Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Hi, it's Amy with Intuitive Coaching with Amy Radio. This
- 0:04Speaker 1: is your sacred space for spiritual clarity, energetic alignment, and
- 0:08Speaker 1: remembering who you are today. We're going to talk about
- 0:12Speaker 1: something that is rarely spoken of in spiritual circles and
- 0:16Speaker 1: in personal development spaces, the difference between knowing when you're
- 0:21Speaker 1: being called to grow and when you actually need to
- 0:25Speaker 1: practice energetic self protection. This show is for you if
- 0:32Speaker 1: you've been feeling emotionally shaken, foggy, suddenly uncertain of yourself,
- 0:39Speaker 1: questioning your confidence, not because something deep within you needs
- 0:44Speaker 1: to be healed, but because of a very particular kind
- 0:48Speaker 1: of energy you've recently encountered. Let's talk about what really
- 0:54Speaker 1: happens when someone enters your life and you start to
- 0:57Speaker 1: question everything, and it'll show up like a sign if
- 1:06Speaker 1: you're questioning a lot. I want to start here. I
- 1:09Speaker 1: just went through this. I encountered an energy and it
- 1:14Speaker 1: made me feel like I needed to question all these
- 1:16Speaker 1: aspects of myself and what I had to stop and realize.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Believe me, I immediately wanted to run to my journal
- 1:24Speaker 1: and be like, oh my god, I got to work
- 1:26Speaker 1: through all of these things. Why is it like this? Right?
- 1:29Speaker 1: And I thought it was me, but in actuality, the
- 1:33Speaker 1: way it was presenting itself, it was a very solid
- 1:39Speaker 1: energy that I was encountering, and signs present as very solid,
- 1:45Speaker 1: almost immovable, because what they are is just information. And
- 1:49Speaker 1: so it took me a moment to reorient myself and
- 1:53Speaker 1: see it as just information. I was like, oh, this
- 1:57Speaker 1: is a sign that this is not an energy I
- 2:00Speaker 1: need to be around. It has nothing to do with
- 2:04Speaker 1: am I healed enough. It just is a sign I
- 2:08Speaker 1: need to move away from this type of energy. And
- 2:11Speaker 1: so it could be for you. It could be a colleague,
- 2:14Speaker 1: it could be someone you hired, It could be a friend,
- 2:17Speaker 1: it could be a family member, it could be a client.
- 2:20Speaker 1: And suddenly, after being around them, or interacting with them,
- 2:23Speaker 1: or engaging them or working on whatever you're working on
- 2:26Speaker 1: with them, you begin to question the foundation of who
- 2:29Speaker 1: you are. You question if you're even good enough at
- 2:34Speaker 1: what you do. You question if you're safe, You question
- 2:37Speaker 1: if you're sane, You question if you're spiritually strong enough.
- 2:41Speaker 1: You question whether you've healed enough, You question your belief system,
- 2:48Speaker 1: and worst of all, you turn that questioning inward and
- 2:51Speaker 1: you think, well, I must not be evolved enough. I
- 2:54Speaker 1: need to go and do some more work on myself.
- 2:56Speaker 1: But here's the truth. This is not an invitation to
- 3:01Speaker 1: fix yourself. It's your intuition guiding you, showing you that
- 3:09Speaker 1: this energy is not for you. Get clear, step back,
- 3:14Speaker 1: move away. So, if you're encountering an energy that's making
- 3:18Speaker 1: you question everything, stop stop. It's just a sign that
- 3:29Speaker 1: that is not the right energy for you to be around. Now.
- 3:33Speaker 1: Will there be instances and circumstances and people that show
- 3:37Speaker 1: up and help you go to your next level, Yes,
- 3:42Speaker 1: but it's very different than what I'm talking about. That's
- 3:45Speaker 1: more like, you know, a sprinkle, right, it's a sprinkle.
