Latest / The Bridges and Beacons Podcast / Reconnecting to Joy Through Intuition and Human Design with Corissa Stepp
Transcript
- 0:38SPEAKER_00: Hello, hello, hello, and welcome.
- 0:42SPEAKER_00: I am very thrilled to be here today to talk to my friend Chris Step.
- 0:49SPEAKER_00: We met initially doing some multi-level marketing stuff.
- 0:54SPEAKER_00: And I think it's just so cool how we've all sort of transitioned, those of us who have gone from like the multi-level marketing to like this spiritual, mystical realm.
- 1:07SPEAKER_00: And every time I talk to Carissa in like the past year when we've connected, I just can't stop talking with her because she's she talks about one of my favorite things in the whole world, which is human design.
- 1:19SPEAKER_00: So, but what we're gonna focus on today is how we can reconnect to joy through our intuition and using human design.
- 1:28SPEAKER_00: So, Carissa, thank you so much for being here.
- 1:31SPEAKER_00: And I apologize to everybody because I I'm just gonna be completely taking notes and nerding out on everything she has to say.
- 1:41SPEAKER_02: Thank you so much for having me here, Kelly.
- 1:43SPEAKER_02: I'm super excited to be here and talk to your listeners.
- 1:46SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, I don't know if you want me to tell you a little bit about, you know, me and my background, just so people can get to know who I am.
- 1:53SPEAKER_02: Um, so my name is Kara Sistepp.
- 1:56SPEAKER_02: I started a career in finance many, many years ago, feels like centuries ago.
- 2:01SPEAKER_02: Um, became a stay-at-home mom and just kind of always felt like I had this bigger purpose and didn't know what it was.
- 2:08SPEAKER_02: Um, when I worked in finance, it was like, I feel like I'm here to help people, but like I feel like I'm not really helping people.
- 2:14SPEAKER_02: How do I help people?
- 2:15SPEAKER_02: I knew I didn't have enough patience to be a teacher, and I'm too much of a germophobe to be a doctor or a nurse.
- 2:20SPEAKER_02: So through life, right, which happens, I felt like I started having this like crisis of wow, I'm like approaching 40 and I I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing with my life outside of being a mother and a wife.
- 2:34SPEAKER_02: And it led me down these like rabbit holes, like all these different rabbit holes of exploring like how to take care of my body, right?
- 2:41SPEAKER_02: How to how to reconnect with like that self-care routine that I totally lost having children.
- 2:46SPEAKER_02: And then it evolved into this, you know, this this physical well-being evolved into like a mental well-being, into a spiritual well-being and an emotional well-being journey.
- 2:57SPEAKER_02: And interestingly enough, I had a session with an intuitive and she was doing a reading for me.
- 3:03SPEAKER_02: And at the end, she says to me, she goes, I don't know why I'm being called to share this with you, but your guides really want me to let you know that you need to look into this thing called human design.
- 3:15SPEAKER_02: And she was like, I know nothing about it.
- 3:17SPEAKER_02: I literally had just heard about it recently in a conversation, but you need to explore this.
- 3:22SPEAKER_02: This is important for you.
- 3:24SPEAKER_02: And I was like, Okay.
- 3:26SPEAKER_02: So I get off this, you know, call with this intuitive, and I immediately go to Google because what do we do?
- 3:31SPEAKER_02: We go to Google and we don't know anything.
- 3:32SPEAKER_02: And we're like, what is this human design thing?
- 3:35SPEAKER_02: And it led me really far into this rabbit hole of trying of using this beautiful system, I think, um, to really understand and reconnect back to who I was and what my purpose was.
- 3:48SPEAKER_02: Because the human design chart does that, right?
- 3:50SPEAKER_02: It provides this energetic blueprint that shows us this full potential of who we are and who we can be and what we're here to do.
- 3:59SPEAKER_02: And for me, it felt like such a grounding process in a time where I felt very lost and I was looking for clarity.
- 4:07SPEAKER_02: You know, I felt very disconnected even from who I was because who I became was more of this person that kind of fit into everyone else's expectations, and it didn't feel authentic to me.
- 4:19SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh, I love that so much.
- 4:21SPEAKER_00: And I can completely relate to that well-being arc that you described, sort of, you know, being a mom.
- 4:29SPEAKER_00: And like at some point you wake up and you're like, Oh, I haven't taken care of myself.
- 4:34SPEAKER_00: Oops, like, how did that one get left off of my to-do list?
- 4:40SPEAKER_00: Like, way, way off the to-do list, and so attached to our roles and and raising wonderful kids.
- 4:48SPEAKER_00: Um, I think I realized very similarly that it wasn't about like, could I be a good mom and a good wife, you know, or could I take care of myself, but I could both and if I could take that arc that you shared, which was a beautiful way of describing that well-being, that we kind of start at the physical level, like like I do a lot of coaching with people with sleep and rest and like getting your life organized, and you sort of continue and then you hit that spiritual piece.
- 5:24SPEAKER_00: And I I feel the way that you do in that suddenly getting through all that, there was this scary drop-off of like, well, I just like I just detached from so many of the things that I thought I was and what I wanted to be.
- 5:41SPEAKER_00: And here I am feeling very raw and vulnerable, but also very excited.
- 5:47SPEAKER_00: So that's amazing.
- 5:48SPEAKER_00: And the fact that your your guides were like tap, tap, tap, hello.
- 5:52SPEAKER_00: We're just gonna, we're gonna chime in for a minute here and and just help you give you a little shortcut.
- 5:59SPEAKER_00: Here's where you need to go down that rabbit hole.
- 6:02SPEAKER_02: Yes, absolutely.
- 6:03SPEAKER_02: I um I'm very grateful that the message came through so clearly because I mean, I don't know if I would have found human design, to be quite honest, other if I hadn't been really like literally, like you said, like pointed directly in the direction that I had to go down.
- 6:18SPEAKER_00: So um, wow.
- 6:20SPEAKER_00: So it was meant for you.
- 6:22SPEAKER_00: So, so you you get on Google and you're like, okay, what is human design?
- 6:28SPEAKER_00: And for those of you who are listening who who may not have had an introduction to human design, um, you haven't heard me, you know, going fangirl over the whole human design thing because I'm obsessed.
- 6:39SPEAKER_00: I'm a one-three manifesting generator, which, you know, just basically means that I have a lot of high energy and this ability to go down the rabbit hole like insanely and learn fast and then boil it down and help people understand.
- 6:56SPEAKER_00: So I totally appreciate because when I first learned about it, I think I was on a group with the a a friend of ours, uh, Kelly Stewart, who's just this fantastic woman in the energy and element world.
- 7:10SPEAKER_00: But somebody was doing like readings on a live and everybody was blowing up.
- 7:15SPEAKER_00: And so that's how I got my introduction.
- 7:18SPEAKER_00: So when you first did it, what did you find out first about human design?
- 7:23SPEAKER_02: I think the first thing that I well, I honestly um just started looking for resources, right?
- 7:28SPEAKER_02: Like, how do I get more information?
- 7:30SPEAKER_02: So I think the first place most people end up is at the Jovian Archive website because as you know, as we know, like it Ra, that was his, you know, Jovian Archive is his company or whatever.
- 7:41SPEAKER_02: And he was the one who got this download of the human design system.
- 7:45SPEAKER_02: So I started there, and at first I had a little bit of resistance because when Ra created human design, he really was coming at it from the not self, right?
- 7:55SPEAKER_02: From the lower self.
- 7:57SPEAKER_02: And so a lot of the language felt very kind of abrasive to me.
- 8:02SPEAKER_02: And I was like, oh, like this is like a little bit uncomfortable.
- 8:04SPEAKER_02: Like he's going hard, like he's pointing this bright flashlight or like spotlight on all of the shadows.
- 8:12SPEAKER_02: And I'm like, there has to be more.
- 8:13SPEAKER_02: Like, I understand, like, we all have shadow work to do, right?
- 8:16SPEAKER_02: We all have things we need to heal.
- 8:17SPEAKER_02: And it wasn't until I found actually a podcast, which we were talking about just before, where I started listening and I loved the reframe of the human design system, is really all about experimenting with all of the energies and archetypes that exist within the chart and seeing what resonates for you and where you kind of fall in between that high expression and that low expression.
- 8:40SPEAKER_02: And sometimes we kind of vacillate back and forth between both sides, right?
- 8:45SPEAKER_02: Like it's an evolution, it's a growth, it's a journey.
- 8:48SPEAKER_02: And um, you know, we don't always get to the end enlightened state.
- 8:53SPEAKER_02: That's kind of you know the end goal, hopefully.
- 8:56SPEAKER_02: But um, we definitely are here having a human experience.
- 8:58SPEAKER_02: And so that will alter and change over time through our conditioning, through our experiences and the things that are brought to us, the struggles that we experience and all that.
- 9:06SPEAKER_00: So yeah, I I I love that so much.
- 9:09SPEAKER_00: And I agree with you.
- 9:10SPEAKER_00: Like at first it was sort of sort of like when you start to investigate your your sign.
- 9:16SPEAKER_00: So I'm a Sagittarius, so and you start to see these pieces of of what you might be like if you're under that sign.
- 9:26SPEAKER_00: And now, you know, the depth that you can go into with human design.
- 9:32SPEAKER_00: And like initially I was like, oh, well, this explains a lot.
- 9:35SPEAKER_00: And it was very nice, easy ways to explain why I am the way I am, and sort of sort of like you could own your excuses.
- 9:42SPEAKER_00: But like you said, like going into that not-self piece, like, well, I my not-self is frustration.
- 9:48SPEAKER_00: So if it frustrates me, I'm not doing it.
- 9:52SPEAKER_00: I have to be satisfied to do, you know.
- 9:58SPEAKER_00: But yeah, I agree with you, you know.
- 10:00SPEAKER_00: Um, listening to Emma Dunwoody, who has a podcast, the the Human Design Podcast.
- 10:05SPEAKER_00: And if any of you are like really obsessed with human design, like that is the best place to go.
- 10:10SPEAKER_00: She she does some fabulous episodes on um your design, on each of the different elements.
- 10:19SPEAKER_00: And I I agree with you, the idea of using it as an experiment versus like taking it at face value.
