Client Testimonial - Meet Alex! We're going BTS of Alex's transformation following our recent Akashic Records + Zodiacal Releasing Consult
In Episode 145, we're going BTS with one of my incredible clients who is sharing her raw unfiltered experience and transformation after our 90-minute akashic records & zodiacal releasing consult. While Alex isn't new to the spiritual space, prior to this session Alex had had minimal experience with accessing her akashic records, limited experience with basic astrology and no awareness or experience with zodiacal releasing. These sessions are designed to meet you where you are at!
Prior to our session Alex felt a little stagnant but couldn't put her finger on what exactly was causing the stagnancy. She was struggling to trust her own internal guidance and felt like she was seeking some reassurance that what she was feeling was real and could be trusted. Since our session Alex has experienced profound shifts in her day-to-day. She has noticed reduced stress around the deep desire to figure out her bigger purpose and instead is finding way more joy in just the day to day and living in the present moment because she could see the proof behind how life is unfolding for her. Alex shares so much more within the conversation and I'm certain we can all see a beautiful piece of ourselves within Alex's story!

[00:00:00]
Hello, hello friends and welcome back to another week on the podcast. So this week we have a little bit of a different episode and I'm really excited to be able to share this conversation with you. So I know most of you by this point have probably heard enough about my story and how I left my corporate job six months ago.
And I feel like for the last six months, I've been just trying to figure out what works. I've gained a lot of random skills, many of which I've shared a little bit of the behind the scenes with on the podcast, but, , it, it's It can take a lot to figure out like, okay, I'm acquiring these new skills and there's something to this, but I don't really know what it is.
And it can be really hard to be patient when trying to figure out how they all fit together. And so a couple of weeks ago, I feel like things finally started to click and I was like, Oh. This is how these skills can fit together. And this is the magic that can come out of it. And so I just went through my master attunement for Reiki.
So [00:01:00] I'm now a Reiki master and I'm going through the program with a few other girls. And so I thought, what a better way than to try out this new offer, with some of them to see how it works. And so today you guys are going to meet my friend, Alex, and we are going to talk about her experience.
Doing these new sessions that I'm launching and the sessions are a combination between Diving into your akashic records, which are your soul's records They go back for infinite amounts of time for as long as your soul has lived and they can tell you all sorts of things about like Okay. What can I do better with my health to what is my life's purpose and why am I here?
And so we combine that with zodiacal releasing, which is an ancient Hellenistic, astrology technique. It's known as traditional astrology, which is also known as predictive astrology. So in the new age, you might hear a lot of people talk about psychology based astrology, and they say like, , astrology isn't predictive.
But these ancient timing [00:02:00] techniques actually are pretty predictive, and they're kind of a new world, and although they've been around for 2, 000 years, they've only really started to be, to come back into the mainstream and be revived within the last decade. And so I kind of stumbled across this.
It was a skill that I learned. fairly quickly, even though it feels like most people do not pick this up pretty quickly. And so I knew that I have to be doing something with it, that there's a reason this has come back easily to me. , but I'm not a professional astrologer yet. Maybe someday I will be, but I don't feel like I'm there quite yet.
And so I felt like I had to find another way to be able to bring this to you that made it more accessible because doing it on its own and like looking at these random dates in your life's timeline on its own just doesn't really feel like it makes sense to a lot of people and so I've been trying to figure out ways to make it more accessible and one of the ways that I've started to do that is through incorporating tapping into your Akashic records to leverage some of their [00:03:00] wisdom in tandem with your zodiacal releasing.
So, to set the stage just a little bit on Zodiacal Releasing, think of your Zodiacal Releasing as the, uh, chapter books within your life story. So you have different chapter books within your health and body, you have different chapter books that unfold within your, uh, life's purpose, your mission, your career, and then you have different chapter books that, unveil themselves within your relationships.
And within each chapter book there are of course different chapters of time that you move through. Think of these as like one to two year time spans. And then within each chapter you have your paragraphs. So these are your like month to month. So like this could be a time frame of anywhere from one month to three months in time.
And then within that you have your sentences which are your day to day. Today, I'm going to introduce you to Alex. I'm going to let her tell you a little bit about herself, and then we're going to dive into from me introducing this random idea and [00:04:00] having no awareness to any of it, to tapping into all of this, going behind the scenes and just giving you a clear look at what a session like this might look like and what maybe you could take away from it as well.
So welcome to the podcast, Alex. I'm so excited to have you. Thank you. My name is Alex. Um, I am a Breathwork facilitator. And a Reiki practitioner as well. I'm going through the Reiki Master Program, um, with Allison. And I found somatic healing a few years ago, and it has just completely transformed my life.
