Honoring Growth & Embodied Wisdom with Amanda Beatty: A Conversation on Healing & Integration

In today's episode, I sit down with 💓 self-love queen ✨ Amanda Beatty to dive deep into the often-overlooked phase of integration—the space between healing and embodied wisdom. We explore what it means to create space for growth, clear energy leaks, and reconnect with your inner child in a way that allows for true transformation in the present moment.

In a world that glorifies constant upleveling, integration is one of the most undervalued yet essential pieces of healing. We unpack why slowing down, reflecting, and truly digesting our experiences is crucial for stepping into our fullest expression.

In this episode, we explore:
✔ The significance of integration and reflection in personal growth
✔ How energy leaks impact your well-being and how to identify them
✔ The empowerment of inner child work and what it looks like in practice
✔ Why celebrating everyday wins leads to deeper fulfillment
✔ The role of community and support in the healing journey

Here is the image referenced in the episode of the powerful Burning Man art installation that beautifully illustrates the essence of the inner child connection. (Photo included here!)

✨ Want more? I joined Amanda on her podcast to chat about my own self-discovery journey and the magic of connecting with like-minded souls along the way. If you’d love to hear more about how we met and the power of healing in community, take a listen here.

Amanda Beatty: thank you for having me.

3
00:00:10.500 --> 00:00:16.700
Adriana Douglas: I'm excited to continue our conversation. We had a lovely conversation on the deer. Diary.

4
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:22.959
Adriana Douglas: Podcast what was it last week, 2 weeks ago, 2 weeks ago? Yeah, that was a good juicy conversation.

5
00:00:23.050 --> 00:00:33.770
Adriana Douglas: Yeah, like, so if anybody, if anybody is curious to kind of hear a longer, a longer story of how we met. what we've been up to

6
00:00:34.250 --> 00:00:46.189
Adriana Douglas: definitely go check it out. It should be out soon, or, if not, it may already be out depending on when you're listening to this. But it's a great conversation, and this is definitely

7
00:00:46.630 --> 00:00:58.939
Adriana Douglas: we'll we'll take we'll take a spin down some some different paths on this one, but I'm sure there'll be parallels, and also like just kind of like, 2.0. So so check that out.

8
00:00:59.310 --> 00:01:09.729
Adriana Douglas: But, Amanda, thank you so much for being here. I'm so glad that we can that we can jam and and kind of open up, open up the conversations that we have offline.

9
00:01:10.020 --> 00:01:11.510
Amanda Beatty: Yes, but

10
00:01:11.630 --> 00:01:16.660
Adriana Douglas: to the people listening so I'd love to hear a little bit about

11
00:01:16.810 --> 00:01:21.910
Adriana Douglas: what you're up to in your world and and dive in from there.

12
00:01:22.610 --> 00:01:30.229
Amanda Beatty: Oh, my gosh! What am I up to in my world as a as a Manigen in human design, like, where do I start?

13
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:36.630
So what am I up to in my world. I am in a space of

14
00:01:36.700 --> 00:01:47.469
Amanda Beatty: integration of sort of I don't know. We're like wrapping up the end of this year. It's October now, while we're recording this. And

15
00:01:47.570 --> 00:02:03.980
Amanda Beatty: this year was a lot, a lot of lessons, a lot of struggles, a lot of wisdom. And so I feel like, what do you do when you're in that space, right? Like I feel like sometimes we we don't stop long enough to celebrate our wins and

16
00:02:03.980 --> 00:02:21.170
Amanda Beatty: really get clarity on what the wisdom is that we're learning and like, why did I experience that? And why was that so hard for me? And and what patterns am I still getting tripped up on. So I'm in this like integration phase which feels

17
00:02:21.940 --> 00:02:35.400
Amanda Beatty: difficult and also really empowering to sort of zoom out and look at my life thus far and see how far I've come and see where I'm going and what gets to leave and what gets to stay, what's working? What's not

18
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:39.520
Amanda Beatty: so yeah, that that sort of feels like the energy that I'm in right now.

19
00:02:40.070 --> 00:02:51.639
Adriana Douglas: I love that. The the integration piece sometimes I feel like is not talked about enough and not really given, maybe as much

20
00:02:51.770 --> 00:02:53.470
Adriana Douglas: credit as it

21
00:02:53.630 --> 00:02:57.060
Adriana Douglas: could, because, like, we're constantly

22
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:59.049
Adriana Douglas: running to the next

23
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:15.270
Adriana Douglas: thing to heal sometimes in this space, and the next pattern, like what you're saying like, what patterns am I still getting tripped up on like, I'm the same way. And like, okay, there's this pattern in this one and this one and like and like, how am I gonna tackle it next? And like, what course is gonna like, get me to like.

24
00:03:15.570 --> 00:03:25.820
Adriana Douglas: do the thing and and over overcome it, and like integrate and like, I will release it. So the integration has been nice, because.

25
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:39.210
Adriana Douglas: taking the time to stop and and and take note. It's it's like a different energy to kind of slow down. Take note, reflect.

26
00:03:39.980 --> 00:03:42.529
Adriana Douglas: instead of like joining

27
00:03:44.270 --> 00:03:48.440
Adriana Douglas: another program just to like

28
00:03:48.970 --> 00:03:51.619
Adriana Douglas: heal the pattern. And like, that's not also that's like

29
00:03:52.180 --> 00:03:55.279
Adriana Douglas: a great way to approach it in some ways as well. It's just like.

30
00:03:55.850 --> 00:04:10.009
Adriana Douglas: we're just a pro. We're just talking about different energy right now. Right? This, like, yeah, I think sometimes we get into this pattern of like looking for the secret sauce, looking for the the magic key, looking for the missing puzzle piece. And

31
00:04:10.670 --> 00:04:14.889
Amanda Beatty: we we forget that it's it's it's within us already.

32
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.969
Amanda Beatty: you know. I mean, yeah, there are different ways

33
00:04:18.209 --> 00:04:43.599
Amanda Beatty: and different mentors and different programs and different, you know, coaching styles that you can learn new things. You know, it's like they. They say you hear the same thing 100 times, but it's like on that 100 and first time you're like, Oh, my God! I got it, it landed. And so it's it's definitely that energy, too, of like, I've heard this all before. And now I get to really sit with it and be with it, and

34
00:04:43.610 --> 00:04:49.680
Amanda Beatty: obviously still receiving support through it. Because I think that support is literally everything.

35
00:04:49.740 --> 00:05:00.720
Amanda Beatty:  But yeah, I do. I think we don't talk about integration enough, and it's such a huge part of it. It's that the energy of like forever a student

36
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:04.110
Amanda Beatty: kind of like it's like reminiscent of that.