- 3:49Speaker 1: But if your full interaction with someone has made you
- 3:53Speaker 1: fully and completely question who you are, and it doesn't
- 3:56Speaker 1: necessarily even need to you don't need to villainize them
- 3:59Speaker 1: in the product. But if it's making you just question
- 4:02Speaker 1: your whole interaction with them is making you question, that
- 4:06Speaker 1: is a spiritual sign to move away from that person,
- 4:13Speaker 1: because chances are you probably really don't even like that person,
- 4:16Speaker 1: You don't enjoy their company. Something about that interaction you
- 4:20Speaker 1: feel like you need it, So that's why you're you know,
- 4:24Speaker 1: you have to look at that. But the reason why
- 4:27Speaker 1: you're even subjecting yourself to that question is because of
- 4:30Speaker 1: that whatever, that thing you've convinced yourself you need. But
- 4:36Speaker 1: if you were to step back from it and you
- 4:38Speaker 1: didn't have that need, and somebody showed up in your
- 4:40Speaker 1: world and energy showed up in your world that was
- 4:42Speaker 1: making you question yourself, you would instantly see, oh my god,
- 4:46Speaker 1: I don't need to be around you. No, no, nope,
- 4:49Speaker 1: I don't need to be around you. This energy is
- 4:52Speaker 1: not for me. I'm moving away from that, right. But
- 4:57Speaker 1: it's usually connected to type of need within you. That's
- 5:04Speaker 1: that's the best way I can describe it. I when
- 5:06Speaker 1: I first when I wrote my first novel, when I
- 5:09Speaker 1: finished the first creative draft of the novel, or the
- 5:12Speaker 1: first draft, I didn't have a process at that time
- 5:15Speaker 1: the way I do now. I had done some research
- 5:19Speaker 1: on what do you do you finish your novel, and
- 5:22Speaker 1: you know, the recommendation was to pass along to some
- 5:27Speaker 1: beta readers and get some feedback, and so I immediately
- 5:32Speaker 1: you know, that was when I was active on Facebook.
- 5:35Speaker 1: I have not touched Facebook in years, but that was
- 5:38Speaker 1: when I was active on Facebook, and I jumped into
- 5:40Speaker 1: a reader's group and I started asking you know for
- 5:45Speaker 1: beta readers, and so I wind up connecting with three
- 5:49Speaker 1: different people, and two of them were, you know, I
- 5:54Speaker 1: sent the workout. Two of them were. They gave me
- 5:57Speaker 1: saying right feet back, just like, hey, here's what I thought.
- 6:02Speaker 1: You know. They didn't go in like deep, deep depth,
- 6:05Speaker 1: And it definitely didn't make me question my character and
- 6:08Speaker 1: it didn't make me question my work. It was just insight, right,
- 6:13Speaker 1: That's what the platform was for. They enjoyed reading the
- 6:17Speaker 1: work and being a part of the process in that way,
- 6:21Speaker 1: and I enjoyed being able to share the work with someone.
- 6:25Speaker 1: And in that exchange, I got feedback and it was natural,
- 6:29Speaker 1: normal and regular, and I took that guidance and used
- 6:33Speaker 1: it and made the work better. There was a third
- 6:35Speaker 1: person and I me, and this woman lit into me.
- 6:41Speaker 1: She started trying to rewrite whole sections, tried to turn
- 6:47Speaker 1: my hero into another character. And I spent the weekend
- 6:54Speaker 1: and I was still married. I remember laying on the
- 6:56Speaker 1: couch and my ex husband was milling around and I
- 6:59Speaker 1: was just going back and forth and questioning everything about myself.
- 7:04Speaker 1: And I felt shame and I felt embarrassed, and I felt,
- 7:07Speaker 1: oh my god, am I just not good at this
- 7:09Speaker 1: and you know, looking back, you know, if I could
- 7:13Speaker 1: go and whisper in my ear at that time, I
- 7:16Speaker 1: would say, girl, you're getting ready to lose three days
- 7:19Speaker 1: of your life thinking about this. With all due respect
- 7:22Speaker 1: to her, crazy woman, and this is just a sign
- 7:28Speaker 1: that she's the wrong beta reader for you. This is
- 7:32Speaker 1: just a sign that she probably shouldn't be a beta reader.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Here it is. You got two sane pieces of feedback,
- 7:38Speaker 1: you know, and each of them took their own approach.
