Called to Shamanism: Decoding the Pull You Didn't Go Looking For, with Dr. Amelia R Cohn
Description
Some callings you choose. Some choose you. This episode is for anyone carrying a pull they cannot explain and cannot reason away.
Dr. Amelia R Cohn tells Nazish how shamanism found her mid-career in science, why intuition and evidence can walk side by side, and how to read the signs of a calling without fear.
About the Guest:
Dr. Amelia R Cohn is a naturopathic doctor blending functional lab testing, nervous system work, and two decades in energy medicine. Her own healing journey shaped how she holds both precision and mystery.
Key Takeaways:
- A calling arrives as a return, not a decision. It keeps circling back until you stop arguing.
- Resistance is part of the path. Every hero's journey has a refusal before the yes.
- Intuition and science are not opposites. Ayurveda, yoga, and Vedic astrology all carry observation and precision.
- Read the ordinary signals: what pulls your curiosity, what comes easily, what keeps repeating as synchronicity.
- When doubt gets loud, rest instead of believing the story. Doubt often marks recalibration, not failure.
