Authentic Pathways S1E13 - Michelle Thomas - The Pursuit of Joy
In this episode of the Authentic Pathways Podcast, host Karin interviews Michelle Thomas, an energy coach who helps professionals align their energy, clear internal blocks, and reconnect with purpose. Michelle shares that she has perceived energy since childhood and explains how a near-death experience about 20 years ago clarified her path to help others reconnect with their intrinsic joy. The conversation explores how societal conditioning and personal stories can obscure people’s “original self,” and how thoughts, words, emotions, and the body are all expressions of energy and frequency. She describes practices for protecting one’s energy from unkindness, choosing thoughts, using body signals of expansion vs. contraction to make decisions, and approaching self-discovery with gentleness rather than judgment. 00:00 Welcome to Authentic Pathways + Meet Energy Coach Michelle Thomas01:53 Michelle’s Early Sensitivity: Seeing & Feeling Energy From Childhood04:14 Did We ‘Lose’ Our Energy?
