(#014) Allie Michelle - The Poetic Dance Between Life and Death

The renowned poet, Allie Michelle, joins us for a vulnerable chat about self-expression, alchemy, heartbreak, and surrender. She's the best-selling author of "Explorations of a Cosmic Soul," and "A Rose That Blooms in the Night." Allie Michelle is a healer who hosts yoga, breathwork, meditation, and artistry workshops and retreats around the world. Before connecting with her wider mission as an artist, she was known as a social media influencer that traveled to exotic locations. Most recently, Allie has teamed up with the American model, Alexis Ren, as Co-Founder of We Are Warriors, an interactive platform for women that aims to bring female leadership into the crypto and metaverse space. They've even launched a groundbreaking project known as "Sirens," a unique collection of 10,000 NFTS supporting mental health, education, and eco-villages that live on the Solana blockchain.  Through the written and spoken word, she is inspiring others to find the strength that it takes to be both soft and strong and leads people back into her heart. She is now in the process of writing her first fantasy book, “Legends of Lemuria,” so stay tuned for that.    0:00 - Allie Michelle Intro 3:45 - Impact of Our Mothers on the Spiritual & Healing Path 8:00 - Surrendering in the Creative Process 11:45 - Creating Honest & Sacred Work 13:15 - Getting into the Crypto and Metaverse Space 17:15 - Creator Burnout & Legacy 24:00 - Process of Alchemy 25:30 - Speak Your Truth 32:00 - Heartbreak, Breathwork, Identity 38:35 - When We Avoid Death, We Avoid Life 45:50 - Allie’s NFT Project - Sirens 52:00 - Sharing Live Poetry 1:03:15 - The Final Trio  Guest: Allie Michelle, Award-Winning Poet  Website Instagram  We Are Warriors Sirens World NFTs Allie Michelle's Books  Host: Emilio Ortiz Instagram | https://bit.ly/35fkcJx Twitter | https://bit.ly/35hMMda TikTok | https://bit.ly/3lKjs3W  Watch Video Interviews on YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/emilioortiz  Special Offerings to Support the Show: ✦ Receive 15% off any purchase from Ra Optics, the world's best blue-light-blocking glasses.
