Virtuish is an exploration of concept & culture. Conversations & storytellings between friends and strangers discussing creativity, community, consciousness, psychology, social justice, mindset, politics, relationship, mental health, and spirituality.
Episode 17 is our December check-in with Ashley & Kelsey. We're both in very new phases of life - a new home, a new baby, and the new states of being that come along with these upgrades. We're dropping in to give you a window into each of our processes as we learn to navigate what life is currently throwing our way. We discuss birth plans, having our basic needs met, learning to feel comfortable with vulnerability, when your shit catches up to you and when you're forced to slow down and surrender.

16. Learning Discernment with Ellen Geis
On Episode 16, Kelsey has an extended conversation on the topic of “gurus” with Ellen Geis. They reflect on listening to recent exposes about Teal Swan, lack of accountability in the “New Age,” and how learning about the Satanic Panic gave Ellen a new understanding of current happenings. They share candidly about their personal experiences exploring new age teachings over the course of the pandemic; experiences of guilt, and shame, and confusion. Finally, Ellen shares her biggest takeaways and a valuable dose of wisdom for others who are curious, questioning and trying to figure out things for themselves.

15. Recognizing a Wannabe Guru - Listener Q&A
On episode 15, Kelsey & Ashley are following up with listener responses to their inquiries about the concept of a guru and our varied experiences with them. They really want to know, what makes someone qualified and trustworthy as a leader, and why do we seek out people who we think know better than we do and give them such power over us so easily? Why are we so innately attracted to confidence? How do we become more discerning and remain open without getting taken advantage of?
They discuss common themes that come up in the submissions, laugh a little bit at the idea of the “wannabe guru”, and do their best to pull apart the complexity and vulnerability of the nature of seeking and wanting to make deeper understanding and meaning of our experiences.