37
00:05:04.150 --> 00:05:17.470
Amanda Beatty: and you don't have to always keep seeking for your healing, or the Aha's or the clarity like. Sometimes it is just already within. You just gotta sit still long enough to listen.

38
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:26.990
Adriana Douglas: Exactly. It's it's the sitting. It's the sitting, still part. It's like, it's okay. So I love. I love

39
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:35.899
Adriana Douglas: what what's coming up right now, the forever student energy. It's like, how can I be in the forever student energy?

40
00:05:36.640 --> 00:05:42.790
Adriana Douglas: Yet like in certain phases of life. not

41
00:05:44.200 --> 00:05:48.409
Adriana Douglas: the like needing the next

42
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.110
Amanda Beatty: breakthrough.

43
00:05:51.620 --> 00:06:02.690
Adriana Douglas: but still be forever student like, how can I be a student and still not be like actively, necessarily like learning new stuff like, how can I just process

44
00:06:04.270 --> 00:06:07.279
Adriana Douglas: process whatever is coming up

45
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:20.650
Adriana Douglas: and, like you were saying like, it takes sometimes like so long for things to land like you hear it over and over and over again. I think that's partly probably why, for some of my journey at least, like I just kept taking courses because it was like

46
00:06:20.810 --> 00:06:22.310
Adriana Douglas: more things would land.

47
00:06:22.510 --> 00:06:26.960
Adriana Douglas: more plan, things that didn't land before, like they just landed differently.

48
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:28.420
Adriana Douglas: But it's like

49
00:06:28.860 --> 00:06:37.079
Adriana Douglas: the other thing that I that  I heard you say it was like, it's like, what patterns am I still getting tripped up on? So it kind of

50
00:06:37.350 --> 00:06:40.640
Adriana Douglas: this integration piece allows you to

51
00:06:43.440 --> 00:06:45.479
Adriana Douglas: see what has like

52
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:49.910
Adriana Douglas: kind of fallen away and like what's still really active.

53
00:06:50.180 --> 00:06:56.729
Adriana Douglas: So it's yeah. It's more like being a student with yourself versus during an integration period versus like

54
00:06:56.960 --> 00:07:00.220
Adriana Douglas: someone else giving you more info.

55
00:07:00.280 --> 00:07:05.149
Adriana Douglas: But I support during it is still important. It's a lot to unpack.

56
00:07:05.450 --> 00:07:19.700
It is. It is. Well, yeah, support, I mean, support is everything cause even just like to soundboard my experience, or like what I'm going through sometimes, just even in that I can receive the clarity that I need. But yeah, there is. There is an aspect of

57
00:07:21.950 --> 00:07:29.990
Amanda Beatty: taking everything that you've learned everything. Oh, no, I'm sorry. Let me start over taking everything that you've experienced

58
00:07:30.820 --> 00:07:57.739
Amanda Beatty: externally, internally. What did you learn from it? Like? What are the takeaways? What are the pieces of wisdom within your experiences. And then what do you do with it? You know it's like it can just be this information that's floating around in in within your the ether, or in your head, or whatever, or do you take it and utilize it, and like, embody what you've learned, and

59
00:07:57.740 --> 00:08:14.680
Amanda Beatty: allow it to land deeper within you so that you can harness it the next time you go through an experience that feels similar, or you get triggered, or whatever what have you? I feel like I did that a lot during when we were on lockdown during Covid. I feel like

60
00:08:15.430 --> 00:08:19.580
Amanda Beatty: I learned a lot about myself, and then I just sort of like

61
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:37.130
Amanda Beatty: ignored it after we sort of opened up the world. And everything was like, Okay, thank God, that's done with. And it was like, no, no, no, no, no. So I've actually been revisiting pieces of that, too. And that was years ago. So it's like, Yeah, sometimes we do just have to sort of slow down and zoom out at like.

62
00:08:37.620 --> 00:08:46.869
Amanda Beatty: Where is the wisdom here? And how can I really harness it? To become the best version of myself in the process

63
00:08:47.520 --> 00:09:00.150
Adriana Douglas: what you were just saying about about lockdown, and like kind of revisiting some info, something that a mentor once once shared with me, which at the time, and still today, was like really

64
00:09:00.650 --> 00:09:05.640
Adriana Douglas: valuable for me, like just for my own peace of mind was like, if you

65
00:09:06.020 --> 00:09:15.569
Adriana Douglas: it was something along the lines of like if you don't have the answer yet, like you don't need to know yet. And so like, it's funny because a lot of these things like we're saying like, have

66
00:09:16.070 --> 00:09:21.629
Adriana Douglas: taken in sometimes and sometimes like immediate, but sometimes like years to like.

67
00:09:22.410 --> 00:09:23.690
actually

68
00:09:23.950 --> 00:09:24.680
Adriana Douglas: like

69
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:29.140
Adriana Douglas: kind of get you let it in like it comes in. And you're like.

70
00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:38.300
Adriana Douglas: Oh. whereas like, if you're in that like need to know energy like I need to know it now. which I find myself there

71
00:09:38.350 --> 00:09:45.589
Adriana Douglas: a lot, cause I'm very impatient about that. I'm like, what's the lesson? I'm like. I need to know it right now.

72
00:09:45.880 --> 00:09:50.519
But it doesn't work that way, cause you have to like, live. You have to like, live the lesson.

73
00:09:50.810 --> 00:09:57.830
Adriana Douglas: Yeah, that's something that I was kind of like not getting in the beginning. I was like, if I just like learn about it like I don't have to like

74
00:09:58.330 --> 00:10:03.000
Adriana Douglas: like go through it. but like you

75
00:10:03.330 --> 00:10:15.559
Amanda Beatty: live it by going through it. Exactly. Yeah, exactly. Well. And I think this year for me personally was one of the most challenging years of my life.

76
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:29.360
Amanda Beatty: So it was like this year as opposed to any other year. I was like, Okay, we really need to like, see what's here for us, because I don't want to relive a lot of that again. So like, let's really see if we can find

77
00:10:29.460 --> 00:10:50.890
Amanda Beatty: where we need to improve what works, what's not working and where I get to. And I also think, too. when you can sort of zoom out and look at the bigger picture of what you've experienced and where the patterns are, and where you've shown up as your highest self, and where maybe you did not.

78
00:10:50.980 --> 00:11:03.619
Amanda Beatty: there's also a level in, and I know, we talk about this often. There's a level, a level of creating space in your body, in your mind, in your soul. And your you know, environment of like.