I used to struggle really badly with anxiety and depression, and I've found that through somatic work, I have been able to Really heal my relationship to anxiety and to all of my emotions and to my body. And then finding Reiki has even deepened this knowledge of somatic work as well. Um, and so, yeah, that's kind of what I do.
I help a lot of women with anxiety. Um, I help a lot of women just find their way through [00:05:00] the tricky parts of life and reconnect to themselves, reconnect to self love, reconnect to their body. Um, yeah. Amazing. So when I randomly jumped into the group chat a couple weeks ago, and I said, Hey, I have this new thing I want to try out.
And it includes the Akashic records and some astrology. It's this old technique known as, um, zodiacal releasing. What awareness did you have to anything within those realms? And what was your first impression? Like where, where did you start your, your, um, curiosity around all of this? Um, I know, I knew a little bit about astrology, but very basic, like, I know, you know, the, the three rising sun, moon, all of that, and I don't even know that much about that, but I just know some information about myself, I've known the time that I was born, so I've always, like, been interested in reading little descriptions, but Zodiacal [00:06:00] Releasing, I had I didn't even know what that was.
Like, I was like, that sounds great. I'll do it. But what is it? Like, I really didn't know. Um, I knew about the Akashic Records a bit. I've had a reading before, but once again, didn't even dive into that deeply. So this was all honestly really new to me. Yeah, that is what I'm finding with a lot of the clients that I've had so far go through this is they don't have a lot of awareness to it.
And so if you're somebody that's listening and you're like, I don't even understand what any of this is, just know that like that is a totally normal place to be starting at. I, this. Uh, podcast is aimed at a spiritually curious community, a spiritually skeptical community, people that are just starting to dip their toe in what it means to find self awareness on a deeper level.
So I know, you know, you've all heard me talk extensively about human design on the podcast and we're starting to bring more astrology into things. But these are all tools that can be paired [00:07:00] together to go deeper into your self awareness, which can bring you a lot of tools that can help you move, uh, through moments in life that maybe you feel really stagnant, maybe you feel really stuck.
So I would love for you to just reflect on, prior to the session, like what are some things you felt like you were really struggling with and you, what were you hoping to gain from the session? Yeah, um, I feel like I've been going through a little bit of that stagnant energy. I have all of these tools, all of these modalities, and I've been working a lot with anxiety, but I feel like I'm on the Precipice of something more like I just couldn't quite place it and of course, I'm trying to be patient I'm trying to like it's gonna come to me But there's also this piece like there's something there and I'm just not quite able to like piece it all together And so that was just it's just feeling a little frustrating and so I've just been feeling like I know that my business is [00:08:00] really ready to flourish and But I also need a little bit of guidance in that as well.
And it didn't feel like guidance in the sense of like business coaching and, and, uh, mentoring, which I do, like, I have all of that support, which is amazing, but it felt like I needed something like guidance in a way of, My inner self so guidance with the Akashic records or guidance with like my life's plan That's what it felt like I was missing like I have the mentorship I have the people that I can go to But I wanted just like a little bit of help in turning inward and figuring out like what's really going on in here What is it that I really want?
What is it that I'm really meant to do on this earth? Not just like what makes sense, but what am I meant to do? So that's kind of where I was at Yeah, and I think that's something that I have found when tapping into the Akashic Records specifically is They are really good at giving you guidance on [00:09:00]where you are in this moment without it feeling overwhelming So I know a lot of people when I have brought up the Akashic Records They're like, oh, I don't know if I'm ready to know my soul's purpose or it can feel really overwhelming because there's just a lot like It's One, it's really unknown.
Two, like you really can't explain it to people. It's something you just kind of have to experience and you don't understand the depths of which something or information that comes out of the Akashic Records is really going to hit for you until it does. And it might be like the most surprising thing that actually hits for you.
Um, I know, and we can dive into this a little bit more as we go through the conversation, but I know you had some like word, just like single, like, word choices that like came through that you were like, wow, that deeply resonates. Um, and so I think that when you are starting to become spiritually curious or spirit, you know, and you're like starting to dabble in this, and that's exactly what it is, is you're kind of looking for that, like, what is my roadmap?
What, It goes a little bit beyond, like, I think a lot of times [00:10:00] we start working with coaches, and it's like, okay, who, who do you want to be? Like, distill yourself down to this, like, one sentence or this one paragraph, or what do you really want out of life? And I think a lot of times that can feel really intimidating and really hard to answer because you, like, see all of these pieces, but like you said, like, they don't really form a cohesive story for yourself yet, and so you don't really know how to ask for further help.