- 10:27SPEAKER_00: Um, and I think I've even heard her say that when Ra was designing it, like it he gave the the five different types or the four with the generators and manifesting generators.
- 10:39SPEAKER_00: Um, he gave those to kind of help just frame it a little bit better for people.
- 10:45SPEAKER_00: But that if you sort of removed that from the equation, there's so much depth in there and ways to grow.
- 10:52SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 10:53SPEAKER_02: The other thing is, um, so my mentor who I'm, you know, studying with or whatever, Karen Curry Parker, she basically rewrote all of the language of traditional human design to include quantum language.
- 11:04SPEAKER_02: And it's so powerful because words are frequency, right?
- 11:09SPEAKER_02: And so they impact you in a different way.
- 11:11SPEAKER_02: So you can look at it from more like a high vibe kind of experience.
- 11:14SPEAKER_02: And one of the things that she loves to teach, and it's so true, is we have all of the chart, right?
- 11:20SPEAKER_02: Like when you look at your human design, you're not just your definition, you're also everywhere that you're open.
- 11:27SPEAKER_02: And that openness brings you wisdom because you experience those energies on a variable level and you're able to become wise about what makes sense for you or like where you're going to resonate within that, or identifying it in other people and seeing kind of where they sit in that, you know, that span.
- 11:44SPEAKER_02: And so um, I just love that because I think that like we have a lot to like when we're learning to decondition ourselves, right?
- 11:50SPEAKER_02: Which is part of like the experience of experimenting with your human design, is kind of that deconditioning process, is that we don't just hold conditioning in our definition, we hold it in our, you know, openness as well.
- 12:03SPEAKER_02: And so, you know, there's really if you're on a personal healing journey, like this is such a great tool to kind of help you identify where you need to focus to kind of get back truly to who you are and to get back onto this path of alignment, um, which I think just leads to a life full of ease and flow.
- 12:20SPEAKER_02: And I think, like you said, like it kind of gets you onto that spiritual, you know, that spiritual well-being path where you start to really just like let go, right?
- 12:28SPEAKER_02: Because I think that especially like, I don't know if it's like a mom thing or a woman thing, like we tend to like to control things a little bit, right?
- 12:36SPEAKER_02: Like we tend to like to hold on to things, right?
- 12:38SPEAKER_02: And grasp harder and when they feel like they're slipping away.
- 12:42SPEAKER_02: And learning to let go and having that, you know, experiencing the grace that comes with that is freeing, right?
- 12:50SPEAKER_02: And what and like what is abundance?
- 12:52SPEAKER_02: Like you want to experience abundance, like abundance is freedom.
- 12:58SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh.
- 12:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I agree with you completely.
- 13:01SPEAKER_00: I think it's it's so much more than like that financial piece of it.
- 13:06SPEAKER_00: That is a piece of it and and freedom that can come from that, but it's also freeing yourself from the conditioning shackles in your brain, you know, and the the mind patterns that aren't working for you.
- 13:21SPEAKER_00: And the conditioning, I mean, I I think what you were saying there about, you know, is it is it women, is it mom?
- 13:28SPEAKER_00: I think it's a little bit of both.
- 13:29SPEAKER_00: I think that conditioning is it's ancestral, right?
- 13:34SPEAKER_00: It's it's societal, and there's this fabric that we're working against by, you know, like I said before, that both and like you can both be a great mom and an entrepreneur, and you know, whatever else you want to add on to that, because you're not limited by the capacity and the limitations of time.
- 13:55SPEAKER_00: And I know for some people that's a little bit big to digest at once.
- 14:01SPEAKER_00: You know, you have to kind of hear it about a hundred thousand times before you're like, oh, that might actually be true.
- 14:07SPEAKER_00: I might actually be able to see evidence that that is actually effective, that actually works, that that I'm not limited by what I have the personal capacity for.
- 14:18SPEAKER_00: And I think that was the biggest shift for me.
- 14:21SPEAKER_00: Thinking that I, that control, I have to do everything.
- 14:25SPEAKER_00: I have to have control over everything, I have to have the energy for everything and everyone.
- 14:31SPEAKER_00: And when I let that go and believed that, like I'm only serving from overflow.
- 14:37SPEAKER_00: I'm not serving others from my soul's energy.
- 14:42SPEAKER_00: That's mine.
- 14:43SPEAKER_00: I have work to do with that for me.
- 14:45SPEAKER_00: That's that was a shift.
- 14:47SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 14:48SPEAKER_02: And I think the other thing is realizing that we don't have to figure it all out because I think we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to always know the answer or to figure out the answer, right?
- 14:58SPEAKER_02: Like, or we're supposed to, you know, spend all this time and energy just knowing what to do next.
- 15:06SPEAKER_02: And if we kind of ease back into that flow, first of all, it frees up that time because we're spending so much time like focusing on that and putting our energy into it.
- 15:15SPEAKER_02: And if we just take a step back and say, okay, I don't have to figure it out.
- 15:19SPEAKER_02: I can ask the question and things are going to come into my outer reality that are going to lead me, it's having that faith, right?
- 15:28SPEAKER_02: And trusting that those breadcrumbs and those synchronicities and those cues and those clues and the information or the people or the relationships or the opportunities are going to come into our awareness and come into our outer world.
- 15:41SPEAKER_02: And yes, like this is definitely very high-level stuff that some of your listeners may be like, wait, this sounds like way too much.
- 15:47SPEAKER_02: I can't take this all in.
- 15:49SPEAKER_02: But when you start experimenting with all this and you see how this works, it's amazing.
- 15:54SPEAKER_02: I mean, it's truly like it's almost like a manifesting tool in a way, right?
- 15:58SPEAKER_02: If you can there's a lot of different pieces to it, but and I can talk to you about that, but you know, starting with a practice of gratitude, right?
- 16:06SPEAKER_02: The things that you focus your attention on are the things you're gonna receive more of.
- 16:10SPEAKER_02: So if we get stuck in that conditioned thinking or that stinking thinking, right?
- 16:15SPEAKER_02: Of constantly being like, why does this happen to me?
- 16:18SPEAKER_02: How is this happening to me?
- 16:19SPEAKER_02: How do I get out of this?
- 16:19SPEAKER_02: Like it always seems to happen, and I don't know how to prevent it from happening.
- 16:23SPEAKER_02: It's not your job to prevent it from happening.
- 16:25SPEAKER_02: You're meant you're brought those experiences for a reason.
- 16:27SPEAKER_02: You need to learn a lesson, right?
- 16:29SPEAKER_02: Or that person has come into your life to shift something for you, or you're meant to shift after the experience that you've had.
- 16:36SPEAKER_02: And so, you know, having that like practice of gratitude, being grateful for even the struggles, right?
- 16:45SPEAKER_02: And finding the gifts and the blessings from the pain of those struggles, yes, is something that it it enriches our life whether or not we realize it.
- 16:56SPEAKER_02: I mean, and I think that like you can't really experience the good of that until you kind of allow yourself to go through it to feel it, process it and learn the lessons.
- 17:08SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh.
- 17:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 17:11SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I I I think that's that's so powerful.
- 17:15SPEAKER_00: And I I think we can we can look at things like gratitude and affirmations as like it's so simple, how could it be so helpful?
- 17:23SPEAKER_00: But you know, my big thing is you f like if you can't just attach to the the mystical kind of piece of that, then follow the science, the science of how our brains are wired to be able to re you know realign what is populating into your brain.
- 19:06SPEAKER_00: So if you have those tapes that are playing in your head, you can use your reticular activating system, which is in in your brainstem back here.
- 19:16SPEAKER_00: Gratitude is repatterning your brain.
- 19:20SPEAKER_00: And so I think people kind of think like, ah, I'm not gonna do that.
- 19:24SPEAKER_00: That seems very, you know, it doesn't, I mean, it sounds like a beautiful practice, but it doesn't sound like it's gonna make a big difference for me.
- 19:31SPEAKER_00: But it it truly, truly does.
- 19:33SPEAKER_02: It truly does.
- 19:34SPEAKER_02: It also, you know, raises your vibration and your frequency.
- 19:37SPEAKER_02: And when you're able to do that, you know, you are connecting, you are able then to connect into the higher realms and ask the questions of like, okay, like I want something different now.
- 19:46SPEAKER_02: You know, like I've had all these experiences.
- 19:48SPEAKER_02: It's been really hard, it's been really heavy, I've learned a lot.
- 19:50SPEAKER_02: Now I'm ready for something different, right?
- 19:52SPEAKER_02: And so asking for something different or asking for something better is another way in which we can kind of manifest those things into our world that, you know, maybe feel juicier, right?
- 20:03SPEAKER_02: That um changes our experience that shifts the things that come into our into our lives.
- 20:10SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh, that's so great.
- 20:12SPEAKER_00: And so if somebody is listening right now and they're like, well, I started a gratitude practice, but it's just like I feel like I'm stalled out.
- 20:19SPEAKER_00: This is what you want to do.
- 20:21SPEAKER_00: I am so happy and grateful now that, and then you stick in there that thing that you're that like you said, that juicy thing that you're that you're looking to bring to you, to magnetize to you, and you write it.
- 20:37SPEAKER_00: And that's the thing too.
- 20:38SPEAKER_00: I think the the act of writing has so much more impact.
- 20:42SPEAKER_00: And I can tell you that is it my background as an occupational therapist, that when when you write, you're making pathways in your brain versus when you type or when you speak, it's a different part of the brain that lights up, but it is incredibly powerful to write things like that.
- 21:00SPEAKER_00: I am so happy and grateful now that I have$100,000 or more in my bank account, right?
- 21:09SPEAKER_00: So uh that I think I agree with you.
- 21:12SPEAKER_00: I think that is such an impactful practice.
- 21:16SPEAKER_02: I think the other thing that's really important that people that we work on to allow us to receive, right?
- 21:23SPEAKER_02: Because I think that's the other half of it, right?
- 21:24SPEAKER_02: If you're not open to receiving, you're not going to get the things that you are maybe asking for, right?
- 21:32SPEAKER_02: Like you have to be open in a way.
- 21:34SPEAKER_02: And the way we are able to do that, honestly, is through self-love, right?
- 21:39SPEAKER_02: You have to love yourself and know that you're worthy of receiving.
