Hello, you've reached the storied human podcast hosted by me Lynne Thompson. Each week I share a story either an interview with someone fascinating, or a short solo from me. I love your stories, and I learn so much from them.
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:27.780
Hopefully you will too. So welcome. If you are new here, I'm so happy to have you. If you are a returning listener, many thanks. So here it is the next episode of the storied human.
00:00:51.899 --> 00:02:14.520
Hello, and welcome to the storied human. I'm Lynne Thompson. And today I'm super, super lucky to have my guest on a Hendricks, who I found on a really cool Facebook group, a bunch of podcasters trying to find their way. And I'm so intrigued by her work on a Hendricks believes that when we invest in ourselves, the world benefits and I certainly agree with that. She is a divine luminary whose work as an intuitive channel, teacher, spiritual guide and podcaster dedicates herself to reintroducing the world, to its spirituality through the Akashic records. And we're going to talk a little bit more about that spiritual guidance, counseling, coaching and workshops and courses designed to empower individuals to take the reigns and transform their lives. Ana is also the host of the soul driven podcast, a weekly podcast that explores the Interact intersection of living a soulful and spiritual life in a driven and ambitious world. And I always want to hear more about that, because there is such a contrast between our world and how we want to live. So join her for practical guidance, truthful discussions and interviews with people who are successfully living a soul driven life. I love that that's your emphasis.
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:37.139
I love that you've come to that place where you want to talk to people who understand what it's like to live a life that's driven by something more spiritual than just, you know, the earthly ambitions. So tell me, how did you get here? That's such an intro. You're in such an interesting place. You do such interesting work? How did you start? Like, how did you? What's your journey?
00:02:37.800 --> 00:03:04.949
Sure. So as we kind of spoke about a little bit before we started recording, I come from a family of entrepreneurs, it's what I grew up in. And I consider myself to be a very spiritual person, and also a very practical person, part of why my podcast is called Soul driven, because I'm like, equal parts soul and equal parts driven, I'm super practical down to earth. And yet, I've always been very spiritually connected.
00:03:05.009 --> 00:04:38.189
I was born into this lifetime, knowing God, and we've always had a personal relationship. And so that has always, you know, really infused everything that I've done. But because I grew up in small businesses around entrepreneurs, the way that I viewed life was work, you know, and so everything was about work and about achieving and about, you know, getting that checkmark and doing those things and making that money and, and all sorts of things. And I always really struggled working for other people, I have a very strong personality. And I don't take orders, well, I kind of do my own thing. And when you grow up with entrepreneurs, you know, all of my siblings, we're all entrepreneurs. It's just what you kind of, you know, I heard someone say, once that entrepreneurs are entrepreneurs, because they wake up in the morning, and they can't be anything else. And that's just really the truth. Um, that to be true. Yes, absolutely. You know, I look at people who are like, have their nine to five, and they're building their side hustle. And I'm like, That's awesome. Do that if you can, because I was just kind of baptized into getting thrown off the deep end in my 30s. But my my background primarily is in marketing, and I was the CEO of a marketing agency for about 10 years. I built multiple businesses in that time, I helped people build multiple businesses, and right towards the end of 2018, I ended up shutting down a business that it wasn't a retail business, something I'd never done before.
00:04:38.519 --> 00:05:00.000
And what was really unique about this business is that I'd found a part of my purpose in the midst of it, and I had been searching for my purpose my entire life. It was always the prayer I offered up like God, what is my purpose? Tell me my purpose. Show me what it is I'm supposed to be doing. But this business flat out wasn't viable.
00:04:55.709 --> 00:06:05.639
We couldn't scale it. We couldn't grow it. And it, quite frankly, were just very ahead of our time. And so I had to walk away from it. And it broke my heart in a way that, that it just, I mean, I've never gone through so much pain before. And that happened right at the end of 2018. And then I decided to join a group of friends who are doing a 90 day no drinking challenge. I wasn't an alcoholic, but I definitely had an unhealthy relationship with alcohol. I was quite the party girl growing up. And, and this 90 days, combined with the amount of heartbreak that I was going through, the sobriety just absolutely ripped the doors off of the hinges in regards to my spiritual life. I mean, within 30 days, I was questioning everything, a lot of my ideals, the way that I viewed the world were just completely up in the air. You know, I grew up in Christianity, that's certainly my background. And so everything was up for debate. And really within like that first three months, everything just shifted.
00:06:05.850 --> 00:06:25.860
I call it my, my metaphysical awakening, you know, because I've again, I've always been a very spiritual person. And so in the midst of that year, you know, I came across the Akashic records, and things just totally shifted from there. But I'll pause, because it's a long story.
00:06:26.699 --> 00:06:45.449
I love this story. You know, there's a real common theme that people who have breakthroughs, like you had went through a painful time, right before, it's almost like we break, we open up, and we realize things, and I also can totally relate to drinking less, because I, I used to drink a lot when I was young.
00:06:45.930 --> 00:07:11.160
And I would drink sort of by habit, I think a lot of people are in that gray area between, you know, problem drinking, and just maybe leaning on it too much. And I think once you stopped leaning on it, which I just naturally stopped drinking, it didn't feel well, I didn't feel well, I'm older and it just didn't feel good. Once you stopped drinking, it's harder I find, because I don't, you know, I don't know anything.
