Yeah. Everyone launches some unconventional side hustle at some point. As a shaman, her track record can't be worse than the average psychiatrist (who have yet to cure any single mental illness they themselves identified). Posing as a theocrat to soak up the money of the gullible is nothing new. Plenty of people in this scene are ordained priests in the church of Satan, UU and others; BFD. The woman managing ARKK claims to take investment advice from God himself. That one, I'd be more wary of.

>As a shaman, her track record can't be worse than the average psychiatrist this is absurdly anti-science and pro-pseudo science POV. 'group shamanic energy clearing' and selling 'spiritual medicines' is absurd than a psychiatrist following clearly debated, adjudicated, well-researched cited scientific procedures. This is not the most horrible of things, but I have a feeling some people would defend GNOME foundation even if they started chucking babies in the air.

  To be fair, all science is not equal. Psychology is basically ground zero for the replication crisis. There's been an insane amount of bunk coming out of that and adjacent fields for decades. When only 20-30% of published findings in a field can be replicated, there's problems.