- 21:44SPEAKER_02: It's so important to be able to stand in your value and say, I know I'm worthy because I am me, right?
- 21:52SPEAKER_02: So knowing who you are, loving yourself for all of who you are the good, the bad, the ugly, right?
- 21:58SPEAKER_02: Like we're not perfect, we're not meant to be perfect, we're having a human experience.
- 22:02SPEAKER_02: But knowing that because you are a being, like you are a divine being in a human body, that you deserve to receive as much as you're giving, right?
- 22:12SPEAKER_02: And like you said before, like you're giving from that overflow.
- 22:15SPEAKER_02: And that that all comes from this divine, you know, I hate to get so spiritual, but it's true.
- 22:21SPEAKER_02: Like we all have the capacity to love, right?
- 22:25SPEAKER_02: We love other people, but we need to also love ourselves just as much and unconditionally and not be critical and not be judgmental and you know, not come down on ourselves because I think it's so easy in our society, right, to become critical of ourselves because we're taught like if you don't have this, then you're not that.
- 22:44SPEAKER_02: If you don't look like this, then you're not worthy, you know?
- 22:48SPEAKER_02: And it's I think for women, and I and I feel like we're gonna get a little off track, but like I just feel like for women especially, like the marketing has been very fear-based, right?
- 22:58SPEAKER_02: And it gets us away from this place of love.
- 23:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 23:04unknown: Yeah.
- 23:04SPEAKER_02: I mean, I'd love to just like share this like quick story, but I was in this doing this deep meditation.
- 23:10SPEAKER_02: Um, as a matter of fact, with my intuitive teacher who I took a class with last summer, we were going through the seven planes of existence.
- 23:18SPEAKER_02: And when we got to the plane that is basically like your physical 3D reality, the message that came through to me that made me cry was my body being like, I just want you to love me.
- 23:30SPEAKER_02: And it broke me because we are taught, we are taught not to love our bodies, right?
- 23:37SPEAKER_02: There's always something wrong.
- 23:38SPEAKER_02: There's always, you know, I want a flatter stomach, I want to be taller, I want to, whatever it is.
- 23:42SPEAKER_02: And it was like, oh my God, like here I am.
- 23:45SPEAKER_02: I had gone on that physical well being journey, right?
- 23:47SPEAKER_02: Like I'm eating super healthy, I'm taking good care of myself, I'm working out, I'm exercising.
- 23:53SPEAKER_01: You know, I do all the things to take care of my physical health at the
- 24:01SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 24:02SPEAKER_00: And I I think that's something that so many people can relate to.
- 24:07SPEAKER_00: Um, and you know, we can get so image-based and focused on image, and nourishment is not just what we eat, it's what we take in visually, auditorily, you know, the energies that we surround ourselves with, you know, uh, and I think early on in my, you know, well-being journey, I recognized that there were certain frequencies that were not good for me.
- 24:38SPEAKER_00: News, I don't, I don't really watch the news because I don't find that it's it's helpful for me.
- 24:45SPEAKER_00: And it's not this like like blinders, things are not happening.
- 24:49SPEAKER_00: It's that that is not where my energy needs to go in in order to help the positive path of the planet.
- 24:58SPEAKER_00: That's not for me.
- 25:00SPEAKER_00: And like shifting to listening to podcasts, listening to books on tape, meditating.
- 25:05SPEAKER_00: Like, what am I feeding myself?
- 25:08SPEAKER_00: How am I nourishing myself, mind, body, soul?
- 25:11SPEAKER_00: And I think, yeah, I think what you're talking about is that that shift, that beautiful arc that you talked about before, that shift of it's not just about the physical piece of nourishment, but your body actually saying to you, why can't you just be loving to me?
- 25:27SPEAKER_00: That I mean, that's that's super powerful.
- 25:30unknown: Yeah.
- 25:32SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 25:33SPEAKER_02: And you know, I I agree with you in terms of the news and like that that soul nourishment, right?
- 25:39SPEAKER_02: But that you're talking about, like absolutely 100%, it makes a difference.
- 25:43SPEAKER_02: And I think when you can integrate all those pieces of yourself, right?
- 25:50SPEAKER_02: That seems like we were talking about the mind, the body, and the spirit, you can love yourself fully when you're able to integrate all of that together, right?
- 25:59SPEAKER_02: And really understand the connections because you know, sometimes it's like our experiences that we've had as children, we we kind of disconnect.
- 26:10SPEAKER_02: Like if you are, and we'll get back like to human design, for example, like if you have a totally open solar plexus, as a child, like everyone else's emotions around you felt really hard when they were big emotions that we couldn't handle as children.
- 26:27SPEAKER_02: And nobody teaches you how to manage other people's emotions.
- 26:32SPEAKER_02: Sometimes, like, you just disconnect from it because it's too much and it's overwhelming.
- 26:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 26:37SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 26:38SPEAKER_00: I I agree with you.
- 26:40SPEAKER_00: I think I that at least was my experience being very empathic and and very tuned into other people's emotions.
- 26:48SPEAKER_00: I was just born that way.
- 26:50SPEAKER_00: And it created a lot of anxiety, you know.
- 26:54SPEAKER_00: Um, but but not to like fast forward to the the end game, but what I kind of recognize in the past couple years is that that doesn't have to be the story that, you know, feeling sorry for myself that I was a child with high anxiety, the empathy and the skills that I gained from that, you know, like you said, this life experiment, you know, being a a a human being having an experience, you know, um, and coming back now in my 40s to being able to go back in my timeline to times where maybe I had that experience and I didn't feel safe or I felt scared or anxious.
- 27:36SPEAKER_00: And to, you know, what I was thinking when you were saying your body was like, why can't you just love me?
- 27:42SPEAKER_00: Like, where in your timeline is that coming from?
- 27:45SPEAKER_00: Is it is it seven-year-old you?
- 27:47SPEAKER_00: Is it 10?
- 27:47SPEAKER_00: Is it 13?
- 27:48SPEAKER_00: Is it 18?
- 27:49SPEAKER_00: Um, and taking that process of going back through my timeline and loving on my child.
- 27:57SPEAKER_00: Because, you know, and and again, we're sort of getting a little like vague and heady for people, but like there is no, there is no specific timeline.
- 28:07SPEAKER_00: We're here, there, and everywhere all at once.
- 28:10SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 28:11SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 28:12SPEAKER_02: No, for sure.
- 28:13SPEAKER_02: And, you know, I think like going and doing that healing work, right?
- 28:18SPEAKER_02: Of going back and healing those stories and reframing them and you know, not to get into like neural plasticity and all that kind of stuff of like relaxing.
- 28:26SPEAKER_02: You know, I'm willing to go there.
- 28:28SPEAKER_02: Well, so like, you know, like you talked about the gratitude practice being able to do that.
- 28:31SPEAKER_02: But you know, I in my with my clients, aside from doing like gratitude and everything, I feel like you have to use a lot of different tools, really, you know, really to kind of get to everything because there are so many different modalities and you'll find what works for you.
- 28:43SPEAKER_02: But for me, like I also use EFT, which is tapping, right?
- 28:47SPEAKER_02: I'm an EFT practitioner.
- 28:49SPEAKER_02: And for me, like I've experienced personally, and I've seen people experience personally these deep healing shifts of recognizing where these limiting beliefs come from and healing these like micro-traumas, right?
- 29:04SPEAKER_02: Because like we talk about trauma and we often think it's like a big thing.
- 29:07SPEAKER_02: We thought we talk about it like, oh, it's like a sexual assault or it could be domestic abuse, whatever it is.
- 29:13SPEAKER_02: But there's micro-traumas that happen to us throughout our lives that create the narrative that we tell ourselves, like that you said, like those tapes that kind of play in the back of our minds.
- 29:25SPEAKER_02: And how do we go back and rewrite all of that to be able to become the full expression of who we are?
- 29:30SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 29:31SPEAKER_02: And to and to really change the trajectory of the path that we're on and to reconnect back to that joy, you have to kind of go back and heal those wounds, right?
- 29:40SPEAKER_02: Those those scars that maybe are still there, but are causing you to trigger in a certain way, to respond in a certain way, to think a certain way, and get caught in that loop, that that loop that you're telling yourself, like I'm not good enough, right?
- 29:52SPEAKER_02: And this is why I'm talking about like self-worth, like knowing that you're good enough, knowing that who you are is more than enough, knowing even that your purpose is just being who you are and aligning to that and standing strongly in that.
- 30:07SPEAKER_02: Your whole purpose is to be who you are, but who are you?
- 30:12SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 30:12SPEAKER_02: And do you love yourself enough to be that in every situation and come from a heart-based place and not from fear?
- 30:20SPEAKER_00: Oh my god.
- 30:21SPEAKER_00: I mean, that like we could just we could just wrap that up in a bow and give that to everybody.
- 30:25SPEAKER_00: I think that's so huge that like who you are.
- 30:29SPEAKER_00: And I think where I got stuck was how do I know who I am versus the conditioning that I've that I've been taking in since day one.
- 30:44SPEAKER_00: So I think that like that can anchor us a little bit in intuition, maybe.
- 30:49SPEAKER_00: Um yeah.
- 30:50SPEAKER_00: Well, and just human design.
- 30:51SPEAKER_02: I mean, that's like the greatest thing.
- 30:53SPEAKER_02: It it literally gives you this permission slip to be who you are and to really hone in and understand the different elements of the energies that make up who you are.
- 31:03SPEAKER_02: Um so yeah, I mean, I'd love to we can start talking about, you know, where your intuitive gifts sort of lie in the chart.
- 31:09SPEAKER_02: Listen, at the end of the day, like I said, we all have all of the chart.
- 31:13SPEAKER_02: We are all intuitive.
- 31:15SPEAKER_02: We all have the ability to connect spiritually.
- 31:21SPEAKER_02: We all have the ability to talk to our spirit guides, to our angels, um, to our past loved ones.
- 31:27SPEAKER_02: It's just like any other talent that you have or gift that you have, the more you practice it and the more you hone it, the more reliable it becomes.
- 31:38SPEAKER_02: And there's a big component of self-trust that comes along with that because knowing that you can trust the inner guidance that you're receiving is huge.
- 31:50SPEAKER_02: And know that you're not like making it up because I think that a lot of us when we come into our intuitive gifts and we start realizing that we have these abilities, we start to doubt ourselves, right?