00:07:11.189 --> 00:07:27.509
Everything just comes in. But I think that that's key right? To the heartbreak and then you you removed your crutch. And so it all kind of residing in. That's so cool. And yeah, also that you were there for it. I mean, that's not easy to go through.
00:07:27.509 --> 00:07:30.540
But you were there for it. Like you're like, Okay, bring it on.
00:07:32.009 --> 00:07:51.389
Yeah, I would, I would like to say that I was like that brave in the moment. But it was really just like more of a decision because I was I was really seeing myself going to that crutch in a way that was unhealthy. And when my friend she had just broken up with her boyfriend, she was like, I'm in no, we're gonna do this challenge. We got some friends.
00:07:51.389 --> 00:09:07.710
And I was like, I need to do that, too. I just knew I needed to, you know, what I really come to see with alcohol, drugs, whatever, you know, when we turn to these things, and when we rely on these things, it's because there's something missing on the inside. I think it's that spiritual connection that we're all hungry yearning looking for. And when I say spiritual, spiritual, to me is really coming home to ourselves to who we are, to the divinity that is within all of us, you know. And when I look back at those years, when I was drinking, like, how I was so bored with life, I was so like, there was this part of me that was always looking for the magic, you know, it was not interested in like, I'm gonna go to school, I'm gonna go to college, I'm gonna, like, get married and have the white picket fence do the kids, like, I had zero interest in all of that, you know, and but I looked around and it was just like, really is this is all we're here for. And also, I was very awkward. I mean, I would like go to bars when I was 21. And talk to people about God, you know, not like trying to evangelize them at all. I was just curious, like, what do you think about God? Like, I didn't do this surface conversations very well, like, what do you do for work?
00:09:07.740 --> 00:09:10.289
You know, like, I wanted to be like, so what's your greatest fear?
00:09:11.190 --> 00:09:37.350
So you crave that dumps? Yeah, yeah. And so alcohol kind of made me a little bit more socially acceptable, you know, along the way. But I completely agree with you. And I see it so much within my work with my clients. Pain is such a beautiful teacher. And of course, we do everything in our power to run in the other direction from it. But it truly, truly always transforms our life.
00:09:38.759 --> 00:10:41.909
If you learn how to lean into it, and that's something I've been hearing a lot about, and have a hard time still doing that, but it's just a beautiful thing if you can lean into it, and go through it instead of trying to avoid it. And I think the idea that people sometimes drink to avoid things too, they just don't want to face things about themselves, or they don't want to be hurt, and so they, they drink. But you know what came to mind when you said there's also a, you know, a hole inside like a spiritual hole is, I don't know if you've ever heard this but Jung said there's a reason we call alcohol spirits. Because we're looking inside that bottle for something much more than than just, you know, a quick high that we're spiritually longing. I feel so much lately that that's the world. And they don't even know it. They're just I see it everywhere people are longing for something. And I think the answer is, you know, to connect.
00:10:37.889 --> 00:10:54.299
Yeah, and people, I think that's what you help people do is connect to their true selves, there's their spiritual, you know, we're, some people are just not acknowledging that part of themselves. And so they're not their full selves.
00:10:55.110 --> 00:11:13.409
Well, we're tired taught from a young age to ignore that part of herself, right, we're taught that all of the answers are found in our exterior world. So as we get older, we're looking for people to fill that hole money to fill that hole cars success, you know what I mean?
00:11:10.620 --> 00:12:15.629
We're looking on the outside of ourselves. Like, we're literally taught to ignore everything that's within us, you know, which is really what is going to feed us what's going to guide us what is our truth in this lifetime. And so it's so easy, you know, like, I mean, I was, I was in that world, too, when I'm, I'm still in that world, like, I'm a human being, you know, like, I still catch myself, like, looking for outside answers to my problems, or looking for outside exterior material things to satisfy and satiate me in a way that nothing can, you know, I mean, it's, it's normal, it's a natural part of our evolution, and it takes time to really be able to work through that, you know, I don't think we'll ever be perfect at it. I don't, I don't see that, you know, Earth is a learning planet, it's not the like, hang out be cool flow through life planet. So we're constantly evolving here. And that's really part of the beautiful journey, although it could totally suck sometimes.
00:12:17.909 --> 00:12:24.870
Well, they say you choose your, you know, you scope out your life plan before you incarnate.
00:12:21.149 --> 00:12:35.490
And I've always said, you know, I think I got a little ambitious. I'm not sure I like this. You always have free will.
00:12:29.789 --> 00:12:47.190
So you don't have to do. I've been feeling that way a lot lately. Like, you don't have to do everything everybody's talking about. You don't have to always be striving and going for your passion and being you know, having your good habits, you can also rest.
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:58.440
Well, that's why it's so important to connect with ourselves and to connect with our own wisdom that's within, so that we can decide like, okay, is this for me? Or is it not?
00:12:58.529 --> 00:13:28.679
Because we can like think something is really cool. Really appreciate it, admire it, but no, like, but that's not for me, you know, and really learn how to focus in on the things that are for us. Because there is I mean, the outside world, there's endless opportunities and endless holes for us to dive into. And so we have to, you know, that's part of our own responsibility in our lives, is to take that time to say like, Okay, I love this, this is interesting. Is this for me?
