In this portion of the conversation, Chrys Kyng and I move into the uncomfortable, often unspoken realities of spiritual leadership, medicine work, and what it actually means to hold a shamanic role without turning it into an ego identity.
About Chrys: With 18 years of astrology training and over a decade of ascension and plant medicine experience, Chrys’ matrix-disrupting work includes shamanic ceremonies, medicine retreats and gridwork activations that he facilitates in sacred locations across the globe, and he is passionate about assisting lightworkers and starseeds in activating their soul mission and healing themselves by ascending the false matrix and creating a New Earth.
We talk honestly about jealousy, sabotage, projection, and pedestal-making within spiritual communities, including how these dynamics can surface even among highly respected practitioners. Chrys shares reflections from a documentary about a female ayahuasca practitioner, revealing how deeply human healers are behind the ceremonies, rituals, and myths placed upon them.
The conversation then opens into language, cultural appropriation, and why so many people feel fear or hesitation around calling themselves a “shaman.” We explore alternative ways of naming the work while honoring the archetype, and why true shamanism isn’t about claiming authority but about responsibility, integrity, and continual refinement.
I also share a personal realization from ceremony about choice in healing—when it may be appropriate to process pain through the body, and when it may be more empowering to reflect, witness, and allow someone to do their own work.
Topics discussed include:
- Ego, jealousy, and sabotage within spiritual communities
- The human reality behind ceremonial leadership and medicine work
- Pedestal culture and the myth of the “perfect healer”
- Cultural appropriation fears and the language around “shaman” vs. “shamanic healer”
- Shaman as vessel, mirror, and energetic conduit—not savior
- Empathy vs. “taking on” another person’s pain
- Discernment and choice in how healing is offered
- Why healers aren’t more evolved—just more committed
- Starting the work before feeling ready or perfect
- Projection, accusation, and being labeled a “cult leader”
- Integrity, refinement, and accountability in leadership
- Triggering through competence, visibility, or confidence
- Competition disguised as criticism and spiritual policing