79
00:11:03.680 --> 00:11:11.569
Amanda Beatty: okay, th, that stuff that I went through like we're done with that. Now I'm I'm no longer choosing to react

80
00:11:12.150 --> 00:11:28.009
Amanda Beatty: to conversations to people like like we're done with that. And so that opens up a ton of space, too, so that I can step into the version of me that feels more at peace and ease, and like

81
00:11:28.990 --> 00:11:31.860
Amanda Beatty: I can relax a little more.

82
00:11:33.390 --> 00:11:38.929
Adriana Douglas: I love that The creating a space and

83
00:11:39.560 --> 00:11:47.670
Adriana Douglas: something that we've been chatting through together in embodied wisdom is the

84
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:48.700
Adriana Douglas: just like.

85
00:11:49.090 --> 00:11:54.479
Adriana Douglas: where are you leaking the energy? So you just talked about having like a really difficult year this year.

86
00:11:54.590 --> 00:12:02.959
Adriana Douglas: and kind of what I'm hearing from you is that like you. we're really looking at your energy

87
00:12:03.190 --> 00:12:09.649
Adriana Douglas: and like, where? Where was it leaking? Where? Where were you like super firm and like.

88
00:12:10.150 --> 00:12:13.719
Adriana Douglas: where were you in between? Maybe so like I would love to hear

89
00:12:13.780 --> 00:12:21.999
Adriana Douglas: about that. Maybe you could explain to the audience like kind of what it even means to feel like you have leaky energy, like kind of conceptually and

90
00:12:22.730 --> 00:12:25.230
Adriana Douglas: and what that? What that process looked like for you

91
00:12:26.010 --> 00:12:28.450
Amanda Beatty: sure, absolutely

92
00:12:29.800 --> 00:12:41.119
Amanda Beatty: So while I'll start at the very beginning embodied wisdom was this. Aha! That I had while I was meditating some day of like I really one day I was. I really wanted to

93
00:12:41.380 --> 00:12:55.209
Amanda Beatty: create this intimate little container and walk women through this exact process that I'm doing. I'm like, live in the flesh, in the arena with you like doing the work with you? And I thought that that was really powerful. And it's like.

94
00:12:56.150 --> 00:13:09.819
Amanda Beatty: II think in that the first thing that sort of came, and we're just like I'm flying by my seat of my pants with this, with this experience, this journey, and like, oh, I have to do this every year at the end of the year like this is big.

95
00:13:10.040 --> 00:13:20.700
Amanda Beatty: And so this is like my my trial run. And I'm trying to navigate and think about like, okay, what's really needed here, like we zoomed out.

96
00:13:20.820 --> 00:13:41.330
Amanda Beatty: We looked at our year. We set our intentions for the remainder of the year. What do we desire? How do we want to show up? What do we want to let go of and like the one thing that just kept coming up over and over and over again is like making space. And how do we make space in our life for more of the good. Well, we gotta get rid of some of the the yuck.

97
00:13:41.580 --> 00:13:44.909
and in that it's like, Okay, how do I do that?

98
00:13:45.140 --> 00:13:56.839
Amanda Beatty: And a while back I was in a program, and the woman talked about ceiling, leaky energy tabs and I was like. is that like the the meme where you talk about like a woman's. Mine is

99
00:13:57.310 --> 00:14:08.710
Amanda Beatty: like a hundred 50 different Google tabs open. And there's music playing in the background, and you don't know where it's coming from, like, it's that energy of like. If I have

100
00:14:09.020 --> 00:14:15.369
Amanda Beatty: my energy open, extended, like, vulnerable to

101
00:14:15.490 --> 00:14:17.600
people and

102
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:29.250
Amanda Beatty: projects and creations and commitments. And like. I'm just over committed and like undernourished.

103
00:14:29.580 --> 00:14:45.840
Amanda Beatty: Then that's a problem. That's a problem. Because I'm I'm committing to too many things. I'm reacting. I end up reacting to all of these things, I end up giving away my power to these things. They're just taking up space in my, in my mind.

104
00:14:45.910 --> 00:14:47.070
Amanda Beatty: And

105
00:14:47.420 --> 00:15:00.970
Amanda Beatty: how do we? How do we clear it up? First we got to get clear on, like, what exactly is leaking into our energy. You know. What are we? What situations are we attaching ourselves to? Where we could just set a boundary

106
00:15:01.230 --> 00:15:18.160
Amanda Beatty: and just have the space to just walk away, you know. So there's so many different ways in which we all have leaky energy. You know whether we're people pleasers or we over commit. And we're committing to things that are actually really a no for us.

107
00:15:18.750 --> 00:15:21.669
Amanda Beatty: So yeah, I just.

108
00:15:22.880 --> 00:15:35.320
Amanda Beatty: I'll give you a quick example. This morning I before this interview I was craving this French pastry, and I've been craving it for weeks now. And I was like.

109
00:15:35.420 --> 00:15:45.609
II keep thinking about. This is leaky energy. I mean, it's a very silly example, very surface level. But it's a perfect example, like I kept thinking about this pastry and like.

110
00:15:45.850 --> 00:15:47.330
It looks so good.

111
00:15:47.550 --> 00:16:02.739
Amanda Beatty: I wanted it. I wanted it like. I wanted to honour myself, but I had to drive out of my way, and should I go, should I not? I don't have the time. Oh, that's really frivolous to go that far out of your way to all of the excuses. But it just kept coming up and coming up, and it's like, Oh, my gosh, go get the pastry!

112
00:16:02.990 --> 00:16:05.039
Amanda Beatty: What are you nuts like?

113
00:16:05.180 --> 00:16:07.130
Amanda Beatty: And I did. And it was like

114
00:16:07.330 --> 00:16:09.400
Amanda Beatty: that first bite was like.

115
00:16:11.050 --> 00:16:17.089
Amanda Beatty: Okay. space. We got it like. that's not taking up space in my mind anymore.

116
00:16:17.710 --> 00:16:34.010
Amanda Beatty: So it's a silly example. But that's what I mean. Yeah, I love it. I love it. And as you're saying that I'm like, I am the offender that has 23 tabs open on my phone and safari, I cannot stop like I'm better about it on the computer. Now to be like, let me re

117
00:16:34.290 --> 00:16:38.309
Adriana Douglas: turn my computer off every now it's like, how often do we turn the computer off? I'm always like.

118
00:16:38.390 --> 00:16:41.560
Adriana Douglas: So I'm with you on that

119
00:16:41.680 --> 00:16:47.099
Adriana Douglas: And the tabs being open to our brain like even like the pastry example is perfect. Cause that's like

120
00:16:47.340 --> 00:17:01.979
Adriana Douglas: something you want to do right like. So imagine, if, like, something that you want to do is taking up kind of like that leaky energy space, like all the stuff you don't want to do is like is like heavy baggage in a way. Yeah.