And so I think That that is something that I've been finding with a lot of these sessions that I've been doing is that what we do is have you pick three questions and I send you a list of sample questions. So if the picking questions to ask the Akashic Records sounds intimidating, you have a list that you can choose from that are going to be supported.
by your astrology. So astrology is a bunch of data points, right? So it's telling you data points about your story. It could tell you about what season of life you're in right now. It could tell you that you're going through a hard [00:11:00] transit. And that's why this one particular area of life feels really hard right n could show you who your t is, which is going to tell planet is actually having your life in this, this p is going to be different which is therefore going part of your life than th Um, so I think it can add a lot of like those data points that like you said, like, it's not like it's telling you 100 percent like you're going, but it gives you another level of awareness that can help to guide that path.
So I like to think of zodiacal releasing too, as like your energetic forecast. So it can show you when you're coming up on a busy and defining period of time in your life. And for some people that busy and defining period might be challenging and for others, it might be a really supportive time. Some people, it might be neutral, like my busy and defining times in life are usually a pretty neutral feeling.
Um, it can also show you when you're like, [00:12:00] what specific dates and specific timeframes where that are really important to your life's path and your life's purpose. It can reveal, uh, what are known as completion periods. So a period of time in which you are going to take something from start to finish and bring it to completion.
I have found that this can be really helpful if you're navigating like a health crisis or something to kind of know what that's going to, you know, like, okay, I'm going through this challenging time, but it's going to last two years and then we're going to, and then something, you know, more positive is going to happen or something's going to shift, or I'm going to move through a pivot, a change.
And, and from there, I'm going to be able to reevaluate and something, you know, like, I feel like it gives you permission to like. Live more in the moment and have more of that trust and surrender around life. So I know for you, we focused really in on, um, career, Souls mission, your purpose, um, how you're more aligning in this point of time.
So, um. When we start the process, I send you a questionnaire that [00:13:00] allows you to fill out your birth information in a secure way so that it is entered into a safe and secure portal. I don't ever want anyone to worry about their information being accessible to people it should not be accessible to.
And then you have a questionnaire that allows you to fill out a little bit about your expectations for the session, what you're hoping to gain, and to pick some questions. Did you feel like You had all of the information you needed to be able to pick questions. And did you feel like during the session that the questions really aligned with what you were trying to get out of it?
Like once we had really gotten into what the records had shared? Yeah. Yeah. I feel like The information that you gave me, especially being someone that really didn't know much at all about, um, these tools, I felt like it was explained beautifully. And then the questions, like you said, it can seem a little intimidating, like, Oh, I've got to come up with questions to ask, but the questions that you gave me, I think I picked two of [00:14:00] those, but then it sparked another question that made.
Like that felt like I needed to ask, but I didn't even realize I wanted to ask that until I saw the list of questions. So it's all laid out very easy to follow. Um, and then even like the paperwork that you sent to prepare for the session, like, even though I opened it and I didn't really know fully yet, like what all of it meant, but it was just, it got me excited because I'm like, wow, look at all of these things that we're about to go through and it just kind of gives you this feeling like there's going to be a little bit of clarity that comes through today and that's just such a beautiful feeling.
Yeah, I love that. I think a lot of times too, when I've gone into sessions with somebody that does like a consult kind of session, so whether that's with an astrologer, a human design reader, um, you know, any of those modalities where you kind of book a session with somebody that they're going to give you information about yourself.
sometimes I think the not like not knowing what to expect can make it feel really anxiety ridden. So I did a session with a professional [00:15:00] astrologer not too long ago. And before I got on the call with them, I didn't like communicate with them a single time before I jumped on the call with them. And I found myself having this, like, I just like felt the contraction within my body before getting on the call.
And I think part of it was like, I'm excited. Like, I know this is going to be really helpful for me, but then I also at the same time was like, but I have no idea what I'm getting into. I have no idea if the, like, the three questions on the form that I filled out when I signed up for the session are going to Like, how are we going to go about those?
Like, am I going to get the answers to my questions? Like, I definitely felt that in my body. So even though I know you guys are not necessarily experts in any of this, sometimes I think it can just be really grounding to have information in your hands that you can read through. And then when we're going through and learning about these new modalities and topics, um, you can kind of like in your brain reference back to like, Oh yeah, I saw that in the, in the sheet.
[00:16:00] So I can go back to that after yeah, yeah, I absolutely agree. And I just feel like you, you were there every step of the way, even before we hopped on the call. So it really did feel like by the time I got on the call, I was just like ready for the information to be given to me. And I didn't have that like contraction of like, Oh, like, what are we gonna do?
Like, I'm so confused. So I really appreciated that. Amazing. So we next, you know, after we, we get on the call, we go through a little bit of like basic astrology, because I know that that is not something that everyone knows, or it's intuitive to like, perhaps, you know, like you were saying your sun, moon and rising signs, but what does that mean?
