On this episode, we explore: * The thru-line of the Divine Feminine that Marie has seen and experienced through her many initiations * How her spiritual practice has literally saved her life * The misrepresentations so many of us have been exposed to related to Vodun and African spirituality, and why it's important to name them as such * Marie's secret Vodun family lineage and how she came to learn of it * Why she thinks the Goddess is not returning, but is already here
