Description

Welcome to the Recover Your Soul™ Community

Join Rev. Rachel Harrison on a transformative spiritual journey of healing and awakening with the Recover Your Soul Podcast. Rooted in Recover Your Soul™  A 9-Step Process to Healing and Awakening, this podcast offers a practical and spiritual path to freedom from codependency, people-pleasing, and the illusion of control.

Each episode invites you to release what no longer serves you, discover deeper self-awareness, and remember your wholeness. Drawing from the timeless wisdom of Al-Anon and the 12 Steps, along with New Thought Metaphysics, spiritual psychology, and personal experience, Rev. Rachel shares teachings that help you move from fear and striving into peace, authenticity, and empowered faith.

Whether you’re healing from family dysfunction, seeking balance in relationships, or simply ready to live more fully aligned with your soul, the Recover Your Soul Podcast offers guidance, inspiration, and community for your awakening journey.

You don’t have to identify with addiction to benefit from this work - only a willingness to let go of control and open to your true spiritual power. Rev. Rachel’s teachings center on loving detachment, forgiveness, inner peace, and the grace that comes from aligning with your Higher Power.