00:13:28.679 --> 00:14:04.379
Should I go here? Should I spend my time here, you know, and then make those decisions, because not everything is for us. And that's a beautiful thing. You know, we don't need to do all the things. And I think especially I know, within the spiritual community anyway, like, oh my gosh, like, there's endless things, endless rabbit holes. You know, but even within the business world, too, like I get on Twitter, and there's so many people talking about this app, or this thing, or the strategy, or, you know what I mean? And if you don't have a solid sense of self, if you don't, if you're not able to kind of sit with yourself and say like, okay, is this for me?
00:14:04.379 --> 00:14:25.440
Is this for my business? Or is this, you know, for my life, then you're going to be lost and running around? And again, like no shame, because we all get caught up in that somebody will do it. Yeah. That's our job, you know, is to learn. Yeah, absolutely. What is for us and what is not? That's such a good point.
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:47.490
But we don't like you say, we're not taught to trust that inner knowledge. So we have to work on that. And I'm just sort of fascinated that one of the things you use to help people is the Akashic records. I've heard a little bit about it, but I'd love to have you tell our listeners more because it's an amazing topic. I'm really interested.
00:14:48.299 --> 00:16:13.320
Yeah. So the Akashic records for me, it was really interesting. I joke about this. When I first came across the name I was like, Whoa, it was this like Hollywood moment. where I felt like I was coming home like, I felt like I'd found something that I always knew. But then I looked into the definition. And I was like, what? I was still very much in my marketing world, I had no real context for understanding the Akashic records. And it just felt too cool for me to be quite frank about it. But so to explain the Akashic records, I think what's most important to like, first understand is that everything is energy, right? So the wall is energy, my chairs, energy, I'm energy, but it's all vibrating at different frequencies of energy. So, the Akashic records are located around us at all times, they're always here, but they're actually located in at such a high frequency that it's in a different dimension. And so when I access the Akashic records, I literally raise my vibration so that I'm able to access that kind of energy. And if this sounds kind of esoteric, you can kind of think about what it's like to be around someone who has really great energy and they like lift you up whenever you're around them, you know, it's the same kind of concept.
00:16:08.669 --> 00:18:00.900
So within the Akashic records is every thought, deed, action, anything that you can imagine, past, present future, literally everything exists within the Akashic records. And because everything is energy, everything has an Akashic Record. So I could enter the Akashic records for your home for your grandmother's ring for your pet for a city estate, like literally anything has an Akashic Record, it's really incredible. And when I say record, it is a record of all of the energetic records that have been compiled in the life of whatever that energetic thing is. So you know, and when folks hear like past present future, time is such a, an interesting concept, right? So you've probably heard that it is a human concept, time does not exist. In fact, past, present future are all happening at one time. And so when I go into the Akashic records, I can access past and present information and it's very solid, it is solidified it is there. But when it comes to future timelines, we are consistently recreating new timelines with every word thought, deed action. So while I can tap in to future timelines, they're consistently being recreated. I mean, there's literally 1000s of timelines that are coming out of pretty much every moment. Or when you make a big decision in life, like when you decide to move to one house versus another, like, boom, all these 1000s of timelines open up. So future is one of those things that that hasn't been solidified, right, it hasn't been crystallized yet.
00:17:57.210 --> 00:18:24.869
However, there's still energy attached to it, so that we can see what timelines are happening within that moment, if that makes sense. But suffice it to say, the Akashic records, I mean, it's, it's like, I consider the Akashic records to be God energy, because if you think about God, source universe, whatever you want to call it, God created everything.
00:18:21.029 --> 00:18:36.660
God knows everything. God contains everything. And that is exactly what the Akashic records is. And I'm not saying the Akashic records are God, and I'm not saying that I channel God.
00:18:31.769 --> 00:18:45.900
But the energy within the Akashic records is that such a high vibrational energy, I mean, it is pure, pure love, and it heals you simply by being there.
00:18:45.990 --> 00:19:01.019
I mean, I am a completely different person. I shouldn't say completely, but very, I'm a much nicer person. I'm a much happier person, I am a much more Healed person than when I first came to the Akashic records. And that's simply by being there.
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:20.670
Not even considering the work that I've done within the Akashic records. So I'll pause there that's amazing to me so many things that you said it's just totally amazing. I am very interested in how you learn to raise your frequency because I have read about that. How did you learn that how do you do that?
00:19:21.450 --> 00:21:18.210
So I mean, the thing is, is that when I first started working with him the records my first real introduction to it so when they popped up for me I was like Yeah, that's cool awesome. You gotta be like some kind of like I don't know like wizard magician person to work with them like I but they kept popping up kept popping up kept popping up for me, and then one day at the very like beginning of 2020. How to read a book, How to read the Akashic records by Linda Howe, popped up on Facebook, and for whatever reason, I decided to purchase it. It arrived on a Saturday morning, by the afternoon I'd read through like three fourths of the book. And that Monday morning, I went into the Akashic records. The first time I read the prayer, I followed her instructions. And it was like this wild ride. I mean, I was seeing, feeling, hearing knowing things, all at one time, it felt like I was like going through a washing machine, my energy had shifted, so much like my stomach physically hurt, it was very uncomfortable for me at first, it really took me some time to learn how to work with my energy, how to shift my energy in these ways. Now, I can click into the Akashic records very quickly, because of course, I've been doing it for a long time, and I can raise my energy very quickly. But it really takes practice, you know, these are, these are muscles that we all have. But just like any muscle, we've got to work it out, to understand it to learn how to work with it to know when it's happening to know, you know what I mean? All about it makes sense that you would have to practice Yeah, so, okay, so you there was a prayer involved? And you had to practice at it. Now, what have you, like, what do you do when you when you go there? Like how do you help somebody using the Akashic records?
