Sacred Openings: How to transform through loss and change - Kate Barsby

Be Mythical

This week’s show is with Kate Barsby. Kate is mother of four children, a deep feeler and thinker, a soul guide, a priestess of sacred openings, and a guardian and explorer of all things which guide us towards the sacred, and into the mystery.

She holds spaces for women who want to explore who they are on the deepest level, so they can live in a way which honours and expresses what they find there: their truth, their soul, their heart, their spirit.

Kate’s work is currently done through two portals: Sacred Openings and The Cherished Mother.

In this episode, Kate and Lian, through heartfelt stories and deep reflection, invite us to consider the concept of 'sacred openings'- those moments of transformation that arise in the wake of loss, change, or transition.

Kate shares her personal journey through the devastating loss of her daughter, revealing how this experience became a catalyst for healing, self-discovery, and a deeper connection to the sacred.

Together, they discuss the coexistence of grief and joy, the liberation found in acceptance, and the spaciousness needed to navigate life's complexities.

Finally, Lian and Kate emphasise the importance of curiosity and holding space for others, showing how compassion and witnessing can create a path to healing, connection, and an enriched understanding of life's sacredness.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

• Grief as a Sacred Opening: Grief, though profoundly painful, can serve as a transformative teacher. Accepting and honouring our emotions creates space for sacred openings, where healing and personal growth unfold.

• The Duality of Grief and Joy: Even in the depths of loss, moments of joy can arise, revealing the rich, interconnected nature of life. This duality invites us to embrace all emotions as sacred parts of our human experience.

• Our Unique Medicine: Discovering our medicine is a deeply individual journey. By staying curious about our experiences and exploring the tools and practices that resonate with us, we uncover new possibilities for healing, self-discovery, and living a sacred life.