- 31:58SPEAKER_02: We like, wait a second, like I could just be making maybe I'm just telling myself the things I want to hear and not what is really being shared with me.
- 32:08SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 32:09SPEAKER_00: I yeah.
- 32:10SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh.
- 32:11SPEAKER_00: I just have to jump on that because I feel that that that was me.
- 32:16SPEAKER_00: Like having those, you know, gut hits and and like not listening to them.
- 32:24SPEAKER_00: I mean, even just on um when was it?
- 32:28SPEAKER_00: And Sunday, like about a week ago, I I got like an intuitive hit.
- 32:34SPEAKER_00: I had a$20 bill in my pocket, and I had a little intuitive hit that was like, you should not keep that in your pocket.
- 32:39SPEAKER_00: And I was like, no, no, it's fine, it's fine.
- 32:42SPEAKER_00: And went on with my day.
- 32:44SPEAKER_00: Guess what?
- 32:45SPEAKER_00: Lost the$20 bill.
- 32:47SPEAKER_00: And I was like, and there were a couple things that happened that day, and I was like, Yep, there's there's my little experiment when I don't listen.
- 32:55SPEAKER_02: So I would love kind of offering like a little bit like a coaching tool that I would do with my clients to kind of help them build that self-trust.
- 33:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 33:03SPEAKER_02: Literally writing things like that down.
- 33:04SPEAKER_02: So you have the evidence in writing.
- 33:06SPEAKER_02: Again, going back to that, like how powerful writing can be, and then being able to go back and read it and be like, okay, like the last time I got this little quiet little knowing that just kind of appeared and showed up and I didn't listen.
- 33:18SPEAKER_02: Look what happened.
- 33:19SPEAKER_02: So next time I know I can trust it.
- 33:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 33:24SPEAKER_02: It's building that trust, it's building the evidence to prove to your mind because that's the biggest thing, right?
- 33:29SPEAKER_02: Like we from a very young age are taught the power of our minds, right?
- 33:36SPEAKER_02: And our minds are powerful, but but they sometimes get in our way.
- 33:40SPEAKER_02: The doubt that that comes with it gets in our way, the fear that our minds create sometimes that's not real, holds us back.
- 33:50SPEAKER_02: So, you know, if we want to talk about like intuition, we can talk about like first like the different types of intuition, right?
- 33:56SPEAKER_02: So, like, how do we experience intuition?
- 33:58SPEAKER_02: Um, we experience it through maybe clairvoyance, which is clear seeing.
- 34:03SPEAKER_02: Sometimes it's just vivid dreams.
- 34:05SPEAKER_02: Sometimes it's like you can see mental images in your mind.
- 34:08SPEAKER_02: Um, it might be through seeing chakras or auras.
- 34:12SPEAKER_02: People have that ability.
- 34:13SPEAKER_02: And we have clear audience, right?
- 34:16SPEAKER_02: So we might hear voices in our head and know you're not crazy.
- 34:20SPEAKER_02: Um, we might hear actual external noises.
- 34:23SPEAKER_02: I don't know, Kelly, if you've ever been in a situation where you've been doing something and you feel like someone called your name and you turned around and you're like, who just called me?
- 34:30SPEAKER_02: And it was nobody.
- 34:31SPEAKER_02: But something getting your attention in that direction.
- 34:34SPEAKER_00: That's one of my clairs.
- 34:36SPEAKER_00: Is it?
- 34:36SPEAKER_00: I definitely have I have chatter in my head.
- 34:39SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 34:39SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's interesting.
- 34:41SPEAKER_00: And, you know, and and of course, people always laugh and they're like, I'm not, there's nothing wrong with me.
- 34:47SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 34:48SPEAKER_00: But it's it's different than like I find when it's an intuition, it's very quiet, it's very unemotional, and it's quick and gone.
- 35:01SPEAKER_00: And if I'm not real tuned in, I can miss it.
- 35:04SPEAKER_00: Or or it's like I don't recognize it until like 10 minutes later that it happened.
- 35:10SPEAKER_02: And maybe we could talk about, you know, what's the difference between getting that intuitive hit and it being something that's fear or that looks like anxiety, right?
- 35:18SPEAKER_02: So if you have a little voice that's telling you, like, you know, be careful, like someone's gonna get hurt.
- 35:25SPEAKER_02: I mean, like, maybe there's like some element of that, but like if it's coming very emotionally, it's your head.
- 35:30SPEAKER_02: Like it's your head, it's not coming from your actual intuition.
- 35:34SPEAKER_02: And so I think that people need to be mindful of that.
- 35:37SPEAKER_02: Like if it's coming and it sounds like fear, it's not your intuition.
- 35:42SPEAKER_02: There is instinct, right?
- 35:43SPEAKER_02: There's a difference between instinct and intuition.
- 35:46SPEAKER_02: So you get goosebumps, you know, you get in your car, you're driving, you're on the highway, you're about to change lanes and you get goosebumps, or you get like a tap, you feel like a hand on your shoulder, or something like draws your attention, and you're just about to change lanes and a car comes speeding by, like, okay, good.
- 36:05SPEAKER_02: If you have little voice in your head who's maybe like alerting you, even right, like you're like, ooh, be careful.
- 36:11SPEAKER_02: And they're calm.
- 36:12SPEAKER_02: Okay, like that's your intuition.
- 36:14SPEAKER_02: But if you're driving and all of a sudden you're like, oh my god, I'm gonna get a car accident, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah like your head's just like going nuts.
- 36:19SPEAKER_02: Like your brain's going, it's all in your head, and you don't need to like you can kind of dismiss it, right?
- 36:24SPEAKER_02: Like you can feel the fear and do it anyway.
- 36:26SPEAKER_02: Like, just keep moving on.
- 36:28SPEAKER_02: Um, so that brings me to another one, clairsentience, right?
- 36:31SPEAKER_02: That feeling, that tingling that you might get.
- 36:34SPEAKER_02: Um, it might be the goosebumps, it could be some sort of sensation.
- 36:37SPEAKER_02: I know that when I'm connecting with people's loved ones who have passed, one of the identifying pieces of information I always ask for is how somebody passed.
- 36:46SPEAKER_02: And I will get the sensation of what they experienced before they passed.
- 36:50SPEAKER_02: So it might be like I've felt like a choking feeling.
- 36:53SPEAKER_02: You know, I've gotten like a pain in my chest.
- 36:56SPEAKER_02: I've gotten like, you know, feeling really nauseous, like knowing me like there was like some sort of like stomach cancer or like digestion issues, digestive issues.
- 37:04SPEAKER_02: Um, and so it it's it's a it's very different.
- 37:08SPEAKER_02: It's really interesting, like whenever I do readings for people for past loved ones, because like to actually feel something that someone else felt is why it's wild.
- 37:20SPEAKER_02: Um there's clear empathy, right?
- 37:23SPEAKER_02: We we could basically touch on this before.
- 37:25SPEAKER_02: It's like feeling other people's emotions.
- 37:27SPEAKER_02: So something that that may be like but like something sometimes that we think is a curse, right?
- 37:34SPEAKER_02: Like you had this anxiety because you felt everyone's emotions, then you feel like, oh, why do I have to feel everyone's emotions?
- 37:38SPEAKER_02: Like it makes me feel really heavy and is actually your greatest superpower, right?
- 37:44SPEAKER_00: It's actually and I I became an occupational therapist, and my specialty is sensory integration.
- 37:51SPEAKER_00: And you know, it took me a long time to realize that I was using my gifts in my therapy with my kids.
- 37:59SPEAKER_00: Like I'm able to read where they are, and I'm not gonna offer them something that's gonna set them off, and I can help them sort of soothe.
- 38:10SPEAKER_00: But also very helpful, like working in schools, going into a teacher's classroom, I can read the energy of the classroom, the energy of the teacher, like know very fast what they're able to do.
- 38:20SPEAKER_00: And I always thought it was my like my visual observation, but I think it was also energetics.
- 38:25SPEAKER_00: I can read the energetics and the emotions and like have that intuitive hit that, like, okay, this is not the teacher, this is not the day, like to push for something.
- 38:36SPEAKER_00: Like I can feel that there's something that's gonna overwhelm them.
- 38:40SPEAKER_00: And for kids, you know, knowing what they need.
- 38:43SPEAKER_00: And, you know, I work with kids who are nonverbal, and I don't need to to hear from them their their words to know what they're feeling and what they might need.
- 38:54SPEAKER_00: I have like a very strong intuitive connection to them.
- 38:58SPEAKER_02: It's like so amazing.
- 39:01SPEAKER_02: It's beautiful.
- 39:02SPEAKER_00: It it is, I mean, and and you know, like you said, like you might have something that feels right now that is a curse because it can be overwhelming, especially if you don't have the tools to either be boundried or not take on so much.
- 39:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 39:22SPEAKER_00: Definitely, definitely.
- 39:25SPEAKER_02: Um, the next one is clear cognizance, right?
- 39:28SPEAKER_02: Like that clear knowing, you know, just knowing but not knowing how you know.
- 39:32SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, you can usually like for me, like I can tell sometimes when someone's pregnant, and like they won't tell me.
- 39:38SPEAKER_02: I may not even see them, I might just hear their voice.
- 39:40SPEAKER_02: Like this happened with my my kids' teacher during the pandemic.
- 39:44SPEAKER_02: They were on a Zoom and she was just talking, and I was like, She's pregnant.
- 39:47SPEAKER_02: And it's literally, I just knew, and like we found out like a month later, like, oh yeah, she's pregnant.
- 39:53SPEAKER_02: And I didn't see her.
- 39:54SPEAKER_02: I didn't see her on the Zoom.
- 39:55SPEAKER_02: Like, yeah, she's sitting at a desk.
- 39:56SPEAKER_02: You can see from here up.
- 39:57SPEAKER_02: Like, you can't tell anything.
- 39:58SPEAKER_02: But it's just that that clear knowing.
- 40:00SPEAKER_02: Um, there's clear olfactants, like that clear smelling.
- 40:03SPEAKER_02: I don't know if that's if you've ever experienced it, but it's like you can smell a past loved one, um, or you can smell um like a rat.