Um, Um, there are some other really important parts in your chart that I think can be really telling for people like your North and South nodes. Your North node is kind of where you're going in this lifetime. Your South node is what comes easy to you and what you've maybe done in past lifetimes. Um, there's also Chiron who's.
I believe he's actually an asteroid, but he is known as the wounded healer. I know I've [00:17:00] talked about living on my Chiron line before on the podcast quite a few times. And so he can be like one of your most karmic life lessons depending on where he falls in your birth chart. And I think that there are some of these things that, sure, you might get them if you go to a general astrology reading or consult.
But a lot of times when astrologers are sticking to the basics, they might miss some of those more nuanced spots in your chart. And I think in terms of knowing your zodiacal releasing and your energetic forecast and what does your life's timeline look like, I think it can be really supportive to know some of these more nuanced spots in your chart, especially heading into 2025.
We have a lot of, um, if you follow astrologers at AllOnline, you've probably heard many of them reference a lot of the outer planets moving for the first time you. In many, many years, um, we just went through Pluto moving into Aquarius. Pluto's been in Capricorn for the better part of, I think it was the past like 17, 18 years.
And [00:18:00] that story has unfolded for each of us in a little bit of a different way. And so I think just being able to ground you in a little bit of information around how to, like, I include your birth chart, how to read your birth chart, and then some of these more nuanced pieces that maybe you're not going to get in your basic astrology reading, but actually are really supportive, especially when we're tapping into things with the Akashic Records.
Like, what is my soul's purpose? What is part of my mission in this period of time? What are the tools and practices that can be really supportive to me in this season of life? It can be really helpful to know that information, even if It feels really overwhelming at first, and I always give people the option if they want to record the session.
Some people would rather just take notes. and not have a session recorded while others, I know like yourself, really enjoy having a recording to go back to. Yeah, it was so much information and it's so helpful to feel like I have this, like, almost cheat sheet to go back to on myself. Um, and I love the piece that you [00:19:00] said about like, Now I feel like I'm able to be more in the present moment because there was information that came forward of like a completion period happening and that I is like I'm on the precipice of something new and something different.
So it kind of It didn't even like tell me a lot of stuff that I didn't already know, but it like confirmed these things that deep down I did know but maybe didn't have the trust in myself yet to like really just settle and be like, okay, there is something big happening. So it's okay to just be in this moment and like watch it unfold.
So it was like really this beautiful. connection of like trusting myself and what I know to be true and then seeing like the Astrology and the akashic records like really nearing that back to me. So it was just a beautiful experience Yeah, I love that. You said that I think um A lot of times when people hear like, well, do I really want to know my life timeline?
Do I really want to know my story? Do I really want to know how this unfolds? Because with that, and you know, [00:20:00] one of the questions that I include in the questionnaire is like, do you have the capacity to hold, like, have you done enough of the work on yourself to have the capacity to be able to hold good and bad?
hard information because I know like right now in my zodiacal releasing, like I can see a hard season coming up for myself in 2025. Now I also can see patterns that can help me prepare for that hard season. And for example, like I know that I have a challenging health period coming up, but I can also see that the last two times I went through that period, that like same, um, uh, same pattern of signs.
I had an inflammation crisis. Like I, the, one of the times it was, I was dealing with a lot of allergic reactions to antibiotics and medications and that kind of thing. Um, back when I was in college. And then the second time it happened, I was dealing with a lot of gut health issues. Um, and that was when I started to really become really curious about being proactive with my health.
And so I don't know [00:21:00] what's going to happen in 2025, I would be silly to get caught up in what is going to happen in 2025 because I could make myself sick with worry about what could or could not happen in 2025. And at the end of the day, we all have free will. These are simply awareness tools that help us to make smarter decisions.
Um, you know, something that my Akashic records has told me is that my diet is part of my problem right now. Right. And I know that my diet is not in a great place. So that wasn't like you were saying that wasn't news to me, but. When you have someone else reflect it back to you, you take it like sometimes your body internalizes it in a different way.
And it gave me a little bit of a kick in the butt to start really paying attention to how I'm taking care of my body, what I'm doing to lower inflammation. Um, am I managing my stress appropriately? Uh, am I managing my cortisol levels? Like there's a lot of things that it gave me to think about that I didn't necessarily.[00:22:00]
have in my purview until I saw, Hey, look, this is coming up and these particular signs equal inflammation. So it's probably something inflammation related. Um, so I love that you said like, it's not stuff you didn't already know, because I think sometimes there's this fear that it's going to tell you about this big life shakeup and you're, you're not going to be ready for it, or you're not going to be, you're not going to have the capacity to hold that.
