Episode 20 - A Sacred Passage: Shamanic Journeying Through Loss and Light
This week we sit down with Rachel Fitzpatrick, a yoga teacher, creator, and host of The FitZen Project Podcast. Rachel shares her life-changing experience of taking her grandmother’s hand and walking her home during a shamanic journey. She offers listeners an intimate look at how this spiritual practice can open space for love, presence, and release at life’s threshold.
Together, we talk about how grief can be both a weight and a portal—an invitation to deepen intuition, connect with spirit, and discover light in the darkest moments. Rachel also shares practical ways to begin exploring meditation, spiritual exploration, and shamanic practices as gentle tools for healing, even if you’re brand new to them.
This conversation is a reminder that even in loss, there are pathways to presence, connection, and grace—and that through sacred practices, we can hold space for ourselves and our loved ones as they journey home.
