Another Way For Them

I absolutely love doing podcasts because I get to learn so much from so many people! This week's podcast was no different. I got to chat with a new friend about her career, health, and ways she is healing. Richelle Troutman was an RN for 22 years before she had to resign because of her failing health. She was first diagnosed with kidney cancer and, to make matters worse, the list of illnesses and ailments kept growing and growing. Her poor body just couldn't keep up with a full time work schedule regardless of how much it hurt her to stop doing what she loved which was helping people.

Eight years ago, Richelle realized something drastic had to change and that's when she turned to energy healing as well as spirituality. She learned that all the people she has helped in her life were somehow still energetically attached to her which was literally sucking the life out of her. Her road has not been easy but she has persevered and has always viewed life as a series of lessons to empower her for what is next. This is one podcast you do not want to miss!

Here are the main talking points:

-Richelle's traumatic entrance into the world as well as her traumatic upbringing.

-All the positions and roles she had as a nurse.

-Understanding what energetic cords are and how Richelle had so many attached to her given her job.

-When Richelle knew something had to give. When she knew her health and wellness needed to be top priority in her life.

-Richelle's first experience with energy healing with intuitive guides.

-Understanding the hands of light modality.

-Barbara Brennan ​Hands Of Light​ book. (Click on the green letters to get your copy today!)

-Richelle's first experience at the OMEGA Institute.

-Why releasing tears is so healthy.

-Richelle's experience with a dark entity.

She's back!!! In this week's episode Angela Lundy and I sat down to talk all about the things that are lighting us up at the moment! To stay on track we split each topic into 15 minute segments so we didn't over-talk on a topic...yes we needed to have a time limit haha. If you didn't listen to my last podcast with Angela, here is a brief bio of all her amazingness🥰.

Some main topics we covered:

-The role chakras and the auric field play on each person.

-​The Chakras And The Human Energy Fields​ By Shafica Karagulla, M.D. and Dora Van Gelder Kunz

-How emotions can get trapped in the auric field.

-How biofield tuning helps to rid the body of trapped emotions.

-Angela's July astrological event update. She talks about the north and south node shifts. Every 18 months this shift occurs and it's happening this month on the 17th.

-Angela's journal prompts to consider with this node shift...

Journal Prompts:

Aries North Node- On July 17th the Nodes change signs from Taurus to Aries. Moving forward, how can you incorporate the themes of balance and leadership? How can you prioritize yourself and your own goals? What are your personal desires for the next 18 months? 

Looking back on the last time that the North Node was in Aries Dec 2004-June 2006. What were the themes going on? How can you be more mindful of this Aries North Node? Look at the halfway point when the North Node was in Libra pushing us to more of a path towards doing for others Feb 2014-Nov 2015.

I had an absolute blast meeting with my friend Angela Lundy this past week! Angela is pursuing a lifelong journey to align with purpose. She used Human Design, Astrology, and Gene keys on herself to gain a really deep understanding of who she is and what she came here to do. In Human Design she is a 6/2 Manifesting Generator, allowing her to live a multi passionate life doing things she loves. Angela would consider herself a life-long learner and more of a guide than a coach. She is leading people through a journey to re-write the stories they tell themselves in order to uncover their true genius.

We have great chemistry together and talked about a lot of different ideas and topics. We even dropped a special announcement in the podcast🙌. Happy listening! Some main topics I cover:

-Talking about the importance of doing multiple self-awareness modalities, i.e. astrology, human design, and gene keys. How they build off each other to give you a better picture.

-Explaining the Solar Return chart readings and why it's so helpful.

-Solar Return is the theme of your birth year. So essentially your next birthday will start that year's theme until your next birthday.

-What are the gene keys and how to find a free reading online.

-Understanding what the North and South Nodes are.

-Understanding that we are powerful beings and we don't have to play the victim. We have the capability to change our lives

-One of Angela's favorite books on dealing with anxiety called  Radical Acceptance  by Tara Brach.

If you missed the last episode (Learn How To Change Your Subconscious Mind Through PSYCH-K) click either of the following links to listen:   Spotify , or  Apple podcast .

My last podcast was a 'solo' effort which I talked about my findings after listening to a Bruce Lipton lecture. Did you know we operate 95% of our day in the subconscious mind which is just mainly habits that we picked up from birth to age seven. The other 5% of our day is operating in the conscious mind, where we solve problems and can be more intentional with each moment. I don't know about you but I wan't to increase that 5%!

This week's podcast was talking with the Director of Psych-K Centre International, Duccio Locati, about his healing journey and practice and how he knew becoming a psych-k facilitator was his life's calling. Psych-k is a modality that helps a person re-write some of their limiting subconscious stories and make better ones. Some main topics I cover:

-What is psych-k and how can it help people?

-How the founder of psych-k Rob Williams brought this healing about.

-Breaking down the parts of psych-k in workshops.

-Understanding the conscious, subconscious, and super-conscious brain.

-What the term 'whole brain state' means and how we install this new conscious belief.

For this week's episode I decided to do a solo podcast. I was feeling very inspired after listening to a lecture Bruce Lipton, Ph.D. gave several years ago. If you don't know who Bruce Lipton is, he is an internationally recognized leader in bridging science and spirit. He is a stem cell biologist, author, and guest speaker on hundreds of TV and radio shows.

Some main topics I cover:

-The experiment that changed everything.

-Understanding that our cells don't dictate us, rather our environment does (our mind.)

-The difference between the conscious and subconscious brain.

For this week's episode I spoke with clinical mental health therapist and self-love coach Karel Chan. Karel has over ten years of experience and practice as a clinical mental health therapist and self-love/mindfulness coach. She spent the first 20 years of adulthood struggling to find happiness in the “right” things: a career, a husband, a family, a home. Regardless of what she had or was still trying to find, she continued to feel empty, disconnected, and directionless. When she finally learned how to give deep, unconditional love to all parts of herself and allow those parts to receive that love, something in her broke open and she found lasting joy, peace, and contentment in herself and her life. She's seen firsthand the power of mindfulness, compassion, and self-love in making lasting change. Now she helps other women heal their relationships with themselves through inner-child work and authentic self-love, helping them live wholeheartedly and with more confidence. 

Some main topics we covered:

-What being "under-mothered" means.

-How that effects us later in life.

- The Emotionally Absent Mother  by Jasmin Lee Cori

-What inner-child work is and examples of how to do it.

-Ways to work with Karel.

While Angela channels answers to client questions during each session, her passion is teaching people to connect to their own intuition.

We had a blast talking about our journeys with the unseen world and how we started to trust our intuition. If you are confused about what your 'spidey senses' are or how to strengthen them then this podcast is for you!

I had the pleasure to connect with a woman named Eliza Schecter. She is an amazing woman who came on my podcast to bravely share her story with addiction. I instantly felt connected to Eliza because her journey made me realize that we all fight forms of addiction everyday in the form of food, social media, exercise, sugar, and SO much more. Addiction can affect anyone from any corner of the globe and from any walk of life. 

Eliza goes deep into her childhood explaining her loneliness and lack of getting attention from those around her. Her struggles with being seen by her family went on for years and eventually led down a dark path. In this podcast Eliza shares:

-How she went from abusing alcohol and then on to drugs

-How she became homeless

-Her number one reason for staying clean today

-Her hopes and dreams for the future

Eliza has started a community on Facebook called 'The Recovery Project.' Anyone can join and get her inspirational stories and reminders of staying clean and living a life of peace and happiness. Eliza's story is one that will stick with me forever and remind me that anyone can slip, but getting back up is always possible.
