In this powerful episode of Dear Guides, Gabrielle Bernstein sits down with Shawn Leonard to explore the role of spirit animals in our lives. From breaking down spirit, power, and totem animals to decoding signs, dreams, and real-life encounters, Shawn shares Indigenous wisdom on the “medicine” each animal brings. The episode blends personal stories, intuitive channeling, and rituals like smudging and calling in animal energy. Stay until the end for a guided meditation to meet your spirit animal, receive its message, and deepen your connection.Show notes:@Kennedy Harris please share the links flagged below with Kassi
