All of us have a shadow-self - the unconscious side of your personality that contains all the parts of yourself that you don't want to admit to having like anger, greed, envy and many others. Over the past decade, shadow work has become a popular way to heal the repressed part of our being.
My guest today, Indra Singh, is well-versed in this modality and she uses unique tools such as flower essences and plant medicine in her practice. She's an intuitive guide for those that are ready to face their shadow, embrace their own wild inner guru and live an authentic life. She is the creator of the international flower elixir brand ‘Silent Moon Imaginarium’ and is on a mission to spread awareness of ‘The Power of the Flower’ and vibrational medicine to the masses.
During our conversation, Indra and I discuss how we can gain personal power by facing our shadow. She recommends healing practices, including the use of flower essences, that we can incorporate into our lives to create a state of balance, joy and peace.

I’ve always had a keen interest in astrology. I can remember reading books on astrology as young as 11 years of age because I was fascinated with the night sky. I wondered what mysteries the skies can unveil regarding our lives and the planet.
After following her YouTube channel for a few years, I contacted renowned astrologer Nadiya Shah to get more insights into this ancient pseudoscience.
Named one of the top 12 astrologers on the planet by French Vanity Fair, who crowned Nadiya a pioneer in video astrology. She is an Internationally Syndicated Astrologer, Author, Television and Internet Personality, and is one of the few people in the world to hold an M.A. in the Cultural Study of Cosmology and Divination, from the University of Kent, United Kingdom. Nadiya’s Youtube channel is consistently one of the top 5 most watched astrology channels on Youtube.
Join me for this conversation, where you’ll learn how to use astrology to gain insights into deeper themes in your life and your character. You’ll also know how your other planetary placements (besides your sun sign) could affect you and how to use that information to create a life of meaning, love and purpose.