But I do think it can be really informative and a really good awareness tool that can really help you to take more inspired action, um, and to feel fairly validated in what you're feeling internally. So exactly what you were saying about like, you know, you're on the precipice of something, you can feel it deep inside.
And some of these things are things that you've known for a while, but we all deal with so much noise in the external world that it can feel so hard to know. Do I trust the external? Do I trust what's inside of me and [00:23:00] is what's inside of me? What's best for me? Like it's all, it's all a journey for sure.
Um, so getting into, you know, what your, what the session was like for you, what are some, what are some things that you think would be important for somebody that's considering booking a session to consider or things that you felt like That you really took away from the session that maybe you didn't anticipate, um, that could be really supportive to someone, especially heading into the new year, if they were to book a session now or beginning of the year, that could help to set them up for, to be in a stronger position for themselves moving into the new year.
the better part of the year. I think that it really helped me with like my day to day. I think that when we book maybe these kind of sessions, we think we're going to have like these huge things about like the future, but I feel like it helped me so much with just like the day to day. Like for me, a lot came up around like energetic hygiene, which makes [00:24:00] a lot of sense because like I'm doing breath work.
I'm doing, I'm doing Reiki. I'm, I'm really like in like the somatic space. And also working another job. So it's like, how can I always make sure to like, stay in integrity with these tools and like every single day, like treat my energetic hygiene as I would with like any other thing in my life. Like, you know, our, our regular hygiene, like we take that very seriously, but it's like, am I, it was like really like showing back to me, like every single day, am I really like diving deep into my energy, keeping it safe, cleansing it.
And so it just helped me like so much. Like See, like you said, it's not like I didn't already know this, but it was just such a beautiful reminder. Like I'm focusing so much on, Oh, what's going to happen in the future. Like I need to know right now, like what's my purpose. But it's like every single day now, I feel like I have this like.
Opportunity to just focus on me and my energy and like, see where that takes me. And then the clarity I have [00:25:00] at the end of the day from that, ends up giving me so much more than just trying to get this huge revelation that's gonna happen like, you know, next year. And so I think it just, you know, Um, and then just going into it, realizing that like there, there will be like probably a lot of little small changes that can happen, which actually is really encouraging because these small steps are what gets us to the big things.
And so just like going in with an open mind like there might be a little thing where you're like, Oh, maybe I could work on that a little bit and it feels a little like, okay, but like knowing ahead of time like I'm here to, I'm here to work on myself. I'm here to become the best version that I can. Into the new year.
And so whatever comes up for me, like I'm just going to be open. I'm just going to be ready to receive whatever advice comes through, even if it feels a little challenging to hear. Um, and just like Letting there be that excitement, letting there be, you know, like, I really like that I've been like journaling a bit because now that I know about [00:26:00] like the dates and things like I want to be able to go back and like, look at the dates that are happening right now, because I know for me, there is this little small chapter this past year where it was kind of a foreshadowing for what's going to happen in 2025.
And so I want to like, It's getting me excited about looking at my own patterns and starting to see like, okay, what happened back then? Can I start tracking it now to see how the pattern plays out? So there's like this, there's just like so much excitement around it. So I would say for anyone that's going into it to just let yourself get excited and also just be open to whatever information is meant to come forward.
And you're probably just going to be surprised at how accurate it actually is and how accurate your own intuition is as well, because you already know. A lot of these answers within you. So it's just beautiful confirmation. Yeah. I think when I started to look at my own, it was like seeing dates of like, exactly when I felt like, okay, I [00:27:00] really need to take a new job.
Like this job is not it anymore. And this is not my life's purpose. And I cannot do this for the rest of my life. And like seeing that date reflected in my sodiacal releasing and being like, wow, that was like, that was That happened for a reason. And then seeing like the time that I signed, um, the contract with my new job and then seeing when, you know, things started to fall apart at my new job and then when it was ready and when it was time to take this next path, um, I could see every time that I had invested in Um, and so I love that you're starting to track those dates because so much of our life is merely patterns.
Um, but when we're in the day to day of it, it can be so hard to find those patterns for ourself. And sure, we can get on a call with a therapist or we can get on a call with a coach and they can do their best to either help us go back in time to look at our past, or they can help us to look forward in time if you're working with a coach.
But I think. A [00:28:00] lot of times they're not there to help you look at your own patterns. And so much of that awareness piece. comes from the patterns in our life and some of our patterns are good patterns and others are things that are generational patterns that maybe we are the ones that are here to break.
Um, I know another thing that has been really just like coming forward for me lately, and I'd be curious to know if you feel like you've had any shifts around this since our session, but, um, this idea that, um, You know, the manifestation rhetoric kind of started to surface around, like, 2011, which is, when, I think it was Neptune moved into Pisces, and so a lot of us have really bought into, uh, and not necessarily in a bad way, in this manifestation rhetoric of, like, what you think is what your thoughts become, which becomes your reality, like, there's this whole this whole idea behind it.
