What happens when two spiritual seekers come together to discuss their journeys? In this episode of 'The Awaken With Alyssa Podcast', host Alyssa Stefanson sits down with Shaun Zimmer for a heartfelt conversation about their paths to spiritual awakening.

Alyssa, meanwhile, emphasizes the importance of reconnecting with the body's innate wisdom and healing capabilities. She discusses the significance of understanding the menstrual cycle and somatic healing practices, shedding light on how these approaches can foster deeper self-awareness and healing. The conversation also delves into the challenges of transcending the spiritual ego and navigating what they refer to as the 'spiritual matrix'. Both Alyssa and Shaun highlight the value of community and finding mentors who have walked the path before.
They share insights from their respective communities—Shaun's 'The School of Life' and Alyssa's 'Waking the Wild Woman Community'—which offer support, coaching, and resources for those on their own spiritual journeys. Listeners are invited to reflect on their own experiences and consider how these insights might apply to their lives. Whether you're just beginning your spiritual journey or looking for new perspectives, this episode offers a wealth of wisdom and practical advice.
