Why I named this podcast “Remember Why You are Here” · Remember Why You Are Here

• 0:01
  We live our whole lives seeking the answer to that question,
• 0:06
  why am I here?
• 0:08
  And the reason why we seek it is because we know there's a reason.
• 0:26
  Hello and welcome to Remember Why You Are Here,
• 0:30
  a podcast for seekers and sensitives where you can relax, receive,
• 0:34
  reconnect yourself and remember the most important thing of all:
• 0:39
  why you are here. I am Asia Suler, author, teacher,
• 0:44
  earth intuitive,
• 0:45
  and this is the very first episode of my brand new
• 0:49
  podcast. I am so excited to be here with you.
• 0:52
  I have been thinking for a long time about starting a podcast.
• 0:57
  And for probably just as long I was trying to figure out what I wanted to call
• 1:02
  this podcast.
• 1:02
  I knew that this was the next iteration of how I wanted to share here,
• 1:09
  but for a long time I was sort of stuck on the title.
• 1:12
  What do I want to call this new offering, this new piece in the world?
• 1:17
  And I wanted to share a little bit in this inaugural episode,
• 1:20
  now that this podcast is finally coming to fruition, which I'm so excited about,
• 1:25
  I wanted to share a little bit about why I chose this name.
• 1:29
  Remember Why You Are Here. Now I have for the last 13 years of my life,
• 1:34
  had a folder on the desktop of my computer called Remember Why You Are
• 1:39
  Here. And over the years, anytime I've gotten a message,
• 1:44
  an email, anything that has helped me to remember this,
• 1:48
  I put it in that folder.
• 1:49
  So if you've ever written me an email of love and support,
• 1:52
  it's possible that your email is probably in "Remember Why You Are Here".
• 1:57
  And it's a folder that I look at when I need to remember,
• 2:01
  when I need to reconnect to this understanding.
• 2:05
  And I think it's something that as sensitives and seekers,
• 2:10
  we deeply need, we need to be reminded of why we are here.
• 2:14
  Because the going gets tough sometimes and life on earth is not always easy.
• 2:19
  And so this motion of remembering why you are here is incredibly important.
• 2:25
  So at the end of September, a massive,
• 2:27
  completely unprecedented hurricane swept through our mountains causing
• 2:32
  a thousand year flood. And in the aftermath of that,
• 2:37
  among many other things, our town of Marshall,
• 2:41
  North Carolina was completely destroyed. And my apothecary.
• 2:45
  So I had an apothecary on an island in the middle of the river in Marshall
• 2:50
  called One Willow Apothecaries.
• 2:53
  It was a really big pivotal moment and time in my
• 2:57
  life.
• 2:58
  I'm still finding words to express just how powerful that entire
• 3:03
  experience was. That October,
• 3:07
  it was my plan to work on this podcast, to bring this podcast into fruition.
• 3:12
  And instead,
• 3:13
  I was dealing with all the things that come with living through a really massive
• 3:17
  natural disaster.
• 3:20
  But one night I was laying in bed late at night and
• 3:25
  was just sort of letting my mind drift.
• 3:27
  And I just heard this voice come in and said,
• 3:29
  what about Remember Why You're Here for the podcast name?
• 3:33
  And at first I thought, no, I don't know. It's kind of on the nose.
• 3:38
  It's very direct. But the voice was insistent. Remember why you are here.
• 3:42
  I'm like, am I worthy of having a podcast called Remember Why You Are here?
• 3:48
  But it wouldn't go away.
• 3:49
  And so I sat with it for some days and I realized over those days, as these
• 3:55
  omens of support came in and these moments where I was living through
• 4:00
  such a incredible soul trial,
• 4:04
  this trial that was redirecting me back to this remembrance,
• 4:07
  I realized that there's this level in which Remember Why You Are Here
• 4:12
  is the perfect name for this podcast.
• 4:16
  I have always been really passionate about this,
• 4:20
  about helping people remember why they're here and specifically
• 4:25
  helping other sensitives and seekers remember why they're here.
• 4:29
  I think this is a very human question.
• 4:32
  It's one that we have asked ourselves throughout all of time.
• 4:36
  It might even be the defining question of humanity.
• 4:41
  One of the things that makes humanity unique is we even ask this question at
• 4:45
  all. Why am I here?
• 4:47
  And not only do we ask it like we seek it, we yearn for it.
• 4:51
  We long for its answer.
• 4:53
  We live our whole lives seeking the answer to that question,
• 4:58
  why am I here?
• 5:00
  And the reason why we seek it is because we know there's a reason.
• 5:04
  We know there's a reason. And this is what drives us, right?
• 5:08
  This inner feeling, this inner understanding,
• 5:11
  and knowing that there is a reason why we're here and that we want to
• 5:15
  know it. We want to experience it, and we want to live into it.
