In this episode of The Embodied Podcast, I sit down with the insightful Mackenzie Amara to explore a profound topic: the importance of creating ritual spaces that foster transformation through subtraction. This conversation dives into the essence of transformation—not by adding or manifesting new traits, but by shedding the illusions and layers that obscure our true selves.
Mackenzie reflects on a common trend in psychospiritual circles where healing is often approached with an ego-driven mindset. Many people attempt to control their individuation process by curating personality traits they think will help them “improve” or “manifest” an ideal life. Mackenzie challenges this approach, arguing that true transformation arises not from selecting characteristics to embody, but from letting go of illusions, allowing false selves to burn away, and embracing the mysterious unfolding of what already exists within.
Throughout the episode, Mackenzie shares her journey with this process and offers practical insights on the attitudes and practices that have guided her. She also discusses her role as a facilitator in the upcoming WILD retreat series, where she, myself, and two other women will co-create transformative spaces for participants to explore their own individuation.
Interested in joining us for the WILD retreats? WILD is a series of day-long online retreats designed to help women reconnect with their instinctual selves through somatic practices, storytelling, and community.
