I bring you this episode in honor of Venus Retrograde in Leo from July 22 to September 3, 2023.

\\n

The first part of the episode is a conversation with my boyfriend Matt Bull. The last Venus Retrograde literally broke us, and then Venus walked with us through a radical repair process that has been nurturing our love since. We talk about the ways mystical "bullshit" has supported us as individuals and as a couple.

\\n

The most bullshit framework of all helped us the most: Twin Flames. It\'s deeply embarrassing to admit, but it\'s true. By fully committing to exploring the responsibility of being twin flames, we nurtured repair and healed in ways I don\'t know we would have experienced if we hadn\'t been willing to play with the possibility.

\\n

Matt has come on Moon to Moon before, and I encourage everyone to check out our first conversation "Coincidence as a Practice," which we reference often. In that episode, we talk about religious trauma, UFOs, and how embracing coincidence yields more magical, mystical living. It\'s my 3rd most popular episode ever. I trust you\'ll enjoy it.

\\n

The second part of today\'s episode (the last 25 minutes or so) is a solo segment where I talk about Venus retrogrades in general and about this one in Leo specifically. I share dates and suggestions for walking through this experience to receive the loving updates Venus wants to offer you.
