Aaron Doughty is a spiritual teacher and YouTuber, with a community of over 1.5 million subscribers, aimed at supporting people to expand their consciousness. He went through a spiritual awakening in 2012 that changed his life. That propelled a journey of self-discovery of reading 100’s of books, listening to seminars and going within to look for the answers. Through that journey he let go of my painful past, dropped labels that didn’t serve, and become FREE of much of the autopilot beliefs he was operating from. From that point on, he has felt it's his mission to empower other people to know that they are high vibrational beings that can become FREE of the past pain and past negative experiences. He believes his life purpose is to raise his vibration and level of consciousness and to help others do it too. He believes that deep down, you are also on a journey of raising your vibration and that as you do, it changes the world.
