When life hurls challenges our way, how do we convert them into a force for greatness? Discover the art of turning pain into power as I, Vivian Medrano, engage in a profound conversation with the inspiring Rya from Australia. Together, we explore the intricacies of energy communication and how non-verbal connections can redefine our journey towards self-awareness and personal growth. Rya's tales of healing and my own reflections combine to celebrate the courage that comes from honoring one's truth and the liberation found within emotional authenticity.

Embark on a transformative exploration of self-empowerment and growth, where vulnerability paves the way to unlocking potential. Through our discussion, we unravel the significance of aligning our actions with our true feelings and recognize the power of simple acts of self-care. The conversation offers insights into the importance of confronting personal narratives and the freedom that comes from fully embracing the diversity of our emotions. We illustrate how these practices can mold our life experiences into a journey of self-love and appreciation, punctuated by Rya's personal stories and my reflections.

Wrapping up the session, we delve into the potent practices of mirror work, breathwork, and the liberation of movement, with Rya guiding us through the therapeutic release of tension and trauma. This episode not only sheds light on the importance of connecting deeply with our inner selves but also celebrates the art of self-expression and the beauty of raw, unfiltered emotion. As we part ways with Rya, we leave you with an invitation to affirm your worth, embrace your unique contributions, and confidently step into a future where you are loved, valued, and truly matter.

Speaker 1:

our pain right and I like I like to use the phrase going through, growing through tell us why.

Speaker 1:

Tell us why the difference between going through and growing through because if we go through it without learning the lessons, then life is just going to happen again the way it has been happening. In order to actually break the cycle, we have to learn the lesson, and once we've learned the lesson, it will finally click. The wheels, will start to change in a different direction. Change in a different direction. And that's why I say growing through, so that we can become mindful and conscious and aware of it and grow through it and make the most out of the opportunity and experience by learning from it and transmuting it into our power.

Speaker 3:

Welcome to the Self-Worth Revolution Podcast hosted by Vivian Medrano. I am not only a podcaster, but a mother, a nurse, a life coach and a survivor. This podcast is about turning your pain into your power, your experiences into your lessons, and to start living a life full of abundance, inner peace and fulfillment. My higher purpose is for my listeners to find their self-worth and their value by following their path to greatness. We are all deserving of living our best lives. It is time to stop identifying with our past. Start living in the present for a better future. This podcast will have guest speakers that will share their stories of how they transformed their lives and found their worth.

Speaker 3:

My mission is to let my listeners know this is your time to shine, to know that you are not alone. Healing is empowering. It takes courage to be vulnerable and our voices have power. Hold on to your lives, because this will be an incredible ride of self-transformation, self-empowerment and radical change. It is time for us to take our power back. Welcome to the Self-Worth Revolution podcast. I'm here with Raya. She's waking up early from Australia. She was just telling me how, her Aussie accents coming out, and I was just like that's just another part of you girl, like it's okay, and so she's amazing.

Speaker 3:

She really feels your energy, she's in tune with herself. She's gone through a lot of changes in life transformationally, healing, wise and so I wanted to bring her on here so she could share a little bit about her journey and how she got to where she's at and just connecting with herself, her inner beauty, her inner strength and just living her life of abundance. I think it's time for you to shine now, raya. Are you ready?

Speaker 3:

I'm ready so tell the listeners what you're just doing right now, because they can't see you, so they're not able to see how you're connecting with just your energy, with your self. I want you to tell people who are not going to be able to see it. I want you to really explain it as well, because I think it's a beautiful thing for people to who have never ever been part of such a world of energy and understanding how energy works with us, so they could really truly understand what their body is feeling. A lot of times, we forget to connect.

Speaker 1:

So, okay, let me try to put some words into it. I never have before, so this might come out very raw, but let me just try. So, basically, for those of you who are listening with just audio at the moment, what I've been doing, or what I am still doing, while speaking, is I'm making some hand movements and some hand gestures, so I guess it would be similar to how the deaf and mute communicate via sign language, and this is something that I really have to credit my friend Nina. She has a hearing disability and I just wanted to acknowledge her and give her a shout out right now and maybe I can send this video for her to watch later on, because I do want her to realize the impact that she's had on my life by just being her, and she was the one who made me realize that we can communicate even if we can't hear anything.

Speaker 1:

And she's amazing because all throughout high school she went to a normal, private, exclusive girls school, but not a special school, and she always had this hearing aid to help her to hear, and I always knew that she did, but it never really like hit me or dawned on me that, oh my gosh, she was actually not to be rude or anything, but she was actually hard of hearing, like the word deaf, but I don't like that word, I there's something cringy to me about that word, so I would prefer to say hard of hearing. And she was mostly like lip reading and and I was like, oh my goodness, you survived the whole grade school seven years, high school, four years, and in just a normal classroom with 41 42 students around you and you were seated, you know, maybe like in the middle, maybe like the third row, third, fourth row, but you function pretty much like everyone else. And she got good grades and all of that and like it just blew my mind, like that is amazing. And so she was the one who taught me earlier on in my energy journey and I was kidding, I was jokingly saying to her I think you're actually my energy coach and I have to credit her with a vibe check. It's a vibe check.