- 40:10SPEAKER_02: You can sniff out a lie, like you can just tell, like when someone's telling you something, you can like pick up right away that, like, no, this isn't the truth.
- 40:17SPEAKER_02: They're not in integrity with themselves.
- 40:20SPEAKER_02: Um and then, you know, where is this all in the chart?
- 40:23SPEAKER_02: Where is this in even design?
- 40:25SPEAKER_02: I wanted to like lay out what the Claire's were so we understood what we were looking at.
- 40:28SPEAKER_02: But you know, your instinct is really your comes from your spleen.
- 40:31SPEAKER_02: So if your listeners have, you know, their human design chart, you can pull it out and we can kind of walk through it.
- 40:36SPEAKER_02: But having, you know, your spleen is your center for instinct.
- 40:40SPEAKER_02: And actually, each of the gates on the spleen points to a different intuitive gift as well.
- 40:44SPEAKER_02: So, you know, it's that in-the-moment intuitive hit, like you mentioned, that small, quiet thing.
- 40:49SPEAKER_02: It's also where the where fear lives.
- 40:51SPEAKER_02: So every gate is also associated with a fear.
- 40:54SPEAKER_02: Um, the gates, for example, if you want to go through the spleen gates, like if you want to look at your chart, Kelly, like gate 48.
- 41:00SPEAKER_02: I'm looking.
- 41:01SPEAKER_02: Gate 48 is the gate of clairvoyance.
- 41:04SPEAKER_02: Um, it's having vivid dreams, it's having those future visions, it's kind of knowing without knowing how you kind of know in a way.
- 41:11SPEAKER_02: Um, gate 57.
- 41:13SPEAKER_02: This is the most intuitive gate in the chart.
- 41:16SPEAKER_02: It's called the psychic ear.
- 41:18SPEAKER_02: It's where clear audience lives.
- 41:19SPEAKER_02: Now, clear audience lives in, and all of these live in multiple places within the chart, but we're just kind of highlighting quickly.
- 41:25SPEAKER_02: Um, so it's really like, you know, that clear audience comes definitely from that 57.
- 41:29SPEAKER_02: It's very strong.
- 41:30SPEAKER_02: Clear um gate 44 is clear ollifactance, right?
- 41:35SPEAKER_02: And which is which makes sense because it's part of the channel of integrity, right?
- 41:39SPEAKER_02: So you can tell when someone's out of integrity, you can sniff out that lie, you can smell that something's off.
- 41:44SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 41:44SPEAKER_00: I have it's just interesting to me because you know, I have 48 connected to 16, and I have the channel from 44 to 26.
- 41:56SPEAKER_00: So it people cannot lie to me.
- 41:59SPEAKER_00: I might not tell you that I know you're lying because I think sometimes people are untruthful for so many different reasons.
- 42:07SPEAKER_00: So I'm not one to be like, nope.
- 42:10SPEAKER_00: But like if somebody tells you they're fine and they're not fine, I know you're not fine.
- 42:14SPEAKER_00: Like I've you didn't you'd have to say a word and I know you're not.
- 42:17SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's interesting.
- 42:19SPEAKER_02: And that's also that clair empathy, right?
- 42:21SPEAKER_02: So it's like the combination, right?
- 42:22SPEAKER_02: You all these things kind of play together.
- 42:24SPEAKER_02: So it's like you have all these different data points as you're talking to somebody that kind of help you clue you into that intuitive information.
- 42:30SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 42:31SPEAKER_02: Um, gate 50 is clairsentience.
- 42:34SPEAKER_02: So this actually is like really intuitively feeling what other people need.
- 42:38SPEAKER_02: It's a tribal energy.
- 42:39SPEAKER_02: So it's like knowing what your people need to bring them back into alignment.
- 42:46SPEAKER_02: Um, clear um gate 32 is clairvoyance, so awareness of what needs to be done to make a dream a reality, right?
- 42:53SPEAKER_02: That gate 32 is also about enduring and preparing for the next thing.
- 42:57SPEAKER_02: So that totally makes sense.
- 42:59SPEAKER_02: The gate 28 is clear audience and also clear um cognizance.
- 43:03SPEAKER_02: So it's part of the knowing circuit.
- 43:05SPEAKER_02: Um, the gate 28 is also associated with the gate of struggle, right?
- 43:09SPEAKER_02: So it's like being wise about what's worth struggling for and you know what's meant to come from that, um, what lessons you're here to learn.
- 43:17SPEAKER_02: You can even recognize the patterns in other people, too.
- 43:20SPEAKER_02: Um, gate 18 is clairsentience.
- 43:23SPEAKER_02: So, you know, that might even feel like you know, what's coming next, like a future sense of like what's going to happen.
- 43:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 43:32SPEAKER_00: I I think it's just so cool that you just you you talked about the spleen.
- 43:36SPEAKER_00: And I that for me is is a defined center and has a couple motor connections in in my chart.
- 43:46SPEAKER_00: Um, but I think I got myself into a lot of trouble when I was younger, not knowing that that that I had a lot of intuition and sort of like having more information about things than people knew I had because I just had it, you know, I just knew.
- 44:06SPEAKER_00: Um and, you know, already being mad at somebody for something that they didn't know I knew they did because I didn't have like factual, like concrete knowledge.
- 44:15SPEAKER_00: But that just like that just hit me.
- 44:17SPEAKER_00: I'm like, that's probably gotten me into trouble a couple times.
- 44:22SPEAKER_02: Well, it's interesting that you say that because I feel like even people who um have that like clear sight, like that close clear visions, like where they can see people who have passed, oftentimes, like when we're born, like we are born with our intuitive gifts like fully turned on.
- 44:39SPEAKER_02: And it's not until the age of seven where things kind of start to shift a little bit.
- 44:43SPEAKER_02: And if as children we had like imaginary friends or we saw loved ones who pass and we shared that with an adult, if we didn't feel accepted for that ability, right?
- 44:55SPEAKER_02: Or we were like kind of like, oh, like, okay, whatever, you know, I'm sure you saw grandpa, like I'm really sure, you know, like and you got turned off by that, or you felt scared because you were able to and you didn't understand why no one else could see this person that you were seeing, we turn it off.
- 45:10SPEAKER_02: And so I think that that happens.
- 45:12SPEAKER_02: Like if you have experiences where you know you have this information or you know something, and you have something that conditions you to like, maybe I sh maybe I don't really know.
- 45:21SPEAKER_02: You start questioning yourself, or you're like, this isn't safe to know, or this isn't safe to feel, or safe to see.
- 45:27SPEAKER_02: We turn it off and we can totally reactivate that.
- 45:31SPEAKER_02: And that's the beauty of intuition because we all have it and it's just a matter of cultivating it and learning how to access it in a safe way where we feel safe.
- 45:39SPEAKER_02: Because when we feel safe, it opens us up to receive more.
- 45:42SPEAKER_00: But yeah, I completely relate to that.
- 45:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah, feeling that feeling safe.
- 45:48SPEAKER_00: And I I think it it has made me so much happier, so much like lighter to to in the the capacity for healing.
- 45:58SPEAKER_00: Has been so huge because of that.
- 46:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 46:02SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 46:03SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 46:04SPEAKER_02: And then the trusting piece that comes along with it, right?
- 46:07SPEAKER_02: Trusting to know that you will be guided if you just listen.
- 46:13SPEAKER_02: And you don't have to know everything.
- 46:16SPEAKER_02: You don't have to figure out everything.
- 46:19SPEAKER_02: And I think even like when you lose, like I know, like you just lost your mom, like knowing that you still have a connection because that love doesn't die.
- 46:28SPEAKER_02: Right?
- 46:29SPEAKER_02: It's energy.
- 46:30SPEAKER_02: That's what this is all about.
- 46:31SPEAKER_02: It's all about energy, right?
- 46:32SPEAKER_02: Like love is the highest frequency of energy.
- 46:37SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 46:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 46:39SPEAKER_02: And being as empathic as you are, you can feel that.
- 46:44SPEAKER_02: I'm sure you can feel your mother's love around you.
- 46:47SPEAKER_02: Right?
- 46:48SPEAKER_00: Everywhere.
- 46:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's interesting.
- 46:52SPEAKER_00: Because I have such a clear, like when she was alive, I felt her energy with her.
- 47:00SPEAKER_00: And now I feel her energy everywhere.
- 47:05SPEAKER_00: It's like a like a warm blanket.
- 47:09SPEAKER_00: It's really cool.
- 47:10SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 47:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 47:12SPEAKER_02: It's a beautiful experience.
- 47:14SPEAKER_02: You know, we obviously would love to keep them all here, but we all know like we're still connected.
- 47:19SPEAKER_02: We're all connected all the time.
- 47:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I feel grateful that I had so many tools at my disposal for how to process.
- 47:30SPEAKER_00: And you know, I think a lot of a lot of times we become fearful of experiencing our feelings.
- 47:40SPEAKER_00: Like we think our feelings, we don't feel our feelings, we we talk them, we don't feel them.
- 47:46SPEAKER_00: And I've been so much more conscious of like allowing the feeling of feelings and not not feeling like I need to like prevent myself from feeling feelings.
- 48:00SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 48:00SPEAKER_00: And I think that's such a subtle thing, but it's a big thing.
- 48:03SPEAKER_00: It's really, really powerful.
- 48:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 48:06SPEAKER_02: I mean, it goes back to that control thing.
- 48:07SPEAKER_02: We tend to not want to feel those emotions because they're uncomfortable.
- 48:11SPEAKER_02: So we try to control them and stuff them down or distract ourselves away from them or numb ourselves from feeling them.
- 48:19SPEAKER_02: But we need to.
- 48:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 48:22SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 48:23SPEAKER_00: I haven't done the numbing.
- 48:25SPEAKER_00: I think, like, and that's the thing.
- 48:27SPEAKER_00: Like, I think a lot of us, that's like our quick like have a glass of wine, like, you know, disconnect.
- 48:34SPEAKER_00: I've really deepened connection.
- 48:39SPEAKER_00: You know, like when and it's a subtle change, but it's really, really powerful.
- 48:45SPEAKER_00: Um, and you know, I don't think having if I hadn't had all these experiences that I had, I don't think my experience of loss would be the way that it is.
- 48:56SPEAKER_00: And it's much more therapeutic than painful.
