Episode 1: The Origin Story

In the first official episode of The Shaman Circle, AB shares the story behind Lonewolf District; how a lonely season of life in Philadelphia sparked an idea that would eventually grow into a global spiritual community serving clients across five continents. What began as a simple vision for a t-shirt brand evolved into something much larger: a mission to help people feel less alone, reconnect with themselves, and explore spirituality in ways that felt authentic and empowering.

In this episode, AB reflects on the early days of Lonewolf, the lessons learned through years of growth and transformation, and the values that guide this work today. Listeners will also get a glimpse into what this podcast is truly about: spiritual sovereignty, curiosity, healing, community, and creating space for voices and perspectives that are often missing from mainstream wellness conversations.

If you've ever felt like the outsider, the rebel, the seeker, the weirdo, the healer, or the lone wolf in the room, this episode is an invitation into a community where you don't have to walk your path alone.

Welcome to the circle. This is where our journey begins.

Episode 2: My Path to Shamanism

In this deeply personal episode of The Shaman Circle, AB shares the winding path that led from curiosity and spiritual exploration to a life devoted to healing, ceremony, and shamanic practice. Rather than a single defining moment, this journey unfolded through years of experiences, challenges, mentorship, and a growing connection to the unseen world.

AB reflects on early spiritual experiences, the questions that sparked deeper exploration, and the lessons learned while navigating a path that often exists outside conventional understanding. Listeners will hear about the role of intuition, ancestral connection, energy work, and personal healing in shaping a spiritual practice rooted in authenticity.

This episode also explores common misconceptions about shamanism, what the term means in a contemporary context, and why spiritual paths rarely look the same from one person to the next. Through storytelling and honest reflection, AB offers an inside look at the experiences that ultimately led to embracing this work and sharing it with others.

Whether you're curious about shamanism, exploring your own spiritual gifts, or wondering how people find their life's calling, this conversation serves as both an introduction to AB's personal journey and an invitation to trust the unique path unfolding in your own life.

Because sometimes the journey isn't about becoming someone new…it's about remembering who you've been all along.