Speaker 1:

So sometimes you just have to close your eyes, think of someone, tune into the frequency and what does that vibe tell you about them? What does that vibe feel like? And that energy, you can read it by just body language. You can read how a person truly feels by looking at those non-verbal cues, and so what I've been doing is just moving my hands in a way that like sign language, but I don't know if it's actually sign language. I'm simply channeling energy and I'm just doing it intuitively. So that's all. That's what I've been doing.

Speaker 3:

And it's so beautiful because you could feel the energy you could see through the movements of your hands. I could feel like when we first connected with each other, I knew you were feeling something, so that's why I was like you could be in your zone, you could be in your space. A lot of times, a lot of people forget that they need to step aside and let that person be in their space, whatever that space, however long it takes them, and so I knew you needed your space, and that's the beauty of us being able to connect with one another, because we're able to understand and be free to be who we are by just accepting each other for who we are. And so I love you, raya, as you know, and I'm so happy to have you here and you bringing your wisdom and knowledge to our listeners. So, yeah, she's feeling it.

Speaker 3:

So tell me about the card right now that we just kind of brought up right now, which was the card that you were feeling. Let's start with the first one, which is this one. Okay, so it says stay you or, like you said before, stay us.

Speaker 1:

Stay, us.

Speaker 3:

Stay authenticallyically, beautifully, powerfully us that's what we need more in this world right just to authentically be ourselves and to be able to connect with what our intuition tells us that we should connect with. To be more intuitive and just use every power that we have, from the dark to the light, because everything that we are going through right now, everything that we have with us, it's just for a higher purpose in life, for our greater and even our challenges, our pain, our experiences.

Speaker 1:

Most especially our pain Right. And. I like to use the phrase going through, growing through.

Speaker 3:

Growing through. Tell us why. Tell us why the difference between going through and growing through.

Speaker 1:

Because if we go through it without learning the lessons, then life is just going to happen again the way it has been happening. In order to actually break the cycle, we have to learn the lesson. And once we've learned the lesson, it will finally click. The wheels will start to change in a different direction. And that's why I say growing through, so that we can become mindful and conscious and aware of it and grow through it and make the most out of the opportunity and experience by learning from it and transmuting it into our power.

Speaker 3:

That's so beautiful because we could go through the tunnel right and we could just go in a straight line. But if we didn't look at everything that was around us while we were going through that dark tunnel and grasp lessons and grasp what you're teaching us and learning from it, we're just going to lead ourselves back into the same place we were before, because we're not learning as we're going through it. And that's the beauty of growing and having a growth mindset is that you start accepting every part of what you're going through in life to mold yourself into like just a beautiful being.

Speaker 1:

And so, as we go through this tunnel, we can't I just have to also emphasize that we have to like, feel all the messy bits, all the all the messy bits, all the craziness, all the ickiness, the yuckiness. Why? Because it is an opportunity for us to feel the contrast. By feeling the contrast, then we know what we don't like, then we, by default, then obviously we know that the opposite of it is what we do like and by that simple acknowledgement, then we can simply start choosing what it is we do like and we can put our foot down and take a stand and say none more of this shit.

Speaker 1:

Please, no more. Next, thank you next I love that.

Speaker 3:

Yes, it's like I'm over this, I'm done with this, and it's not. And it's in general. It has to do with your job that you're working. If you're not happy in your job that you're working, you know, figure out. Either you're going to stay and make positive choices for yourself and changes for yourself and set boundaries, or you're going to choose to say I've had enough, this is not for me, and changes for yourself and set boundaries. Or you're gonna choose to say I've had enough, this is not for me and leave right. There's the choices. It goes with relationships, it goes with friendships, it goes with anything, because at the end of the day, you have to build what's important for you.

Speaker 1:

You know for you what's important for you, because what's important for us is so different from what's important from the people around us, and I just want to say this with so much potency and power so that people will realize we are not our parents dreams, we are not our sisters or siblings reality, we are not our best mates idea or could be sometimes.

Speaker 1:

But you know, sometimes what's fun for us is not fun for other people and what's fun for them is not fun for us, and therefore we constantly have to evaluate. It's good that we have other people in our lives because they share with us their life and we get a glimpse of how it is they live. But then we can also choose to say that, oh hey, that's nice, I would like to adopt that and practice that in my everyday life. Or we can also choose to say, nah, that's not really working for me, or not, nah, no, thank you, that's too kinky. None of that, please. We are always learning, we are always growing and yet, at the same time, we are perfect, just as we are, and everything we do at any moment in time is just perfect as it is.

