Episode notes
Becca Akicita is a bodyworker of fifteen years and the founder of Living Balance Wellness in Corvallis.
Born at home in northern Idaho, homeschooled on a homestead with nine denominations on one road. Bible college at seventeen and a solo mission trip to Peru at nineteen that nearly killed her... then handed her a career when a busload of Oregon massage therapists pulled into the village.
We get into: - Leaving a faith without a rupture - "Get rid of the grid work" - the black and white squares of right and wrong - Astrology as a language - Giving imposter syndrome a seat behind the vision instead of the wheel - Energy work as thinning the threads - The Wednesday Wellness Walk, the Practitioners Expo, and a retreat center.
Whether you were raised in something you've since walked out of, work in the healing arts, or just like watching someone find her own words in real time... come sit in this one.
One important note: we recorded this in March and it's reaching you in September. The Wellness Walk dates Becca mentions on tape point at last spring. The Walk is running again now, third Wednesday of the month, and her newsletter is where the current ones get announced.
