0:47Hi, I'm Kris.
0:48When I was younger, I went through trauma that caused me to feel broken and lost.

2:09Thank you for having me.
2:11Yeah, I'm excited that you're here.
2:13So I start all my episodes the same way.
2:15And that is by asking my guests what their origin story is.
2:19So I'd love to hear how you started on this path.
2:22Please share your share your story with us.
2:26Well, , it's always an interesting part, isn't it?
2:29Because, you know, how do you get from being just like a regular person and then turning into somebody who spends their days delving into the esoteric and the energetic and the all the magical things that are around us?
2:46And I think for me, I was pretty lucky.
2:49As a as a child, my grandmother was a hypnotherapist.
2:53So from the age of about eight, I think it was.
2:57She used to take me over what we knew was the Rainbow Bridge for no real reason.
3:03Or at least I didn't think there was any real reason then at that age, , you know, just really for relaxation and for enjoyment, and it help cultivate in me this understanding that our mind is so much more than we may are led to believe.
3:23you know, she took me through, like, while I was at school when I was going through my exams.
3:28And, you know, the stresses that come with that She took me through different n LP techniques to help me expand time so that when I'm revising, , that it would be like I'd been doing work for two hours, but only really working for 45 minutes.
3:43, when I was feeling nervous, she'd take me through this circle of excellence, , where I would stand in this spot and cultivate all of the feelings of confidence or, , calm or whatever it is that I felt that I need in that moment.
3:58And I think something happens when you grow up with that, and you realise that our state is something that we can really take hold of.
4:08I'm not gonna say control, because I don't think that's really true.
4:12, but we can certainly, , merge and manipulate and use to our advantage how special and amazing for you that you grew up with a grandmother like that.
4:27And it almost sounds like when you said Rainbow Bridge.
4:29I'm like, Wow, it's almost like these magical places that you went with Grandma as this little girl.
4:35, so So tell me a little bit more about how you ended up on this path.
4:41Did you just go right into all of the esoteric metaphysical stuff or did you try and get a job in the quote unquote real world first, right?
4:49Kind of wish.
4:50I kind of wish I could say Yeah.
4:51Then I just floated from the railway bridge right here.
4:54But, you know, it's not how it happened, but despite all of that and this refuge that I had with my grandma, I was just like a regular girl living in London, , trying to make her way.
5:05And, you know, I finished school and went to college and went to uni and started to tick all of the boxes that you're meant to tick as a as a woman person growing up and I got the degree.
5:20And then I went and got the job and I found myself somehow working in the motor industry, which, if I don't know about that.
5:28But here, the motor, the motor industry has a a kind of vibe to it.
5:32And it's one of those things that they say once you get into, you can never get out of I did, .
5:39So I went through various jobs, which I absolutely loved and hated, probably in equal measure.
5:46And I found myself in sales, which was very interesting and meant that I could help a lot of people.
5:55And I could talk with a lot of people and communicate with a lot of different kinds of people.
6:02And I was my sales team loved me because whenever there was some training to be had, I used to put my hand up and like me, pick me.
6:11I want to go on the training.
6:12, and it was there.
6:13I started to learn more about n LP and, , you know, like mindset, techniques and rapport and how to build them.
6:23And I'd always known n LP from a therapeutic session through my grandma, and so it was really interesting for me to start to learn it from a sales setting and you know, But despite all of that, I think a lot of the time I felt a bit lost.
6:42I had everything on paper that I should have had.
6:45I had the job, I had the money, I had the car, had the house had the husband to be at that point.
6:51And But what I didn't have was this deep sense of satisfaction.
6:56I kind of had this low level anxiety.
7:00, I was quite disconnected from what I wanted and who I was.
7:04And whilst I made the most of that job, And I remember once saying, a trainer said to me if you didn't sell cars, but you did what you do, you're doing what you're doing.
7:14But you're not allowed to say that you sell cars.
7:15What would you say?
7:16You did?
7:17And I remember saying Help make people's dreams come true.
7:21Hm.
7:23And I thought, Yeah, I can I can deal with that.
7:26but despite all that, you know, I was, I was pretty stressed and and not very satisfied.
7:33And because of that, I started to get massage and and some treatments, and it was during one of those treatments that the lady that I was working with put her hands on top of my head, and I felt this feeling like I'd never felt before.
7:49It was like my head had been filled up with this.
7:53I'm gonna call it peace.
7:55And it was like filling up and up and up.
7:57And then all of a sudden, it was like she'd pulled out everything that was in my head, which was a lot.
8:04There was, you know, I carried a lot in my brain and in my mind, and for that moment I felt this clear, empty stillness.
8:17and it was that that really led me on to this curiosity of energy work.
8:25You know, I relate to your story so much.
8:27, I also was I was working in the tech industry.
8:31Everything was great on paper, making six figures, all the same things and then having panic attacks every night.
8:37And I eventually, like left, which is a scary thing to do to to leave that sense of security that we're told is right, Right?
8:47Right.
8:48It, , take that.
8:50Take that leap of faith, leap of faith and and and and and kind of and kind of follow ahead without really knowing where it's gonna go.