00:21:19.019 --> 00:21:56.490
Yeah, so in client sessions, like they're, they're just unlimited ways in which to work within the records. You know, everything from pets, so I've had clients come to me who are really having issues with their pets, maybe it's health issues, maybe they've adopted an animal and they're having problems like really connecting with it, or they're, you know, like eating up their house, whatever. And we can understand that relationship, we can clear out energy there that prevents them from connecting, we can find out what's going on health wise. You know, relationships are a huge, huge theme with my clients.
00:21:57.329 --> 00:22:38.819
Folks, I got a lot of parents who come in and want to know how to be the best parents with their kids, maybe to understand a child that they have a lot of issues or friction with and they're like, oh my gosh, I love my kid, but like historically, crazy. Romantic relationships are obviously very, very popular. People really want to understand like, Alright, I'm with this person, what's going on here. And within the records, like, what I love about the records, I call them soul records, because they go down to the very root of whatever it is, we are talking about. So if I, you know, say like, Okay, so tell me about Susie and Tim's relationship, like, what do we need to know here what's most important for her to understand?
00:22:39.539 --> 00:23:21.900
It could end up being like a 20 minute channeling, all about their past lives, their lessons, what they're teaching each other, the dynamics within the relationship, the pros and cons, everything. And the Akashic records are not a tool they're ever going to be like, You need to lead this person, this person is not good for you don't take this job. That's not what the Akashic records are about. The Akashic records are about providing us the information so that we can make the decision on our own because we create our lives, right, we create our reality. And so they are just about providing the information so that then someone can make a decision from that standpoint, life purpose is a huge topic.
00:23:18.630 --> 00:23:27.059
People want to know, like, Why did I incarnate here? What are my lessons? You know, what are the themes for this lifetime?
00:23:24.779 --> 00:24:40.500
What are my gifts? What are my talents, patterns, and issues, like working through things? You know, I've got folks who I work with a lot of clients for, like body issues, right? Like, they want to understand I've always been an emotional eater. What is this? What's going on? How can I clear this out? How can I manage this, you know, over to like depression or anxiety, like I've always struggled with these things, what's going on? Where did this come from? A lot of this stuff is, you know, connected to past lives. And so, you know, healing really takes place on a on several levels, right, the person has to really be ready for that, they have to be ready to release that, then it's coming into an awareness of what's going on, you know, and then it's that energetic clearing that work. And we can do that within the Akashic records as well. We can clear out those old records, we can replace them with other records, there's a number of things that can happen there. There's, there's literally just, I mean, I could go on and on with examples, but you name it. I mean, I've worked with clients, just across the board. The work that I most love to do is like the hardcore, you know, got folks everywhere from like, what am I gifts and talents to like, my life is falling apart. How do I fix it? How do I I love that.
00:24:40.589 --> 00:25:23.640
I'm like, Let me roll up my sleeves. Let's dive in. Let's do it. I like that kind of work because obviously I think it's very fulfilling to do I mean, I'm I'm forever forever grateful for even being able to be a part of people's journeys, but I'm also very practical and While the spiritual can be cool and interesting, like I want real life changes, I want to see things shift, you know, and I want that for my clients as well. So I like doing the hard stuff. I've got a couple of clients who, when they first came to me, they're like, thank you so much for being willing to work with me on this, but I'm like, let's do it. Like, you like to dig in and get results.
00:25:23.670 --> 00:25:28.140
Yes, I'm a problem solver. You know, I like excavating things.
00:25:28.140 --> 00:25:36.299
And I'm a detective, like, it's fun. It's interesting to me, you know, the human journey is, it's incredible.
00:25:36.480 --> 00:26:26.519
I just know a little bit I've just been exposed a little bit to the, the way that some of our problems are connected to past lives. And I am just fascinated by it. And I'm just amazed at when you just take a little time, and you acknowledge something, the difference that can make, I think we're just not taught these tools, like you said, we're not taught to look at things that way. And I'm learning, you know, the more you do it, the more you trust that quiet inside, and the more you really try to release things, the better off you'll be. So these things I never would have imagined I was I would be talking about just a few years ago, you help expand people's worlds, you know, I don't think you're ever going to be the same once you're exposed to these things. And I think that's such a, a wonderful way to heal people.
00:26:26.819 --> 00:26:48.509
Yeah, well, it's, I mean, you know, our world right now, especially in the past couple years, with the pandemic, everything, people are awakening in ways that they, they are, it is wild for me to look back on my life, you know, just five years ago, and think about, like, some of the beliefs that I had, or the ways that I saw the world. It's, it's just so wild.
