28. Feed Your Ancestors, Not the Algorithm with Caro Gómez

What if the secret to authentic creative expression isn’t about finding your niche, optimizing your funnel, or chasing the algorithm—but about honoring every facet of who you are while staying deeply rooted in where you come from?In this episode, I’m joined by Caro Gómez—a shapeshifting, award-winning artist, ancestral mentor, and shaman’s apprentice of the Maya Q’eqchi’ lineage—for a conversation that will shift how you think about creativity, business, and belonging. We explore what it means to be a shapeshifter—not flaky or inconsistent, but someone who remembers that fluidity is ancestral and that our power lies in honoring all the lineages we carry.We dive into:• Shapeshifting as ancestral wisdom — why fluidity is power, not flakiness• From hummingbird to moth: embodying joy, shadow, and creative truth• Reclaiming the witch as an archetype of multidimensional wisdom• Accessible rituals to begin connecting with your ancestors today• Joy as revolution — and how to hold grief and celebration together• What it really means to feed your ancestors, not the algorithmCaro also shares how her mother’s 40-year ritual shaped her understanding of ancestral connection, and why she believes the future belongs to those who remember where they come from.Meet Caro:Caro Gómez is the creator of Shapeshifter, a podcast and philosophy devoted to those who refuse to fit into one box.
