When you are named after the great gnostic Goddess Sofiah it’s a little bit of a given that you may embody some of Her qualities of wisdom and creativity throughout your life. And this is certainly the case for my guest on The Priestess Podcast today - Sofiah Thom. Sofiah is one of the few women I’ve met that has actually been deeply raised in a spiritual tradition that aligns with the world of the Goddess from a young age and it’s something that you are about to find permeates throughout everything she does as a global priestess and entrepreneur. In particular as a performing artist and temple arts dancer Sofiah is passionate about how we can embody the power of the Goddess deep within our bodies and she shares her insights on how we can all do that in an empowering and beautiful way.
Having conversations with beautiful fellow Priestesses about the world of the Goddess totally lights me up! It’s a shared language and passion and experience that I find so uplifting and so it was to be the same with my guest on The Priestess Podcast today - Tia Johnson. Tia is a serious goddess devotee and works with Her in all aspects of her business. And today we riff on numerous goddesses including Frejya, Aphrodite, Lilith, Kali, Bridget and more about how influential they have been in her life and the magick she continues to weave and co-create with them in her business and own podcast now. Get ready for a goddess half hour of power!
When we dive into the world of spirituality and all that can open up for our hearts and souls, it can be very easy to gloss into and over all the aspects of spirituality, religion and worship that may in fact not be that glossy at all. For some people, their experience within the realms of their spiritual choices and exploration is one that is filled with deep isolation, questioning, heavy expectations and even trauma. The journey from and through that, to not just a sense of, but a totally sovereign embodiment of, spiritual freedom, can be a rocky one. My guest on The Priestess Podcast today - Madison Morrigan - bravely shares her story of finding spiritual freedom from the oppressive religion she found herself in as a teen and young woman. It’s a journey filled with sadness, anger and frustration, but also hope, power and grace - all words that are fitting to describe Madison and the gifts she is bringing into the world now through her loving presence.