And I do think that for some people, like, that's what they need to get it to work. And I think for [00:29:00] others of us, the manifestation rhetoric can feel like it puts you in a box. And it's really hard because you're like, why does this work for other people? And it doesn't work for me. And I think where I found a lot of permission in zodiacal releasing was, I felt like I was grasping to things that Um, I felt like I should want or that, you know, the manifestation experts of the world or the, you know, the, uh, the friends in business that are like doing the things that are 17 steps ahead of me are like, this is what you have to do.
You got to manifest, manifest, manifest. Um, and it felt really, uh, I don't know if overwhelming is the right word, but it felt like it was like pushing me into a box that I just didn't want to be in and seeing my dates. It was so freeing to be like, My life is unfolding exactly as it's meant to. My story was written before I got here, my soul is here for a reason, and I am always being guided to whatever the next right thing is for me.
Even when it's a hard season, [00:30:00] even when a health crisis is popping up, even when my life feels like it's falling apart like it did in October, even when, like, all of these things are preparing you for something bigger, something different, um, to help you get back on your true life path, your true purpose.
And I think it was, I was felt like I was able to release some of this like constriction that I felt around the idea of manifestation. And instead I feel like I'm able to now, like, like you said, like I can journal freely and be like, wow, that pattern is really cool. Wow. I can see that. And, and whether people believe in astrology or not, it is rooted in a lot of ancient science.
Um, and I know, I, for me, just felt very overwhelming for a long time. Like I was like, I don't really understand what any of this is. And then you start to dive into the world and you're like, how cool is it that you can see these patterns in your life coming? Or how cool is it that you can see this period coming up a year before it gets here?
Um, and I feel like it's just felt really empowering to [00:31:00] me in a different way. And I've been able to release some of that, like societal narrative, even like I said, around, uh, Things that are supposed to help us, like manifestation, and really helped me to ground back into not needing clarity on everything, not needing an answer to everything, really just being present in the day to day and really noticing what is it that I'm doing day to day.
I was out, you know, I'm listening to a podcast and I see an angel number. Does that, oh, because I'm listening to a podcast on something that really makes me excited. And there's, you know, a sign saying that like, yes, you're on the right path. And just like having so much more, um, ability to tap into my present than I think I did prior to finding this.
So I'm curious how, if you feel like you've experienced any of those shifts or if that resonates with you at all. Absolutely. It feels. Like, you know, you know, so many people say things are not happening to me. They're happening for [00:32:00] me, but I feel like this has really like Really settled into my body now.
Like I understand it. Things are happening for me anytime. Something like challenging is coming up now. It's like, I'm on a team with myself. Like I used to be like fighting against myself so much when things were coming up, especially patterns. Cause then we just think. Why is the same, like, why am I doing the same dang thing, like, over again?
It's so frustrating. But then, when you take a step back, it's like, Okay, like, what is this here to teach me? Like, it's not just happening to me. I'm not a victim. Patterns, it's a complete power shift that happens. Like, I am in the power here to completely rewrite this story. And there's so much to learn from patterns.
And I've had so many patterns in my life that I've been working on. And I feel like I've really gotten a hold of, but it's encouraging when like you kind of see it coming back around and you get to know like, okay, this is part of my story. Like, how can I write a more empowering chapter [00:33:00] here? Like, I know it's happening, but like, how can I change my perception here?
And so it's just, it's helping me really see like, like you said, like, yeah. Everything on this earth for me, for my story, it's, it's been laid out for my highest purpose. So let me just be in the present moment. Let me just show up as the person that I want to be in this moment without the stress of like, what's going to happen next.
Yeah. I think especially with how much has just like shifted in, in, you know, our world, the political climate, the healthcare climate, like there's so much noise and so much frustration out there. And we are like you were saying earlier, like we're constantly interacting with people's energy around us. And All of those energies are carrying different stories with them.
It can feel really easy to lose sight of our own stories and our own gifts and our own ability to create change. And I feel like this has been really, um, really freeing in that [00:34:00] I can see the story in a different way now. But also I feel like it's given me a lot of permission to accept the hard and challenging times.
And to be like, you know what? This month really sucks. And it's gonna be a really hard month and that's okay. Like it doesn't have to be perfect right now. I think we also see a lot of times like, The, a lot of narrative and rhetoric around, like, pick yourself back up and get back in it. Like, it's time to move on.
