In this episode of The Remembrance Codes, I, Susan Sutherland, am joined by Caitriona Reed — teacher, guide, and now a deeply meaningful voice in my life.

What began as an email correspondence became a space of reflection, expansion, and honest conversation… and this episode is an extension of that.

We explore what it means to live and speak truth in a time where certainty is often demanded — and authenticity is often lost.

This is not a conversation of answers.
It’s a conversation of presence.

Together, we explore:

• Spiritual identity and the courage to question belief systems
• Mary Magdalene and the return of the sacred feminine
• The role of uncertainty in spiritual growth
• How to stay grounded in a world that feels unstable and divided
• Authenticity in spirituality (beyond “love and light”)
• Relationships, disagreement, and intellectual integrity
• The impact of culture, conditioning, and collective fear
• Turning inward: becoming a student of yourself

Caitriona shares her path through multiple traditions — Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, plant medicine work — and her evolution beyond fixed frameworks into a living relationship with the sacred.

We also speak about:

• Transitioning identity (including Caitriona’s lived experience)
• Teaching and holding space in a rapidly changing world
• The importance of land, nature, and community in healing
• And what it looks like to walk without needing certainty

This conversation is the beginning of a series — one rooted in curiosity, respect, and the willingness to not know.
