S17 Ep186: The Interview: Micayla Deardorff ~ France! You Sneaky Country You! (and Collective Effervescence!)

This week I interview Micayla, who herself has a very fine podcast called PhilosoSHE! Be sure to check it out when you have a moment...BUT, back to Micayla! She is an artist, podcaster, photographer, song writer as well as recovering "cult" member. And she is still unpacking just how this religious group influenced and shaped her, and still does, in some ways... The thing to know about Micayla though, is, she has the biggest and most open heart you could ever imagine! So while she continues to wrestle with her upbringing and the world of her childhood she faces life wholeheartedly-and with incredible bravery, curiosity and generosity of spirit! (You're going to love meeting her, I promise you!!) She tells two stories of miracles as far as I'm concerned this week-one, what happened when she traveled to France to do some mission work...oh, France, how you do get inside people's skins and change them forever you naughty minx! And two, she talks about collective effervescence, which is NOT a band name, but a collective experience we should all have more often!! Head on over to my YouTube channel for the "movie" version of our convo! You can see what her fabulous face looks like! AND, please do consider sponsoring me on Patreon! This little labor of love does cost money, and any sort of support from you would be so appreciated! I LOVE ALL OF YOU THAT DO SUPPORT ME ALREADY BABIES!! Click here to support me on Patreon! I am ever so grateful for each and every one of you and the love that you bring to the show!! Here is your bit of beauty this week-a glimpse of French countryside...and a village that I traveled through as I walked the Camino de Santiago. First, here is the Wiki! Second: here is the beauty! You won't regret discovering a little bit more about this delightful and historic village!
