50. Melanie: What Divides Us—and What Heals Us

In this conversation, I’m joined once again by the wise and wonderful Melanie Huestis for a deep, expansive, and honest dialogue about the ways we make meaning in times of chaos and change. Together, we explore the emotional and spiritual impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including what it revealed about our relationships, our values, and ourselves.

Melanie shares her personal journey navigating social ostracism, grief, and healing—and how her work as a psychic medium and energy worker helped her stay grounded through it all. We talk about the courage it takes to ask big questions, to stay curious when it's easier to judge, and to hold space for differing perspectives without losing ourselves.

One idea that stayed with me long after we stopped recording is the concept of neutrality—not as indifference, but as a way of witnessing with presence instead of reacting from fear or old stories. But that’s just one layer of what we unpack here.

This conversation is an invitation to soften, to question, and to remember that even in times of deep disconnection, there’s always a path back to understanding.