- 49:04SPEAKER_00: You know?
- 49:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah, definitely, for sure.
- 49:09SPEAKER_02: And that, you know, I love what you said though about how there wasn't fear, right?
- 49:17SPEAKER_02: Because fear keeps us stuck too.
- 49:23SPEAKER_02: And when we're stuck in the grieving process, it's really painful.
- 49:28SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 49:28SPEAKER_02: So painful.
- 49:29SPEAKER_02: And the grieving process doesn't end, right?
- 49:30SPEAKER_02: Like we have our moments, of course, and we're always going to miss them.
- 49:34SPEAKER_02: Like we miss being able to pick up the phone and to have that human interaction.
- 49:39SPEAKER_02: But if you know that you can connect with her still and still receive her guidance and her love, it's powerful.
- 49:47SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
- 49:48SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it really is.
- 49:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 49:51SPEAKER_00: And I think it it for me has allowed me to to you know to kind of bring it back to what we were talking about, to to still be available for experiencing joy.
- 50:03SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 50:05SPEAKER_00: And that that is the overall experience that life can continue to be joy-filled.
- 50:14SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 50:15SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 50:16SPEAKER_01: We're connected to love.
- 50:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 50:19SPEAKER_00: It's, I mean, and I think that's that's a huge piece of of this piece of being really connected to your intuition, at least for me, has been life is a lot easier, more in flow.
- 50:34SPEAKER_00: Um, it's not fast-paced.
- 50:39SPEAKER_00: That, you know, that I have always felt that pressure.
- 50:42SPEAKER_00: Like they talk about the, you know, the manifesting generator, like I've got the the open head and ajna and the open root, which means like it's a pressure cooker.
- 50:51SPEAKER_00: So always feeling this pressure.
- 50:53SPEAKER_00: So I feel the pressure, but I don't indulge the pressure.
- 50:57SPEAKER_00: So like that, that's been one of the things that I've I've learned through my intuition that like I can feel those triggers, but I don't have to indulge those triggers.
- 51:07SPEAKER_00: Not at all.
- 51:07SPEAKER_00: And and even though, you know, you do kind of when you indulge them, you get into like that complaining or like it gives you an excuse to do something, like you get that kind of like little little hit of I don't know if it's dopamine or or serotonin or something, like that kind of gives you that quick fix that you you have that feeling like everything is okay.
- 51:28SPEAKER_00: It's like choosing to do the deeper work, and it's a little bit harder and it's not as quick a response, but the overall arc is better, if that makes sense.
- 51:40SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 51:41SPEAKER_02: I mean, I think it comes down to like almost like divine timing in some way, right?
- 51:47SPEAKER_02: Like we feel like it's not controlling the timing because we're not in control of the timing and releasing into just allowing things to unfold because likely they're going to unfold better than what you even were pushing for.
- 52:03SPEAKER_02: So it's stopping from just pushing with willpower all the time.
- 52:08SPEAKER_02: And sometimes it's willpower we don't even have, right?
- 52:10SPEAKER_02: We're borrowing it from somebody else.
- 52:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 52:13SPEAKER_02: And oftentimes that leads us into frustrating situations, right?
- 52:18SPEAKER_02: Because I'm a generator.
- 52:19SPEAKER_02: So like similar emotional theme, right?
- 52:21SPEAKER_02: Of like pushes you like that frustration.
- 52:23SPEAKER_02: You're just like, oh my God, how did I get here?
- 52:25SPEAKER_02: How do I get out?
- 52:27SPEAKER_02: Which can be hard.
- 52:29SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 52:30SPEAKER_00: I that's so true.
- 52:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 52:32SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 52:32SPEAKER_00: I have a very I have a very strong will.
- 52:35SPEAKER_00: I have access to will.
- 52:36SPEAKER_00: So like I have to remind myself that not everybody has that.
- 52:39SPEAKER_00: So like when I dive into will, it's usually not my own energy to do it.
- 52:43SPEAKER_00: I just kind of have it.
- 52:45SPEAKER_00: But um, I think that's such a really good, a really good point, you know, kind of going back to how we treat ourselves and that that can be really hard on your body, even though it's positive and even though it's good, like if you're pushing yourself past what your human suit can do.
- 53:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well, we then we risk burnout.
- 53:06SPEAKER_02: Uh-huh.
- 53:07SPEAKER_02: So, and which a lot of us have experienced over the last couple of years, I think, you know, with the pandemic and everything like that.
- 53:13SPEAKER_02: It's, you know, if you keep pushing and pushing with energy reserves you don't have, or dipping into what you have and not doing it from the overflow like you talked about earlier, we really put ourselves at risk for burning out.
- 53:26SPEAKER_02: And then it's you're not connected to joy, right?
- 53:30SPEAKER_02: It it's harder to get back to that place of joy.
- 53:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 53:37SPEAKER_00: And I think what you said earlier about like being yourself, I think is is so important.
- 53:46SPEAKER_00: You know, we were talking about before we came on, like talking about social media and how, you know, you can feel this like desire to keep up with the Joneses, like do what everybody else is doing.
- 53:57SPEAKER_00: And then if you're not, you're doing something wrong.
- 54:00SPEAKER_00: And I I'm not talking like just everybody, I'm talking even like in the niche of the things that that you do, it's so easy to get pulled into that.
- 54:13unknown: Yeah.
- 54:13SPEAKER_02: And then you're not using your energy correctly because it's not aligned with who you are.
- 54:17SPEAKER_02: So it does go back to that.
- 54:18SPEAKER_02: You know, you have to put yourself out there in a way that feels correct for you and make sure like your human design actually, like that's one of the things I just love about it.
- 54:27SPEAKER_02: It's the simplest form of understanding your type, your strategy, and your authority.
- 54:31SPEAKER_02: It's like, how are you meant to interact with people energetically?
- 54:35SPEAKER_02: Right?
- 54:35SPEAKER_02: How are you meant to give your energy and receive your energy?
- 54:38SPEAKER_02: How are you meant to respond not respond, but like make decisions so that when you see other people doing things and you're being told this is how you have to do it to have success, you can listen to that inner authority that's like, oh, that doesn't feel right in some way.
- 54:56SPEAKER_02: Right?
- 54:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah, listen to that and not burn out because you're not gonna be using your energy in a way that doesn't is not correct for you.
- 55:05SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 55:06SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 55:07SPEAKER_00: And that was a harder and more recent in the past couple years lesson for me.
- 55:12SPEAKER_00: Like, I think I prioritized authoritative people, like people in authority over my own inner authority and made choices and then got to burnout, not physical burnout, but functional burnout.
- 55:29SPEAKER_00: Like, and it I hit October last year, and I was like, I don't want to do anything.
- 55:36SPEAKER_00: I just want to take a break.
- 55:37SPEAKER_00: And like it wasn't like I didn't feel sick, I didn't feel like completely run down, I wasn't lying on the couch, like I was still functioning, but like in terms of you know, pursuing things for myself, I was like, I needed to like clear the slate, clean off the whiteboard, leave it blank, and just give myself time and space to be on my own before I was ready in November to come back.
- 56:02SPEAKER_00: And and I came back and my guides tapped me on the shoulder and they were like, time for the podcast.
- 56:09SPEAKER_00: And I was like, really?
- 56:10SPEAKER_00: And they were like, go.
- 56:11SPEAKER_00: I was like, dude, what should it just start?
- 56:15SPEAKER_00: Just go.
- 56:16SPEAKER_00: So I I appreciate that like experience of like, you know, sometimes things are very subtle and sometimes it's literally a tap on the shoulder and like pointing you right where to go.
- 56:27SPEAKER_02: Absolutely, absolutely.
- 56:29SPEAKER_02: I can completely relate to your functional burnout.
- 56:31SPEAKER_02: I think I experienced it the same around the same time that you did.
- 56:34SPEAKER_02: And it was like as soon as like I started experiencing a lot more brain fog and like just started losing motivation for things that normally I was very driven by.
- 56:43SPEAKER_02: I was like, hold on, something's off.
- 56:45SPEAKER_02: I need to tune in, I need to go inward, I need to focus on me.
- 56:49SPEAKER_02: Like there's something up here.
- 56:50SPEAKER_02: I'm burnt out.
- 56:52SPEAKER_02: I can like you said, like I still had energy to like do what I needed to do, but they're just that motive that drive, like that passion just wasn't there.
- 57:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 57:02SPEAKER_00: And it's a strange feeling.
- 57:04SPEAKER_00: It's like this this emptiness.
- 57:06SPEAKER_00: And now I look at it, I can kind of I it's always better to look at things in hindsight because I feel like it could just kind of dissect it a little bit better.
- 57:14SPEAKER_00: And hindsight, I think I was operating in so many different directions that I was heading towards being burnt out and feeling dissatisfied.
- 57:24SPEAKER_00: Not because the things I was doing weren't lighting me up, because many of them were, they were enjoyable and I was good at doing them, but it was so diverse that I didn't feel like I had the capacity to put more into it and go bigger.
- 57:40SPEAKER_00: And it's super interesting to me because you're not the first person to say almost every single person I've talked to on this podcast has said something to you to the effect of being who you are, you know, being unique, being authentic, having integrity, like sticking to what it is that you you do, what you have to offer, and being that individual and like taking it to the nth degree because that's what we're really here to do.
- 58:12SPEAKER_00: We're not here to assimilate and you know, follow conditioning and be similar to one another.
- 58:18SPEAKER_00: We're here to be completely diverse and offering each of our unique colors to the planet.
- 58:26SPEAKER_00: And if I try to be more like you, it's inauthentic, it's not gonna feel good.
- 58:31SPEAKER_00: You know, not everybody is gonna be able to come on a podcast and say, I'm gonna talk about mystical things and we're gonna nerd out.
- 58:37SPEAKER_00: That's not for everyone and it doesn't have to be.
- 58:41SPEAKER_00: But, you know, I I keep getting that as the message, as what I'm supposed to be talking about.
- 58:48SPEAKER_00: And everybody that's coming on is sharing something very similar.
- 58:52SPEAKER_00: So it's it's interesting to me that you also had kind of that functional burnout around the same time.
- 58:58SPEAKER_00: And I'm sure a lot of it has to do with the flow of the pandemic, especially if you're a working parent.