8:57and also that that emptiness and peace that I as before and for anyone I'm sure they recognise that feeling too.
9:07Where it's like, Wow, things really can be just clear and empty.
9:13And it doesn't have to be this constant, this constant train of thought.
9:17So was that woman, , who put her hands on you during the massage?
9:22was that reiki that she was giving you or was it some other energy work, or did you ever find out?
9:27Yeah, it was Reiki.
9:28Like she finished the treatment and I went because I wasn't expecting it.
9:31I'd booked in for it was actually a facial I was having, and we just went to I was like, What was that?
9:37And she went, Oh, it was Reiki.
9:41Yeah, no biggie.
9:41This is just a bit ragged.
9:43And so I asked her like 1000 questions and she said, Oh, why don't you book him for a treatment, which I did, And I remember in that first treatment spending half the time thinking, Oh, I should have just booked a massage because I was just was holding so much tension in my body and the other half of the treatment going Oh, my God, what is this sorcery that is happening?
10:00You know, I could feel feelings in my body and I was really relaxed.
10:05And, , you know, she was picking up on things as well.
10:10And so that started me on this quite regular reiki treatments where I'd still have my massages.
10:16But I'd tag on half an hour Reiki, for example, at the end of a treatment every few weeks, and I started to realise that I was calmer and it took a while.
10:26It wasn't straight away.
10:27It wasn't like, Oh my God, I've had this reiki and now I'm fixed.
10:30It was after a few, you know, a good few months I would say that I realised when I was under more pressure that I wasn't responding in the way that I used to.
10:45And then when she told me that she was moving to Australia and I'm in England and I thought that's a long way to go for a treatment And she said to me, Why don't you learn it?
10:56And I thought, How do you learn baking?
10:58I thought that this was something that I don't know what I thought I thought you were like.
11:04And then this series of synchronistic events happened within weeks.
11:11I was learning Reiki on my one day off that I had in six.
11:15I I would have, like, one weekend off in six weeks or something like that.
11:19I happened to have this weekend off, and it happened to be reiki training.
11:22So I happened to do it, and then it was two weeks after that.
11:25I quit my well, two weeks after that, I was like, I'm leaving.
11:29And I found a job literally the week after that.
11:33And then I left.
11:34It was it ended up being a couple of months after, and that was when I I started another job, which wasn't ideal, but I was in training.
11:44I was kind of in that, it was a real bridge between what I wanted to do, which at that point I knew was to two things.
11:53One thing was to help people.
11:55I knew that I knew even when I was in sales, that I'd really like to get into training.
12:00When I'd go on all these training courses, I'd be like, I'd love to do that and just train the people and and, you know, get into all the psychology and all that mind stuff.
12:09, but also, I had this real thing that I wanted to I remember saying to my boss as I was as I handed in my notice and he said, Well, what is it that you want to do?
12:19And I said, I wanna work with who I want when I want and how I want.
12:24And he laughed in my face and I was like, he was like, That will never happen.
12:27Because if you're working for yourself, you'll be chasing contracts up and down the country and all of this stuff.
12:33, and now I work for who I with who I want, when I want and how I want so and he's still probably in the same place, right?
12:42He's still there.
12:43He's still there.
12:44I go in there sometimes he's still there.
12:47So I know you mentioned the psychology a little bit with n LP.
12:51And when we spoke earlier, you were telling me, Like to back everything else up in science.
12:55So do you like how?
12:57How does science back up all of this stuff?
13:00All the mindset stuff, all the reiki stuff.
13:02Like, how do you How do you interweave those two?
13:06Well, I've always been very, quite cynical.
13:10I was always like, Well, you need to This is gonna work.
13:13I need you to prove it to me.
13:15, and it was actually Reiki that when I first felt it coursed through my body and I thought, Well, I don't know.
13:21I can't understand how this works.
13:24And maybe it's the placebo effect.
13:26Maybe it's that I didn't care.
13:28I was like, This is working.
13:29And I know it's working.
13:30I knew all about I said, I know all about the placebo effect.
13:33I went to find out a lot about it, and that led me into this.
13:36Well, hold on a minute.
13:37If there is this thing called the placebo effect, actually, doesn't that tell us that our mind can help us manage pain and that we can be expecting to take a pill and make it make us feel better or make us heal?
13:53And even if it's a sugar pill, it still does that then that, for me is even more intriguing than dismissing it as just the placebo.
14:03Absolutely.
14:04It's it's it's proof that we can heal ourselves, right?
14:08And then there's the nocebo effect, which is the opposite, which is proof that we could make ourselves sick.
14:15Yeah.
14:15No, it's it's amazing how powerful we really are.
14:19Right?
14:20And you know my grandma who was doing all these things.
14:23So she was a hypnotherapist, and she did, , thought field therapy, which we now know as e f T e f t kind of evolved from thought field therapy.
14:32This was, you know, back in the nineties, This was this was some time ago, and and she was an n LP, I think master practitioner, they called them at the time, and but how she came about, it was actually quite it.
