In this episode, we sit with Molly Cusick, creator of The Tree Pilgrimage, whose journey began when a redwood sent an image to her mind’s eye during dreamtime. That moment sparked years of listening to trees around the world, and now Molly guides listeners into this world of connection. She teaches how trees communicate through imagery, dreams, and felt sense, and shows how slowing your nervous system can help you attune to their steady pulse, soften into deep calm, and even open the door to encounters with fairies.

Mollly offers a grounded, accessible guide to tree communication filled with tools and exercises you can use today. She teaches you how to ground into your body, visualize roots to connect and receive, and notice the images, sensations, scents, and subtle sounds that form a shared language. She shows you how to adapt your method to each tree’s personality, how to ask for permission, and how to read your body’s yes and no as clear guidance. With warmth and clarity, she invites you to treat the forest as a community of individuals rather than background scenery.

Then she leads you to the edge of the unseen. Molly shares what it’s like when the veil thins: a long-limbed fairy pacing beside her car at dusk, a double “bubble” of energy that requires a spoken request to enter, a watchful fairy riding on her backpack until she leaves, and the sound of drumming rising from the roots of the Shadow Dancer tree. Through it all, she reminds you of the importance of discernment - protecting tender experiences, sharing them only where they’ll be met with care, and trusting the quiet ways your intuition speaks.

If you’re curious about tree communication and the subtle magic of the Nature Kingdom, Molly becomes your guide and teacher in this conversation, offering both wonder and a grounded toolkit.