Speaker 3:

It is, and that's like you know.

Speaker 3:

A lot of times. I was reading this book called true love, and one of the things that it's very important to understand about what love is is understanding is one of them, and the other one is freedom, meaning it's freedom to be who you are, whether you're in a relationship, whether you're at work, that people respect you. To be free to be who you are, even if it's through your triggers, through your vulnerabilities, through your insecurities, that they respect you for who you are. And because we're all learning from one another, you know, and that's the beauty of it we all, if we're all free to be who we are, our authentic selves, we bring such uniqueness to this world. We don't need to feel like we're molding into somebody that we're not, because we shouldn't have to mold into anybody that we're not. We should be able to create our own beliefs, our own agreements for ourselves, free of judgment, free of ridicule and free of what anybody could tell us. And so that's the beauty of healing and transformation is that that's who you start becoming, is you?

Speaker 1:

this feeling and we're just taking a pause right now because I'm shifting the energies right now, for anyone who is tuned in, for anyone who is listening there, everything is energy and if you allow and if you receive, what I'm shifting with the energies are everything that is keeping you small, that is keeping you silent, and I don't know why. If it is, if it is okay to say this on this podcast, my hands are right now and I will say this because I think it's a word that shouldn't be shamed or shunned or disrespected, so I will say it. Yeah, my right hand is now on my pussy. Yeah, and there's nothing dirty about that word. That is a beautiful word. That is a beautiful word and part of us women reclaiming our worth. So, for some reason, as I'm shifting the energies, my right hand is placed there, planted there, and usually so what that means is the right is usually associated with the masculine energies holding what is feminine energy, or what is our divine feminine energy, or what is the seed of our power.

Speaker 1:

Guess, for the collective and who is ever listening to this podcast, I guess we are freeing, releasing, oh, I'm feeling some heavy energies that was heavy energies you felt it too that needed to be released so that you can transmute your pain for the love of jesus, transmute your pain into your purpose, into your power. I'll reclaim. I'm doing this because we have, we women, you, you, you women who are listening to this podcast right now. My right hand is on my throat. You have been silenced. You've been silenced long enough. And that was just beauty.

Speaker 1:

Let's just release that and let's just shift that and you are strong and have the power to do that. But I will tell you, we cannot do it alone.

Speaker 3:

We need to hold another strong woman's hand that strong woman's.

Speaker 3:

We do because it's been too long since this generation of women feel that they need to be stuck and it is time to get unstuck. And you have to make that choice and you have to understand that you're so valuable, you're so worthy. And it's going to be rough and it's going to be hard, but it's going to be all worth it at the end. All those struggles, all that fight for yourself, it's going to be worth it, you know, and it's okay to be worth it. You know and it's okay to mention how you were loving your body.

Speaker 3:

That's one thing with women is we feel that in order to love our body, we need a man to be able to feel that love for our body. And so when you were, you know where your hand was and you were in. That masculine energy is basically telling us women that we do not need a man in order to connect with our body in a sexual way, that we have to know what it is that our body needs in order to bring that power. For when we are in a relationship, we know what our body needs, we know how to be intuitive with our body, and that's the beauty of it. We don't need somebody in order to love ourselves. We need to learn to love ourselves emotionally, sexually, spiritually, physically. We have to build that for ourselves. So, when we do have a partner, we know what is acceptable, we know what it is not acceptable, and so, therefore, we create safety for ourselves. And that's so important for us women, for us people, for just us, to know that love starts from within.

Speaker 1:

Such eloquent and beautiful words, and that is your gift. I told you that in our last session together. What a wonderful, beautiful gift. And I love how your intro to the podcast is Welcome to all my dear warriors, because that is what we are.

Speaker 3:

That is what we women also have the capacity to be is to be warriors of self-worth, right, self-worth revolution, baby it's time for it's time to start evolving into better people and to better us and to better me and to better you, because we need that in this world. There's so much beauty within us, but we haven't locked with a key and we are in charge of that key to open up that lock and let all that out that we've been holding in for so long. We don't need to be silent anymore. We don't need to hold our feelings inside anymore. It is time to open up that lock that you have been closing for yourself for so long to keep you safe.

Speaker 3:

That ego needs to be gone. That ego was there for you to keep you safe when you couldn't speak up for yourself when you were a child. That ego is no longer needed. When that ego pops up, it's just to let you know I am unsafe, and then you become then control of yourself and say okay, thank you for being there for me. Now it's time for you to go. It is time for me to work on myself. And so, yeah, yeah, it's time to use that key and unlock it. Unlock that lock. You don't need it anymore. It's time to shine. This time is yours now.

