In this episode of Catalyst Conversations, I’m talking with Amy McMullen, a writer, activist, leader, facilitator, and wayfinder. Amy is someone who puts her body, heart, words, tools, and love on the line for the world we are creating.

After pouring her heart and soul into a brand new signature offering, Amy launched Navigator Retreats just weeks before we went into quarantine last March. In our conversation today, we reflect on the major pivots we have all been tasked with traversing over this last year and she shares how she has found unexpected ways to cultivate community, comfort, a sense of nurturing — even in the midst of change and transition.

Amy’s work invites people to disentangle the narratives and stories we carry that don’t serve us, to reclaim our own truth and wholeness, and to find home in ourselves.

Amy shares how poetry and daily practices have helped her find her compass and how she is able to offer these practices to others through her work. ((She also reads some beautiful poems from Rupi Kaur, Cleo Wade, and David Whyte.))

Get cozy and settle in. Maybe even grab your tea and cuddle up under your blankets. ((We do!))
