SALT, SKIN & SOVEREIGNTY - The Podcast
Â
Some truths deserve to be said out loud.
The desire you keep defending.
The anger beneath your understanding.
The life you want—and the truth it asks you to face.
Join Leah for myth, shadow, sacred rebellion, and the uncomfortable questions that follow you long after an episode ends.
Come curious. Bring your contradictions.

LISTEN TO THE PODCAST
I’m Leah—a writer, podcaster, and guide fascinated by what happens when we finally tell ourselves the truth.
Especially the truth that interrupts a perfectly convincing explanation for why we’re “fine.”
For more than twenty years, I’ve explored psychology, mythology, and philosophy. For over a decade, I’ve guided people through loss, shame, difficult choices, and the unsettling realization that the life they’ve built no longer fits.
My own life belongs in that inquiry, too. I know how easily strength becomes a hiding place—and how much courage it takes to admit what you want.
Here, we use old stories to ask urgent questions. About desire. Responsibility. Belonging. The rules we inherited and the choices we still get to make.
Bring your curiosity. I’ll bring questions worth staying with.
