A woman who identifies as a wolf says that people often have 'misconceptions' about her her 'spiritual and psychological' life as a animal.
Naia Ōkami, 27, from Seattle, identifies as a British Columbian wolf and regards herself as an otherkin therian - a subculture who believe their soul is that of an animal, rather than a human.
In 2017, Naia came out as a transgender woman on social media and in November 2019, she revealed to her followers that she had legally changed her gender to female.
She insists that despite sometimes barking and howling like a wolf, she is aware she is physically human and maintains a 'serious job' while 'spiritually expressing herself' as an animal.
Appearing on This Morning today, Naia explained that by day she works as an online investigator for a non-profit but still occasionally 'wolfs out' in the woods to connect with her animal psyche.
'I think a lot of people have a misconception that I think I am physically a wolf and obviously I don't. I have a serious job, I pay my bills and taxes this is just how I spiritually express myself.'
Naia discovered she identified as an animal at a young age, revealing she began researching real-life wolves after constantly 'dream shifting' into the animal. She made her first public appearance as a wolf on US television in 2013.
Naia says that her identity as a wolf manifests itself in her day-to-day life by trying to connect her regular activities to her spirituality.
When I'm in private or with my friends, sometimes I will wolf out in the woods.'
'When I was in high school, I was a lot more shamelessly expressive, she said. 'I would vocalise, I would howl, that is how I express myself, Nowadays It's a little different,'

Furries... Weird, sexually deviant, cosplaying freaks.
That's why the Dims want to limit my freedoms.
What is her serious job?
What an insanity sh1tshow.
that’s a man baby...
If ever there was a case for lunatic asylums, here it is.
It's a guy who thinks he is a gal who thinks he is a wolf. If he is a wolf he better have his rabies shots or be put down.
I don’t know what to say, except I’m glad he isn’t my neighbor. With this one, the line between real and not real must have been written with Invisible Ink. Both sides have merged. Does he ever visit his family and does he ‘Wolf if up’ in their homes? Imagine him at Thanksgiving Dinner, he would be served from a Dog Dish under the dining room table.
People like her are why the term howling mad was invented.
I identify as a multi-millionaire. Too bad my bank account doesn’t reflect my delusion.
So in her Wolf stage I could call her a bitch and it not count as a curse word????
🤔😏😁
Why does a non-profit need an investigator? Does she/he sniff out the bad guys?
As Matt Walsh said, they expect us to join in and affirm their insanity, and if we don’t, we are the evil ones.
Conservatives should have never ever caved into affirming this craziness.
I had a feral cat in the back yard (yes spayed/fixed with rabies shots) and the cat would go next door to see the dog and leave a present for him. It worked out well.
Stay away from my sheep...bitch.
Can I sic my borzoi on her?
At one point,after a particularly crazy scene,we see the psychiatrist telling his wife (who's also a physician)...in that classic British upper class accent... "there's enough material there for an entire conference".
I think the same applies with this...creature.
I had to look it up - Okami means wolf in Japanese. I’m guessing that is HIS new name? Or perhaps HIS actual last name??
American indians are often associated with a spirit animal - with families being part of the bear clan, etc.
I recall a true story about two Eskimos on their snow mobiles. They both went into the water. One man got out, but his friend was too heavy and couldn’t get out, and rescue attempts failed.
So the one guy is left in the freezing water, and the other guy starts walking back to town.
The guy in the water was from the polar bear clan. He kept visuallizing to himself that he was a polar bear. The other guy walking (freezing wet) was struggling, and wanted to give up a die. But only for his friend did he still get up and keep walking.
He barely made it into town - but many hours later. And then it took the men in the town time to get back out to the lake.
Unbelievably the guy in the water was still alive! I seem to recall that he wasn’t really even all that bad!!??
This MAN is probably just nuts though. Okami is also some online game so perhaps HE thinks HE is the character or something. Like the little boy who told his parents that he was really a girl and he wanted to change his name to a girl’s.
The parents agreed. Except they didn’t like the boy’s idea of naming himself Starfire Rainbow Princess (My Little Pony) so the parents suggested Star (or something like that).
Attention seeker.
Love that movie and love that line.
