 What I'm up to Now

(Updated November 20, 2023)

• I just finished the manuscript for my new book Down from the Mountain: On Being Human after Spiritual and Alchemical Initiation and am in the final editing and design phase of publishing. It took me five years to write this book, and by the end, I began experiencing ridiculous amounts of joy from this labor of love. I’m looking forward to this book baby finding its way to the hands and hearts of my fellow humans who want and need it most.

• I took a six-month hiatus from making any new podcast episodes for Falling Into Soul: An Exploration of Inner Alchemy in order to finish the new book, but am soul-sensing some new ideas for episodes that will explore the alchemical themes of the new book. I hope to start airing again sometime in January 2024.

• After four years of living in Hawaii, my partner and I are back in the US mainland, and my favorite thing in the world right now is cool, autumn weather. I loved living in Hawaii and am grieving her mana something fierce, but I missed the changing of seasons while living there, particularly the folding-in season of fall. (Crunch crunch, you crunchy leaves under my feet.)

• Currently leaning into the colder, darker days by resting and reading more. Favorite books recently:

  • The Myth of Normal by Gabor Maté

  • The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah

  • A Heart That Works by Rob Delaney

With love,

McCall