121
00:17:02.050 --> 00:17:04.480
Adriana Douglas: like I find myself for sure, even with

122
00:17:04.710 --> 00:17:17.760
Adriana Douglas: sometimes with with tasks that I don't like as much like it'll make me leak, cause I'll just be like I don't want to do them, but then I'll just constantly, constantly be thinking about them like I have to do these things. I don't want to do

123
00:17:17.940 --> 00:17:28.030
Adriana Douglas:  and it's just like, if you had just spent the 20 min doing it like you wouldn't be here. And that's a probably different different conversation and of itself. But it's important to note that, like

124
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:35.360
Adriana Douglas: the good and the quote unquote, bad, like leaky energy's leaky energy. like.

125
00:17:35.500 --> 00:17:50.639
Amanda Beatty: Yeah, absolutely. And there's so many different, you know, whether it's organizing your house or decluttering your house, or setting boundaries with your partner or your children? You know, honoring your yeses and your nose, setting aside like

126
00:17:50.900 --> 00:17:53.230
Amanda Beatty: UN committed.

127
00:17:53.450 --> 00:18:02.530
Amanda Beatty: devoted like non-negotiable time to dedicate to your self care and your Rituals and Routines and Practices like

128
00:18:02.850 --> 00:18:15.549
Amanda Beatty: when you, when you know you really want to do that thing like, for example, meditating like, I'm like, I want to get up every morning, and I want to meditate for an hour, and when I don't. because I choose to sleep in sometimes. That's okay. And then other times. I'm like

129
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:32.179
Amanda Beatty: thinking about it all day like you better do tomorrow. You better. You should have done it today like you. You know that this is beneficial for you. You know that you feel good, and it's like, yes, there's a little bit of that like shamy energy there. But it's also this like drain. It's taking up too much of my space, whereas

130
00:18:32.450 --> 00:18:36.290
Amanda Beatty: if I just get up early, and now I have been for the last couple of weeks.

131
00:18:37.210 --> 00:18:41.100
Amanda Beatty: I feel so good like. I know that that's good for me.

132
00:18:42.160 --> 00:18:45.320
Amanda Beatty: so I need to just do it and honor that.

133
00:18:45.660 --> 00:18:48.710
Amanda Beatty: so that I'm not dwelling in the you should have.

134
00:18:50.490 --> 00:18:51.930
I think, too like.

135
00:18:52.170 --> 00:18:57.230
Adriana Douglas: when setting up like the things that will make you feel good, right cause. I think

136
00:18:57.270 --> 00:19:01.940
Adriana Douglas: one of the things that that we've been chatting on is like

137
00:19:02.430 --> 00:19:08.289
Adriana Douglas: celebrating our wins and like, how do we feel good and like, it's so

138
00:19:08.420 --> 00:19:10.180
Adriana Douglas: interesting to me that

139
00:19:10.760 --> 00:19:17.219
Adriana Douglas: that's that's a space that like, at least for me. And I think I think many of us like we can.

140
00:19:17.250 --> 00:19:27.799
Adriana Douglas: We can sort of sometimes a gravitate toward like what's not going right, you know. But like the celebrating the winds like kind of

141
00:19:28.590 --> 00:19:37.749
Adriana Douglas: changes, your energy, and into creating and cultivating like a more spacious, spacious, spacious space. Right?

142
00:19:38.760 --> 00:19:47.399
Amanda Beatty: Yeah, we're you talked about it. You know. I don't remember exactly what you said, but like we're always busy going on moving on to the next and on the next, and on the next thing. And it's like.

143
00:19:48.450 --> 00:19:49.650
Amanda Beatty: actually.

144
00:19:50.220 --> 00:20:03.260
Amanda Beatty: what if you were to slow down just a little bit more, and acknowledge how far you've come. Acknowledge over. II saw a quote a couple weeks ago, and it said.

145
00:20:04.370 --> 00:20:13.930
Amanda Beatty: the present version of Oh, no! The past version of me is so proud of the present version of me because she used to get tripped up on that.

146
00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:33.400
Amanda Beatty: And it's like, Oh, my gosh, yeah, I can think of so many examples where I used to get really tripped up on. you know. Maybe it's a conversation with my partner and I. And normally I'd get really reactive and attached to his opinions or his projections, or just like whatever and like that took up a lot of space inside of me. And it's like

147
00:20:34.290 --> 00:20:41.890
Amanda Beatty: sitting with it, integrating it, realizing where I'm giving my power away when I'm reacting like, what is the pattern?

148
00:20:42.080 --> 00:20:44.449
Amanda Beatty: And just being with

149
00:20:44.990 --> 00:20:51.360
Amanda Beatty: a different version of myself moving through that like a more empowered version of myself, of like we know better than that.

150
00:20:51.430 --> 00:20:58.770
Amanda Beatty: like we've learned this already, like, when is this pattern going to be done with? And then being finally done with it? And then you can look back and go.

151
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:11.099
Amanda Beatty: Oh, my gosh! Now, when this thing happens, when this conversation happens. I'm grounded. I'm present. I'm in my power. I'm not reacting, you know, and to to zoom out and look at that and go.

152
00:21:11.410 --> 00:21:14.139
Amanda Beatty: Oh, my God! There's growth right there. Boom!

153
00:21:14.710 --> 00:21:26.040
Amanda Beatty: There is where I learned something. I integrated it, and then I I embodied the version of me who no longer gets chipped up over whatever that thing is.

154
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:40.910
Amanda Beatty: and that in in itself creates so much space, so much space for you to. you know, be your highest self, and be in the frequency of like your true essence, not the version of you that's

155
00:21:41.480 --> 00:21:45.669
Amanda Beatty: walking around triggered whenever you're partnering, you have conversations

156
00:21:47.610 --> 00:21:52.109
I love, I love that. And it. What it reminds me of is

157
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:53.810
Adriana Douglas: like

158
00:21:55.030 --> 00:22:05.099
Adriana Douglas: embodied wisdom, right? Which is the the program and and container that that you are actively running at this time.

159
00:22:05.640 --> 00:22:09.069
Adriana Douglas: and like the example you just gave about like.