14:46It was definitely from the therapeutic set, , viewpoint.
14:51But it wasn't from an energetic viewpoint, even the tapping.
14:55It was all And it was always presented to me.
14:57I think my grandma, you know, I look back now and think Well, she's She was quite a Trailblazer, really, To be doing what she did at that time.
15:04I think the way that she presented her work was through science and through proof and through the psychology and the psychotherapeutic aspect.
15:15So I had that.
15:16And then I'd had this n LP training very much through a business setting.
15:21And it was all around that and, you know, creating relationships and all of this, , which didn't talk at all about energetics.
15:30But then I start learning after reiki, I started to learn My first thing was about the law of attraction and the nature of reality.
15:38I went deep.
15:39I'm like, Well, I read these these books that spoke about how does this exist until you look at it and all of this stuff and actually, the more I was reading it, the more I was thinking.
15:52Well, n LP and our language and our expectations absolutely explains all of this in a very fundamental level.
16:05And that actually started to lead me down a bit of a route of the quantum physics and the metaphysics, and I would not say I'm an expert in it, but I'm very interested.
16:19And you just look at the nature of reality and the nature of, say, even the the waves of the particles and how they respond to how a scientist, for example, expects something to happen, and that can change the outcome of what is actually happening.
16:36I look at things like that.
16:37And I think, Well, maybe we do create our reality then.
16:42And if we do create our reality in in such a degree that a particle isn't solid and it doesn't come into form until we look at it and that's that's the basis of what quantum physics tells us.
16:57Then maybe our thoughts do create our world, and maybe we can understand how we can heal or make sick our body.
17:09Maybe we can magnetise to us all of these things that we're told that we can magnetise.
17:16Maybe we can connect him with a higher force of healing or guidance or angelic.
17:26to bring through and to change the frequency of what we're looking at.
17:31And maybe we can tune into a person or into a field to help us understand where they've been in their past and look at the trajectory of where they're going.
17:45Yeah, you and I must have read all the same books because I I'm like, Yes, yes, yes, while you're talking like I just I love geeing out about this kind of stuff, too.
17:55And it's interesting that you said n LP ties into all of it.
17:58And I was at first I was like, huh, that's interesting.
18:00But it makes sense because the language we use is so important, whether we're thinking or writing or speaking.
18:06You know, our our language comes from our thoughts, which comes from our belief systems, which creates our emotions.
18:12Which puts us on that frequency.
18:14Right.
18:15So you said something at the end that was super fascinating to me about Maybe you can tap into this field and around a person and and figure out like where they've been and what they've gone through so that you can help them heal.
18:29So talk to me more about that Well, I began to.
18:34Eventually.
18:35After a while, I began to sit in a circle and in circle.
18:40We were doing a lot of mediumship.
18:43So this is bringing through, , people who have past and psychic work.
18:48And so we were really focused on on doing that in a like reading session and I I loved all of that, but I started to question about Well, hold on a minute.
19:03If I can use my cards or my psychic skills to predict the future, then how does that fit in with the law of Attraction, for example, which tells me, well, I can create my future.
19:14So how can I predict my future and create my future?
19:17They seem to be, They don't seem to go well together.
19:22And, you know, and and I and I, I still believe that I think we can predict the future based on where we are and who we've been, and and the tendencies and the way we see the world and the language that we use and what we expect.
19:38That is what creates our future for me.
19:42I began to understand that this future isn't set in stone, but it is a series of possibilities that, based on what I'm doing, and what I'm doing is based on who I was.
19:52Really, I can then start to anchor in these different timelines.
19:58So that's where that curiosity started.
20:01And then back in 2016, I think it was I was introduced to the Akashic records and that that changed everything for me because it was almost like all of these theories that I had just fell into place.
20:22They all just made sense.
20:24Based on this field that holds everything that us as a soul have ever done known, been had and all of the possibilities that could happen.
20:35But not just that.
20:36Not just the record, the individual of me and who I was.
20:40But also the field in which it sits in that then contains everything that ever was been has and will be.
20:49So talk to me more about the akashic records.
20:51And I know you just gave a definition.
20:53But for listeners who have no idea what the akashic records are, How do you How do you access them?
21:01I guess like you just said it's a record of everything that has been will be, you know, for every soul, for every everything that has ever existed.
21:11So if this is a new idea to people, how do we How do we break that down a little bit and explain it?
21:19So some people know the records as the book of Life, and they've spoken about that in many different spiritual texts and philosophies and religions.
21:29, for me, it's more than that.
21:30It's this realm.
21:31It's this frequency, if you like, where everything is contained.
21:38, now, if you think about, like, really the term a cash means space or ether, right?
21:47And if you imagine, if we even look at things on a quantum level, most things are space like, was it something like 3% of the actual world is actual matter, right?
21:59And so everything else in between is something, and it contains something.
22:03It's not empty.
22:04So if I said you asked me, Well, how do I access it?
22:07And I would I would.
22:10contemplate.
22:11Maybe we are all accessing it all the time because if I said to you, think about your last holiday.
