Falling Into Soul
Falling Into Soul is a podcast for people going through the deeper, more confusing processes of inner healing and soul awakening. In her signature direct, no bullsh*t, yet caring way, McCall Erickson explores unpopular spiritual truths and the finer nuances of soul processes through the lens of alchemy as she shares her lived experiences and intimate songs she has written along the way.

Ep. 33 Letting Your Best Hopes Go
"One of the hallmarks of maturity is to let some of what seemed like your best hopes go, especially if the tide of life is actually taking them from you and turning your face in another direction." -David Whyte, What to Remember When Waking, The Disciplines of Everyday Life
In this episode, I explore:
- When hopes can be helpful and when they can get in the way
- Why following your heart might not be enough sometimes
- How to identify actual flow
- Learning to recognize the tides of life, the seasons that are ours to live
- The hopes and dreams of the ego vs. the wild will and dream of the soul
- What is the will of the soul?
- The alchemy that prepares us to partner with the unknown and the will of the soul
With love and gratitude for listening,
McCall
