Indigenous Wisdom and Intuitive Healing with Modern Medicine Woman Sara Eaglewoman
In this beautiful episode of The HEAL Podcast, I am honored to interview one of my personal healers, the remarkable Sara Eaglewoman, an Indigenous Medicine Woman and Intuitive Healer. Born with powerful gifts, Eaglewoman approaches her work with deep gratitude, recognizing it as both a blessing and a profound responsibility. Her divinely guided healing, teaching, and counsel are highly sought after, and she readily brings her gifts to the trenches of today’s society. Whether helping people through a major life transformation, assisting those with illness to heal or transition, or counseling everyone from industry leaders to politicians, celebs, and athletes, she clears the obstacles inhibiting the soul’s expansion. As a bridge to the multi-dimensional, Eaglewoman guides and aligns people to their healing, to their success, and/or to their next level of self-realization by changing the “outcome” to “become."
Over the course of this episode, we delve into a number of fascinating subjects including how she came to know of and embrace her gifts, how to determine if a healer is pure or misaligned, what is a soul grid, and how to shift trauma triggers to create lasting change and true growth. We also explore the soul as a continuum, karma's role in shaping who we are, and Eaglewoman’s take on plant medicine.