22:20think about where you were and what you did and what you ate or what you experience in that holiday as you do that and memory starts to come up.
22:29But that memory doesn't live in your brain like we know that there's not a file that's like Holiday 2022 right?
22:37It doesn't that doesn't exist in there.
22:39It comes from somewhere, and as that appears, where are we drawing that information from?
22:47it's it's coming from somewhere.
22:49Science tells us that our brain starts firing off in all these different frequencies.
22:54But we can actually take that memory and start to draw, , visions from it.
23:01We can start to hear it.
23:02We can even maybe even start to taste the salt in the air of the sea or smell the the hand soap right that they had in that hotel that we used every day.
23:13, and so all of these things are coming and happening.
23:15And where is that information coming from?
23:19Also, when we are.
23:21Who was it that said the answer to the problem doesn't exist at the frequency of the problem?
23:28Was it like Einstein?
23:29I think.
23:30Yeah.
23:31And so we have a problem and we're putting it out there somewhere.
23:36And then all of a sudden we're doing something else, like what happened?
23:40Was it with him that was sitting on the bus?
23:41And then this theory of relativity just dropped into his head.
23:44Right?
23:45Things like that happen, like all the time.
23:47You're just doing something.
23:48And suddenly this inspiration just comes seemingly out of nowhere.
23:52When you're doing something completely different and you think, well, where does that come from?
23:56That's not like it's come from somewhere.
23:59So where and on a fundamental level from my understanding it comes from this field that is the, , cache, which is the ether, which is the space.
24:13now, This space contains everything, right?
24:18So, technically, I could go in there and be like, Well, I want to know the answer to name your question because it's all in there.
24:28I want to know the bank account details of Elon Musk.
24:32He won't notice if a spare million dollars has gone with it.
24:36For example, , it doesn't really work like that, because then we have our individual records.
24:41And so these are the records of your soul.
24:43And just like you might have a diary of all of the things that you've thought of today and all of the things that you felt and all of the actions and and the incidents that you've done, , if you had that diary, you'd probably keep it under lock and key your phone.
24:59You'd probably have your fingerprint locking it right.
25:04And so our records are held and protected, if you like, so that people can't just jump in and out of them because they're yours, and you know, it could be quite dangerous, right?
25:18If people just jump in and out of what other people are doing and into people's space and into people's deepest, darkest memories.
25:26And so this realm is whilst it's everywhere.
25:32it resonates at a particular frequency which belongs, if you like or is is matched, maybe a better word to you and the individual that holds it.
25:44I have so much to say about all of that.
25:46And I I love everything you just shared And, you know, like I said, we're so on the same page and we've read all the same things and studied all the same things.
25:54But it's always still so interesting to hear someone else explain it back to you from their unique perspective.
26:00Because as you're talking, I'm like, Yeah, Oh, my gosh, yes, that that makes sense.
26:05And, you know, I was thinking about, like, this flow state that we tap into right where When you're like, where does this come from?
26:10Like Like I feel like I channelled my book right.
26:13I wrote the thing in like, a month, and it just, like, poured into me and I'm tapping into that field.
26:18So I guess, And and also I think this I was also thinking about past life regression hypnosis like That's why things like that work, because all of that information is stored on that frequency.
26:31That is your soul.
26:32Like you were saying, right?
26:33It's, it's Bruce Lifton talks about that where he's like, you know, like you have a channel, a frequency and let's say you're playing it through a TV and you're alive right now and then your your you pass over to the other side like that frequency doesn't go away.
26:49It's just the TV guide, right?
26:51But then if you get a new TV, you can still tap into that same channel.
26:54It's like your frequency never stops.
26:57And I love that explanation, too.
27:00So a lot of what you were describing is how I describe the quantum field right?
27:06How we can manifest using the quantum field.
27:08And it's this, this space, this ether.
27:11So is that the same as the akashic Records?
27:14Are they one and the same or do you see them as two different things?
27:18I think that's a really great question, because I think in many ways they're the same.
27:23But I think there is a fundamental difference in that.
27:28The quantum field is literally a field of everything, as the akashic record is literally a field of everything.
27:35However, the akashic records are held by these.
27:39If you like beings, I don't know what you want to call them, but they're held right.
27:42They're they're protected.
27:44And the field itself is, , held on the frequency of love, non judgement, compa.
27:53It's the It's the frequency of soul, right and all of the things that, like the Yeah.
28:00No, , non judgement.
28:02Compassion, empathy, understanding, acceptance.
28:06It's all of this stuff that when you go and access your records for the records of your client, you're accessing this field from that perspective.
28:19So I can't with the quantum field.
28:21Technically, I could go in.
28:23And if my vibration is right and correct and all of this stuff, I can literally go and fish anything out of it.
28:30If I have that skill with the akashic records, I could be the most skilled akashic record reader in the whole wide world.
28:37But if my intention isn't of love and healing and wisdom and openness, I won't be able to access anything.
28:47So do you need permission from these beings to be able to access it?
28:52Or is it more that they just can read your energy?
28:55And that's kind of like the lock in the key.