00:26:48.509 --> 00:27:48.089
For me. I'm like, Wait, why didn't you see this before? Why weren't you here before, but like, everything happens in perfect timing, you know, we can't rush that, especially spiritual awakenings. Like, we can fight it, we can suffer, we can do all the things, but it will happen. And it's right timing, everything happens in the right time, you know, but I love that pets tip like, animals to me in general, are I, I have such a special heart for animals I can't even show you. And I love that. And I think it's really when people do have those interactions and you know, within your body when it's truth, when someone's you know, sharing honest information with you. And it's absolutely healing. Absolutely, people can get so much closure, you know, from connecting with folks who have passed away potentially through a medium, or you know, within the Akashic records, like I've had folks who have passed away come through in sessions.
00:27:44.759 --> 00:28:40.829
Mediumship is very different from Akashic records. But, you know, I've had like clients whose parents passed away when they were very young, and it like, completely derailed their life. They were heartbroken over it. And so understanding why it was that their parents passed away, what was going on there, or a parent who was maybe like, completely emotionally unavailable to them throughout their life, or seemingly didn't love them or was abusive to them, like, having understanding about these areas, I mean, it it shifts your life forever. You know, it's very powerful, that is powerful. One of the things that's happened in my life, the last I would say, Well, I've always been into nature, but last four years, it's really intensified. Where I literally feel like, called by mother nature, like literally called to be with her and to, like, put my feet on the ground.
00:28:40.829 --> 00:29:06.690
And, I mean, I've always spent time in nature, but I feel pulled. And I think that there's, I try to tell everybody to do that, to spend time in nature, because it's science backed, you know, that it's good for you to nature wash, and you heal better and, but there's something going on with Mother Earth, there's something big, and I felt really alone with it until I started reading and talking to people and realize, okay, this is a thing.
00:29:07.230 --> 00:29:25.049
Absolutely. It's a thing and you mate, like, not everyone is connected to the earth in the same way. You know, like, I just had a client. Yesterday, very much her soul was in like it originally incarnated on planet Earth. That's where it started.
00:29:25.049 --> 00:29:32.730
And so she is very connected with earth and very connected with the vibration of Earth.
00:29:29.460 --> 00:29:56.819
What's happening within Earth, I mean, everybody has different connections and different ways to things, you know. So if, if this is you, and you're being called in this way, and other people aren't, that's just because your connection with Earth is that much deeper, you know, really depends on where your soul originated, and there's probably a reason for that. You may not even be aware of it yet. It may come down the road for you, but there's something in there for you, you know.
00:29:57.720 --> 00:30:16.980
Interesting. I do think in general that People would be better off if they were, you know, more connected to nature and more in balance. I feel like people are living like, you know, like you said the nine to five kind of thing. They're living like a whole day inside of a metal building. without sunlight. You know, it's just, that makes me sad.
00:30:17.789 --> 00:31:12.599
Absolutely. I mean, I'm, I am like a massive nature lover. I'm outside as much as possible. My partner and I are kind of doing Airbnb life right now. And our current place has this little back porch and we've got like this little yard, and it's so cute. I spoil the heck out of the wildlife wherever I go. So I've got like, you know, treats out there for them and like, and we've got to know the chipmunks and the squirrels and the birds, you know, and I'm out there multiple times throughout the day, sometimes even when it's raining, because part of our roof is covered just because I need that. That connection, I know, yielding, and I just feel I don't feel afraid of animals anymore. Like there's a little snake that I almost stepped on the other day. And it was headed into our garden. And I just said hello, you know, it's just not the same. You know, I don't I was startled, but I'm not afraid.
00:31:13.138 --> 00:31:19.019
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I'm even cool with spiders. Now, it's not the case.
00:31:20.160 --> 00:31:34.920
You said that my mother used to always say don't kill the spiders. They, they, you know, they don't hurt us. And they, they eat the littler bugs in our house. And I always thought that was odd, but interesting. But I feel that way. I feel like I can't kill the spiders anymore.
00:31:35.220 --> 00:31:38.309
Yeah, I just take them outside.
00:31:35.220 --> 00:31:49.440
Because I don't want to think about them. When I'm laying in bed at night. Exactly. There's, but I don't want to kill them by any means. I'm thankful for them. You know, there's definitely a shift that happens because I used to kill them.
00:31:49.890 --> 00:31:53.940
Yeah. And now I don't want to same. That's so interesting.
00:31:55.230 --> 00:32:06.180
So where do your clients come from? Like, how do you? Are they all walks of life? Or you know, all different ages or professions? Or I'm really interested, who seeks this kind of healing out?
