In the first episode of the 'Surrender is a Verb' podcast, I’m joined by Mary-Ann Illing to discuss the magic that she brings to the world as well as the importance of surrender. Mary-Ann shares her evolution from a psychology student to the founder of 'Empowered Woman,' shining the light on the creation of safe spaces where women can be seen, heard, and felt. Listen in as we connect to Atlantean Energy, evolved beings who already hold the energy of holding everyone in non-judgement and therefore the safe spaces already exist naturally. Together, we explore the role of surrender in personal healing and spiritual growth, touching on intuitive guidance, trust, and the power of being present. Mary-Ann also introduces her upcoming Women's Rites of Passage retreats and highlights how important it is when we surrender to look for support and community. At the end we zone in on the importance of knowing who you are, honouring who you are and letting the light of who you are naturally shine out. You are gift to the world.
