Looks Weird, Feels Good: Trusting Your Evolution with Aimée Hoover

Sometimes the biggest transformation isn't finding a new path, but realizing you've become a different person than the one who started walking it. After more than 25 years as a professional wildlife painter, Aimée Hoover finds herself questioning old identities, learning to trust her intuition in deeper ways, and navigating the beautiful uncertainty that comes with becoming someone new. Together, we explore what happens when healing changes not only who you are, but what you're called to create. In this conversation, we talk about trusting yourself when your inner knowing asks you to change, why healing often changes what we're willing to tolerate, and how personal growth naturally reshapes our creativity, our work, and our relationships. We also explore living with uncertainty, learning to stop overriding yourself, and why sometimes the path that feels most aligned is the one that looks the strangest from the outside. Whether you're an artist or navigating a season of change, this conversation is an invitation to trust your evolution. ### In this episode: - Learning to trust your intuition, even when it looks strange from the outside - Why healing changes what we're willing to tolerate - The identity shifts that often accompany personal growth - How our work naturally evolves as we do - Exploring therapeutic psilocybin as a tool for healing, self-discovery, and facing fear - Practical ways to begin building trust in your intuition ### Connect with Aimée Hoover • Website: Aimée Hoover • Instagram: @aimeehooverartist • Substack: Aimée Rolin Hoover Substack ### Links and Resources • ☕ Join Coffee and the Cosmos (a free monthly gathering) • Follow me on Instagram for weekly spiritual and creative content • Book an Awakening With the Animals: Animal Soul Reading with Grace • Visit Awakening With Grace for more info If this resonated with you, please share it with someone on their own path, and leave a review to help others find the show.