28:57Yeah, I think it's It's I suppose it depends how you look at that.
29:01, we need Do we need their permission?
29:05Yes, but it comes from your permission, so I I could read your records only if you were like Melissa.
29:18Can you read my records, please?
29:20Let's do this.
29:21Let's open up.
29:22And then when we go in there, there's these beings who are holding the records for you.
29:26Now you can imagine how much stuff is in that space.
29:31Like literally if you even think about how much is in there.
29:33Just from the last 24 hours, every single thought, every single emotion that you had, every TV programme, every Facebook post that you've read, every word that you've spoken, every emotion that sits under it, and all of the things that everything just in 24 hours is a lot of stuff.
29:51Now, if we were going in there, what am I gonna find out?
29:56Well, this is where this permission of frequency comes in.
30:00So I wanna go in there really with this healing intention.
30:04It's like, Well, I wanna find out how I You know what my path is or I want to find out why I always find that I have this pattern that recurs over and over again.
30:16and I go in there with that and that openness and that curiosity and that, Well, I want to do this because I want to show up better.
30:26Be more of me, shine more of my light, create that positive impact in the world.
30:31Then chances are I'll receive the information that helps me understand that.
30:37Yeah, and I was just I was literally going to ask you, Like, when you're reading someone's records, what are you often looking for?
30:43But that makes sense, right?
30:44Because it sounds like the future is in there as well, Not just the past, right?
30:47If you're looking for someone's soul, path or purpose, , so how do you personally tap into them?
30:55Do you have to go into meditation?
30:57Do you like what's what's your process when I'm working with another?
31:02If I'm working on a 1 to 1 setting, I take us both through a meditation.
31:07So I'm guiding you in a meditation, , to protect the energy field to get you relaxed and open because your frequency, you know, you need to feel safe.
31:16First of all, because if you were like, hi then nothing's gonna happen.
31:20, so we start with that, and we we go through a really quite simple meditation.
31:25, And then we meet one of your guardians, , and from there we get let in.
31:33Now, I always ask for a healing intention.
31:37I think it's all whilst we don't necessarily need something specific.
31:42And I do normally what happens?
31:43People go.
31:44So what?
31:45What are you working on?
31:45And they're like, Well, I want to know about my path and my purpose.
31:50, and I'd also quite like to know why I don't have, you know why I've hit this ceiling of my income and I wanna know if the love of my life is gonna come in like they they kind of just throw that one in at the end.
32:02, which is, you know, which is fine.
32:05And quite often the information that comes seems to work on all of these different levels.
32:11but I find that the more spec specific we can be about what it is that we are wanting to uncover.
32:22Well, then, the more resonance we seem to have with the answer because there's a lot in there and sometimes you know what?
32:33Sometimes it's not the most dramatic thing that's ever happened to you in a lifetime.
32:37That's actually the thing that's influencing what it is that you want to know about now.
32:44But if you know well, I'm coming in there because I've got this money block when it comes to my healing work, for example, then when we go in based on what you're open to and what you're available to and what's not gonna further scar you, you know, if you were gonna go in there and you're gonna find out that you know, something really awful and traumatic happened and I start presenting that to you and you're like, Oh, my God, you know, And you and you, you go into that fear or that panic or that guilt.
33:15Then that's not going to be very helpful.
33:16So we just wouldn't get that information.
33:18The information just wouldn't come in, or at least not in that way.
33:22We it this happens every time.
33:25It's like this.
33:26The incident that may be led to the next to the next to the next incident comes in, , or maybe even one further down the line, which then gives us an understanding of OK, now I can see why.
33:42Maybe I drew that conclusion about the world, and now maybe I can understand that I don't need that conclusion because it's not true.
33:52I thought it was true, but it's not.
33:55And even in that we often do ceremony healing, you know, some form of ritual in there.
34:02But sometimes it's even just that.
34:03Oh, OK.
34:04I realised that once upon a time I got thrown off the boat.
34:07Now I know why I'm scared of sailing.
34:10I don't need to be scared of sailing anymore, and it can be that clean.
34:15it.
34:15It reminds me of past life regression hypnosis again, where it's like your guides are only going to show you what you need to see relevant to this right.
34:25It's not going to be something that's going to traumatise you like you said.
34:28It's not going to be more information than you need that's going to confuse you.
34:33It's going to be like, here's that direct line and now you can kind of figure it out from there.
34:42Wow.
34:42OK, so it makes me want to get an akashic Records reading.
34:48That's amazing.
34:49So have you seen a lot of success with your with clients that come to you like, What is there?
34:54Are there any stories you can share?
34:57there's so many and the the The amazing thing about the records is that it can work in so many different levels and ways.
35:06And you know, a lot of the people that I've seen, especially early on.
35:11You know, when I first started really doing this, I you know, we we keep in touch on Facebook or whatever, and I've just seen some things like I had this one client who went through relationship after relationship after relationship, and she always just got the same kind of guy who wasn't the best kind of match for her.
35:33She's let's say that and this was going on, you know she was.
35:40push to just turning 30 at the time.
35:43, we did some work and it was really interesting what came up.
