Subscriber-only episode

In this final episode of this four-part series featuring the beautiful book "The Mother Tree", Valerie and guest author Kathryn Knight Sonntag conclude their conversation linking the symbolism of the tree to the balance and unity found when femininity and masculinity are allowed to occupy collaborative wholeness. 


This episode culminates with an examination of the branches of a tree as spaces of dynamic growth, revelation, and transformation, emphasizing that heaven can be found on earth as we each see ourselves as capable of connecting with the divine through the wisdom found in our roots and the courage found in our unfolding life's experiences. 


This conversation is not only a deep dive into spiritual symbolism but also a call for spiritual and psychological wholeness within our Latter-day Saint community, which suffers on many levels from the absence of an embrace of the feminine divine.
