That seems to be the trick.
My .bash_profile is here:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
# Honor per-interactive-shell startup file
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then . ~/.bashrc; fi
# shepherd
if [[ -z $DISPLAY ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]]; then
export MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1
export GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=/home/joshua/prog/gnu/guix/guix-packages/
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share:/home/joshua/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share:$XDG_DATA_DIRS
# this may fix a bug that I have with termite confusing backspace as space in guix environment
# export TERM=linux
shepherd -c /home/joshua/.config/shepherd/init.scm &
exec dbus-run-session sway
fi
#+END_SRC
