From Illness to Intuition: Awakening the Shaman Within with Martha Wright

In this episode of LightBody Radio, Dr. Lara May sits down with Martha Wright, a shamanic medicine woman whose work blends Celtic spirituality, shamanic energy healing, grief rituals, trauma education, somatic awareness, and executive coaching.

Martha shares the deeply personal journey that led her to this work—from early intuitive experiences and spiritual awakenings to a period of chronic illness that ultimately became the catalyst for answering a powerful inner calling. What began as a search for healing evolved into a path of studying Reiki, core shamanism, somatic healing, and ancestral Celtic traditions.

Together, they explore how intuition, ancestral wisdom, ritual, and embodied healing can help individuals reclaim their agency, release stored trauma and grief, and reconnect with their deeper purpose.

This conversation is an invitation to listen more closely to your own inner guidance and explore what it means to awaken the healer within.
