Savior Complex

Send us a textSensual and meaningful inhale,Deep and cleansing exhale that also unlocks the shadow within,Hello to our lovers from this post-election, unseasonably warm Scorpio season thin veil autumn (more on that in the ep). We’re sending you love from our little pod corner and are hoping magic and power are able to find you on this 11/11 portal, and a Full Moon in Taurus right around the corner (on 11/15). In this ep, Kiko and Emily discuss the possibilities of love with ChatGPT, letting yourself be perceived, playing with reality, being ready to shed old identities, hitting your professional growth edge and how to navigate it, coping with physical illness, creativity, and spending time in the mental gym (thank you Michael Jordan). We share the mantras that are fueling us this fall (inspo from both Buddhists AND Denzel Washington), we share the culture that’s sustaining us (Scream the film AND Addison Rae’s Diet Pepsi), and yes, you pervs, we do talk about our sex lives (or lack thereof for some of us). So grab a bacon egg and cheese and lock in, lovers - we’re here for u! Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textIt’s back to school, lovers! Kiko and Emily are thrilled to return to the pod after a summer hiatus, just in time for the transition from fiery, wild Leo season to the cleansing harvest energies of Virgo season. In this ep, Kiko and Emily dive into how they have been Irrevocably Changed by the Summer - spoiler alert, it involves embodiment… gulp. From new fitness routines to new somatic practices to new realizations about intellectualizing feelings, Kiko and Emily explore the challenges and gifts of living life from the neck down. Turns out the body has a lot of wisdom?! Plus, we get into the spiritual codes in Frozen II, the lack of spiritual codes in the new Alien but the utterly masc invention of 4DX, Pluto moving into Aquarius, cold plunges, compassion being kind of funny sometimes, and all the white people in Midsommar. And as always, slide into our DMs @saviorcomplexpodcast at any time, because we are SO back, lovers :) Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textHey lovers! It’s summer, it’s Pride (happy pride), it’s the end of Gemini Season and the beginning of Cancer Season, it’s Solstice time, there’s TWO Capricorn full moons in the mix - whew! In this ep, Kiko and Emily explore the swirling waters of paradox. Kiko opens up about the physical experience of shame yet the freedom of more emotional embodiment; Emily shares about feeling unmoored yet more psychically connected within that lost feeling. And naturally, we talk about horses for a really long time…including the movie Spirit, shadow work, double rainbows, earth magic, Jesus Christ (ever heard of he/him?), and, briefly, penises (a pod first!). So horse girls, pansexuals, and lovers alike, pour yourself a refreshing lemonade, rise up (sit down) and get into a relaxing and intimate summer ep :) And of course, follow us @saviorcomplexpodcast on IG if you haven’t already! :)  Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textIt’s post-eclipse season integration time and Taurus season, and the collective energy is focused on the heavy work of unearthing the truth. So if you’ve been feeling gutted, directionless, sad, or untethered lately… you’re in good company riding along with Kiko and Emily (shotgun)! In this ep, we dive into the narratives around transformation and the reality of everyone being on their own journey. We talk about the wisdom of the body, depression and heartbreak, giving ourselves grace, and dialing into inner strength. We also find time to honor Beyoncé as a living legend, give Solange her flowers too, discuss Caroline Myss and Alita: Battle Angel, and get excited about both roller-skating (new hobby) AND Positive Dissociative Contemplation (new concept). PS…we’re so excited to announce our new social media handle!

Send us a textChirp chirp, it’s spring cleaning time, blossoms! Kiko and Emily are here with a fresh transmission just in time for Mercury Retrograde/Eclipse Season - be careful out there please!! In this ep, we dive into the shimmering radiance and silence of the universe and how to incorporate that energy into our daily lives, letting new life experiences unfold (love, anyone?!), hope as a practice, and boredom as a powerful tool of transformation. We also discuss Dune 2 at length (Skip minutes 40-50 to avoid spoilers!), Avatar the Last Airbender, Cate Blanchett being a really good actress, the concept of “lunch movie” and “being humiliated in a dance class.” Plus, Kiko sings an excerpt from “The Greatest Showman” and we get high on dreams.

Send us a textHappy midwinter, blossoms! It’s Aquarius Season, we’ve just passed the threshold of Imbolc and we’re anticipating the Lunar New Year, so strap in for a discussion of our roles within the human and ecological collective, and our responsibility to our dreams on an individual and humanitarian level. Kiko shares about the angelic being that taught them love (listen to find out who), and Emily reveals her greatest flaw (listen to find out what). We dig deep on the pangs of new romance, news chyron ticker tapes of old storylines and what to do about them, queering the 7 deadly sins, Edgar Allan Poe, and graduation (metaphorical). So tune in, little blossoms - after all, we can’t do this alone 🔥 Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textHappy New Year, Blossoms! It’s 2024, it’s a Universal 8 Year, and Kiko and Emily are both emerging from a Dark Time™ - let’s get into it! Emily shares about her current “nothingness” phase of grief and Kiko fills us in on a recent experience of professional disappointment and the (partially seasonal) depression that ensued. But chin up Blossoms - this ep dives deep on how to move through life’s low points and how to appreciate the wisdom and expansion that emerge when it’s darkest before the dawn. Plus we talk ins and out for the year like people-pleasing (obviously out), debilitating horniness (quite in), and “the system” (out in a BIG WAY). The 2024 paradigm of ease, play, and embracing our Samara-in-the-well life moments awaits you… Kisses!