160
00:22:09.810 --> 00:22:13.860
Adriana Douglas: really. in some of these more

161
00:22:13.990 --> 00:22:21.149
Adriana Douglas: day to day moments, whether it's with your partner at work like that that you stop and you make a different choice

162
00:22:21.210 --> 00:22:27.349
Adriana Douglas: like to me. That that is like super representative to me of like

163
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:38.339
Adriana Douglas: the creative journey is the creative journey is like making one choice after one choice after one choice, that, like, will ultimately lead you to like this, the the path that you desire

164
00:22:38.470 --> 00:22:43.389
Adriana Douglas: and and the thing that I found interesting this year, cause I actually would like

165
00:22:43.980 --> 00:22:50.540
Adriana Douglas: in my journal this year. I would write down like every few months, like what I thought were wins.

166
00:22:50.730 --> 00:22:55.060
Adriana Douglas: What I felt well, what I what I felt were wins, and and what I noticed this year

167
00:22:55.300 --> 00:22:59.790
Adriana Douglas: versus other years, where, like the winds were like.

168
00:23:00.630 --> 00:23:03.080
Adriana Douglas: you know 10

169
00:23:03.800 --> 00:23:19.049
Adriana Douglas: go for a walk like with just my own thoughts like that was a win for me. It wasn't like the insane goals that I set every single year. It was like those little things. But those little things

170
00:23:19.340 --> 00:23:21.190
Adriana Douglas: then made the goals like

171
00:23:21.260 --> 00:23:26.879
Adriana Douglas: that I set like easier to achieve. So it's like you think it's the goal. But it's actually like

172
00:23:27.050 --> 00:23:31.650
Adriana Douglas: these small, everyday moments that then you're like, Wow.

173
00:23:31.890 --> 00:23:42.279
Adriana Douglas: like I did that like like, I walked with my own thoughts, looking at nature like that was hard for me like. But like that, was the fulfilling goal versus like

174
00:23:42.470 --> 00:23:47.289
Adriana Douglas: launching. This podcast like don't go be wrong. This is. that's also an amazing goal.

175
00:23:47.410 --> 00:23:52.210
Adriana Douglas: And that's also. But it's like a Testament to like cleaning up the energy

176
00:23:52.360 --> 00:24:02.880
Adriana Douglas: like, if I hadn't cleaned up energy. And like. really, like, taken time to integrate, learn lessons, whatever like. it's much harder to get to the big thing.

177
00:24:03.250 --> 00:24:12.620
Amanda Beatty: Yeah, no. yeah. Absolutely along the way of making space and and integrating the lessons and really embodying the wisdom of

178
00:24:13.290 --> 00:24:30.549
Amanda Beatty: who you desire to be. It's it's the quote like you become who you're meant to be along the way. It's it's the journey. It's not the end result. Or you know, the other side of the bridge or the the top of the mountain. As soon as you get to the top of the mountain peak you look, and there's

179
00:24:30.990 --> 00:24:48.890
Amanda Beatty: 50 other mountains that you need to to climb, you know. So. But it's like, who did you become in the process of getting up at this mountain? And yeah, this. This would still be like an idea in your journal if you didn't make the space and make the decision to really

180
00:24:49.410 --> 00:24:53.639
Amanda Beatty: put yourself out there and lean into an edge and and do it. Yeah.

181
00:24:54.330 --> 00:25:01.000
Adriana Douglas: I think I think something that that also, as we've been talking, I've been thinking about in terms of like

182
00:25:02.230 --> 00:25:03.950
Adriana Douglas: cleanup energy.

183
00:25:04.850 --> 00:25:07.089
Adriana Douglas: like celebrating

184
00:25:07.120 --> 00:25:19.610
Adriana Douglas: recognizing patterns like recognizing when you're in something that's that's also really important. Something that I learned. And I think this was from Mark Groves and create the love?

185
00:25:20.090 --> 00:25:26.360
Adriana Douglas: I think it's from one of his courses. It was like, Where are you being like the red flag, or like the green flag

186
00:25:26.370 --> 00:25:31.230
Adriana Douglas: like? And I thought I was like fascinating. So that's something that as we've been talking about, I was like, this is kind of like.

187
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:40.719
Adriana Douglas: this is like kind of along that the lines of like being the green flag like, where are you acting like something that would? You'd be like? That's a red flag like, where are you being

188
00:25:40.780 --> 00:25:52.580
Adriana Douglas: the? I don't know why I just thought of it, but it reminded me of that. What we've been talking about, and that was something that I also was like. My mind was blown when that question, when that question was dropped in one of those courses I was like.

189
00:25:52.870 --> 00:25:59.620
Adriana Douglas: Oh, my God! Where am I being the red flag like you really have to stop and be like. Okay.

190
00:25:59.630 --> 00:26:09.940
Adriana Douglas: it's me like like, where am I holding myself back. Where am I in my own way? Where am I blocking myself from? Like moving forward on the journey?

191
00:26:10.820 --> 00:26:20.950
Amanda Beatty: Yeah. Yeah. And it's it's funny, too, because we all have. We all have our thing right, like our one thing, couple of things where it just

192
00:26:21.130 --> 00:26:29.469
Amanda Beatty: maybe we feel like we're forever gonna need to like get over. And it's not that we ever truly like. I mean, maybe we do. I don't know

193
00:26:30.070 --> 00:26:47.250
Amanda Beatty: truly. Get over whatever this thing is, but it's the onion layers. Right? You just you shed it one Aha! At a time. One. You know, breathwork practice at a time like I'm big into embodiment practices and breathwork practices, and

194
00:26:47.320 --> 00:26:48.550
and it's like

195
00:26:48.880 --> 00:27:01.549
Amanda Beatty: layer by layer. You come back to you, strip away the filter, the the muck, the yuck. the patterns, and you get to your true essence, and your true essence

196
00:27:02.010 --> 00:27:15.999
Amanda Beatty: is not a red flag. You know you're you're fully embodied in your power and and your purpose, and you feel inspired, and it's effortless. And your success, like all of that, everything that you desire like that's your true essence.

197
00:27:16.080 --> 00:27:28.949
Amanda Beatty: The red flag energy is just where you're giving your power away and where you're reacting, and where you're succumbing to, or allowing your inner child to throw her temper. Tantrum is what I always say

198
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:31.630
Adriana Douglas: that's such a good point.

199
00:27:31.750 --> 00:27:34.089
Adriana Douglas: like such a good point. It's like

200
00:27:34.260 --> 00:27:42.889
Adriana Douglas: the the whole idea. There's like that burning man image of like the 2

201
00:27:42.930 --> 00:27:48.389
Amanda Beatty: humans. And they have like their inner child inside. Have you ever seen it? Yes.

202
00:27:48.550 --> 00:28:02.279
Adriana Douglas: yeah, that is like what what I'm thinking of right now, of like  And it was so confusing, I think, as a concept for me in the beginning. Actually, maybe I'll ask you to explain it a little bit. The concept of

203
00:28:03.730 --> 00:28:04.570
Adriana Douglas: that.

