We explored how understanding one's Venus placement in the natal chart can provide insights into personal purpose and growth.

This week on The Wellness Matters Podcast I sat with such an amazing soul! Her name is Erica Cordeiro. She walks us through her traumatizing childhood, which included her dropping out of school at the age of 12 and running away, only to later end up in prison at the age of 22! These life challenges would have knocked anyone down but not Erica. Sure she had moments of doubt but she didn't sit in them long because she has been lighting the world on fire from the moment she was released from prison.
This conversation is a game changer for everyone. To top off the best conversation, Erica, who is also a channeler, decided to channel my higher self during the podcast. To say I was moved is an understatement. What a gift Erica is to the world. Happy listening.

Summary
This week on The Wellness Matters Podcast, I had a personal conversation with a long time friend of mine, Ashley Hamilton. I thought it would be nice to have Ashely on because she recently went through a spiritual awakening. I had her ask me some beginner-type questions about spirituality because, honestly, I have been studying and living this life long enough where I sometimes forget what the beginning felt like. It was a fun and interesting way to conduct our conversation. We talked about topics like:
Why people may hesitate to start their healing or spiritual journey.
The difference between religion and spirituality.
The shadow side of spirituality.
Soul contracts.
Takeaways
The fear of judgment and the belief that one doesn't have enough time are common reasons why people hesitate to start their healing or spiritual journey.
Religion and spirituality are different, with spirituality emphasizing going within and reclaiming one's power.
Discernment is key in spirituality, as individuals need to determine what feels right for them and what doesn't.
The spiritual journey involves shadow work and navigating the dark aspects of oneself, but it also leads to growth and transformation.
Finding balance and grounding oneself are important in maintaining a healthy spiritual practice. Soul contracts involve choosing challenging life experiences for the purpose of growth and learning.
During times of emotional intensity, it is important to practice grounding and self-care.
Each person's spiritual journey is unique, and it is not necessary to leave behind loved ones who may not be on the same path.
Introducing mindfulness practices, such as deep breathing, to children can help them regulate their emotions and develop self-awareness.
Allowing each person to follow their own spiritual journey is essential, as everyone has their own unique path.

Summary
In this week's episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I had a very personal conversation with a dear friend of mine. Her story will touch the hearts of everyone and I'm so lucky she was brave enough to share it with all of us! My guest this week is Seanna Chiara. She wanted to talk about how her life's ups and downs brought her to rock bottom fast. She ended up at a point where her body was self imploding and waking up every day was dreadful. Seanna is now on a mission to tell anyone who will listen that if she can heal her body as well as her mindset then anyone can!
This conversation was near and dear to my heart because I was able to witness the unfolding of her purpose and magic. Sometimes we all need a good story to set us on the right track for our healing. Now she is helping others heal (you can find her website further down) and find their purpose in life. I dare you to listen to this podcast and not feel called to move your healing needle.
Takeaways
Pain is pain, regardless of whether it is physical or emotional. Seanna's story of self-healing can inspire others who are suffering.
Authenticity and self-love are crucial in the healing process. Embracing our true selves and accepting our flaws can lead to transformation.
Changing our mindset and language around mental health and emotions is essential. Normalizing all emotions and avoiding labels can create a more inclusive and supportive environment.
Soul contracts play a role in personal growth and healing. Understanding that we have chosen our experiences and relationships can shift our perspective and empower us.
Self-healing is possible for anyone, regardless of their background or knowledge of wellness. It is a journey of self-discovery and self-empowerment. Labels can have a significant impact on individuals, especially children, and can limit their potential.
Reclaiming personal power and self-love is essential for healing and personal growth.
Finding one's way of talking to oneself is important, as traditional affirmations may not resonate with everyone.
Exploring alternative healing methods and trusting one's intuition can lead to profound transformation.
Having hope and empowering oneself can create a positive shift in one's life.

