Listen "Before the Story Forms"
Episode Synopsis
What if the new year hasn’t decided what it will become yet — and neither have you?
In this threshold episode of Embodied Soul, Joanne Cary explores how meaning is formed, why we rush to interpretation, and what becomes possible when we hold stories lightly — especially at the turning of the year.
Drawing from dreams, embodied insight, and a profound realization that arrived around the December Solstice, Joanne explores how meaning is formed, how quickly we collapse experience into interpretation, and why that habit — while once protective — may now be limiting our multidimensional awareness.
Together, we question:
• What happens when we decide too quickly what a year is “about”?
• How do astrology and cosmic cycles function as lenses rather than limits?
• What becomes possible when we choose curiosity over certainty?
This is an embodied teaching, a nervous-system-calming transmission, and a gentle invitation to stay open — before the story forms, before possibility collapses.
✨ Best enjoyed slowly.