35:46It wasn't like, Oh, you were X y z with a man.
35:49There was all these kind of subtext stuff going on, and we did some clearing and and healing with that.
35:55And we kept in touch over Facebook and I saw it.
35:59It was about nine months later I saw that she was in this relationship and then, you know, a year after that, I could see she's still in this relationship.
36:10And so it continues.
36:12So there's so many incidents where I just see from one thing how you know, I I work with a lot of healers and quite often the story is, you know, they don't want to be seen.
36:23They don't wanna show up.
36:25They, you know, can't get clear on their message and all of this stuff, and then suddenly you just see their healing business just skyrocket and Maeve.
36:35That's so amazing.
36:36It it really can change so much.
36:41You know, I've seen people whose channelling abilities have gone for a while, and then they don't do it.
36:46And then they're like, Oh, yeah, I'm I'm leading this no channelling course, And I'm like, how are you?
36:51And and it's not that I think Oh, well, this is all because of my reading and and our session together, there's things like I could I I could do like the best job in the world.
37:00But if you're not gonna do the work afterwards, nothing's gonna happen because these are your records.
37:05And this is your life.
37:06, but I see it over and over and over again.
37:09How this 1% of a mindset set shift or an energetic shift starts to propel people into a complete other direction, which for me, is more important in many ways than those kind of big one eighties.
37:28You know, you really see that massive like, Oh my God, like I've changed tomorrow, which does also happen.
37:34I love that because, well, first of all, it's it's information that they're getting right.
37:38It's what they decide to do with it, how they decide to apply it.
37:42And that choice we all have free will, right?
37:44That choice is up to them.
37:46Like as a healer.
37:47You can't force someone to change or heal, right.
37:50You can just guide them and show them the information.
37:52And I love that idea about a 1% shift because it feels so small and almost insignificant in the moment that it's happening.
38:00But then, if you think about like how that angle gets wider and wider and wider, and those paths go in different directions and and eventually it does become that complete life overhaul.
38:11But it starts with just that, that just that little spark.
38:15And and that's how most change happens.
38:18And I talk about that a lot in my book, too, like change your mind and change your reality like it's really just a mindset change, because we have all these beliefs and opinions of others kind of piled on top of us or beliefs and opinions that we've cultivated at a time that maybe kept us safe, right?
38:36You're you're falling off the sailboat example right?
38:39But that's not going to serve you for the rest of your life.
38:41So if you can help someone make that tiny shift, it can completely change the trajectory of their life.
38:47Right?
38:48And the And the thing is, is this is this realm and this field is becoming more and more available to us, and I think that, as it does become and and and I think that's because our consciousness is rising, you know, even 1015 years ago, we there weren't there weren't this many conversations about this kind of topic happening.
39:09And I think a lot more people are coming into this awareness of vibration and altruism and and creating positive impact and not working alone, but bringing taking responsibility.
39:25And as all of these things pile in, this realm is going OK, like you're ready.
39:32Let's work together because your soul's path isn't just a set of traumas and misunderstandings that had happened.
39:42It's not just like, well, this is all the crap that's ever happened to me, and I'm gonna serve it up as a victim.
39:48This is like, Well, this is all the stuff that happened.
39:50And look at what you, , deciphered from that.
39:54And naturally, look at also the strengths that you cultivated from having that and the patterns that you had to, , get really good at in order to survive and maybe even thrive through that.
40:06Also, look at all of these incidents that happened where you were learning.
40:11I mean, you were growing and where you helped other people and where you did create that positive impact and where you learn a skill or a theory or, you know, you you gave that whole life to God, for example.
40:24And that's there in your history, in your past, in your soul.
40:28And it's and then you wonder why you get into this life and you and what lights you up Is this kind of conversation or what lights you up?
40:36Is this like, Yes, it's in my power to heal.
40:40Or maybe you've been training for it for lifetimes and we can go into this realm and it's like, Oh, yeah, OK, well, maybe I don't I'm not the impostor That's only been doing this for five years, and they've been doing it for 50 so I should listen to them and no one should listen to me.
40:55Maybe it's like, Well, I've been doing it for five lifetimes plus five years.
41:00I love everything you just said and I wish I could just, like, underline it and highlight it.
41:05, so listeners just like rewind and just listen to that again because it's so important.
41:10And this is something I talk about a lot, too.
41:12Is people get so sucked into victim mode.
41:15But there is so much more going on.
41:17Life is happening for you, not to you, right?
41:20Like everything that you encounter, whether it's someone being mean to you or, you know, this corrupt government that you might think or whatever is going on is or this impostor syndrome feeling It's all the universe orchestrating around you, moving around you based on you know what you're manifesting and what you're creating to to help propel you to the next level right or to help, to help bring into existence what you're manifesting, right?
41:51Like you were talking about quantum timelines earlier and quantum jumping right?
41:54It's helping put you on that timeline based on what you've done in the past, what you're doing now, like your habits, your thoughts, your beliefs, your emotions and and I love I.