00:32:06.960 --> 00:34:21.570
Yeah, you know, I think that what's interesting to me is that my, the folks who come to me really like they, it goes through these different sort of, like, evolutions, like I'll have a very specific type of person for a while. And then another specific type of person. And or I'll have like a group of people who come in with kind of like the same topic that they want to talk about. And then another one, back, when I was single, I used to notice this sort of a pattern to it was like, I'd end up dating a bunch of Leo's for a while, and then a bunch of like, you know, like, I would have like these like pockets of folks. I think that honestly, if I was to kind of generalize, I would definitely say that 40 Plus, you know, 40 to 60 is really like my hotspot, I feel like a lot of people who are really going through those midlife changes a lot of people who are really wanting to get, you know, really deeper about their life, who are awakening spiritually, who are like, what's going on? I've got a lot of people who come to me because they understand, you know, they come from an organized religious background like mine, or even my business background. They're very practical people and they're like, What the heck is going on? I'm like hearing things. And you know what I mean? But I would say just hands down. Folks who come to the Akashic records are getting ready to make big shifts in their life that's across the board. You know, when people because the Akashic records are, it's still an esoteric thing to a lot of people. You know, it's not like, people have heard about it here and there within you know, spiritual community, but it's not like, like tarot cards, right? And it's not considered that accessible either. Even though anyone can read the Akashic records, you don't have to be special, everyone has access to them. You know, people who come to the Akashic records, like legitimately are getting ready to make big shifts in their life in whatever shape and form it could be purpose spiritual, you know, family career, like, you don't come to the Akashic records for oh, I just want to try this out. That rarely happens. That's so interesting.
00:34:21.570 --> 00:34:28.110
So they're on the, they're like on the edge. They're ready to jump into something. Yeah. And they need they need guidance.
00:34:28.230 --> 00:34:34.590
That makes sense. And it sounds so fascinating. Like each person must be so different and so interesting.
00:34:35.010 --> 00:35:01.110
Yeah, it's really cool. Because when I go into the Akashic records for different people, I'm accessing their Akashic Record. So I'm in their energy, and I'm working with their guides, what's, you know, my gifts continue to expand and one of the most recent things which has been really wild is like, my smell like when I'm in people's Akashic records, now I just smelled them the entire time.
00:34:55.559 --> 00:35:17.639
It's bizarre. Um, but like if they're having pain in their body, you know, if they're dealing with something physical like I feel it as soon as I open up the Akashic records, like I am literally in their energy while I'm working within their Akashic records, so it is so cool because it is completely different every time.
00:35:17.789 --> 00:35:22.949
That's amazing to me. Now, how do you do anything to sort of decompress or come out of that?
00:35:20.699 --> 00:35:24.480
Like, yes, I would imagine you're not.
00:35:25.019 --> 00:35:27.059
Exactly, you know, you don't just bounce back.
00:35:27.809 --> 00:36:26.519
Yes, I think that, you know, learning how to ground is extremely important. I have a couple of like, just energy clearing things that I do very simple things like just washing your hands can actually really release. There's like a Reiki thing that I learned for clearing my energy, it takes like, five seconds. Sometimes I'll go outside, you know, whether you're reading the Akashic records for yourself or other people going and doing really mundane things afterwards is huge. So like taking out the trash, you know, eating some food, yeah, have a conversation with a friend. Yeah, just bring your energy back down, you know, to planet earth. So it really just depends on the session, you know, some sessions I get out of, and it's very light. Other sessions, like, I got to put more work into not only disconnecting and fully releasing that energy, but also grounding myself from it.
00:36:26.760 --> 00:36:37.619
Oftentimes, when I work with others, spiritual practitioners, man, we go to like different places, because it's like, too strong energies coming together.
00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:46.019
And so it takes a bit more like coming down to planet earth after that. But I imagine those usually feel great. So it's, you know, it's a, it's a joyful thing.
00:36:47.190 --> 00:36:58.860
That's so great. So I would, I would like to know, people want to know how to get in touch with you. I'm going to put your information in my show notes.
00:36:54.599 --> 00:37:00.269
But can you tell us the main way we could reach out to you?
00:37:00.690 --> 00:38:49.949
Yeah, so going to my website on a hendrix.com. And that's ah, N A, h e n d r i l x.com. You will find everything about me. You know about my podcast, share all my episodes there, you can listen tune in there. You can also find my podcast, pretty much anywhere, Spotify, iTunes, I've got a YouTube channel, I hang out on Instagram a lot. If you want to connect with me and say, hi, please do I'll say what's up. Yeah, I love connecting with people. So feel free to reach out. Right now I'm getting ready to launch a course called an Akashic journey with the body that is just going to be an incredible six week journey. It's a fully channeled Akashic Record course, all about the body, we are going to literally revolutionize our relationships with the body like this is this is coming at it from such a completely different angle. When my guides first started bringing this in, it was just like, what? Because we're going to find out like what the body is, on a molecular level, why we have a body what was before our body, what is the purpose of our bodies? How do we care for our bodies, like very practical, tangible things, but also from a very metaphysical perspective, as well. So if that's of interest to you, that we've got, that's an early bird thing happening right now. And we kick that off on June 19. So there's also a Kaushik sessions, and I also work with folks doing mentorships. So these are spiritual, you know, guidance sessions. They're intuitively led, we work with your guides, your higher self. And it's said it's kind of like coaching, but I think way cooler, sounds way cooler.
00:38:50.909 --> 00:39:28.170
And we've got, and they also include my restoration sessions, which are, I call them restoration session, but they're like healing sessions. And that's us working within the Akashic records to remove whatever issues, whatever things are holding you back energy that's keeping you stuck, or stagnant, whatever the case may be. So it's a really beautiful pairing. But yeah, I'm kind of all over the place. And you can just find me anywhere add on a Hendrix. Yeah, I love the idea of looking at the body in a different, you know, more meaningful, spiritual way.
00:39:25.019 --> 00:39:28.170
I think that would be great.