- 7:41Speaker 1: One woman was, you know, very just light. This is
- 7:44Speaker 1: what I liked about the story, This is where you
- 7:46Speaker 1: might want to improve. Another one went into more detail,
- 7:49Speaker 1: this is what I liked, and she had a better
- 7:50Speaker 1: understanding of like the romance world, and she gave me
- 7:54Speaker 1: some insight there. This woman didn't do any of that.
- 7:57Speaker 1: She just made me question myself. That was my sign.
- 8:03Speaker 1: And it's an immovable questioning. It feels like, oh my god,
- 8:07Speaker 1: like I can't get past this. That's all it is
- 8:10Speaker 1: wrong energy, wrong person. Move away from them. That's the
- 8:17Speaker 1: cue that you're getting in that moment. So if you've
- 8:21Speaker 1: been in situations like this, I want you to take
- 8:23Speaker 1: this to heart and say, hey, yes, I'm responsible for
- 8:29Speaker 1: how I respond to people. Yes, my inner growth is
- 8:35Speaker 1: a lifelong experience. Yes, spiritual maturity is a part of
- 8:39Speaker 1: my path. But being in the presence of some misaligned
- 8:43Speaker 1: energy is not a spiritual requirement. It's not.
- 8:50Speaker 2: A right of passage. It's not a test that I
- 8:54Speaker 2: need to pass. It's a redirection. It's a boundary, a
- 8:58Speaker 2: message from your internal wisdom system, your nervous system. Even
- 9:04Speaker 2: that's saying this dynamic is not for you. This dynamic
- 9:10Speaker 2: will not expand your soul. You will not get what
- 9:13Speaker 2: you need from this dynamic. It is spiritually eroding. It
- 9:18Speaker 2: is going against your greater truth. It is not making
- 9:23Speaker 2: you better.
- 9:25Speaker 1: And you know, I think, just you know, on a
- 9:31Speaker 1: spiritual side, and I'll speak in this language, but you
- 9:34Speaker 1: can translate it however way you want. I think that
- 9:40Speaker 1: evil will always try to sneak into whatever we're up
- 9:44Speaker 1: to have a way in which you perceive evil. If
- 9:48Speaker 1: the whole goal of lower negative forces is to take
- 9:54Speaker 1: you away from your divine truth, to take you away
- 9:57Speaker 1: from God, to take you away from your sword, to
- 9:59Speaker 1: take make you away from high vibrational feelings, here it
- 10:02Speaker 1: was I was feeling so high vibrational about this work
- 10:05Speaker 1: and doing it, and I get all this high vibrational support.
- 10:09Speaker 1: That's that's you know, I keep using this word saying, right,
- 10:13Speaker 1: like they gave me just good basic wisdom, right that
- 10:18Speaker 1: I could use, and then come this third source. Yeah,
- 10:24Speaker 1: that's where they're going to disrupt that harmony, that connection,
- 10:29Speaker 1: that joy. Right. And so I'm not making necessarily, not
- 10:34Speaker 1: necessarily saying this woman is evil. She probably was, honestly,
- 10:38Speaker 1: because it did get even messier after that, but I'm
- 10:42Speaker 1: not saying she was. But let's just say that that
- 10:44Speaker 1: energy seeped into this experience. I just needed to see
- 10:49Speaker 1: it for what it was. The fact that it was
- 10:51Speaker 1: so contrasting to what I'd been experiencing and the energy
- 10:55Speaker 1: I was holding. That's your cue that something funky has
- 10:59Speaker 1: come in. It not for your highest and greatest good.
- 11:02Speaker 1: It's not a vibrational match, and it wasn't. It was
- 11:05Speaker 1: so left field. And I think because when we encounter
- 11:09Speaker 1: these types of energies, it feels so jarring and it
- 11:12Speaker 1: feels so different than the space that we're in that
- 11:18Speaker 1: we start questioning, well, this must mean something, but it doesn't.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Well it doesn't mean something, means move away from them quickly, right,
- 11:24Speaker 1: It doesn't mean anything about you personally. It's just again
- 11:28Speaker 1: a redirection, an opportunity for you to get clear about
- 11:32Speaker 1: boundaries and setting boundaries. And it's your cue that, oh,
- 11:38Speaker 1: I don't have to listen to everything, and if it's
- 11:42Speaker 1: not supporting my soul, if it's not supporting my well being,
- 11:46Speaker 1: if it's not enhancing my experience, then I move away
- 11:51Speaker 1: from it. Now here's the line. There's one part of
- 11:54Speaker 1: this where you could say, well, oh, she was just
- 11:56Speaker 1: giving you, you know, criticism. It wasn't even that she
- 12:01Speaker 1: really was trying to rewrite the work. It wasn't criticism.
