EPISODE 14
===

[00:00:00] Welcome to Live Radiant, the podcast where we reclaim ourselves, align with the rhythm of the moon and step fully into our power. I'm Ava, your guide to a life of flow, clarity, and limitless radiance. If you've ever felt stuck, burnt out, or disconnected from your own brilliance, you are in the right place.

Here we blend lunar wisdom, energetic balance, and deep soul alignment. To help you release the noise, trust yourself completely, and create a life that feels as magical as you are. Each week we unlock the secrets of the moon, harness, the power of the law of resonance, and shift out of hustle, culture, and into divine timing, so you can stop forcing and start flowing.

It is time to let go of what dims your light and live radiant. Let's dive in.

Welcome back to The Radiant, I'm Ava. And today [00:01:00] as we enter the waning give us moon, we are entering the final transmission in the new Earth Codes trilogy, this is the one that brings it all together. The one that holds you and anchors you and really calls you back to what's always been your own truth.

Time was our first code. Money was the second, and now it's about trust. Not trust in broken systems, not trust in outdated paradigms that never saw your brilliance, but sacred trust. Trust in your own wisdom and a cellular level in your own divinity, [00:02:00] because if we're real for a second. So many of us, almost all of us, really have learned to distrust ourselves.

Because we were trained to trust in things that were not aligned with us. And so any inkling or nudge or urge that came from within us that conflicted with what we were taught was disregarded, and over time we began to not trust in ourselves because we weren't acting on what was coming through and guiding us.

We were seduced , by the media. By the machine. The matrix that's it's everything is. Teaching trust to trust in [00:03:00] linear, logical external validations, so we, we gave away our trust to degrees, to job titles, to paychecks, to partners, various relationships we've been in to coaches even, and we've ignored our own intuition, bypassed our bodies and silenced our hearts. And then when it all collapses, when we break down, we think we are the problem. My clients have said what's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? I say, nothing's wrong with you. That's the trap.

That's the programming. It all comes crashing down and we point our fingers inward at ourselves because we don't even trust ourselves [00:04:00] to know that we are not the problem. I'll say this really clearly. If you've been carrying self-doubt, if you. Feel like you can't trust yourself or you don't trust yourself to make the right decisions in your own life.

It's because you've been taught to trust everything but yourself and it's just programming, which can be undone. You can be deprogrammed and healed from the trauma of denying yourself your own truth. And today what I wanna do is guide you home to your own wisdom, to the knowing that lives inside of you. The truth that trusting in yourself is the same [00:05:00] as trusting in the force that created you.

And this is not like just soft and warm and fuzzy and sentimental. This is actually, fierce and this is required for leadership in the new Earth. So how do we do it? How do we rebuild trust in ourselves? After all these years of self abandonment, all the denial of what we knew was true, all the betrayals of ourselves, of our own knowing, and we start by seeing the pattern clearly.

We pause and we observe it, we take a step back. We see the pattern. We name where we've outsourced, we name where we said yes when our bodies were saying no or even screaming [00:06:00] no. Where we followed a formula or a method instead of going with the flow that we. Wanted to be it that we felt called to be it.

Instead we said, no, that doesn't make any sense. I've gotta follow this step by step, this linear path instead of this wavy flow.

And as we pull back and we see it from the observer standpoint, and then we recognize that it's just the way that we were taught to be. Once we've recognized it, we have a choice. We dis-identify with that way of being, and we forgive ourselves. Not in a fluffy, bypassing kind of way, but in a soul level reclamation from your own heart, forgive yourself. You did what you had to do to [00:07:00] survive. Now that things are changing so rapidly, the frequencies and energies that are available and unfolding on the earth right now, we get to choose something new.

Trusting yourself is not a mindset shift. It's a deep programming to allow it to happen, which is in the mind, but trusting yourself is not a mindset shift. You will not get there by shifting in your mind. This is the return to the wisdom way of knowing This is a re-anchoring into the wisdom that lives in your [00:08:00] body.

In the book, the Wisdom Way of Knowing by Cynthia Bors, she teaches us that true knowing doesn't live in the mind. It lives in the heart, in resonance, in this very deep, non-linear intelligence that cannot be seen and cannot always be explained, but it can always be felt, and this is what we're returning to.

Every time that you pause before responding, every time you listen to your breath. Every time you honor your no or whisper your yes, you're rebuilding trust. You're saying, I'm not going to abandon myself in this moment. I'm not going to abandon myself anymore.

I'm staying right here. I'm staying [00:09:00] present, and I am living from the wisdom of my own heart and soul.

And if we take it deeper, the alchemy of trust, the place it becomes quantum is in presence. Presence is the practice that restores trust.

When you're present, you're no longer lost in loops of fear. You're not lost in projections of the future or shame from the past. You are here. You are with yourself. And that presence, that being with and acting from that presence, that's what builds trust. This is how your body learns. I will not leave you again.

You are safe. I will not rush you. I will not ignore your wisdom for the sake of approval, validation, or [00:10:00] productivity presence is how the divine speaks to you and through you. Presence is the portal, and the more that you live from presence, the more your leadership becomes rooted. Not in performance, but in truth.