- 59:04SPEAKER_00: Um, school going back in September and and just the exhaustion of everything.
- 59:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 59:13SPEAKER_02: I mean, we're definitely under, you know, the same collective energy.
- 59:16SPEAKER_02: And so it's interesting how like sometimes our paths were kind of experiencing the similar things and themes.
- 59:22SPEAKER_02: And it just maybe gets expressed differently through the lens and filter of who you are, like you said.
- 59:27SPEAKER_02: So, like for me, like what I experienced during that functional burnout was like I I started tuning more in and realized that there were certain things I still needed to heal and work on, even though I thought I had been through them, right?
- 59:40SPEAKER_02: Because I think that like personal healing journey is very personal, right?
- 59:43SPEAKER_02: You think you've healed something, and then all of a sudden it shows up in another way.
- 59:47SPEAKER_02: And it's almost like that was just the tip of the iceberg.
- 59:49SPEAKER_02: Oh, no, no, no.
- 59:51SPEAKER_02: There is way more underneath all this that needs to get cleared.
- 59:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 59:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 59:57SPEAKER_00: Oh my God.
- 59:58SPEAKER_00: So true.
- 59:58SPEAKER_00: So true.
- 59:59SPEAKER_00: I I think about like I I use the Akashic Records a lot.
- 1:00:03SPEAKER_00: Um, I have a friend Laura Mazzata who, you know, teaches if you've never done accessing your Akashic records, she teaches people a beautiful way to get in there.
- 1:00:13SPEAKER_00: Um, and so I started just doing that more frequently.
- 1:00:16SPEAKER_00: Um, I learned how to do it in the summer and I started doing it almost daily and um really delved into my inner landscape and and my my higher self.
- 1:00:29SPEAKER_00: And I realized like one of the things about the Akashic Records and your guides is they're never gonna give you more than you can handle in the moment.
- 1:00:38SPEAKER_00: So you can ask them questions, and there might be a bigger, bigger answer that you're not aligned with right now.
- 1:00:45SPEAKER_00: So it's like what you were aligned for healing at one moment is going to look vastly different the next time you get it at another level.
- 1:00:54SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:00:55SPEAKER_02: So, so, so true.
- 1:00:57SPEAKER_02: It's so true.
- 1:00:58SPEAKER_02: And I even can take that connection back to even when I'm connecting with people's loved ones who have passed.
- 1:01:04SPEAKER_02: If someone has passed within, you know, a one to two year span and we're connecting with them, they're only gonna share as much as that person's able to handle in that moment because they're still going through that healing and grieving process.
- 1:01:17SPEAKER_02: So it's fascinating because like what you're saying ties back in a lot of different ways.
- 1:01:22SPEAKER_02: Like, we're only given as much as we're able to handle.
- 1:01:25SPEAKER_02: And I think that like, you know, that's always been like a motto of mine is like, God's not gonna give me anything I can't handle.
- 1:01:30SPEAKER_02: It's true.
- 1:01:31SPEAKER_02: And again, like it might show up again and I might have to do the work again, but it's from a different perspective.
- 1:01:37SPEAKER_02: There's a different, it's almost like you're zooming out a little bit further each time, you know, like to see like a little bit more than you saw before.
- 1:01:44SPEAKER_02: Or maybe you're zooming in, right?
- 1:01:45SPEAKER_02: You're getting a little more granular, a little more detail, depends on how you want to look at it.
- 1:01:49SPEAKER_02: But it's just um it's amazing how like we can feel safe when we're going through things because we're not given more than what we're able to kind of process at the time at the moment.
- 1:02:01SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:02:02SPEAKER_00: Because we're being protective.
- 1:02:04SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:02:05SPEAKER_00: And I I think that's the lesson that I've learned more than anything in this past year or so is that you are more protected and surrounded by love than you could even imagine.
- 1:02:20SPEAKER_00: Our brains don't have a full capacity for that.
- 1:02:23SPEAKER_00: And recognizing that makes a lot of those moves that you would have second-guessed yourself for a lot safer to shift into.
- 1:02:33SPEAKER_02: And that's kind of one of the things I always say: like, how do you move past the fear?
- 1:02:37SPEAKER_02: It's really the trust, the faith that you're being divinely supported and divinely guided and divinely protected all the time.
- 1:02:45SPEAKER_02: And that love, when you feel it, is unlike any kind of love I feel like you can experience here on earth because you're not your human body can't even almost handle it all.
- 1:02:53SPEAKER_02: Because it's so much and it's so powerful and it's so beautiful that it would like our human form can't handle it all.
- 1:03:01SPEAKER_02: We can't.
- 1:03:02SPEAKER_00: Like this vision of us just like poof.
- 1:03:05SPEAKER_00: Exactly, exactly.
- 1:03:08SPEAKER_00: I love that.
- 1:03:09SPEAKER_00: I love that.
- 1:03:11SPEAKER_00: So I want to shift into a little more about you and what you're up to.
- 1:03:17SPEAKER_00: How are you taking all of this and and how can people connect with and work with you?
- 1:03:22SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 1:03:23SPEAKER_02: So um I am an energy energy healer and a life coach.
- 1:03:27SPEAKER_02: And so I do work with clients one-on-one.
- 1:03:29SPEAKER_02: Um, I'm currently working on a bunch of different things.
- 1:03:31SPEAKER_02: I feel like I'm in this like creative phase right now, um, where I have like all these great ideas and I'm sort of working on implementing them, but I'm working on like a signature program of how to really reconnect back to your joy and kind of getting more granular on how to get through like those, those big foundational things in a deeper level, right?
- 1:03:50SPEAKER_02: Like how sometimes we just need like a guide or someone to kind of coach us through and give us the tools that we need to get there because we can talk about it at a very high level, but you really kind of have to roll up your sleeves, be ready to like roll up your sleeves and do the work and to have someone who can hold a safe space for you to be able to do that in a way that allows for the deep shifts that have to happen or that need to happen or that do happen, I think allows it to unfold.
- 1:04:18SPEAKER_02: Um, so I'm creating a community.
- 1:04:20SPEAKER_02: I'm looking to create a community online of people that can really kind of we can all help each other and support each other.
- 1:04:26SPEAKER_02: But then there's gonna be some elements of like coaching that's gonna kind of come along with that.
- 1:04:29SPEAKER_02: So doing some, you know, some free content and then offering some courses as well that people can kind of do at their own pace because I realize that we're all super busy and sometimes meaning at the same time, the same day every week doesn't always work with our busy schedules.
- 1:04:42SPEAKER_02: So, anyway, you can find me on Instagram, Curissa Step.
- 1:04:46SPEAKER_02: Um, you can also find me at my website, www.curissa step.com.
- 1:04:51SPEAKER_02: Um, we'll probably I'd love to include a link to Genetic Matrix so people can run their human design charts if they would like to.
- 1:04:57SPEAKER_02: And I'm happy to, you know, talk to anyone if you're interested in a reading and understanding more about who you are, just as a standalone service, I do that as well.
- 1:05:06SPEAKER_02: And I'm also an intuitive medium, so I I love connecting people with their loved ones who have passed.
- 1:05:11SPEAKER_00: So yeah, you wear a lot of hats, but you know what?
- 1:05:15SPEAKER_00: I I find I I kind of got into this idea of like people were saying, like, you gotta niche, like you gotta, and and the second you say niche to me, I get this like I don't want to.
- 1:05:30SPEAKER_00: I don't want to be boxed in.
- 1:05:31SPEAKER_00: I want to be, but I think it sometimes that like the the arc of different things that sort of fit who you are and what you do, even though it doesn't make sense in a box, like you can't make it very linear, but when you look at it more deeply, it really does all connect so beautifully together, you know.
- 1:05:56SPEAKER_00: Um, and I I love that.
- 1:05:59SPEAKER_00: I think that's that's such a beautiful thing.
- 1:06:01SPEAKER_00: I think it's great to be diverse because ultimately it sounds like what you're really helping people do is just live a more vibrant and joy-filled life by being more yourself, more connected, um, and feeling safe to express who you are.
- 1:06:20SPEAKER_00: Yes, absolutely.
- 1:06:22SPEAKER_02: And I, you know, I think every element of what I do has to do with healing and energy, right?
- 1:06:28SPEAKER_02: Because I think at the end of the day, like we all just are energetic beings.
- 1:06:31SPEAKER_02: And so to get you into, you know, energetic alignment, you know, is is so important to just living that that life of joy.
- 1:06:42SPEAKER_02: Um, and so, yes, absolutely.
- 1:06:44SPEAKER_02: Like I do a lot of different things.
- 1:06:45SPEAKER_02: I have a lot of different modalities and tools in my toolkit, and I use them with clients in one-on-one sessions based on what it is they need because I really feel like I'm here to help people.
- 1:06:56SPEAKER_02: And oftentimes people come to me when they're dealing with some sort of big transition in their lives, like big transformations are kind of coming.
- 1:07:04SPEAKER_02: They feel this, this um overwhelming sense that something needs to change because they're feeling stuck, right?
- 1:07:11SPEAKER_02: And they need to get out of that place of stuckness.
- 1:07:13SPEAKER_02: So I'm here to kind of really help them get back to that place of joy away from being stuck.
- 1:07:18SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:07:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I think that's huge.
- 1:07:21SPEAKER_00: And I think so many people after the past couple of years are sort of, I don't know many people who aren't looking at, okay, so what is next?
- 1:07:30SPEAKER_00: Like, how am I taking all of this, everything that's happened, and and making some sort of meaning out of it and and shifting forward.
- 1:07:41SPEAKER_00: You know, I feel like there's so few people now.
- 1:07:44SPEAKER_00: At least that's just kind of my sense of it, who are like looking back, like, let's get back there.
- 1:07:50SPEAKER_00: There's a lot more people who are like, uh, I don't know.
- 1:07:53SPEAKER_00: I feel like there's there's something to be loved about.
- 1:07:58SPEAKER_00: What we experienced over the past couple of years.
- 1:08:01SPEAKER_02: Well, I mean, even just looking at the great resignation, right?
- 1:08:04SPEAKER_02: Movement, I mean, that's just a proof that we don't want to go back.
- 1:08:08SPEAKER_02: We are reprioritizing.
