Episode 27: Helping Spirits, Ritual, and "Nurse Energy:" A Conversation with Cypress Willett

Welcome to the Carousel of Happiness Podcast.

On today’s episode, we meet Seer, Healer, and Artist, Cypress Willett. You might remember I met Cypress on my visit to the Warrior Storyfield in Longmont. And, if you’ve been to the carousel recently, you’ve seen Cypress’s work. High above the carousel, surrounding the ceiling, you’ll find a series of brightly colored stained glass windows made just for us by her.

On the first part of this two-part episode, I sit down with Cypress to talk about her journey from ER nurse to full-time healer and artist. She explains how important ritual can be to connecting us to our helping spirits and guides, she tells me about a pop quiz she gave Archangel Michael, and she surprised me with a very special gift.
