May 18, 2025The Filtered Truth: Channeling, Discernment, and Knowing What's Yours
What happens when spiritual messages come through the lens of personal bias, trauma, or unhealed belief? In this candid episode, Seryna explores the nuance of channeling and spiritual discernment. With raw honesty and a grounded approach, she unpacks what it really means to be a channel, how messages are filtered through our lived experience, and why your intuition matters more than any guide, guru, or spiritual teacher.
This isn’t about gatekeeping your spiritual practice. It’s about reclaiming energetic sovereignty, challenging spiritual arrogance, and learning to trust your knowing, even when it contradicts someone else's version of truth.

This Episode Is Perfect For You If...
You’ve started receiving intuitive messages but still question whether you can trust what you’re hearing
You’ve been burned by spiritual spaces that claimed to hold the only truth
You often override your own knowing in favour of someone else’s opinion or authority
You want to feel more anchored, discerning, and sovereign in your spiritual connection
You’re ready for a more honest, mutual relationship with your spirit team—one rooted in trust, not bravado

"I’m not here to be anyone’s guru. I’m here to remind you that you already know."

In This Episode
(03:00) – What it really means to channel, and how your experiences filter the message
(10:40) – Spiritual arrogance and how unchecked ego can muddy the truth
(17:30) – Why discernment is a non-negotiable part of intuitive work
(25:20) – Recognizing projection, bias, and harmful spiritual dynamics
(35:50) – Building trust in your intuition by listening to your body’s response
(46:00) – Energetic sovereignty and why your inner truth matters most

"There is no universal truth that applies to every single person in the exact same way. Context matters. Lived experience matters."

About The Unshakeable Self
The Unshakeable Self is your guide to building unwavering confidence and authentic self-trust. In each episode, we explore practical strategies and powerful insights to help you break free from self-doubt, embrace your true potential, and create a life that aligns with your deepest values.

May 11, 2025Dissolving Duality and Letting Go of Labels: Unshakeable Self-Leadership with Keyla Ohs
What if the version of you you’ve been trying to perfect was never the real you at all? In this fierce and grounding conversation, Seryna sits down with awakening guide and multidimensional space holder Keyla Ohs to explore what it truly means to lead yourself from wholeness and not performance. Together, they talk about the unraveling of identity, the courage to evolve in public, and how releasing duality creates space for self-leadership rooted in love.
Keyla shares her journey from world-class athlete to shamanic teacher, from control to surrender, and from externally defined worth to embodied truth. Her medicine isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about remembering who you are beneath the labels, roles, and expectations you’ve outgrown.

This Episode Is Perfect For You If...
You’re navigating an identity shift and feel unsure who you are without the roles you’ve outgrown
You’re ready to lead yourself with clarity instead of performing for approval
You’ve felt the pull to evolve publicly but fear how others will perceive your changes
You’ve struggled to trust your intuition in moments of discomfort or duality
You’re seeking spiritual community that honours both truth and accountability

"It's not safe to be in a circle where you're not held accountable for your impact on the rest of the web." — Keyla Ohs

In This Episode
(02:54) – From athlete to awakening guide: Keyla’s journey through perfectionism, duality, and discipline
(08:19) – What dissolving duality really looks like and how safety changes the way we receive truth
(16:47) – The unraveling of identity, public pivots, and being unshakably yourself
(24:15) – Discernment, discomfort, and knowing whether fear is wisdom or protection
(32:06) – Losing clients, evolving your medicine, and what non-attachment in business looks like
(41:25) – The web of spiritual community, being held, and learning when not to hold
(52:53) – How to start your journey toward unshakable self-leadership from a place of love and worth

"If you can detach and separate the meaning of discomfort and not align it with fear, and actually get comfortable being uncomfortable, you are going to be able to get to where you feel you are meant to be." — Keyla Ohs

What happens when the parts of you that have always needed control finally let go? In this deeply personal episode, Seryna takes us inside her MDMA-assisted therapy session—a seven-hour journey into memory, tenderness, and truth. With vulnerability and grounded wisdom, she unpacks how trauma shaped her survival self, what it meant to surrender control, and how that single session began rewriting her nervous system’s oldest stories.

You’re curious about MDMA-assisted therapy and what it feels like
You’ve been doing deep healing work but still feel stuck in old patterns
You’re ready to meet the younger parts of yourself with love instead of judgment

"That tightly wound, stressed and frustrated person I sometimes become is not my truth. This love—this is me."

In This Episode
(04:10) Why MDMA was the right choice for healing complex trauma
(12:45) Understanding the survival self and how it’s born from unmet needs
(22:30) What happens when control goes offline and the protectors step aside
(36:00) Being held, witnessed, and feeling safe to be little
(47:50) How deep integration work helps rewire your nervous system
(58:20) Loss, grief, and why the most loving thing we can do is receive
(1:10:40) The truth that lives underneath trauma and why you are worth knowing

In this raw and resonant conversation, Seryna sits down with transformational speaker and grief recovery specialist Iman Gatti to explore the messy, sacred work of reclaiming your truth.

April 20, 2025Loving Yourself In A World That Profits Off Your Shame
What if the most revolutionary thing you could do was love yourself loudly, fully, and without apology? In a world that profits off your shame, choosing to stand in your truth isn’t soft or cute, it’s sacred defiance. This episode is a fire-lit love letter to the bold act of becoming unshakably you.
Seryna pulls back the curtain on the systems that benefit from our silence and explores what it means to choose yourself over performance, perfection, or approval. From capitalism and patriarchy to the ways we’ve been conditioned to shrink, this episode will challenge you to unlearn what’s been handed down and reclaim who you were before the world told you who to be.

This Episode Is Perfect For You If...
You’ve ever felt like your worth is tied to your productivity or appearance
You’re exhausted by performative self-care and want something deeper
You know you’re playing small but feel scared to take up space
You’re tired of being nice, quiet, or agreeable just to be accepted
You’re ready to reclaim your time, energy, and truth from the systems that benefit from your shame

"Loving yourself in a world that profits off your shame is not soft. It’s not sweet. It’s a fucking revolution."

In This Episode
(03:25) – How the self-care industry sold us a watered-down version of self-love
(10:40) – The hidden cost of hustle culture, burnout, and the pressure to constantly improve
(17:15) – Why oppressive systems rely on your disconnection from yourself
(24:30) – The rise of censorship, burnout, and spiritual fatigue in the face of global crises
(32:50) – How your survival self keeps you silent, small, and seeking permission

(44:00) – Reclaiming your voice, your needs, and your right to take up space

“You need to stop asking the systems that benefit from your self-doubt to validate your worth. Because they won't. Because it's in their best interest not to.”

April 13, 2025The Messy Middle and the Angels Who Hold You—with Nicole Schoen
What if the “messy middle” of life isn’t a setback, but an invitation? This episode is a soft, soul-deep invitation to release the pressure to have it all figured out and instead meet yourself with compassion where you are.
Seryna is joined by Nicole Schoen, Reiki Master-Teacher, Angel Intuitive, and Medicine Mother, for a conversation that feels more like a warm embrace than a lesson. Nicole shares how decades of experience in the beauty industry led her to the deeper work of healing from the inside out, and how she now helps others reconnect with their own inner wisdom and light.
Together, they explore what it means to walk with your Angels, why the path to peace often looks messy, and how to stay grounded when you're unraveling and becoming all at once. If you've ever questioned your worth in the in-between or felt unsure how to navigate the unknown, this conversation is a balm for your spirit.