Speaker 1:

This time is ours now, to all the women listening. This time is yours now, is yours now and I would like to. I would like to thank you, vivi, for having me on this podcast and giving me this incredibly safe space to some people would watch this video and think, oh my goodness, look at that weirdo. Yeah, no, no, exactly, exactly, exactly that. People think no, exactly, no, exactly, exactly that. People think that is crazy. But actually that is actually our normal. If we communicated not with words, but with simply energy, yeah, and our actions are our energy.

Speaker 3:

Everything comes out by how we act with one another. Our words are empty without our actions that represent them. They're just words with no meaning behind it. So it's true, you have to really, really connect with how you act, with how you feel, and then the words will have meaning to it. Thank you, she's blowing everybody a kiss right now, just for those who are not seeing and listening, she's blowing you a kiss right now.

Speaker 1:

The next card that I wanted to show everybody, the message that is for us today.

Speaker 3:

It says am I consistently showing up? So the question is are you consistently showing up for yourself and that's what's important, no matter how hard things are, are you still showing up for yourself? Are you still doing the basic things in life as just brushing your teeth, that's? Just as simple as it could get. Just get up and brush your teeth. That's actually hard. It's very hard for some people to some people.

Speaker 1:

It might be the easiest, most natural thing in the world, but let me tell you, as someone who has gone through depressive states myself, I never realized the book girl wash your face. I finally understood it. It clicked like something as simple as that.

Speaker 3:

Washing your face, like brushing your teeth, I don't know, just being able to get up out of bed in the morning can be a big deal for those who are struggling are you willing to talk about what was your true awakening and how it led you to where you got to right now, just for our listeners who are going through their darkness right now, for them to understand that they're not alone?

Speaker 1:

I will. I will talk about my most recent spiritual awakening, because it's been a series I think it's never just one moment, but maybe like key milestones in our life and I will talk to you about the most recent one, where I was, yeah, I had a massive panic and anxiety attack and I was brought to the psychiatric ward of the mental hospital. And I don't know if you've read the book by Paolo Coelho, veronica Decides to Die. No, I have not. I'll put it on my list. Put it on your list, it's a very interesting read.

Speaker 1:

I read it years, years ago, but basically it was about this woman who was admitted to this psychiatric ward for mental health. Oh, it wasn't a mental health hospital, it was a normal hospital. Let's just get that clear. But it was for mental health. So, or the yeah, the mental health unit of that hospital. And, oh, the energy's just cleared. Thanks for that. Just just being able to tell my story and speak about it. Ah, that just proved how powerful it was, because immediately, the energy left my body in that moment, just just like that, as quickly as the snap of a finger.

Speaker 3:

So I saw you relax. I literally saw your shoulders just go. Yeah, oh my god, you came into yourself and just you just completely relaxed as soon as you were going to start talking about it. That's why it's so important to talk about what we have inside. There's nothing to be shameful of mind blown right now, okay, okay.

Speaker 1:

So I'm still feeling it a little bit in my feet, so maybe I can release that as well while I tell my story. So let me go try and tell a bit about my story. So it was a massive panic and anxiety attack that led me there. I was triggered by another. For me for other people it's nothing, but for me it was a trauma that I lived out in my childhood and that I had just healed and then it got triggered again. So maybe it was not completely healed and just the pain, just the pain that I re-experienced when it happened again, when it happened again, was to me felt like I can't go through this again.

Speaker 1:

This is too painful for me and me releasing that pain through my body and what I do, it's going to look crazy Because shit. And can I just say shit for a moment, because shit is the word that that is accurate for it. Yeah, you can say shit. And I just have to say, because one of the things I'm here to heal as well is good girl conditioning. So, yes, okay explain it. Oh conditioning, oh yeah, yes, Okay, explain it.

Speaker 1:

Oh, conditioning, oh okay, come on, if you will just give me, allow me to shift some of that. Oh, it feels much better. And you took a sip of water too. So that was you cleansing, helping to cleanse the energies. Okay, okay, cleanse the energies, okay. Okay, I guess there was some. There was some good girls in the room ready to shed a bit of that conditioning right about then and right about now. So, yeah, it's okay to say shit. It's okay to say shit.

Speaker 3:

yeah, it feels good we go through shit in this world right, it is shit. You know it. Just it honestly is. So I'm like there is nothing wrong with saying shit, it's completely imperfectly, okay, oh yeah, I like that frequency now when we say shit.