204
00:28:05.620 --> 00:28:08.010
Adriana Douglas: It wasn't like me.

205
00:28:08.030 --> 00:28:13.009
Adriana Douglas: and air quotes running the show like there was like an inner child that was like

206
00:28:13.170 --> 00:28:16.069
Adriana Douglas: quite possibly in in different

207
00:28:16.740 --> 00:28:23.790
Adriana Douglas: life scenarios like coming out to to play I would love, maybe, if you could like.

208
00:28:23.810 --> 00:28:35.480
Adriana Douglas: chat about that for a second of like how. how, when we show up, we just need to be cognizant, that like there's, there's a whole person here, and there's also all of our

209
00:28:35.660 --> 00:28:40.670
Adriana Douglas: programming, whether you say it's societal, ancestral childhood.

210
00:28:40.780 --> 00:28:42.479
Adriana Douglas: But that like

211
00:28:43.590 --> 00:28:54.500
Adriana Douglas: that it's like. Yes, it's you. But like there's sometimes these things that maybe we haven't looked at, or that are happening, and you might even be like

212
00:28:54.680 --> 00:29:04.700
Adriana Douglas: sometimes like in the middle of a conflict or an argument like at least for me. Sometimes I walk away. And I'm like, why did I? Why, why did I say that, or like, why did I do that like

213
00:29:04.730 --> 00:29:10.150
Adriana Douglas: I don't wanna do that anymore? Like where you're saying like, I don't wanna do that anymore like this is like, not even like.

214
00:29:10.330 --> 00:29:12.469
Adriana Douglas: I don't like this energy. It feels gross.

215
00:29:12.580 --> 00:29:17.489
Adriana Douglas: So like, maybe just like I'll kick it over to you for some thoughts on that.

216
00:29:19.040 --> 00:29:30.729
Amanda Beatty:  So doing. Inner child work has been has been an experience for anybody who's done it, you know. Inner child, workshot work any of that.

217
00:29:31.040 --> 00:29:40.620
Amanda Beatty: I remember it being explained to me. I don't even remember who. I guess it might have been Stevie, the woman that we met in embodied women.

218
00:29:40.830 --> 00:29:44.540
Amanda Beatty:  explaining it to me

219
00:29:44.600 --> 00:29:45.720
Amanda Beatty: as

220
00:29:45.870 --> 00:29:48.670
Amanda Beatty: a time when your younger self.

221
00:29:49.360 --> 00:29:52.840
Amanda Beatty: when her, his or her needs were not met.

222
00:29:54.320 --> 00:30:04.770
Amanda Beatty: and in that moment you experience either, you know, unworthiness or shame, or whatever whatever the thing is, because your needs weren't being met.

223
00:30:04.870 --> 00:30:16.709
Amanda Beatty: and that how you react from that experience, how you cope with that experience, whether it's big t trauma, little t trauma, whatever the case is just any time your needs weren't met.

224
00:30:16.880 --> 00:30:31.590
Amanda Beatty: It gets stuck and frozen inside of you, and that's like that little pocket, that little frozen pocket of fear or shame, or sadness, or unworthiness. It sticks with you, and each layer like I just spoke about like the onion layers.

225
00:30:32.370 --> 00:30:43.120
Amanda Beatty: Each time you revisit these scenarios from your adult self, from a different lens from from your higher self, a more empowered self

226
00:30:43.770 --> 00:30:52.090
Amanda Beatty: each time you revisit these moments that you experienced whatever it was when you were a child. It starts to sort of

227
00:30:52.320 --> 00:31:02.199
Amanda Beatty: fall out those past experiences, because, you know, with whether it's self awareness, compassion, receiving support.

228
00:31:02.540 --> 00:31:19.550
Amanda Beatty: whatever tool it is that you are using to go back to your inner child. you you can fully be present with the little girl or boy inside of you that experienced whatever it was, and I'll give you a quick example. I was on a coaching call one time, and

229
00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:38.259
Amanda Beatty: we she we were talking about my partner and I, and like me, reacting and feeling shamed and blamed and and judged, and like that was a really really big trigger for me. And so we were sort of like dissecting of like, okay, well, when was the first time that you felt like shamed blamed or wrong, you know.

230
00:31:38.780 --> 00:31:54.560
Amanda Beatty: and instantly it was a scenario when I was 6 years old that would play over and over and over again in my head, and I didn't know why I kept replaying it, but I did, and I was homesick. I had the chicken pox I was in kindergarten, or whatever. I don't know what grade I was in.

231
00:31:54.780 --> 00:31:55.990
Amanda Beatty: and

232
00:31:56.110 --> 00:31:59.729
Amanda Beatty: I stayed home, and I remember playing candyland with my mom.

233
00:31:59.860 --> 00:32:04.280
and she was probably looking back in hindsight as my adult self.

234
00:32:04.610 --> 00:32:16.289
Amanda Beatty: She probably was annoyed because she had to take off of work right. She was home with a sick child. I was probably whiny and uncomfortable because I was itchy. She might have been worried about getting chicken pox like, whatever the case is.

235
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:27.779
Amanda Beatty: I remember her. I was frustrated. I was sad, and she had said to me like in a moment of frustration, like God, why can't you just be like your other friends who are home with their kids, probably having a great time.

236
00:32:27.870 --> 00:32:36.300
Amanda Beatty: and you hear you are miserable, and I just in that moment I shrunk like my little girl just shrunk. She felt bad, she felt wrong.

237
00:32:36.460 --> 00:32:48.110
Amanda Beatty: and I don't even remember what happened after that. But I just remember, like, from a somatic level, my body just contracted like I just felt shamed.

238
00:32:48.330 --> 00:32:52.680
Amanda Beatty: And so we. During the coaching session we revisited. That moment

239
00:32:52.690 --> 00:33:07.050
I stepped in as my adult self. and I came to her aid, and I gave her a hug, and I let her know you didn't do anything wrong. And it's Ok to be uncomfortable. And you're not bad and wrong, and you don't need to be like them?

240
00:33:07.140 --> 00:33:20.939
Amanda Beatty: And she said, No, what do you wanna do next? Would it be okay if you took her out of this home? And I was like, Oh, my God, yeah. So I did. I took her my little girl's hand, and we left my childhood home.

241
00:33:21.080 --> 00:33:23.230
Amanda Beatty: and I brought her to disk

242
00:33:23.460 --> 00:33:27.940
filled with wild flowers, and she was happy, and it was like

243
00:33:28.190 --> 00:33:43.110
Amanda Beatty: that scenario never entered my mind again. Am I still dealing with that lingering pattern of shame and blame sure, different layers of it. But that was a huge layer that I thought out

244
00:33:43.150 --> 00:33:44.830
Amanda Beatty: doing in her child work.

