodcastShow Notes
In this episode, Harmony sits down with Karina for a conversation about the wisdom that's been inside us all along. Karina explains why she never uses tarot to predict the future — instead, she reads the cards as mirrors for the archetypal patterns already shaping our lives. They talk about magnetic creation, the eight-year fear block that kept her new book on a shelf, and the Terma ritual she teaches for manifesting from alignment instead of force. Along the way, Karina does a live tarot reading on air, and the conversation turns to AI, synchronicity, and what it really means to trust your own inner guidance. Guest: Karina La Puma is an author, intuitive guide, Reiki master, and Western astrologer (practicing since 1979). She's the creator of “A Toolkit for Awakening,” an eleven-book series weaving together tarot, astrology, mythology, psychology, and the hero's journey, and the designer of her own digital tarot deck. Her newest book, Awaken Magnetic Creation: Manifesting Your Dreams, is out now. In This Episode
Why the wisdom we're seeking isn't out there somewhere — it's already inside us Karina's Sicilian and Calabrese roots, and her family's restaurant-and-bar life in small-town Pennsylvania How curiosity about astrology and tarot in her twenties turned into eleven books Inside “A Toolkit for Awakening” and the tarot deck that took 30 years to finish Karina's daily three-card ritual — body, mind, and emotions What “magnetic creation” means, and how it's different from ordinary manifestation (20:51) The eight-year fear block that delayed her own book — and the broken ankle that finally stopped her in her tracks AI as a creative co-creator: where it helps, and where Karina draws the line A live, on-air tarot reading for a listener facing a creative crossroads The Terma method: a ritual for burying the past, the future, and the present to manifest from essence, not form Archetypes, synchronicity, and what happens when the veil between inner and outer life gets thin

What if your symptoms aren't the problem? What if they're a message? Harmony Slater and Russell Case welcome Allison Lorne, a certified nurse midwife with 25 years in women's health who guides women through perimenopause and menopause as a sacred passage rather than a set of symptoms to silence. Allison is also a spinal energetics practitioner, so the conversation moves between the clinical and the energetic: what hormones are doing, what the body is asking for, and how to come home to it. Allison explains why she calls perimenopause "adolescence in reverse," how the history of hormone therapy shaped what women were told for two decades, and why emotional symptoms like anxiety, irritability, and sleeplessness often arrive first. She shares her own first symptom, why it took her years to recognize perimenopause, and how a lifetime of intuitive healing work led her from hospital nursing to private practice. Along the way: the grandmother hypothesis, a coven on California's Central Coast, dandelions, and a simple practice for tuning in to your inner wise woman. In this episode

Description Everyone is talking about nervous system regulation. But what if the goal isn't to be calm all the time? In Episode 337, Harmony Slater and Russell Case talk with Laurie James, author of Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go, host of the Confessions of a Free Bird podcast, and a certified somatic practitioner and coach who works in the Somatic Experiencing approach developed by Peter Levine. Laurie shares how caring for aging parents while raising four daughters, and the end of a 26-year marriage, led to a season of overwhelm and then to somatic healing. She explains what Somatic Experiencing is, why a healthy nervous system moves between activation and rest many times a day, how to build capacity instead of chasing calm, and why you can heal without retelling your whole story.