Speaker 1:

I love that frequency. That's a frequency feels amazing. So, yeah, and I'm sighing and taking a big sigh of relief because that is shit that I do not want to ever experience again. Yeah, and so I feel it has to be said, it was a rejection from my second family. And no, no hate, no shame, none of that. It's just me having to tell my story and speak my truth right, without ill intent and harm to anybody. So, yeah, to be rejected by people you consider as family, that was my big trauma and pain point.

Speaker 1:

And to have it happen again with my second family was, yeah, drove me pretty much batshit cray cray, although I will say it did drive me batshit cray cray, but not to say that I was not in control of my emotions, because I very much was. But you know how, what I do and what we do as somatic release practitioners right, and this is also a big way, how we help people we have to feel to heal, we have to move our bodies in order to heal. So I had to cry it out. Yeah, I had to scream. I had to scream at the top of my lungs, not at somebody. But I just had to release all that anger inside of me, all that anger of all my love being rejected, huh, all that anger of judgment being placed upon me that I felt was unfair, yeah, that I felt was misplaced, yeah, yeah, oh, my goodness and now you're being accepted, you know, and for being who you are and you're showing us who you truly are, and it's beautiful.

Speaker 3:

You know, I love the moment that we connected our energies, just connected with one another, and I accept you fully for who you are, how you feel. You're very raw. If I'm having a bad day, sometimes you'll just write to me and tell me I feel your energy, I feel something's going off, and I'm just like usually I'm having a pretty overwhelming day at that moment in time, so I'm just like, yeah, I'm a little bit off balance. Today it's just one of those days and usually I have to interrupt you there.

Speaker 1:

Usually I am too much for people, yeah, not, and I'm holding holding my hands like this, with one eye? Yeah, because we have to see. We have to see the truth. Oh, my goodness, there is nothing wrong with the symbol of a triangle and an eye in the middle. Okay, as, oh, my goodness, there's nothing wrong with that. Simple. It is not demonic, it is not satanic, no, okay. It is simply illumination, and illumination is of the light. Illumination is good, and this is why they shifted. They shifted the narrative, they they overturned the story. They made what was right, what was wrong, what was wrong, what is right. They twisted it to fool you, to fool you, to fool you so that you would not see, so that you would be afraid of seeing the truth, when really, all it is is nothing but the truth.

Speaker 3:

That's the beauty of it. Right is, if you tell me I'm having a low day, I'm not gonna go and say, no, right, I'm not having a low day. I'm gonna be like I'm in my truth, can I?

Speaker 1:

just say to my body yes, can I just say that is rare, because most people, or anyway the ones I have recently interacted with, were so in denial and there was such a big disconnect between how they were feeling and the voice and the truth that they were speaking out Like they would say I'm okay, when, oh my goodness, I could feel inside oh my God, girl, you are not.

Speaker 3:

I have learned. That was me in the past. That was completely me. I came out as this happy, I'm okay person, as this happy I'm okay person. My life is, you know, diamonds and gold and all this great things, and that's how I presented myself and I walked around but inside I was dying. It was dark, it was painful, I felt like my chest was just sinking in tighter and tighter all the time and I cried and I felt alone and it was miserable. But with this year I have learned to connect with my body and I'm not always going to align with people and other people may not agree with me, and that's okay.

Speaker 3:

You know, I've come to understand that I'm not here for everybody and I'm not everybody's person, and that's okay. I'm not going to change who I am because I don't want to ever lose myself again. You know, I love who I'm becoming and I love that. I am appreciating myself, even through my quirks and my silliness. And sometimes I don't understand a joke and I can't laugh because I will tell you I am so sorry but I just don't understand that.

Speaker 3:

You know, and I'm not ashamed of saying it. I'm not ashamed to speak up if something feels uncomfortable and I'm not ashamed to walk away if it's just not a safe place for me, and so if I'm not okay, I will tell you I'm not okay. If I need to cry, I will cry. I'm not ashamed of anything I went through in my life, not from my childhood to my adulthood. I have come to understand that, who I am as a person now. I had to go through that in life because now I appreciate myself, I value myself and I know myself. And yes, I'm sensitive and yes, I could be, and I love that.

Speaker 1:

you are sensitive. You are perfect for me because you are sensitive.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, so I love that I'm able to connect myself and appreciate myself. You know, because a lot of times I could be out there and and I'm sure a lot of people out there people will tell you you're sensitive or you're too emotional, and you take it as though there's something wrong with you and they're telling it to you to break you down and that's why they're telling you you're sensitive. That's what you're telling you. You're too emotional, but a lot of times it's just a projection of them not being able to connect with their own inner self, their own inner being, with their own emotions, with their own vulnerability, and so, therefore, you being able to connect with yourself. It's a threat. So don't change, do not stop being that sensitive person who's able to connect with others, who's able to empathize with others, because this is what we need in the world.