245
00:33:46.060 --> 00:33:50.440
Adriana Douglas: Hmm! Thank you for sharing that I love hearing about

246
00:33:51.260 --> 00:33:53.959
Adriana Douglas: the layers, and like

247
00:33:55.070 --> 00:33:59.220
Adriana Douglas: just like the ability that we have to like, go back and

248
00:33:59.460 --> 00:34:10.799
Adriana Douglas: heal the past like from the present and and also knowing that like, yeah, like, let's go back to the like. Let's talk about the layers for a second, because

249
00:34:10.850 --> 00:34:17.050
Adriana Douglas: that was definitely like a misconception I think I had in the beginning was like. it's like

250
00:34:17.659 --> 00:34:20.720
Adriana Douglas: one and done like it's like I

251
00:34:20.870 --> 00:34:28.730
Adriana Douglas: I like visited like I would like using the example you give. I if that were like something I had experienced, I'd have been like, Okay, I visited the example like

252
00:34:28.790 --> 00:34:37.110
Adriana Douglas: this. This feeling is now complete, like. Yes, that feeling is complete from that moment in time. But, like

253
00:34:37.230 --> 00:34:42.290
Adriana Douglas: all the other associations and things that are

254
00:34:42.780 --> 00:34:56.009
Adriana Douglas: tied into that feeling like it's, it's like you, you slowly but surely like. Uncover the next layer and free yourself up a little bit more, and that goes back to like the beginning of our conversation with creating space, like, I bet

255
00:34:56.510 --> 00:34:57.690
Adriana Douglas: when you

256
00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:04.700
Adriana Douglas: experienced that in your session that, like you, created more space inside, like you felt more spacious.

257
00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:17.790
Amanda Beatty: Oh, my gosh, totally it. Yeah. You create space for for your true essence, and my true essence doesn't feel shamed or blamed or guilty like that. Doesn't none of that belongs to me.

258
00:35:18.780 --> 00:35:22.169
Adriana Douglas: which is like also an amazing thing. Once you

259
00:35:22.630 --> 00:35:36.219
Adriana Douglas: once you realize that and integrate that where you're like, actually, none of that's me like me, like inside like this, like the soul essence, you know. Yeah. Well, that's where I came to the conclusion of like.

260
00:35:36.530 --> 00:35:41.230
Amanda Beatty: oh, actually, now I have the space to look back and be super

261
00:35:41.370 --> 00:35:50.450
Amanda Beatty: self aware of. Oh, my gosh, you probably were being like a typical kid. Miserable whiny! You know, itchy, and

262
00:35:50.450 --> 00:36:13.190
Amanda Beatty: she probably had to take off work. Maybe she didn't have any sick days. Maybe she lost a day's pay. Maybe you know what if? What if what if? What if? Instead of what if that I'm bad? I'm wrong. I'm not like my other peers, I'm you know. I'm I'm a lot to deal with and like, instead of all of those, what ifs it was like? Oh, actually, no. So yeah, it created so much space for me to look at it from a zoomed out perspective.

263
00:36:13.220 --> 00:36:19.420
and not attach myself to the situation and make myself bad and wrong. which was.

264
00:36:19.520 --> 00:36:32.740
Amanda Beatty: you know, in in in the the way of looking at layers. That was a really thick layer, you know, but no, no one, and done like I wish and no, and and what you were just saying like.

265
00:36:32.940 --> 00:36:35.510
Adriana Douglas: that is something that like

266
00:36:36.050 --> 00:36:44.290
Adriana Douglas: really is new for me. But like releasing your parents from that cause, like exactly what you're just explaining like, it's like

267
00:36:44.360 --> 00:36:49.720
Adriana Douglas: we can hold so much emotion for our experiences with our parents, and like

268
00:36:50.310 --> 00:36:54.030
Adriana Douglas: they were just doing the best that they knew was what they were

269
00:36:54.100 --> 00:37:03.469
Adriana Douglas: given and like. It's so I for me like it's so much easier said than done. If you had said that to me 3 years ago I would have been like like, sure like there, but like

270
00:37:04.010 --> 00:37:14.279
Adriana Douglas: just to have the compassion exactly what you're saying like, maybe they had a lot of bills to pay like maybe they didn't get paid by like by somebody immediately, like

271
00:37:14.730 --> 00:37:23.090
Adriana Douglas: maybe their parents never gave them the tools to support them in the way that now you're supporting yourself so like

272
00:37:23.240 --> 00:37:31.690
Adriana Douglas: kinda goes into the like, the layers. but also like the generations like of yeah. The way that now

273
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:42.509
Adriana Douglas: I'm sure that you're taking forward like in your parenting, right like, based off of all the things you've learned and all the things that you're like. I want this to end with me like, I don't want

274
00:37:42.670 --> 00:37:46.230
Adriana Douglas: my son to like Experience XYZ,

275
00:37:46.980 --> 00:37:59.709
Amanda Beatty: yeah, absolutely. There's a lot inner child work was super triggering for me, because at the same time I was going back like with my inner child, and then in the other, like the underneath

276
00:37:59.890 --> 00:38:06.010
Amanda Beatty: layer of that was like, Oh, and you're a mom, and you have this 7 year old like

277
00:38:06.730 --> 00:38:09.880
is the duality of both of like comforting

278
00:38:09.980 --> 00:38:16.040
Amanda Beatty: and having compassion for my inner child, and then not shaming myself and having compassion for my adult self

279
00:38:17.080 --> 00:38:23.790
Amanda Beatty: looking at. Oh, what are you doing to him that you're not that you might not be realizing, you know, like she, I'm sure she didn't realize it. But

280
00:38:23.820 --> 00:38:48.199
Amanda Beatty: that sentence that she uttered was, gonna stick with me for my entire adult life, you know, like no way she would have said that right? So it's like, Oh, my gosh! What like? What have I said to him that he's, gonna you know, at 35 years old, be like, well, mom, at one time, like, so yeah, in our child work as a trip. And it really takes a lot of a lot of compassion to

281
00:38:48.290 --> 00:38:50.390
Amanda Beatty: sort of go through and

282
00:38:51.460 --> 00:39:03.930
Amanda Beatty: unravel and repair it ourselves, you know. Unravel some of the the baggage some of the heaviness and and repair ourselves from a more from our adult selves. You know, who know better.

283
00:39:04.190 --> 00:39:06.650
Amanda Beatty: Even if we don't realize we know better we do.

