Unfortunately, there was a little bit of a problem with my sound quality and my microphone while recording with Lisa for this lovely interview.

Please do not let my subpar sound quality detract from the gorgeousness of our interview. My sincerest apologies to your ears. We will be back with our usual clarity next week. Thank you so, so much for being here. I appreciate you.

We got a juicy, juicy little juice box for you today in terms of an episode, an absolute legend of a guest on Tarot for the Wild Soul Podcast today. And we're getting into such good stuff. And before I introduce our guests, before I talk about what we get into, two reminders for you. Number one, on October 11th, from October 11th to the 16th, I'm going to be teaching a five-day retreat in Rimec, New York at the legendary Omega Institute. Five-day retreat all about Soul Tarot and you're going to want to be there for it. Why? Weekend retreats are great, but they're crunched as fuck. Five days, you get to learn easy breezy. It's an actual true getaway, a true retreat. It's going to be absolutely exquisite. The best time you could go in terms of the leaves and the weather and the vibes. I cannot wait to be there. So please join me if you can, if you've been feeling called to it for Tarot for the Wild Soul at Omega Institute, which again, just starts in a few days on October 11th in Rimec, New York. And for anybody who feels called, the doors are open to my offering The Soul Tarot Practitioner Training, which is a heart-led, trauma-informed, deep, deep mentorship with me over eight weeks online, extremely intimate community. There are not too, too many folks who do the mentorship training. I can have hundreds of people in a course and the practitioner training, you're going to get that individualized attention if you're able to be on the live calls together.

It's truly a mentorship for people who want and desire to be able to read Tarot for others. And the reason that I mention it is one, enrollment is open and will only be open for another week and a half. And two, it also closes on October 16th.

But also, you only have two more days to apply for a scholarship. So this goes out on Wednesday. This is, it's time. So we close down the full and partial scholarship application process on Friday end of day. So if you want to take part in this mentorship and you need the help to be able to do it, would absolutely love to help you if it's in alignment. So please do fill out that application. I will tell you, full scholarships are extremely limited. For this particular offering, partial way more expansion and it's 50% off of the full price of tuition.

The Soul Tarot Practitioner Training runs from October 19th to December 14th. We meet once a week, live on Mondays from noon to 2 PM Pacific PT, West Coast time in the United States. They're all recorded and so you can watch at your leisure. If you can join live, that's awesome. But yeah, everything about the retreat, everything about the training, everything about all the links you could ever want and need for everything I just mentioned are in the show notes. So yeah, those are my announcements. Now, let's get to the nitty gritty. Okay. So again, we have a legend in our midst this week, and that the incredible Lisa Stardust is our guest on the podcast this week. I'm going to talk to you about Lisa. You definitely know Lisa. Even if you are never heard of Lisa, you've definitely written something Lisa has wrote because she's pretty much in every magazine and does beautiful and lovely and fun, ranging from all the places, from super deep to really sweet and fun and funny.

So much writing in People, in Refinery29, in Vogue, all the places. But we're going to get there in a moment. And I'm going to give Lisa her full bio, her full do. Such a lovely person. And I'm sure it will not be the last time that we have them on the podcast. But I was inspired. Lisa has been, we've been wanting to get her on the podcast. I've been wanting to get her on the podcast for forever, especially the last few months. We recorded an episode and then Chase had a family emergency. And it was so time specific that we actually literally were not able to air it. He had to fly out so quickly that we weren't able to air her episode. So it's become a lost episode. But now we're back. And while I don't want to make it about like, oh, it was totally meant to be that Lisa had to come out, record another episode, blah, blah, blah, because I don't want to romanticize that. And I will absolutely acknowledge her grace because she was so graceful about it and lovely. But I also do want to say that I'm a little grateful for the timing because we are getting into, in today's episode, this Venus Retrograde that is kicking the ass of everyone I know. Everyone I know, I don't always feel Venus Retrogrades that powerfully.
