Podcast Episode Summary: The Sage Rebellion with Yogini Elder, Jean Mazzei

In this episode of The Wild Temple Podcast, I sit down with Jean Mazzei—a Yogini Elder whose depth of wisdom in yoga, Tantra, and consciousness work has guided countless seekers on their path. Together, we explore the Sage archetype—what it means to embody wisdom, navigate the spiritual path with clarity, and why the journey to becoming a Sage is, in many ways, an act of rebellion. Jean shares insights from her decades of practice and teaching, offering guidance on time-tested practices, navigating resistance in yoga, and stepping fully into one’s wild, wise self. She also opens up about her creative journey co-authoring an oracle deck, the power of mantra, and  and how non-judgement and self love are pivotal pillars for growth.

Throughout our conversation, Jean offers profound reflections and practical tools to support practitioners at any stage of their journey. She also shares two of her current book recommendations, offering fresh sources of inspiration for seekers and teachers alike. You can connect with Jean and her work at FlyingVenus.com, and join us both for our upcoming HerFestival retreat in Mexico by visiting Her-Festival.com. Tune in for a deep and inspiring conversation on wisdom, rebellion, and the evolving role of the modern Sage.