284
00:39:07.130 --> 00:39:11.340
Adriana Douglas: Yeah, like it's like, re parenting is

285
00:39:12.580 --> 00:39:14.220
Adriana Douglas: is something that

286
00:39:14.770 --> 00:39:26.459
Adriana Douglas: like the world. So the world, the world would be like a much more loving place. If We all were able to to repair and come from that like

287
00:39:26.560 --> 00:39:29.920
Adriana Douglas: higher perspective, you know, and more open.

288
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:38.340
Adriana Douglas: more open to to releasing a lot of lot of our experiences from from times past, whether it was with your parents or with

289
00:39:38.590 --> 00:39:41.030
Adriana Douglas: somebody else like. yeah.

290
00:39:41.220 --> 00:39:44.010

293
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:58.300

294
00:39:58.320 --> 00:40:01.470
Adriana Douglas: What you're feeling inspired by to share about your work?

295
00:40:02.520 --> 00:40:14.569

296
00:40:14.610 --> 00:40:30.920
Amanda Beatty: I'm pretty authentic and raw about how I'm moving through it, what tools I'm using? You know, II dub myself the the self love Guru. Hence to your diary, the self love, podcast but I really feel like it's important for

297
00:40:31.080 --> 00:40:33.589
Amanda Beatty: me to share my experiences so that

298
00:40:33.720 --> 00:41:08.319
people don't think that they're alone. In this, you know, we're all in this journey if you're on the journey, and we're all doing the work, and we're all sometimes feeling like we're stuck in the mud and having tools and a support system and community is has been everything. So I hang out mostly on Instagram. Everything that is linked in my bio! You can work with me. I have free tools. I have a a newsletter, a weekly newsletter called love notes, and I literally it's been something I've been so excited about. I just share my current experiences. How I'm moving through what I'm moving through the tools that I use.

299
00:41:08.410 --> 00:41:23.619
Amanda Beatty: Because I feel like. It's something that I have needed and haven't really found just like weekly reminders and invitations to check in and love yourself more, and all of that good stuff. And

300
00:41:23.750 --> 00:41:32.039
Amanda Beatty: yeah. So that's that's where you can find me. And that's the link for all of my stuff. I have one on. One offers group offers like, I'm doing all the things

301
00:41:32.600 --> 00:41:38.510
Amanda Beatty: because I just this work is like. once I found it, I was like. Oh, my God!

302
00:41:39.050 --> 00:41:42.530
Amanda Beatty: It found me, and it was like this sigh of relief, of like

303
00:41:43.190 --> 00:41:55.850
Amanda Beatty: this is what I meant to do. I felt so lost I felt so like. Ugh! Life has got to be better than this, but it was because I was holding on to so much heaviness.

304
00:41:56.300 --> 00:42:02.239
and once I found coaching and somatic healing and breathwork. And like all of these tools, I'm like.

305
00:42:02.820 --> 00:42:07.929
Amanda Beatty: oh, it is better than this. So now it's just my mission to to share that with the world.

306
00:42:08.670 --> 00:42:25.910
Adriana Douglas: Thank you. I love. Okay. So I love the newsletter. I'm I get it. And it's like every week, I think. And you drop so many resources in there, and I feel like you have some offerings that are also like for people that are new to your work. I feel like you do do some sessions that are like, there's a self love session, I think.

307
00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:35.230
Adriana Douglas: Yeah, tell me, if those are for everyone or those are for yeah, those are for everyone. Once a month. I host a somatic self love, session

308
00:42:35.330 --> 00:42:46.569
Amanda Beatty: and a breath work workshop. So both of them I do monthly, and they're $10 drop in fees. And yeah, I open it up to my community. And it's just a really great way to

309
00:42:46.790 --> 00:43:03.729
Amanda Beatty: tap in to to get out of your head into your body to see what's going on inside of you, either through your breath or just through your presence and your awareness. Somatic healing and breathwork have been like the most powerful tools for me. And so I really wanted a like a tangible

310
00:43:05.200 --> 00:43:11.920
Amanda Beatty: cheap way for people to affordable way for people to get access to

311
00:43:12.380 --> 00:43:21.689
Amanda Beatty: these experiences, because I mean, one session has the power to change everything. Unlock a huge layer, and you know

312
00:43:21.910 --> 00:43:22.960
Amanda Beatty: that's everything.

313
00:43:23.070 --> 00:43:28.939
Adriana Douglas: and to your point of seeking support, like for those listening like, it's so important, at least

314
00:43:29.180 --> 00:43:34.280
Adriana Douglas: in my experience. Like, yeah, to go through this with the support of somebody. So with Amanda

315
00:43:34.430 --> 00:43:40.250
Adriana Douglas: guiding you through an hour-long session, whether it's breathwork, a self love session like

316
00:43:40.460 --> 00:43:44.860
Adriana Douglas: you've got the support which kind of allows you to like. relax into it

317
00:43:44.970 --> 00:43:48.640
Adriana Douglas: like in a way like whatever is coming up

318
00:43:48.670 --> 00:43:53.669
Adriana Douglas: and just be there and and like what we were talking about this whole conversation, like sitting sitting with

319
00:43:53.890 --> 00:43:59.019
Adriana Douglas: sitting with the pattern, sitting with the lesson, like sitting with the wisdom to like, let it

320
00:43:59.480 --> 00:44:07.120
Adriana Douglas: let it inspire you into your into your next course of action. Right like. That's kind of these sessions allow you to

321
00:44:07.470 --> 00:44:14.610
Adriana Douglas: to release, to release and to just as we embody, embody.

322
00:44:15.830 --> 00:44:16.809
Adriana Douglas: the wisdom.

323
00:44:17.020 --> 00:44:18.280
Amanda Beatty: Oh, yeah.

324
00:44:18.900 --> 00:44:25.480
Amanda Beatty: yeah. Full circle

325
00:44:25.980 --> 00:44:33.309
Amanda Beatty: of what you've learned, so that you can become your best self, the self that feels all the things that you want to feel.

326
00:44:33.680 --> 00:44:43.689
Amanda Beatty: It's everything. And I think it's something that we're all. It's like the one thing we all have in common. We all want to experience more love, more wealth, more freedom, more success.

327
00:44:44.430 --> 00:44:57.250
Amanda Beatty: And we. And the way in which we do that is by letting go of anything that's not that moving toward moving away from anything that's not that, and moving towards that creating space so that we can move towards that

328
00:44:58.250 --> 00:45:07.100
Adriana Douglas: I love that I think that's a perfect, a perfect ending for today. so I will link all of Amanda's details in the show notes.