Speaker 1:

That is what we need in the world right now. In this world where there are wars, where there is chaos, where there is craziness, my goodness, we need intuitive, sensitive individualsers, everyone. Oh, my goodness, there are so many people who are actually healers, who don't do that as a job. Okay, like predominantly, the earth is comprised of human beings who have the ability to be intuitive and empathetic and to heal other people, and this is a channeled message coming through for the collective right now, and I'm simply channeling, I guess, my guide. If you know lee harris, he calls his guys the z's. Have you heard of lee harris? No, he's an amazing channeler. So shout out to lee harris and everyone you can go, follow him on YouTube and check him out. He's an amazing, intuitive channeler. He calls his guys the Zs. So I call my guys the Vs, because my name is Victoria, although my nickname is Raya, so the Vs.

Speaker 1:

So, yeah, the channel message that wanted to come through was that we need people like you on this planet right now. People like you on this planet right now. We need your soft, gentle, loving, understanding, compassionate energies in this planet at this very moment in time, the antidote to all the wars and to everything that is going on in the craziness of this world is love, for love is the highest frequency. Love is of the highest frequency and therefore, if you take sides, if you say this side is better than this side, or I'm on this side, let's fight that side, you're really being of no help to anyone here. Take no side and stand for love, stand for compassion, stand for understanding, stand for inclusion, stand for diversity, stand for harmony, stand for understanding, stand for inclusion, stand for diversity, stand for harmony, stand for unity of humanity. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yes, that's so powerful, raya, because right now we all need that and I think a lot of people have lost connection with that through all the darkness and sadness and hatred that we're seeing right now, that a lot of people have lost that connection with one another, with and that's the beautiful thing about us being human is we came into this world to be able to connect and to understand. We are all made different for a reason in this world. If we were all made the same, it would be boring and I don't know about you right, like I wouldn't I wouldn't want to be in a boring world.

Speaker 3:

I love, I like a buffet, yeah, with lots of choices lots of flavors, lots of textures, lots of different.

Speaker 1:

lots of flavors, lots of textures, lots of different dimensions, just like food right.

Speaker 3:

We all got spice, we got sweetness, we all got spice.

Speaker 1:

I love that. We all got a bit of spice, and you got a little bit of sass too. I love that Sass and spice.

Speaker 3:

Yes. So it's like, if you think of it, we're all people you love food, because I know, I do, I do Doesn't Right. So if you think about it, we're all kind of like a different blend of food, the way we're put together.

Speaker 3:

I've never heard of that analogy before and the blends that we come along. Sometimes we need to be spicy, sometimes we need to be sweet, sometimes we're a combination of both, but the beauty of it is that we are able to appreciate what we're feeding our soul and our body with. And so, yeah, I think it's beautiful if you thought of it that way. We all are a blend of uniqueness, a spices of sweets, you know. I mean, I just had to take notes.

Speaker 1:

I just had to pause for a moment and take notes and I was like we can be sweet and spicy at the same time. I'm gonna use that from now on. Yeah, honey, I'm feeling a bit spicy right now, so you might wanna. You know, unless you're ready to handle a little bit of heat, you might want to move away a little bit. Move away a little bit. I can get a bit fiery when I'm spicy it's true, but that's what humans are.

Speaker 3:

We are all emotional creatures. We feel angry for a reason, we feel sad for a reason, we have joy, we have happiness. It's how we use all of our emotions in a healthy way.

Speaker 1:

We're not just fun, though to be able to feel all of those emotions like a roller coaster right with twists and turns yeah, that's the thing.

Speaker 3:

Life is not supposed to be linear. We're supposed to be going through ups and downs in order to figure ourselves out. If not, we wouldn't value things if everything was given to us perfect and everything was so easy to attain, how would we be bringing value to it?

Speaker 3:

how would we respect it and value it? We can't. You know, everything is worth fighting for, and that's our, that's even us. We need to fight for ourselves as well, and so, yeah, it's. There's nothing wrong with with being different people Like it's time to be different, because we bring something special to the table. All our friends. When I'm sitting with my friends, if you see all of us, we're all a blend of beauty.

Speaker 1:

I love that. Can I meet your friends sometime?

Speaker 3:

Oh yes, they would love to. Nobody is the same. We're all unique, and that's the beauty of it.

Speaker 1:

And you know, maybe it would be a perfect time to show everyone the third card so the third card is do I believe I am worthy?

Speaker 3:

that's a beautiful question. Do I believe I am worthy? You are worthy, you?

Speaker 1:

You are deserving. You are loved. Start seeing the divine beauty within you and go out and claim the life you have dreamt up. Your crown has been bought and paid for.

Speaker 2:

Put it on your head and wear it. You are worthy of it all. I think a lot of us need to start looking at ourselves in the mirror and start recognizing our worth and start stop living in your past that has caused you so much hurt and start recognize that nobody could have overcome the things that you have overcome.

