The Medicine of Purpose | Michael Heartsong of Heartsong Healing | Guest Host Alex Doran

Michael Heartsong was in a coma. His family was saying goodbye. In that moment between worlds, he asked Spirit one question: if there's a purpose to my life, show me now. What he received changed everything.

In this special episode of Tap Intuit, host Ravyn RB welcomes guest host Alex Doran, an intuitive guide, tarot reader, and certified Reiki Master, for a layered conversation with Michael Heartsong Cutter, a shamanic healer and IIHA Certified Life Purpose Hand Analyst based in Denver.

Recorded directly after Alex received her own Life Purpose Hand Analysis from Michael, this episode carries a rare in-the-moment integration quality you can feel from the first question.

Michael's path into this work is its own kind of medicine. A childhood shaped by chronic illness and a conservative upbringing in western Colorado. Years of seeking through Chinese medicine, bodywork, yoga, martial arts, and the alternative scene. A vision of three years of preparation that would lead him to his teachers.

From Walking Thunder in the Navajo Nation to John Lockley in South Africa to Itzhak Beery and the Yachak lineages of Ecuador, Michael speaks to what it means to be apprenticed, to honor the carriers of wisdom, and to live in right relationship with the ancestors of this land.

Throughout the episode he returns to a central teaching:

Our gifts and our traumas are intertwined. Sensitivity is the medicine. Surrender is the door. And how we feel in our work, our relationships, and our lives is the most important data we have.

This conversation is for anyone in transition, in expansion, or simply curious about what it means to live life on purpose.
