  • Fairies, Raising Dragons, and the Missing Feminine Archetype ~ Kim Rhodes Returns!

    Fairies, Raising Dragons, and the Missing Feminine Archetype ~ Kim Rhodes Returns!
    May 20 2026
    She's back! Kim Rhodes, best known as the mom on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and Sheriff Jody on Supernatural, returns for a second conversation with Sarah and Jane, and this time things get even more interesting. Kim opens by confirming what a psychic once told her years ago: she has fae blood. A stranger at a recent convention walked up and informed her that her fairy wings were fluttering, and honestly, once you see her on camera, you can't argue with it. What unfolds from there is a wide-ranging, deeply real conversation about what it means to live outside the box. Kim shares her experience as an autistic woman diagnosed six years ago with both autism and ADHD, offering a nuanced, personal take on the Telepathy Tapes phenomenon and why blanket statements about neurodivergent people, even well-meaning ones, deserve a closer look. She makes a compelling case that autistic people may not be more psychic than anyone else, but they may be less likely to censor themselves when something pops in, and that distinction matters. The conversation winds into Kim's new theory about feminine archetypes: that the traditional maiden-mother-crone framework is missing a fourth stage, the Warrior, a phase she describes as a woman who has survived long enough to stop apologizing for taking up space and start using her gifts as weapons of love. Kim also talks about her life since the pandemic: volunteering four days a week at an animal sanctuary where she has strong opinions about goats (she has a favorite, his name is Greg, and he's an a**hole), a miniature horse named Bob, and a chicken named Jeff. She shares her perspective on animal communication, why animals don't really need to talk the way humans do, and what it's like to be present with animals as they leave their bodies. The whole episode has that quality Kim brings wherever she goes: real, warm, a little unfiltered, and remarkably wise. Key Takeaways: Autism may not confer special psychic ability, but it can lower the internal filter that stops people from expressing what they pick up. Kim suggests the gift isn't more perception, it's less self-censorship, and there's a meaningful difference.The maiden-mother-crone framework may be missing a fourth archetype: the Warrior. The tools of the warrior don't have to look like traditional strength. Kim's weapons are love and presence, and she spent years feeling ashamed that wasn't more exciting before she accepted it as exactly enough.Trauma can hone intuitive gifts. Several voices in this conversation, and beyond it, have observed that learning to read a room for survival wires people for psychic sensitivity. The skill doesn't disappear when the danger does.Animals, for the most part, don't need to be heard the way humans do. Kim observes that animals aren't in a state of disconnect from source, which means the anxious need to be seen and validated just isn't part of their experience. They're already living it.Psychic experience doesn't require supernatural explanation. Kim points out that science already confirms the five senses don't capture everything: sounds we can't hear, light waves we can't see, magnetic fields fish can navigate. Dismissing intuitive information as impossible while accepting ultraviolet light is, she notes, a little inconsistent.Being seen, fully and without conditions, is what most people are actually hungry for. Kim has been called mom her whole life, resisted it, and finally stepped into it, and what she found inside it is one of the most powerful things a person can offer another human being. Direct Quotes: "I don't think autistic people are any more or less psychic than the rest of the population. I just think we might be less likely to judge ourselves for it and more likely to express it." "I'm not trying to glean identity or power from outside sources. I've recognized the ability to create it internally and with my creator." "It doesn't bother me that science has not caught up with my experience."

  • Beyond Dogma: How I Learned to Trust My Own Intuition

    Beyond Dogma: How I Learned to Trust My Own Intuition
    May 17 2026

    In this deeply personal Sunday Solo, Sarah shares something she has been unpacking for most of her adult life: what happens when the spiritual framework you were raised in stops fitting who you are, and what you find when you finally give yourself permission to look beyond it.

    Sarah grew up immersed in faith. Church was community, church was family, church was the lens through which everything was understood. There was genuine beauty in it: the hymns, the stories, the practice of prayer, the feeling of being held by something larger than yourself. And there were also questions, lots of them, that a sensitive and curious kid couldn't quite make fit. Questions she eventually stopped asking, until life made her start again.

    She traces a journey that will feel familiar to a lot of listeners: leaving organized religion behind in college, finding her footing in the material world, becoming a parent and reaching back toward the big questions, and then being confronted by loss. The death of her best friend's six-year-old son, her own child's best friend, was the moment she could no longer stay comfortable in a purely material worldview. Sarah went down the mediumship rabbit-hole looking for answers.

    Along the way, Sarah reflects on her mother's sustaining faith, the compassion she found for her parents as she understood why they made the choices they did, and an unexpected encounter with the late Rachel Held Evans during meditation.

    This episode isn't about leaving faith behind. It's about what happens when you stop outsourcing your spiritual knowing to someone else's rulebook and start trusting the one that lives inside you. If you've ever felt like your beliefs needed to evolve but weren't sure you had permission, this one's for you.

    Key Takeaways

    • Faith is not a fixed target. It evolves with every experience we have and holding space for that evolution is not a crisis of faith. It's an expression of it.
    • The spiritual practices we absorb in childhood can be more resilient than we think. Prayer, presence, the sense of being connected to something larger; those things don't have to be thrown out with the framework they came in. They just may need a new container.
    • You cannot pass on a spiritual awakening. That kind of knowing has to be lived firsthand. The most loving thing anyone can do is create the conditions for someone else to find their own way there.
    • Grief has a way of reopening the questions we thought we'd put to rest. Sometimes the losses we can't make sense of are exactly what leads us toward a deeper truth about consciousness, connection, and what continues.
    • Spiritual gatekeeping, the idea that you need more credentials, more permission, more of someone else's approval to trust your own experience, is worth examining closely. Your direct relationship with the Divine is valid on its own terms.
    • The ultimate litmus test for any belief, rule, or framework: does it move you toward love, or toward fear? That question belongs to you. And you get to apply it to everything.

    Direct Quotes

    "Faith and spirituality aren't a fixed target. They're fluid. They change with everything we experience."

    "I don't think you can pass on a spiritual awakening. That kind of knowing has to be lived. It has to be yours."