42:04So I always like to use the metaphor of the film strip to talk about exactly what you just talked about with, You know, we think we have this story that's just like our little life here.
42:14Like, OK, I've been on this planet for 38 years like this is my story.
42:18But like, if you think about a film, strip how it's it's like individual films, but it's all connected like we're just looking at one little piece of film, right?
42:26But there's like a whole other backstory that's lifetimes and Lifetime and lifetime, your entire soul existence that led up to this moment that you don't even you.
42:37You can't even conceive unless you, you know, get these past life regressions or these akashic readings or whatever.
42:43But still, there's so much information you can't even perceive, like what led to this moment and and your personality now and the things that you're passionate about, your path and all these things, like I it's I know I'm just kind of repeating what you said, but it just got me so excited because I think it's so important for people to understand, right, You know what your soul is always giving you these little clues.
43:06Do you have to go into the akashic records, have a past life reading or go in, You know, whatever it is, , go and lucid dream and find it out.
43:15No, it helps because of all the things that we've spoken about.
43:19But your soul is always giving you little clues.
43:23Like when I was there selling cars and I was feeling that low level anxiety.
43:28You know what that was?
43:29That was a clue from my soul that I wasn't doing the thing that I was born to do because if I was super happy, if I was like, Yeah, it's amazing.
43:37It's the best thing ever I would never have left.
43:40And I never definitely won't be doing this.
43:42Now I'd have carried on and you know, these things that really light you up Those little quirks that I think quite often, especially as teenage girls we're told to hide and tone down they If if we actually truly listen to them and learn to dial up those inner callings and the you know, the things that are driving us and pulling us and moving us, then we really can start to understand.
44:12OK, Maybe I'm here for a reason, and maybe that reason is more than where I am.
44:20doing the work, like working in the akashic records, , maybe accelerates that or gives you another perspective of of that, Maybe that's what it is.
44:31But the clues, the clues are always there.
44:35Yeah, and I think that it's it's about learning to tune in and listen right, because you always have guides also, right your higher self.
44:44Your guides, like all of these things, are on the other side helping you.
44:49But you have to listen.
44:51You have to tune in like you have to quiet your mind.
44:54And I think that's why going to someone who does this for a living is so helpful because they help get you into that state.
45:02And they teach you how to do that so that hopefully you can then go on and do this on your own right?
45:08Is the hopeful idea, right?
45:11And, you know, sometimes it's even.
45:13This might blow your mind.
45:14So we we spoke a little bit about the stories and the victim and the you know, all of this stuff.
45:20If we looked at this purely from an akashic point of view, right?
45:24Remember what it said?
45:25It contains everything.
45:26It's a field of everything that's ever happened, but also it's a feeling it's a field of everything that's happening in this moment.
45:33Now the field doesn't judge.
45:34There's there's no like, Oh, this is good.
45:36This is bad it's not, you know, like white light dots and dark dots, right?
45:40It's just this is what's happening.
45:43, and also it doesn't know the difference between what you're imagining and what's really happening.
45:48The only way it knows the difference is the is the depth, right?
45:53If I'm you know, if I'm just seeing something, there's no depth to it.
45:57It's like a line in my book.
45:58If I'm really experiencing and there's action and there's emotions and there's connections and all this stuff, then I'm writing a whole page or a chapter, so that's the only thing.
46:07But if I understand that, but in every single moment of every single day I am writing my akashic records.
46:15And if I'm choosing to spend my whole life telling everybody, Oh, well, I was a victim to this, and this happened, and I and I can't get past that story.
46:28But even that story may have happened to me a year ago, five years ago, 10 years ago, five lifetimes ago.
46:36Every time I'm I bring it in the now and relive it and tell my friend and then the other friend and then the this and then the that and then myself.
46:46I'm rewriting it and rewriting it and rewriting it so it becomes more of a part of my story.
46:52Now don't get me wrong.
46:53I'm not saying just ignore it, bat it away because then it's still in there and it's still driving you.
47:00But if I can understand Well, what What am I putting in my records now?
47:04Am I gonna take this story that happened and go?
47:07Ok, well, here's my story.
47:10This is what happened.
47:12And look at now, the resilience that I have or look at then.
47:17Well, this is really helping me understand unconditional love, Or this is really giving me this tool to see things from a different perspective or to practise forgiveness or whatever it is that there's there's all usually there's a growth opportunity somewhere that I start to rewrite this text.
47:36This is the n LP stuff really coming back in.
47:39How am I choosing to talk to myself about it?
47:42Am I gonna keep on, , presenting myself as a victim?
47:48And so therefore, that energy is where I am?
47:50Or am I gonna be like, Well, I survived this.
47:54And now my duty is to evolve and to evolve and to thrive.
47:58How am I gonna do that?
48:00The answer is all in there somewhere.
48:03But the real potency happens now in the moment.
48:06What am I choosing to do to start to write and score that new record?
48:11To do that 1% adjustment to start to create this new trajectory.
48:16I've heard of this happening with, , like from a biological standpoint, right where you recreate something.
48:24If if you have a trauma and you try to relive it or you relive that story, you're creating the same chemistry in your body, right?