00:39:28.260 --> 00:39:34.769
Because, you know, we're never again, we're not taught any of that. We're taught kind of a superficial way to look at our bodies.
00:39:35.219 --> 00:40:52.409
Well, it's, you know, the thing is, is that from a very young age, we're taught to ignore our body, we're taught that the body is not right. We're taught to, you know, take care of it in ways that don't align. And then when we get older, we're taught to just like love ourselves, love our bodies, take care of it, but it's like, what is the body? You know, we see our body as separate. We really struggle with like loving and accepting it because we don't understand it. And that's all All about, you know, that's, that's what we're diving into in this course is bringing that together and helping to reconnect. Because there's a real, there's a real disconnect for the majority of us when it comes to our body, you know, it's, it's not something that we like it, it's got a lot of pain associated with it. And we've sort of really hurt that relationship along the way of our, you know, throughout our life. And so reestablishing that having a better understanding, not one that you can read, you know, from online sources and, you know, medical magazines and stuff like that this is very different. So I'm so excited. A lot of this information is like, sitting on my back burner right now. And I just can't wait to dive in. Because I'll be learning with with folks in the course too with a lot of this.
00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:52.409
So it'll be incredible.
00:40:52.739 --> 00:41:00.510
Sounds so good. And I think it's needed because sometimes people think being spiritual is being you know, not the body. Right?
00:41:00.630 --> 00:41:07.469
Yeah, they're so like, airy fairy that they're not paying attention. And really, both things are important.
00:41:07.829 --> 00:41:34.230
Yeah. Well, I mean, just ask yourself, Who would you be? If you understood your body? Who would you be if you accepted your body? But like, for me, that's huge. You know? And I think for a lot of people, especially women out there, like, Who would we be if we understood our body? How would we take care of ourselves in a different way? How would we view ourselves a different way? Like, it would change everything?
00:41:34.349 --> 00:41:52.349
Yeah, you know, because there's so many of us, our body has, like, in our ideas about our body and our relationship with our body have prevented us from fully diving into life, fully accepting ourselves fully stepping into our power and allowing ourselves to be seen.
00:41:48.150 --> 00:41:58.679
And so this is definitely like life altering work. And so crucial, so powerful, you know, for those who feel called.
00:41:58.980 --> 00:42:33.539
Yeah, you know, what's, what's you're bringing up for me is when I had kids late, and when I had children, that was very powerful, like to respect my body for the ability to do things I didn't even know I knew how to do. And just that, that wonderful feeling of being able to give birth to another human being and and then I breastfed forever, like people were like, is she ever going to wean her children? But I just love that, you know, maybe, like connected in a way I hadn't in so long. I think when you're really little you connect to your body?
00:42:34.019 --> 00:42:51.539
Yeah, well, kids know exactly what they want. They do body tells them, you know, but they have a lot of adults and outside opinions about what is right or wrong for them, you know, and instead of explaining to children, they just say no, you're not allowed to do this, you're not allowed to have that.
00:42:51.570 --> 00:43:44.550
So then they teach them to, to not trust their body's intuition, instead of at least explaining to them and helping them to understand, like, you know, I think that there's this whole element of parenting where parents treat children too much like children. And children are so wise and so intuitive. And honestly, they know what's going on, they can handle it. And if we're honest with them, hopefully total, you know, game changer for them the different interaction. Yeah, that's so true. We always say, just get out of their way. Yeah, that's how we, that's how we parented it's like, they came a certain way. And you just got to let them grow the way they're, they want to get out of their way. They're like, you know, they're like plants, like plants that are growing, and you don't want to tell them what to do.
00:43:44.579 --> 00:44:53.909
They know what to do. I always felt that way. Well, this has been amazing. I did have one more question. Did you always know you had guides or did this happen in parallel with accessing the records I'm not someone who was like born seeing my guides, not by any means. I again was always very spiritually connected. I mean, one of my first memories is definitely seeing angels. And I saw mult many, many miracles happen when I was younger and had conversations with God multiple times. But it wasn't so much like guides thing for me like I'm very I'm very connected to God and I think a an interesting sort of way that I don't fully understand. And even now, my guides for me are they're not necessarily guides that I like, see and interact. I know who some of them are. But my primary like, I'm kind of even when I was a Christian, I was like, I love Jesus, but I'm going straight to the source man. Like what's that God, like?
00:44:54.420 --> 00:45:06.539
Go into the big man. Like that's where I want to go. Like, why why stop Jesus? You know, I'm just going straight up. And that's just us just the way it works for me. So.
00:45:07.949 --> 00:45:10.320
So you feel the guides rather than see them?
00:45:10.469 --> 00:45:25.289
Yes, absolutely. I'm very, I know when they like move in. I know when they're working on me, I know when they're, you know, my primary, like, my strongest gift, if you will, is hearing.
00:45:25.920 --> 00:46:45.480
And it's just an open channel 24/7. I had no idea. I had no idea that that was what I thought it was my own voice, which a lot of people who are clairaudient will tell you, you know, they'll be like, well, it's just my voice. And even when people start really strengthening their clear audience, it's a it's it's starting to understand that your voice is also like the difference between your voice versus your guides, like what that difference is like ego, versus, you know, those spiritual guides. And it's very soft and very gentle. And yeah, I just, I always thought it was me. And then when I started, well, when I was shown that this was my primary gift, it was really cool. It was like one of my, my favorite moments in the Akashic records, because for a long time, I was really seeing things and the records when I first started, which was great, but I'm someone who will like point in a microwave and be like, shut the oven. Like, I always get my words wrong. And so like figuring out how to fully articulate myself was, you know, I was learning how to communicate. And then I learned through a meditation that Claire audience was my strongest gift.