- 12:06Speaker 1: The other women gave me their opinions, both positively and negatively.
- 12:10Speaker 1: It's not that. It's when you're around this type of energy,
- 12:15Speaker 1: all you can experience is low, vibrational, heavy. It makes
- 12:22Speaker 1: you feel like you're upside down. That is your cue
- 12:25Speaker 1: that this is an energy you don't need to be around.
- 12:28Speaker 1: You just need to protect yourself and walk away, step away,
- 12:32Speaker 1: move away from it. Right, So, you're not weak because
- 12:35Speaker 1: you felt rattled. You're not fragile because someone threw you
- 12:39Speaker 1: off center. You're not behind in your healing journey because
- 12:45Speaker 1: you had a human response to chaos, because that's what
- 12:49Speaker 1: it is. It's chaos, it's evil. Right. What you are
- 12:54Speaker 1: is sensitive, what you are is aware, what you are
- 12:57Speaker 1: is honest enough with yourself to feel that, hey, this
- 13:02Speaker 1: feels terrible. If you think about low vibrational energy evil,
- 13:07Speaker 1: I'm going to use that word. You can pick another word.
- 13:10Speaker 1: It feels terrible. So if you're in a situation that
- 13:14Speaker 1: feels just oh so gross and nasty and you can't
- 13:18Speaker 1: see the light anywhere, that's probably your cue that you
- 13:21Speaker 1: just need to move away from that energy. It's not
- 13:23Speaker 1: an energy that needs to be in your life. So
- 13:27Speaker 1: it's not a flaw. It's a gift. It's your inner
- 13:30Speaker 1: warning system, it's your inner wisdom system, it's your intuition,
- 13:34Speaker 1: it's your spirit guides, it's all that is holy within you, saying,
- 13:39Speaker 1: get away from that, right, get away from that. So,
- 13:47Speaker 1: if this episode is speaking to you, if you have
- 13:49Speaker 1: experienced situations like this and it took you on a
- 13:53Speaker 1: tail spend and you wish you had someone that could
- 13:56Speaker 1: have brought you back to center sooner so that you
- 13:59Speaker 1: could see clearly and move towards what is for your good,
- 14:04Speaker 1: so that you could have a real spiritual dialogue that
- 14:07Speaker 1: engages that which is magical and wonderful within you. Then
- 14:11Speaker 1: I would like you to consider my one year Intuitive
- 14:14Speaker 1: Coaching package. This package is designed for spiritually mature souls
- 14:19Speaker 1: who are done with gaslighting themselves, who are done with
- 14:24Speaker 1: apologizing for their sensitivity, who are ready to move into
- 14:29Speaker 1: an empowered relationship with their energy. Together, together we create
- 14:35Speaker 1: a space where you don't just learn how to cope
- 14:38Speaker 1: with energy, because that's essentially what I'm describing to you.
- 14:41Speaker 1: That happens when we encounter these energies. We think we
- 14:44Speaker 1: need to heal more, but really we're trying to tell
- 14:46Speaker 1: ourselves I need to figure out a way to better cope. No,
- 14:50Speaker 1: you don't. You just need to learn to master it
- 14:52Speaker 1: because knowing when to walk away is sacred and trusting
- 14:55Speaker 1: your sensitivity is strength, not weakness. You will develop this
- 15:01Speaker 1: skill and expand in ways you can't even imagine. You
- 15:06Speaker 1: will truly be amazed. In the one year Intuitive Coaching package.
- 15:11Speaker 1: You can learn more and enroll at Intuitive Coaching with
- 15:14Speaker 1: Amy dot com. So let's get back. You don't need
- 15:19Speaker 1: to twist yourself into spiritual notts a spiritual pretzel. You
- 15:25Speaker 1: don't need to do a whole bunch of stuff, get
- 15:30Speaker 1: in your journal, take another course, work on your self esteem.