• 5:20
  We know that we're here for a reason.
• 5:24
  And it's one of those things that really keeps us going,
• 5:26
  especially as sensitive hearted people that were here on this earth at this time
• 5:31
  for a reason.
• 5:33
  And one thing I have found in my own life and in the lives of the thousands of
• 5:36
  people that I've guided so far is that hardship itself
• 5:41
  is a passageway into remembering why we're here.
• 5:46
  And this just came alive for me in such a specific crystal clear
• 5:50
  way when I lived through the hurricane.
• 5:53
  In this time of great upheaval,
• 5:57
  I was able to see and remember it. It just got so clear in that moment,
• 6:01
  why am I here? And I think this question,
• 6:05
  it's not leading us to one answer, right?
• 6:08
  This question is leading us into the multifaceted
• 6:13
  reality of who we are,
• 6:15
  the presence of ourselves as multifaceted beings.
• 6:19
  Asking this question is what brings us in contact with this
• 6:24
  multifarious self,
• 6:26
  all the different sides of our beings that are here to be expressed,
• 6:30
  understood, and explored,
• 6:32
  and work together in this synergy in conjunction to bring forth
• 6:37
  the gifts that we were meant to deliver into this world.
• 6:41
  Because make no mistake about it, you are here to bring a gift to this planet.
• 6:46
  You are part of the earth's greater dreaming.
• 6:49
  You came into being for a reason,
• 6:51
  and there is a reason why you are here.
• 6:55
  And this podcast and all the roads we'll go down together was designed to help
• 7:00
  you remember that, to help you reconnect to that.
• 7:04
  I've always loved the word remember because it's such a somatic,
• 7:08
  tactile word.
• 7:09
  Re-member literally to put something back together like making
• 7:14
  whole once again is to re-member something.
• 7:18
  And so this is what we do in our life as we move down our journey is we're
• 7:22
  picking up these pieces. And as we pick up each piece,
• 7:25
  we can remember we can become whole again.
• 7:29
  We integrate and illuminate once more
• 7:35
  the central core tenant of our mission.
• 7:37
  Like that thing at the heart of us that we know we came into this world knowing
• 7:41
  and that now we're simply remembering by becoming whole once more.
• 7:47
  And this is the journey.
• 7:48
  This is the journey of being an individual on this planet, of being a human,
• 7:52
  of being a sensitive is realizing that through our own journey of
• 7:57
  recognizing our wholeness, of starting to come to understand,
• 8:02
  accept ourselves, have compassion for ourselves, integrate who we are,
• 8:07
  celebrate who we are, that it's through finding that wholeness,
• 8:10
  that we understand our mission again, that we glimpse it,
• 8:14
  that we can have it be a guiding light that brings us forward.
• 8:19
  Because when we can remember why we're here, everything gets easier.
• 8:25
  Even if we don't know what the next step is in our life,
• 8:28
  even if we're not sure what that even looks like or what the future
• 8:33
  holds,
• 8:34
  having a embodied remembrance of why we're here.
• 8:39
  And again,
• 8:40
  I'm not speaking of necessarily having this intellectual understanding,
• 8:44
  although I welcome that and I love it when it comes for my own self.
• 8:48
  But this embodied remembering of why you're here,
• 8:52
  it's like that fizzy and enlivening
• 8:57
  integrated sort of champagne like feeling when you just have this sense,
• 9:01
  this awareness of like, yes, this is why I'm here.
• 9:05
  It's that energy, it's that moment of revelation.
• 9:09
  It's our life is made up of these series of revelations, right?
• 9:13
  It's that moment of revelation that helps you move
• 9:17
  onwards, that helps you take that next step.
• 9:20
  It's like when we have this seed awareness within
• 9:24
  ourselves of why we're here, it all gets so clear.
• 9:28
  And the stuff that you're not meant for,
• 9:31
  the stuff that doesn't deserve your attention,
• 9:35
  the stuff you're ready to let go of, that also gets really clear too.
• 9:38
  And I think we're at a moment in time right now where we're really being asked
• 9:42
  to get clear in that way,
• 9:44
  where we're being asked to prioritize
• 9:49
  our mission, the reason why we came into this earth,
• 9:53
  why we came into this being. We're being asked to remember why we are here.
• 9:59
  And that journey of remembering can be truly delightful.
• 10:03
  So this is the start.
• 10:04
  This is the start of this journey of Remember Why You Are Here,
• 10:08
  this podcast with me, Asia Suler,
• 10:11
  and I'm just so delighted that you're here.
• 10:13
  There's so much more I'm excited about sharing with you. But until next time,
• 10:18
  take care.
• 10:19
  Be gentle with yourself and whenever you can remember why you are here.
