We’re excited to introduce you to our next guest, the electrifying Olivia Howard! She is a Magdalene priestess and psychic intuitive, located in Northern Virginia, and in our episode we learn what that means and what she does. We get into a religious and spiritual conversation that touches on the foundations of Christianity and how the Catholic and Christian institutions developed. Olivia teaches us a bit more about Mary Magdalene and her work as a Magdalene priestess. We learn more about the imbalance of power in the Church and the impacts of that on modern Christianity. Olivia shares a bit about her work with us, and how she helps others tap into their own spiritual authority. We talk about what it looks like to deconstruct and decolonize Christianity, plus Olivia shares with us some of her own journey. She also gets into what it’s like to own a spiritually-based business. Olivia also talks about toxic shame and its relationship to the institutions of Christianity. We discuss the distinctions and complexities of individuals versus institutions, and the interdependence of the two. Zahra and Hien wrap up the episode by further discussing the idea of institutions versus individuals and rave about their conversation with Olivia.
Olivia is a Magdalene Priestess and Psychic Intuitive. She queer and Afro Latina, and has spent the past decade of her life devoted to supporting spiritual, mental, and emotional healing of others.