- 15:39Speaker 1: You just need to accept that this is not a
- 15:42Speaker 1: connection that was ever meant for you, never meant for you. You
- 15:46Speaker 1: don't have to prove your emotional resilience by staying around
- 15:51Speaker 1: it and shrinking and trying harder, praying more, doing more rituals,
- 16:00Speaker 1: carrying your crystals. Now, you just need to get away
- 16:03Speaker 1: from this energy. And you don't need to reprogram yourself
- 16:09Speaker 1: to tolerate what your soul has already told you. You
- 16:13Speaker 1: don't need your soul gets to reject things all the time,
- 16:17Speaker 1: and we need to let it. That's how you know
- 16:21Speaker 1: that something's for your highest and greatest good and something
- 16:24Speaker 1: that's not. That's how you stay on your path towards
- 16:26Speaker 1: your desires and you don't get swept up in these
- 16:31Speaker 1: tidal wave of feelings that come from being around this energy. Again,
- 16:37Speaker 1: going back to my story, I was on the couch
- 16:40Speaker 1: for three days pondering everything that this woman had told me, right,
- 16:46Speaker 1: and also, you know, just dealing with the aggressiveness of
- 16:50Speaker 1: her energy and the abruptness of her energy and what
- 16:52Speaker 1: does that mean, and questioning myself, questioning my work during
- 16:56Speaker 1: this very tender moment when I just created something for
- 16:59Speaker 1: the first time. It was the first time I had
- 17:01Speaker 1: finished a full manuscript, and here it is this energy
- 17:05Speaker 1: shows up again. If I could go back and tell
- 17:09Speaker 1: that version of myself, I'd say, girl, delete every message
- 17:15Speaker 1: from this woman, block her, and focus on moving to
- 17:21Speaker 1: the next step of this process. There is nothing she
- 17:24Speaker 1: said that was valid. And yes it feels emotionally sticky
- 17:29Speaker 1: right now, but that is not a reflection of me,
- 17:32Speaker 1: and it's not a reflection of the work. And this
- 17:37Speaker 1: is just a natural response when you encounter evil or
- 17:41Speaker 1: chaos or someone who is seeking destruction instead of harmony.
- 17:49Speaker 1: So you can choose something better. You can surround yourself
- 17:53Speaker 1: with people and energies that amplify your knowing, that celebrate
- 17:57Speaker 1: your gifts, that honor your depth. You don't have to
- 18:00Speaker 1: work harder to belong. You don't have to change yourself
- 18:07Speaker 1: so that you fit in with these types of energies.
- 18:11Speaker 1: You just have to be willing to walk away when
- 18:14Speaker 1: your spirit says that not that. Nope, Nope, no nope.
- 18:22Speaker 1: So acknowledge that if someone has shown up and it's
- 18:26Speaker 1: causing you to question everything about yourself and a lot
- 18:30Speaker 1: of heavy emotions will come up, Shame, embarrassment, doubt. If
- 18:38Speaker 1: that's all that they are giving you in that moment,
- 18:41Speaker 1: and it could be that one time they give you
- 18:43Speaker 1: something different, But in that moment, if all they're giving you,
- 18:46Speaker 1: that is your cue that it no longer serves you
- 18:49Speaker 1: and you get to move away from it. Nope, not
- 18:52Speaker 1: that one. Nope, Okay, we're done. There's no more reason
- 18:56Speaker 1: to process this. Let me just shut the door on
- 18:58Speaker 1: that and move on. So I hope this is helpful.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Thank you so much for listening. I hope this message
- 19:07Speaker 1: reached someone at the exact right moment that they needed it,
- 19:10Speaker 1: because again, I would have loved to have heard someone
- 19:16Speaker 1: talk about this when I was on that couch. Thank
- 19:20Speaker 1: you one more time for listening to the show. Until
- 19:23Speaker 1: next time, May you walk in your journey with certainty,
- 19:27Speaker 1: with clarity, with good people surrounding you. May you be
- 19:31Speaker 1: a vibrational match to all that is good and all
- 19:34Speaker 1: that is holy. Thank you so much, Thank you so much,
- 19:37Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Take care of yourself. Goodbye,