Send us a textJust in time for the mystery and intrigue of eclipse season, Kiko and Emily are back, little *blossoms*. But we must warn you: if you’re not into weeping or sitting with the reality of infinite unknowable mystery, consider skipping (but also unpack your inability to exist with emotional discomfort???) and if you *are* a frequent SC Pod listener, we know you’re into weeping…admit it…so make a cozy tea, light a soy wax candle, grab a box of tissues, and come snuggle inside our shared cathedral of sorrow, beauty, and GI issues. After the unexpected loss of her father, Emily shows us around the wilderness of sadness, Kiko guides us through the yin and yang of showing up during times of grief and during times of life expansion (through the lens of a eurotrip, naturally). In this episode we open our hearts wide and really ask each other how the hell to love - philosophically and as a verb - and unfortunately we don’t have a single answer, but luckily you don’t have to know, you know? We know you get it baby blossoms. Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

We discuss choosing joy, flirting with life, and taking leaps of faith - kind of perfect for the fun silly summertime, u know? So put on a crop top, chill out, tune in, and let us fill your cup a little - hello, it’s called community-building!

Send us a textHappy Aquarius Season lovers :) In this episode, Kiko and Emily explore the spiritual power of mindfulness and choosing vision over pain, the healing process of reclaiming cycles and falling in love with yourself. It is also revealed that one of them fell on the street recently (humbling), and one of them can’t do a pull up (embarrassing). Guess who!

Send us a textHappy New Year, lovers! At the close of 2022, Kiko and Emily dig into their end-of-year experiences with holiday anxieties and miracles. Kiko recounts how their heart grew “a little bit” through an act of random generosity, and Emily reflects back the layered life lessons she is learning in the process of baking a layered pudding cake (see what we did there?). They both share what they’re *clear* on right now in their respective spiritual journeys, and what they have *fear* around (see what we did there AGAIN? Clear and fear rhyme ^-^). Kiko reminds us we always have a choice; Emily ponders some painful truths around her cycles of burnout and exhaustion. We touch on releasing old narratives, universal pain, the eczema on Kiko’s left shin, Samara from The Ring, Avatar 2, the bad day to good day pipeline, panic attacks at the Park Slope Food Co-op (easy mode), and unconditional love for our families and friends (hard mode). On a personal note: thank you for tuning in this year to Savior Complex. We (Kiko, Emily, and Mikel), have loved working on this endlessly challenging and rewarding project where we attempt to bear our souls, share our spiritual beliefs, and surrender MORE than we ever thought possible. We can’t wait to continue the journey into 2023… and beyond… XOXO Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textHello lovers, how good of you to join us! In this episode, Kiko and Emily dive into the murky waters of the past Scorpio season, and share their findings from the depths, transforming pain into “...it’s ok, I’m ok”. Emily uncovers some old fears and wounds, and ponders how to rest - like, no, like, REALLY rest. Kiko talks forgiveness (ever heard of it?) and prayer (okay, now we’re pushing it) - and how surrendering to both can lead to heart-healing and eye-opening experiences. They cover autumnal gratitude, Emily’s birthday and a new birthday candle, @birthdateco (we love you), the void, the galaxy, and most importantly, aliens.

Send us a textHi lovers, remember us?! Kiko and Emily are back after a summer sabbatical – with reflections to share, of course! Kiko opens up about their summer journey of deeper self-acceptance and belonging through a contemplation and embodiment of gender expression, culminating in an important new hairstyle (center part). They admit they cry easily and that they find crying both powerful and very funny. Emily shares about a traumatic experience and what her healing process has looked like physically, emotionally, and spiritually, navigating numbness and feeling again. Kiko advocates for the psychedelics as a healing modality, Emily guides us through a cosmic breakup, and both decide journaling your way into healing is difficult, and loving yourself more is always possible ;)CW: Assault Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textKiko and Emily venture into the vast spiritual wilds of the Akashic Records with their inaugural guest, Kat Hunt! A practitioner and divine guide to the records, Kat shares about her journey to becoming a spiritual healer and embodying her channeling abilities.

Kiko, Emily, and Kat discuss energetic signatures, spiritual awakenings, living “in flow” of what’s fun, the undeniability of one’s true gifts, and healing the nervous system as a path to authenticity. They also experience a magical visitation from a thunderstorm… so get cozy and snuggle up to this month’s Savior Complex :) And be sure to follow @sunmoonearthsea and visit www.sunmoonearthsea.com for more of Kat’s special and singular offerings.  ◦ have a random question? email saviorcomplexpod@gmail.com◦ subscribe on your platform and follow @kikosoiree @emilyolcott◦ submit to ⓢⓞⓢ (the podcast's anonymous advice segment): here Follow @saviorcomplexpodcast for podcast updates and @kikosoiree @emilyolcott for nud3sWant to ask an anonymous question?

Send us a textKiko and Emily get so excited to dish on all the far out belief systems they’re obsessed with, but somehow, over the course of an hour, never quite get into any of them…BUT…isn’t it all about the journey, not the destination? In their first ever ‘Heart Dump', Emily talks through her recent life funk and Kiko shares their dawning awareness of a tectonic shift in their life. We touch on and tease astrology as a gateway drug, psychic readings as the best bad habit, and testify (confess?) that past lives are a real thing.
