Cultivating Self-Love Through Ritual with Shannon Kim
In this episode of The Authentic Creative, I dialogue with Shannon Kim: founder of Self Love Tea, Intuitive Hypnotherapist, Certified Herbalist, and Energy Guide.
Shannon shares intimately and vulnerably about her journey of self-love, including the deep healing of her relationship with her adopted father. Through subconscious healing, herbal wisdom, and energy work, she supports others in re-patterning their inner world and reconnecting with their truth.
We explore the power of intentional ritual, emotional presence, and the sacred art of tending to oneself. Shannon also speaks to the heart behind Self Love Tea: a tool for reflection, grounding, and everyday ceremony.
This is a tender, grounded conversation for anyone on the path of reclaiming their worth and softening into their own love.
