We sometimes search for our Spirit Guides the same way we search the couch cushions for our reading glasses while they're tucked safely on top of our head. What if they've been yappin' to you all along, you just got used to feeling them there? You can read the accompanying story and see pictures for this episode here! I love you! Thank you for listening and sharing!
Can guilt around not sharing our gifts with others cause us to put them on the shelf? Maybe. Let's discuss. I love you! Thank you for listening and sharing! You can visit empathsalchemy.com to find additional offerings!
When leaning into things that haven't yet taken full form, whether it's a supernatural experience or a creative idea, trust who to share it with and give yourself space to trust it. Who will support your adventure and curiosity rather than rain on your parade? The search is the best part. Additional episode and writing for today's episode.

Life is complicated and so are our paths as healers and teachers. Before every gift we have to share comes into its full glory, we're meant to embody the fruits of it for ourselves and that may look to us like we're failing or falling off our path but in reality, we're right on track with turning all that pain and confusion into gold.   The Dunning- Kruger Effect Thank you for listening and sharing!

Making an impact doesn't always look like we envisioned, and following our hearts doesn't mean the path won't have its fair share of briars, and that's alright. When we allow ourselves to take up space, we're gonna shake things up.  I love you! Thank you for listening and sharing! empathsalchemy.com

TY TY I'm a person who endured so many traumas. My triggers are very somatic, so may be it is a starting point for gently exposing self to the sensitivities. Once a person is able to separate what is theirs & what is others, then they may can slowly evolve to that point. Overstimulation or sensory overload can trigger people to agoraphobia & suicidal ideations. Many are not taught how to deal w/ their emotions, so it is important to do inner work. Yet, inner work gets bad before it gets good, so it is something that one have to prepare for mentally first. Many are simply taught to wear a mask & people please or you are selfish if you don't buy into codependency. I agree it is an inside job;otherwise, one will endured self imposed prison of being bound by the past. It took something so simple pain that was the straw that broke my back figuratively that sent me into a tail spin of my DNOTS last year, though I have been going through my awakening for many years;yet, no one around me was g

Thank you! Yes, your comment told me early yesterday that the episode would be out today! Perfect timing too. We're struggling right now so it was good to hear that I'm doing the right things (most of the time) I balled like a baby listening because I am trying, so hard... Hopefully things will align and settle. Thank you again! One Love.

Do you have an episode/material on, living with an empath? I REALLY want to educate myself and understand the day to day for my beautiful wife who is just all feels. She's the kindest, smartest, most perfectly imperfect, HYPER aware person I know, and have ever known. I want to do my part to be her rock like she is mine... cheers..
