102. Exploring The Numinous: Material Girl In A Mystical World with Ruby Warrington

Are you a woo-woo, or a skeptic? Do you buy into the world of crystals, psychics, tarot cards, and astrology, or do you find the lack of 'proof' in such practices a barrier to entry? Our guest Ruby Harrington has built a career as the visionary curator behind The Numinous, a content platform based on all things mystical and esoteric. What makes Ruby and her message different from the average sage burning, Sedona-dwelling fairy duster, however, is her unflinching commitment to reality. In fact, Ruby's book Material Girl, Mystical World has served as a modern-day guide to all things spiritual for thousands of discerning seekers from all over the world. In this episode, you'll get a backstage pass into the vast landscape of spiritual practices, and concepts Ruby has explored for the past 20 years. She has a gift for making the unknowable easily understandable and applicable, and during this fun and far-reaching conversation, Ruby makes an excellent case for exploring the aspects of life that exists beyond the linear dimension. If you're already on board with matters of the spirit and want to take your understanding to a deeper level, Ruby is your girl, and this show is sure to hit home. But even if you're still standing on the sidelines of the astral circus with your arms crossed, and your mind cautiously poised in doubtful curiosity, you’ll likely find yourself pleasantly surprised by the ease with which you'll be able to join in on this romp into the void of modern mysticism. Don't forget to pass this episode along to a friend, whether they be on either side of the new age fence. Either way, you'll be doing them, the world, and the show a great service.