- 1:08:10SPEAKER_02: We're reprioritizing our joy, hopefully.
- 1:08:14SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:08:15SPEAKER_02: We're making it more important.
- 1:08:16SPEAKER_02: We want a better work-life balance.
- 1:08:18SPEAKER_02: We want to do things we love, things that we're passionate about, things that motivate us, that drive us.
- 1:08:24SPEAKER_02: And it just feels like we're definitely, and everyone, a lot of people talk about this, especially in the human design world, like we are on the precipice of really redefining what our world looks like, what well-being looks like, even just the structure of you know, the energetic exchange of money.
- 1:08:44SPEAKER_02: So, not to get that could be like a whole other topic for another podcast.
- 1:08:47SPEAKER_02: Totally.
- 1:08:48SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh, it certainly could be.
- 1:08:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:08:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I feel that too.
- 1:08:52SPEAKER_00: I feel that we're kind of at a tipping point.
- 1:08:55SPEAKER_00: You can feel the energy rising and you can feel the more people sort of becoming aligned and connected into shifting change.
- 1:09:07SPEAKER_00: And that is what is exciting to me, like this possibility of, you know, really truly shifting the world, changing things.
- 1:09:17SPEAKER_02: We're basically tearing down old structures, right?
- 1:09:19SPEAKER_02: We're tearing down old foundations that no longer fit the level of consciousness that we're rising to at this time.
- 1:09:25SPEAKER_00: And what's crazy is it's such like a like some people are out there and they're very like obvious about what they're doing, but there's so many more of us who are just very quietly sitting on our meditation mats and doing the work one person at a time and creating change that's lasting.
- 1:09:46SPEAKER_00: And so I think what's important about that for me, or what's coming through to share, that's important about that, is that not to discredit yourself for even the smallest act of love or self-love.
- 1:10:01SPEAKER_00: So you said this before about, you know, self-love and getting on that meditation mat or doing that exercise routine or saying no to things that don't light you up so that you can have more time for yourself or with your family.
- 1:10:17SPEAKER_00: Every time you shift and you change that way and you choose love over anything else, you're changing the planet.
- 1:10:27SPEAKER_02: Because everything we do impacts everyone around us.
- 1:10:31SPEAKER_02: There's always a ripple effect.
- 1:10:33SPEAKER_02: Because we are all connected.
- 1:10:36SPEAKER_02: So it starts with us.
- 1:10:37SPEAKER_02: You're absolutely right.
- 1:10:38SPEAKER_02: Like it starts with us, it starts with our internal world will impact what we create in our outer world.
- 1:10:44SPEAKER_02: So if we all do the work on ourselves, we can have a greater impact on how the outside world looks and how it gets recreated.
- 1:10:51SPEAKER_02: Because I feel like we are definitely in a big period of transition.
- 1:10:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you can feel it.
- 1:10:57SPEAKER_00: What is it?
- 1:10:58SPEAKER_00: It's a 2027 that there's just going to be this.
- 1:11:01SPEAKER_00: So we're we're coming up on that.
- 1:11:03SPEAKER_00: I know a lot of people are gonna be like, what's happening in 2027?
- 1:11:06SPEAKER_00: What do I need to do?
- 1:11:09SPEAKER_00: All other podcasts yeah.
- 1:11:11SPEAKER_00: Well, and you know what else is coming through for me is um that uh I and I've been getting this intuitive hit for doing uh a series on my podcast for children and um talking with people like yourself about how do we build resiliency, how do we help our children learn how to do self-healing techniques?
- 1:11:37SPEAKER_00: And um, I know as a mom, like I had to sort of get myself under control before I really felt, you know, not that I wasn't parenting and not that I wasn't being a good mom, but I felt like I needed so much self-work before I was fully available to be a really good mom.
- 1:11:53SPEAKER_00: Um, and and this could be, you know, moms, dads, grandparents, anybody who identifies as a parent or as a somebody who cares for children.
- 1:12:03SPEAKER_00: So um I would love to have you come back where we can think about um what we'd want to talk about, but like maybe even just how do we infuse joy and intuition in kids and using human design with our own children and guiding them, you know, and helping them to feel more aligned from an early age.
- 1:12:23SPEAKER_02: Absolutely, 100%.
- 1:12:25SPEAKER_02: And you know, just to kind of go back to what you were saying, it's like it's almost like when you're on the airplane, right?
- 1:12:29SPEAKER_02: The oxygen masks drop down.
- 1:12:31SPEAKER_02: We have to put one on ourselves first before we can help others around us.
- 1:12:34SPEAKER_02: And it's so, it's so important.
- 1:12:36SPEAKER_02: Definitely like as a parent, if you want to become a better parent, the first thing you need to do is work on yourself, heal your own inner child.
- 1:12:44SPEAKER_02: And when you do that work, honestly, like even when you because I've done this like and I've noticed it in my children.
- 1:12:49SPEAKER_02: Like, as I've done the work on myself, I've noticed big changes in them because it impacts them.
- 1:12:55SPEAKER_02: And understanding your child's human design and talking to them about who they are helps them stay true to that, right?
- 1:13:04SPEAKER_02: Like it's so powerful in that sense that you can under you can understand another human being on a different level, and it gives them permission to be who they are, and it's okay that they're different from us because I think when we were children, I think oftentimes, and my mother-in-law does this all the time, like she'll be like, Oh, he reminds me of you know Joe, like, because he used to do that.
- 1:13:28SPEAKER_02: And I'm like, but he's his own person, you know, like he's doing it because he, yeah, it's like they definitely get conditioned by us and everything, but our designs actually don't come from our parents, they come from our grandparents, so it's very interesting how that all works out too.
- 1:13:40SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and and I think it's really about sovereignty.
- 1:13:44SPEAKER_00: That's my word this year.
- 1:13:45SPEAKER_00: That's the word I was given.
- 1:13:47SPEAKER_00: And um, so I've been, you know, doing all that sovereign work in myself, but trying to really think about my relationships with other people, my relationship with my husband, my son, my family.
- 1:13:59SPEAKER_00: Like, how am I supporting people to be more sovereign and respecting them as an individual?
- 1:14:05SPEAKER_00: And it's like I I've released so much control, and it's like, okay, now you're gonna take it to another level.
- 1:14:12SPEAKER_00: Here is here's releasing control in in like those subtle ways, you know.
- 1:14:17SPEAKER_00: Like you said, like those little comments that you make, and um, you know, letting kids explore who they are and what they like, and they don't have to be like you, they don't have to do things the same way.
- 1:14:31SPEAKER_00: So, yeah.
- 1:14:33SPEAKER_02: And even how they're meant to make decisions and how you can more effectively communicate with them too, right?
- 1:14:41SPEAKER_02: Which is huge.
- 1:14:41SPEAKER_02: I mean, the energy dynamics between you as the parent and your child, like what connections do you make energetically that come into play in your relationship that you are if you're aware of it, it might change the way in which you approach certain things with them or in the way in which you communicate with them.
- 1:15:01SPEAKER_02: Um, which is also, you know, I think huge.
- 1:15:04SPEAKER_02: It's like, you know, being strong in who you are, but also understanding how your energy impacts someone else and how their energy impacts you.
- 1:15:12SPEAKER_02: It's just like another little there, it's just more data points, it's just more information that we have.
- 1:15:18SPEAKER_02: Because every day what we're doing is we're exchanging energy back and forth with the world around us, with the people around us.
- 1:15:24SPEAKER_02: So having your energy feel clear, doing the work that you need to do allows you to come through authentically as who you are so that you can draw other people into integrity with who they are.
- 1:15:37SPEAKER_02: Because that's that's pretty much what happens.
- 1:15:39SPEAKER_02: It's like if you're living out who you are, you're encouraging then other people to be who they are because they see you doing it.
- 1:15:48unknown: Yeah.
- 1:15:49SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:15:49SPEAKER_02: And then again, it's like a subtle thing, it happens on an energetic level.
- 1:15:53SPEAKER_02: It's not even conscious.
- 1:15:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:15:55SPEAKER_00: And and don't be afraid when you trigger people.
- 1:15:59SPEAKER_00: Because I'm noticing a lot of that too.
- 1:16:02SPEAKER_00: That you know, when you when you're doing this work and you know, like you said, it's on an energetic level.
- 1:16:09SPEAKER_00: So you people feel that on an they feel that energy before they hear the words that you say or what you do.
- 1:16:20SPEAKER_00: And so sometimes their their inner resistance is showing up because they're not ready for that.
- 1:16:26unknown: Yeah.
- 1:16:27SPEAKER_02: They're not ready, or depending on like the configurations in the chart, it could even feel like competition to them.
- 1:16:34SPEAKER_02: You might be inspiring competition in them, and they're like, Hold on, like she's up here, and I'm like kind of down here, like how this isn't there.
- 1:16:41SPEAKER_02: How do I get there?
- 1:16:42SPEAKER_02: You know, or um, try to bring you back down, right?
- 1:16:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:16:47SPEAKER_00: So yeah, definitely.
- 1:16:49SPEAKER_00: I'm just kind of I think I'm more tuned into that than I used to be.
- 1:16:54SPEAKER_00: So yeah.
- 1:16:55SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:16:56SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm gonna look forward to another conversation.
- 1:16:59SPEAKER_00: Definitely having you back to talk about, you know, using that intuition and human design with your children.
- 1:17:06SPEAKER_00: Um, I'm so appreciative of your time and your energy.
- 1:17:10SPEAKER_00: Um, it's it's amazing.
- 1:17:12SPEAKER_00: We could probably go on a lot longer because this topic is just such a great one.
- 1:17:17SPEAKER_00: Um, but I really encourage people to connect with Carissa, find her on Instagram.
- 1:17:23SPEAKER_00: Um, and I'm excited to see what you're up to.
- 1:17:26SPEAKER_00: And um, I'd love for you to come back anytime.
- 1:17:28SPEAKER_00: Thank you, Kelly.
- 1:17:29SPEAKER_00: I really appreciate it.
- 1:17:30SPEAKER_00: This was great.
- 1:17:31SPEAKER_00: I love talking with you as always.
- 1:17:33SPEAKER_00: So thank you so much.
- 1:17:35SPEAKER_02: All right, take care, everyone, and have a good one.