Summary
In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I met up with Aypril Porter, a human design life coach and author of the book Parenting the Child You Have. We discussed the importance of living an authentic life and using human design as a tool to understand ourselves and our children. We explore the different energy types in human design (generator, manifesting generator, projector, manifestor, and reflector) and provide parenting tips for each type. Aypril emphasizes the need for parents to understand and honor their child's unique energy type and to create an environment that supports their individual needs.
In this conversation, Aypril and I discuss the importance of understanding a child's human design chart and how it can help parents better support their children. By doing so, they can give their children the best gift of allowing them to be their authentic selves.
Takeaways
Living an authentic life is essential for avoiding burnout and dissatisfaction.
Human design is a tool that can help us understand ourselves and our children on an energetic level.
Each energy type (generator, manifesting generator, projector, manifestor, reflector) has unique characteristics and needs.
Parents should honor and support their child's energy type, providing the necessary space, invitations, and information.
Understanding and embracing our children's energy types can lead to better relationships and a more harmonious family dynamic. Understanding a child's human design chart can help parents better support their children.
Each child has a unique energy type, defined and undefined centers, and inner authority that influence their behavior and decision-making.
Parents should trust their inner-knowing and parent in a way that is authentic to themselves and their children.
By allowing children to be their authentic selves, parents give them the best gift.

Summary
In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I interviewed the talented Gallyahna Aakhen, a soul contract reader. We discussed the concept of soul contracts and how they can help individuals understand their soul's purpose and karmic patterns. Gallyahna shared her personal journey into this work and explains how she decodes a person's name to reveal their soul contract. The conversation also touches on the awakening process, the role of empaths, and the potential for incorporating this knowledge into education. Overall, the episode explores the idea that our souls choose specific experiences and relationships in order to learn and grow. She explains that our souls choose our parents and life experiences to help us fulfill our purpose. Gellyahnah emphasizes the importance of healing and forgiveness in order to open the heart chakra and live in alignment with our true selves.
Gallyahna reads her clients' soul contracts by figuring out the sound frequencies of the person's birth name. It is a way to decode the person's higher self or soul-self's plan for their life. This is a must listen!
Takeaways
Soul contracts are agreements made by our souls before we incarnate, outlining the experiences and lessons we will have in this lifetime.
Soul contract readings involve decoding a person's name to reveal their unique talents, goals, and karmic patterns.
The awakening process often involves deconstructing our lives and questioning societal expectations in order to align with our true selves.
Empaths, like those with the 11-2 soul destiny, are highly sensitive individuals who absorb the emotions and beliefs of others.
Incorporating knowledge of soul contracts into education could help children understand their unique gifts and navigate their emotions more effectively. Our souls choose our parents and life experiences to help us fulfill our purpose
Healing and forgiveness are essential for opening the heart chakra and living in alignment with our true selves
Exploring our childhood interests and passions can guide us in discovering our soul's purpose
Any passion or interest can be monetized with creativity and determination

Summary
In this week's episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I spoke with Laura Lemmey, a licensed clinical social worker, about her practice and the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. We discuss how EMDR works, its origins, and its effectiveness in treating trauma. We also touch on the importance of embracing change and the role of protector parts in the healing process. In this conversation, we discuss the theme of not feeling good enough and the impact it has on individuals, especially teenagers. We explore the concept of the negativity bias and how it limits our ability to tolerate and believe in good things. Laura also discussed the role of trauma and PTSD in shaping our beliefs and behaviors. Laura explains the benefits of EMDR therapy and the importance of deep, uninterrupted work in the healing process. She emphasized the need for self-exploration and curiosity in order to move towards healing and personal growth.
Takeaways
EMDR therapy uses eye movements to calm the amygdala and reduce fear responses.
EMDR therapy can help individuals who have hit a wall in their healing journey and are looking for additional tools.
Change can be scary, but it is necessary for growth and reaching one's full potential.
Protector parts in the psyche are necessary but can be given new jobs that are more developmentally appropriate. Many people, especially teenagers, struggle with feelings of not being good enough.
The negativity bias is hardwired in our brains and limits our ability to tolerate and believe in good things.
Trauma, both overt and covert, can have a lasting impact on our beliefs and behaviors.
EMDR therapy is an effective approach for healing trauma and changing negative narratives.
Deep, uninterrupted work is essential for meaningful healing and personal growth.