Speaker 3:

Nobody could have overcome the things that you have overcome, and it only takes you being strong and recognizing that you are worthy of so much. And so just that simple acknowledgement that you've overcome so much makes you realize that you are worthy, and so that's why it's so important, when you wake up in the morning, give gratitude for your breath of life and get up and look at yourself in that mirror and tell yourself how worthy you are and feel it, genuinely feel it, because you are.

Speaker 1:

You just are. I love mirror work by louise hay. Have you heard of it? No, explain it please. So basically, you take a handheld mirror, or it can be a big mirror, whatever mirror you're able to find, and daily, or as often as you can, maybe several times in a day, you actually look at yourself in the mirror and, instead of picking her apart, you actually really look into her eyes and really look at her and notice, notice what you say and like you can tell her and try to really feel it Like I love you. I'm sorry I didn't, I wasn't there for you, I'm sorry I neglected you. I'm sorry I don't see your worth at the moment, but maybe one day I will and I love you and I thank you for putting up with me and I've put you through so much and thank you for still being this vessel, this avatar, this meat suit that I can walk on this earth with and experience all of life, with the beauty, the bad, the ugly, the sad, the messy and all the moments in between. Wow.

Speaker 3:

That's so true. I love the part where you say that to be thankful and to forgive yourself for being there and to look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself I forgive you for not being there when I needed you to be there, but I am here for you now. And just being able to look at yourself in the mirror like that and say those words back to yourself because that's who you're saying it to it's so empowering. Right to know that you are the creator of your life. You create your life. Now You're in charge and that's what makes you a warrior your life.

Speaker 1:

Now you're in charge, and that's what makes you a warrior.

Speaker 1:

That's what makes you an excellent life coach, because you'll be able to guide and lead so many women and help to empower them and liberate them, set them free yes, yes yes, it's time to just take in the fresh air, wake up and know that everything matters, that everything that you do matters, you know, and yeah, it's beautiful and everyone out there who's listening who may need a bit of help with releasing heavy emotions that they hold, like if they've been really angry for years or, you know, really sad and haven't processed grief, or basically, if they're feeling stuck and they're ready to release emotions. I would love the honor and opportunity to work with them, if they will let me.

Speaker 3:

That's beautiful and I'll make sure to add you, you know, and everything that you bring to them. I would like you to end with maybe a breath work or something that you could connect with so people could hear you and feel you. I would love for you to be able to bring that energy out to our listeners.

Speaker 1:

I would be happy to do that. So I call myself a few different things. One of them is an emotional release and breakthrough coach, so I work best with people who are ready for massive transformation in their lives and who have a lot of negativity stuff pent up, emotions in their cells and DNA that they are finally ready to release. So sometimes well, not just sometimes we have inherited trauma and pain, and that's not the fault of our ancestors. The conditions of the world they lived in were very much harder than ours in many ways At least for me, that's true and we we carry it with us and we have this ability to free us, to free them too, with the healing that we do on ourselves. So taking all the lessons that all the pain brought us, but transforming and transmuting that pain into a power, so I can help people utilize their emotions which is a gift and really learn how to work with them in a really powerful way. So I'm just trying to think of how to end this episode, let's see.

Speaker 1:

So I am also a soul and a body love coach, let's see. I'm just looking at my notes over here of things that I wanted to make sure that I got out on this episode. So, if you may allow me to read, if that's okay, go ahead. So, as a soul and body love coach, I teach people to tune into their soul and their real feelings and true aspirations. Many times, we set goals and dream dreams that we think are ours but are really not. I help you weed out what it is you truly wish so you can pivot your life and start going in that direction. And, as a body love coach, I will teach you how to fall back in love with your body and yourself and reclaim your worth. So I wish to invite you to book a healing, transformational session with me. Oh yeah, if you don't mind, would you be able to tell our audience, like how our session, how your session with me went, and like give honest, raw feedback right here, right now?

Speaker 3:

Sure, okay. So as a child, it was really hard for me to release my voice, and it's something that I'm still working on, and so that's my throat chakra, and I was silenced for so long as a child. If I were to say anything that I felt was wrong, or if I were to speak up for myself, let's just say I would get punished. My voice did not have any value.

Speaker 3:

Growing up as a child and I'm sure that a lot of people who are listening right now I'm very proud Latina and in the Latina culture, sometimes we may grow up with men who you could be your father, your stepfather and uncle, who you could be your father, your stepfather and uncle, and a lot of times women's voices don't matter, and so I grew up in an environment like that, where my voice didn't much have any say so, and so now as an adult, it was very hard for me to release my voice and I had my throat chakra blocked and every time I try to speak it would shut down and I couldn't let out my words.