00:46:41.550 --> 00:47:40.019
And I was just like, what, and I went into the Akash cried after that. And they were like, Yes, this is, and they showed me, just, I mean, it was such a beautiful, like, session meeting with them, they showed me like, music has always been huge for me my entire life. I'm extremely sensitive to sound. And a number of different things just really connected that and then they showed me that like, this had just like everything that I had been experiencing my whole life was was that spiritual connection. And that was that, that being led that being guided that it was just coming through at all times, you know, and then of course, I made all the connections with not all of them. But you know, because you can look back on your life and be like, Oh, my gosh, this and this, and this hadn't realized, right? You always had it. Yeah. That's so interesting. Yeah, I've had, you know, probably not as dramatic.
00:47:40.019 --> 00:47:47.429
But I've had a similar sort of thing where I look back and say, oh, you know, that wasn't me.
00:47:43.230 --> 00:47:47.429
That was that was somebody else?
00:47:48.329 --> 00:49:14.579
Yeah. Yeah. It's really interesting, really, I think all of us have. And usually our strongest gifts are the ones that we take for granted the most the ones that we would never think are anything we wrote. We don't realize like, this is actually me, but not me. It's coming through me whether it's seeing with your third eye, maybe people with incredible imaginations, you know, or like, whatever the case may be, they don't they don't realize that's a incredible intuitive gift that they have. I believe we're all psychic, we're all extremely intuitive, like we all have, yes, yeah. For me, I started to notice that I seem to know. And I never noticed this before, but I seem to know what to say to people, they need to talk about something, and I seem to know what to bring up. And, you know, that's just not luck. You know, that's a perception and intuition. And now I'm appreciating it that I do. You know, it's not just some quirky thing that I do, that it's literally that I feel this person's pain or the you know, that they really want to talk about something. Yeah. And cognition. Yeah, in a funny way, though, I also manifest parking spaces. And I actually read about this, I thought I was the only one or I was like making it up. But it's just too freaky to be a coincidence. My family always says, Oh, you're in the car. That's why we found a space. And it's usually the third space from the curb.
00:49:15.000 --> 00:49:25.590
Hmm, interesting. not that interesting or useful, but, I mean, I just thought it would, it's really good to recognize that and say, Okay, you manifested something small.
00:49:26.429 --> 00:49:33.510
Maybe you have this ability. So it was really good to sort of take it seriously. Yeah, 1,000%.
00:49:29.190 --> 00:49:42.539
Everyone should look at these things. I think that's such a good point that people are psychic and they don't even know it. And people are getting information that's maybe not from them. And they don't even know it.
00:49:42.780 --> 00:49:47.610
Yeah, so absolutely. Absolutely.
00:49:42.780 --> 00:50:45.179
And there. There's such I think that there's big benefit actually in something like parking spaces because what that does is it opens a portal for you of what is possible, and what you're capable of and how powerful that you are and how powerful we are. I mean, one of the biggest things that I share whenever I'm teaching is I'm not special. I'm not, you know, like, you can look at me, and you can think that I've got these gifts, and I could do these things. And it is very cool. But anybody can do this, if they choose to do it, you know, and they'll do it in their own way. And that'll be the perfect way for them. Right. So whether it opens up in a parking spot, or maybe they're like seeing Angel numbers, or whatever the case may be like, things are happening more and more for people. And it's really just to start waking them up to like, you are connected, you are capable, you are powerful, you know, and beautiful that you remind people at that. I think that's lovely.
00:50:45.329 --> 00:50:56.728
So I don't think everyone does that they sort of have these special gifts, and they're special. Maybe they don't say that, but you sort of look at them that way, like, oh, they have these gifts, although you did always feel that connection.
00:50:56.759 --> 00:51:19.469
I mean, it's strong. And you, you know, it's really for sure fascinating that ever since you were little I'm just so intrigued, and I hope people contact you and learn more because I think we can all we can all open up, you know, and we can all enjoy more of the spectrum of spiritual experiences. It's been so cool talking to you.
00:51:20.130 --> 00:51:22.409
Absolutely land. Thank you so much for having me.
00:51:22.619 --> 00:51:28.320
Thank you. I loved it. Is there anything else you'd like to tell our listeners, I always like to give people one more shot.
00:51:29.489 --> 00:51:42.750
You know, I think the thing that I most love to say and that is the slogan for my podcast is that when we invest in ourselves, the world benefits.
00:51:37.530 --> 00:51:58.530
And when you put time and energy into yourself, don't be afraid to make yourself your number one priority. Take care of your physical body, take care of your spiritual body. Don't be afraid to invest in yourself because everyone will benefit from that.
00:51:52.980 --> 00:51:59.579
So that's what I that's the most dear thing to me.
00:52:00.148 --> 00:52:08.309
I love that. It's such a it's not something people think about that. You know what? When you change yourself, you helped change the world. I love that