Um, what are you going to do next? And I, and I feel like that's where a lot of our burnout comes from. Um, that's why I feel like so many of us push ourselves into chronic health conditions is it's because we pull ourselves out of the present moment because we're fearful about what's, because we don't know what's around the corner.
We can't live in that state all the time. And I think just like knowing that there are tools out there and like, I mean, these dates may be silly, but at the same time, it's like I, you know, this morning I was just telling Alex, like I tripped going up the [00:35:00] stairs and spilled coffee literally everywhere.
And I, you know, have a little bit of a headache. It's just, it's been like one of those days where I'm like, What is even happening? And then I go and look at my dates and I can see that today is a challenging day for me. So I'm like, okay, it's just going to be a challenging day, but it's also a meaningful day for me.
And meaningful days mean that you're on your right path. And here we are recording this episode of like, There's a reason for this happening today. And like we literally planned this yesterday. It's not like we put a lot of like thought and planning into like when is the best time to record this episode.
Um, and so I think like that's been really just like a cool part of this and now having had the opportunity to work with several of you and to really follow your Zodiacal releasing for, um, You know, some of you only a couple of weeks, but others that I've been watching, like some of my coaches have been graciously allowing me to track their dates for several months now.[00:36:00]
And it just never ceases to amaze me, like how spot on, how literal, how accurate it is and how validating it can be to someone when you feel incredibly. lonely in something that you're going through, or like no one understands, and then you can see that there's like a higher purpose for it. Um, so to kind of close out, I would just love to know, like, following the session, like, did you feel like what you got, um, in terms of like communication post session was helpful to you?
Did you feel like you are looking for additional support after the session? Do you feel like, um, You would recommend these sessions like tell me where you're at post session and even a little bit about like where you feel like you've made some shifts and changes since we did our session. Yeah, one thing that came up for me when you were just talking with when one of the first things you told me was just like, Did you know that you're in your Saturn return, and it just [00:37:00] like really helped me take a deep breath.
I was like, Oh my gosh, that makes so much sense because the last chapter of my life was so. challenging. It was so challenging and I just feel like if I had had some of this information through that period, like now I'm kind of on the end of it, but if I had had the information through that period, it would have Allowed me to just have a little bit of relief with everything that I was going through.
And so I think that no matter what period of time that you're in in your life, like it can really bring you support. And now I feel like it's bringing me support in the way that like I'm closing a chapter and kind of like starting something new. And so yeah, extra support, honestly, it's really just made me want more.
So now I'm just like really wanting to like dive more into like, okay, what are the patterns that are going to come up? This upcoming year, like what are ways that I can really support myself in 2025? Like, it's just having me this, [00:38:00] having this newfound excitement about the new year, rather than just like the typical.
Like writing out your goals for 2025, like, what are my resolutions? Like all of that. But instead it has this new kind of excitement that I feel. It feels like, okay, this is, it's a new year, but it's also in my astrology. Like it's showing me that there are big things happening this year and exciting things are happening this year.
And so I feel like I can go into this year, just feeling. Like, okay, what's going to happen? What miracles are about to happen? What are these next part of my stories that are about to happen? And our communication, like you've sent me some things, like give me some more, um, insights. And I just feel like you have this gift of really understanding your clients, like you'll send me something.
And I'm like, wow, that, that now I understand that one piece that I didn't understand in our session. And you just, yeah, you've helped me so much since the session. And I'm really [00:39:00] grateful that we've connected truly. Yeah, well, thank you for that. I'm so excited that those things have happened. I feel like I do after I've had a session with someone and I'm like, Oh, here's this random reel on social media that's really going to resonate with them.
Like, I have to share this or, you know, we're heading into this crazy retrograde period. And, you know, for me, like Mars is retrograding my eighth house, which is going to bring up Some crazy things, but for others, you know, that might be happening in your fourth house or that might be happening in your third at like it's, it's a different story for everyone.
And I think sometimes having those tools to understand them can help. But even when you were talking about goals for the new year, like all I could think about was like, you know, I used to set these goals for the new year, but like, Then I'd go through a challenging season or like that would be the year that was going to be really hard and all those goals would go out the window and I think sometimes it can then feel really easy to get down on yourself or to be like Well, I didn't accomplish any of my goals for the year because society tells us that, like, our [00:40:00] success as humans is based off of how many, you know, goals we achieved, or how many checkboxes we got on the list, and how many gold stars we received from the random people in our life, and it's not about what other people want for you, it's not about what other people say to you, it's not, like, it's This is your own personal journey, and the only person's approval you need along this journey is your own, um, and sometimes that's going to mean, you know, standing up for yourself or making controversial decisions and in different ways and, um, I think that this for me was like, okay, like now I know 2025 is actually probably going to be a harder year for me, but for you, it looks like it's going to be completely opposite.