48:30The same adrenaline gets released, the same cortisol gets released.
48:34But I've never thought about it from this perspective of the Akashic Records, where you are literally the story writer of your own story.
48:42So you are responsible for, you know, the next page of the story, the next chapter of this story, how this story is gonna end, right, and you're literally writing it as you go and you know, you you can live the same.
48:59Let's say you live 20 more years.
49:01You can live the same year 20 more times because you're stuck in this infinite loop and nothing's changing.
49:06You have the same thoughts, the same emotions, the same actions, the same habits and and That's just how your story goes.
49:13Or you can take response ability for your story.
49:16You can, you can say, like, How did this make me grow?
49:19How did this make me level up?
49:20How did this make me change my perspective?
49:23And you can literally change the trajectory of your story right?
49:28And it's not just the situations and the circumstances and the events that are in your life with thinking about it.
49:34In this akashic Records point of view, it's your thoughts and your emotions.
49:38So it's like you are literally responsible, just you.
49:42You are solely responsible for how your story goes from here on out.
49:46So you know, just thinking about that.
49:49Like, how do you want this to go right?
49:53You you can you can get stuck in that loop and that victim mode, or you can really, like, literally take the pen right, I would say, like you take the driver's wheel, but like you could take the pen and and become the hero of your own story, right?
50:09You can triumph.
50:10You can thrive.
50:11You can level up and expand your consciousness and grow and expand, and it's all up to you it is.
50:18It's all up to you.
50:19I'm gonna give this caveat, however, that when something's happened to us, and even if we can, we can philosophise what happened for us and all of this when something's happened to us and it's not great.
50:32then the nature of us is that we do keep on Yeah, And you know, like, PTSD is a real thing and and, you know, trauma response is a real thing.
50:41And this, you know, dysregulation and a real thing.
50:44All of these things are real things.
50:46And this definitely isn't like, oh, my God, I'm thinking about it again.
50:50And now I'm therefore doing this for me.
50:54What?
50:55What are the perspective?
50:56Shifts I had through working in the records and seeing you know, so many different past lives from this soul's point of view is you go back and you realise, OK, well, something happened to me and I took home this perception of the world because of what happened, and you and you start to see it or understand it from this different perspective of Oh, OK, maybe I allowed this to happen to me because I was looking for unconditional love, for example, , but actually, what happened there is I realised this thing.
51:32And then I drew the conclusion that all authority figures are greedy, for example, and you, as you start to see things from this different point of view that when things are happening in your life now, I don't know there's this.
51:49It's almost like this other voice comes in.
51:51It's like, OK, there's learning and there's growth from here.
51:54Now if you're in that pos position where well, actually, these intrusive thoughts come in a lot.
52:00Yeah, and, well, I can't help it, Melissa, because all of these things happened and they were traumatic.
52:05But then you do the work because what's happening in that moment is there's this energy bubble.
52:10If you like this huge, massive akashic book that's sitting in there and it's trying to get your attention, and every time we bat it down, we're kind of saying, Oh, no, that's not important or no, I'll get back to you later.
52:22That's kind of what we're saying.
52:23I'll get back to you later, and it's like, OK, well, I'll, I'll show up later again, then.
52:27Thank you.
52:28What if we can take that book and kind of open it and go OK and start to dismantle the energetics that are sitting around it.
52:35The shame and the guilt and the fear and the anger and all of these conclusions that we've drawn from that point we start to dismantle the energetics not necessarily what happened, but the the the the emotions that are surrounding that and that can be through the records.
52:50But that can be through counselling that can be through E f T.
52:53That can be through somatic movement that can be through like, you know, there's so many e MD r There's so many different things that we can do and work with to get there.
53:04But then that becomes as we start to do that I'm bringing that and I'm bringing healing to that.
53:09You're writing that in your record.
53:11I'm empowering myself.
53:12I'm strong enough to know I'm important enough to know that this doesn't have to create my future.
53:19This can just be a a an incident.
53:21What happened?
53:22, and that is more powerful than I think.
53:25We give credit to just that healing and tension I'm willing to grow.
53:30I'm willing to see myself.
53:31I'm willing to accept myself.
53:33I'm willing to thrive.
53:34We write that and things start to move and grow and change.
53:38I love that point, and I'm really glad that you made it because it's it's so important to take steps in your own healing.
53:46And so many people don't do that.
53:48You know, so many people stay in jobs that they're unhappy with because they have a fear of losing that security right which you and I can both relate to.
53:57They stay in relationships that are subpar because they don't want to be alone or they don't think they're worthy enough and and so on and so on and so on, Right?
54:04They don't take care of their health the way they should or they don't know how to.
54:08So just taking that step towards your own healing and your own personal development and your own personal growth is huge.
54:17And and, you know, I talk a lot on the show.
54:20And in my book about releasing repressed emotions, I'm totally with you there, but yeah, no, I think I think that's a really important point.
54:26I'm glad you brought it up and I think it's a It's a great way to just wrap it up today because I can't believe we're already at an hour.
54:34, this went by so fast.