Speaker 3:

I try to let my words out, but it was very, very difficult for me and it was as though somebody was holding my throat and just kind of squeezing it together and saying, no, you're not allowed to speak. No, you're not going to say that, no, you're gonna embarrass me be say that, you know. And so, working with Raya, we went through a lot of sessions of me doing inner breathing and connecting with my inner soul and my inner body and just doing a lot of yelling and, as she has said, I don't remember you, yelling at anybody?

Speaker 3:

Oh, I was yelling. We don't yell at anybody. It's just a way of us releasing all that tension. Us releasing all that tension, all that that is holding us back, and just yelling it out at the top of your lungs and just releasing it and what it does in return, you feel your body's tension relax and you start becoming more relaxed with every breath you take and every breath and screaming let out, because that's all the toxicity that you're holding inside of yourself and you're intentionally and consciously releasing it and letting it go. And so that's the power of breathing go. And so that's the power of breathing because you're able to connect with your inner self and let go what doesn't resonate with you, because a lot of times we don't realize that we're holding so much inside of us that it's holding us back.

Speaker 3:

For me, it's my childhood trauma, that I went through my child abuse, that I went through my child abuse, that I went through that I was unable to let go of all that discomfort. I had the fear of shame, the fear of self-doubt, the fear of what are people going to think if I let my voice out, because that's what I grew up believing that my voice didn't have value. So, therefore, why should I let it out now? And so I did with Raya. And every day is a work in progress. It's not like you have one session, all of a sudden, a miracle will happen, you're like, oh, I'm okay. No, it's a work in progress, and every day you have to become very conscious of your decisions that you make in life and letting your throat out at chakra out.

Speaker 3:

It doesn't only mean speaking words of inspiration and motivation, encouragement to others. It means that you're also able to speak these positive words to yourself. You know and truly feel them for yourself, because I would be the first one to tell myself I'm not worthy, I'm not enough, I'm not deserving. I can't get that, you know, and I am not in that space anymore. And so Raya has been such a great, great being in my life and where she's helped me to connect with myself deeper. And so every time I do let my voice out, raya, and I say things and I'm more raw and I'm starting to be more comfortable, I think of you and think of how you tell me Vivian, your voice matters, you're going to make a change in this world. You need to believe that you can and you will, and so that's what I've been doing, and yeah, so I'm not holding myself back anymore. I do my breath work and it helps me, and when I'm not, I'm disconnecting.

Speaker 1:

I consciously become aware of why I am so what I did for you was actually a voice activation and liberation session, as well as a body love, free movement session, combining the voice and the body and the breath. So that's why it was quite powerful.

Speaker 3:

It was indeed. I mean, I was dancing with my body, I was letting go. For those of you that know, I have a dog. She was very in tune with us to that day, and it's really nice because you know pets feel your energy. They truly do, and so after my session. They get sick if you're sick.

Speaker 3:

Yes, so after my energy, let's just say she slept and she was good, you know. And so that's a testament. Yeah, because when you dance, people don't realize. When you dance you're connecting with your inner soul. You're like free to move your hands, to move your feet, to be silly, to be weird, to just not care and just be you, you and your body, right, and it's like that's the beauty of it. A lot of people forget that your body is like your temple to do and feel and act. And don't lose that intuition. Be very intuitive of what your body is telling you, you know. Be very intuitive of what your body is telling you, you know, and don't lose that connection, because if your body tells you it's unsafe, more than likely it's unsafe.

Speaker 1:

I would like to end with a quote from Ali Michelle's work. She is an amazing human being, writer and performer of the spoken word, and I just posted one of her. I have no words, I have posted one of her. Hee, that's bad, I just blanked. Anyway, basically, what I wanted to say is I just want to read something out to you before we end the show. So here it goes.

Speaker 1:

And if numb is the new normal, then let me be the weird one. Let me be so moved that the simple sight of dawn breaks the silence of my soul in celebration. Let me become a blank canvas for life to paint on, for I am no longer interested in drawing perfect lines to live trapped within. Let me be forever changed by the stories that tumble from your trembling lips. Let me walk down the streets feeling naked from the inside out, because I am no longer covering up who I am. Let me feel all of it, the raw and chaotic richness of life, because normal would forever steal the light that dances in my eyes, the light that dances in my eyes.

Speaker 3:

That is so beautiful. That's a great way to end this episode and I appreciate you, raya, from the bottom of my heart for coming here, being raw, being vulnerable, sharing some of your journey with us and also how you bring such great energy to others. I will be putting the information in my notes for people to be able to connect with you, and I really appreciate you and love you and thank you so much for everything. I'm sending you my love, I'm sending you my kisses from here, from California, all the way to Australia.