Right. And so we all have those ebbs and flows in life. And I think to be able to have your own personal energetic forecast, like heading into a new year or starting the year off fresh could be such a different and cool experience for someone and then having the wisdom to tap into your soul's [00:41:00] records and your experiences and what you you've come to this life or what is it that you need to heal in this season of life can also like just help you to find the right mentors and people along the way.
And a lot of this, although we are talking specifically about my Akashic Records and Zodiacal releasing consult calls right now, um, I, you know, these are things that I'm also going to be using with one on one clients in full on coaching containers so that they do have that ongoing support. We are looking at doing what, um, would be like a recurring, maybe like astrologer in your pocket kind of experience where you would pay a monthly subscription fee, but you would have access to ask me questions as things come up, um, where we can go back and relate it back to your astrology.
I think, you know, while I'm not a trained human design reader, I do know an extensive amount about human design and have been studying that for a while. And so being able to bring in and help you see different things within your human design is also something I'm just really passionate about. And so, um, yeah.
There's a lot of ways that these things [00:42:00] are going to come together. And I know when you just like see them at face value, you're like, unless you've been in this space for a while, I feel like being like, what is Akashic Records? What is it I really think can be like, why on earth would I book that? But if you're listening to this podcast, I know many of you have been around for the better part of four years.
You've seen the evolution of this podcast. You've seen my own personal evolution. You've seen me come and leave many jobs. at this point. Um, but this is something I'm really passionate about and it's because of stories like Alex where, um, you can truly see how profound the shifts are. And this was after one two hour session.
Like, it's not like we spent extensive amounts of time on this. Like, this was one session and I can only imagine how big your shifts could be. with more sessions or ongoing support. Um, so thank you for sharing more about your story and about your experience with it. Thank you. I love that you said energetic forecast.
Like that is such a [00:43:00] good way to put it because It sounds a little daunting like to anyone who's thinking like, oh I don't want to find out if it's going to be like a hard year or a hard month, but it's kind of like if you're just checking the weather forecast and you find out it's going to be raining or there's going to be a storm passing through, that doesn't necessarily mean like everything's ruined, but now you're just prepared.
You can bring an umbrella or maybe you get to stay in today and maybe you get to like, make sure that you have your favorite hot drink ready to go because the storm's passing through or maybe, you know, it's going to be a really beautiful sunny day. Let me wear my best sundress. Like it's just giving you the tools so you can make the most out of like what's going to happen.
So I love that. And it's been so amazing connecting. I'm so excited to like keep this journey going. Yeah. Even as you were just saying that, like, I, you know, um, I remember looking at someone's early on and seeing like, January, February, March are going to be a hard month for them. And I was like, that's probably not the best time to launch something.
Right. Like I think even as a business owner, it's [00:44:00] like not everyone listening is a business owner, but if you are a business owner, if you are, I know a lot of my past guests from the podcast have listened into the episode regularly. If you are a business owner, like how empowering is that to say? Hey, you know what?
This is not the most aligned time for me to launch something. If I launch something during this time and I have this hard transit happening, it's probably not going to succeed the way that I want it to. And maybe it didn't, or maybe that, you know, this past launch that I had failed. And it was because I was actually in a really unaligned time to launch that and not because I had a bad product.
And maybe if I try to launch it again, I might have a different. You know, a different outcome. And so I think like, there are so many different ways that it can be used. And I think that that's the cool thing too, is that we are able to customize it and tailor it to like what you feel like you need most in this particular season of life, and then also have the opportunity to come back and explore.
Once life has shifted and changed in [00:45:00] different ways as well. Yes, absolutely. I love the astrology or astrologer in your pocket idea. That is amazing. I think just having someone to be able to like go to in those moments or infusing it with one on one coaching is honestly different than any type of coaching or mentorship that I've been a part of.
So I am very excited to see how that unfolds for you. Well, thank you. All right, friends. Well, uh, I guess we've talked much longer than I actually anticipated this episode being, but I'm so glad that we had this conversation, and if you are interested in working together in this capacity, I will, of course, have everything linked down below in the show notes.
I believe this episode is going to come out the first week in December. So, um, if you are listening to this live stream, Live. I will actually leave my, um, Black Friday pricing available to you until December 7th. After that, my prices are going to be increasing. This is a one time introductory offer rate, and it is probably about half the [00:46:00] price it will be because what I am learning is that there is so much that goes into these sessions and for good reason.
And I want to make sure that I can continue to deliver, uh, this level of, um, depth for all. Oncoming clients as well. So, um, I will leave that down below for you. As I said, the discounted link will be there until December 7th and then my prices will be increasing. So until next week, friends, I hope you all have a wonderful week and I will talk to you all real soon