So if you're a leader in this new paradigm, which I think that every woman on this planet is a leader of the new paradigm because the new earth is the feminine frequency. If you embody a feminine frequency, you are a leader in this new paradigm and you are here to guide others, you building something sacred, you're walking through this season of uncertainty,

It is very uncertain. Right now it feels that way. And your task to root yourself in your leadership and reclaim [00:11:00] what is yours, your innate power, it's to trust yourself. Because people don't need you to have all the answers. They need you to model integrity, the people that are looking to you.

For guidance. Wanna see you walking in faith because that faith will, it will transfer to them. They need you to trust in your own alignment and trust in your own wisdom so that they can see you as the example of someone doing that, which liberates them to do that for themselves and that makes you a leader.

And that makes you magnetic and it makes you feel like a safe space. It makes you radiant.

So under this waning give us moon, it's this opportunity to reflect on where we have abandoned ourselves and see the truth. In why we lost our [00:12:00] way and observe and become present and integrate what we've learned. I say, what am I learning? What do I know now to be true and what parts of me are ready to come home? Where am I ready to come home to myself?

What does a path look like then for the woman who has reclaimed trust in herself, the woman who is no longer outsourcing her power to systems to story.

A woman who trusts in herself is no longer controllable. She doesn't get manipulated by urgency. Scarcity, shame. False timelines. She is not performing for anybody. She's in presence and that presence [00:13:00] is strong. And that woman, that radiant leader, she builds differently. She lives differently.

She creates from a place of overflow of love, not from obligation. She speaks when there's truth to be spoken, not from pressure.

She rests as an act of power. She receives as her birthright not a reward for productivity.

She doesn't produce from adrenaline. She births from alignment because trust has rewired her nervous system. Trust has anchored her into her own divine rhythm. Her own unique frequency [00:14:00] that she dances in.

Trust makes her available for miracles that could never be calculated in a spreadsheet or in a plan. This is where quantum leadership begins, where you don't need to scale. You resonate. You don't need to prove you. Just remember, ' cause you're not here to do what everyone else is doing. You're here to lead in a new way, and you're here to bring through the codes that nobody else can carry because they're yours.

But it's not gonna happen if you don't trust yourself. It's not gonna happen if you are still consumed and overrun by this old programming. If you're here, you're here to embody the impossible, to be the one who proves that trust actually works. And you can start right now. Every time you say yes to your body, every time you say [00:15:00] no to something that's not aligned.

Every time you pause, if you don't have clarity and you don't allow yourself to get pushed into making a decision, when you aren't clear every decision that you make from your inner knowing. Not from the algorithm, that's the revolution for you.

A few markers of a radiant leader who is trusting herself is she no longer rushes because she knows divine timing is never late. She no longer explains or justifies. Her presence says it all. She no longer asks for permission because she knows that she's already been chosen. She no longer chases anything. She magnetizes and she no longer leads for recognition. [00:16:00] She leads because that's who she is. She leads because her heart has something to say. She leads because her heart has a lot to say. And she's the only one who can say it. She's the only one who can speak from her heart, and she lets her heart guide the process and she trusts in her heart. She trusts in herself, and in doing so, she creates a field of coherence and those who are meant to walk with her will find her. Not because she's shouting, but because she's emanating, and that's what we're all here for.

We're not here for mass appeal. We're not here for mainstream approval. That's what keeps you stuck. We're here for soul resonance, [00:17:00] deep unmistakable, soul resonance. Nobody is here to lead everyone, but we're all here to lead the right ones for us. The ones who are waiting for someone else to go first, to walk in that trust to model what's possible and to them of what they already know is true, but they've been denying.

I wanna guide you through some journaling because this is a pretty deep topic and I find it really helpful to write. It's especially effective for connecting me with my heart and the words of my heart and the wisdom of my heart. And that's where we wanna get back to, to trust ourselves again, to know that we can trust ourselves again.

So, [00:18:00] grab a journal, some paper, something to write with, and I'll take you through some questions. There are no wrong answers. You just let your heart speak. Start by placing your left hand over your heart and just taking three rounds of breath,

breathing deeply into the heart, and letting go of tension around the heart,

opening up some space so that the heart can. Say what it needs to say

now. Ask yourself, where have I outsourced my trust in the past?

What systems, people, [00:19:00] timelines, or beliefs. Have I trusted in more than myself?

And what has that cost me emotionally, spiritually, creatively?

What does my body know that I've been ignoring?

What whispers did I silence?

What did my intuition and sacred body wisdom try to tell me that now I wish I had [00:20:00] followed?

Where am I ready to forgive myself?

What moment of self abandonment needs my compassion?

What part of me is wanting to be told you did the best you could with what you knew?

What does my heart know right now?[00:21:00] 

If I trust in the wisdom that created me, I, what decision would I make right now with ease and peace?

What would I release?

What would I begin?

Who am I becoming as I trust myself again?

Describe her

name, her.

What does she lead?

How does she move through the world?[00:22:00] 

What becomes possible when she trusts in herself and therefore feels safe to fully express herself.

And what is one sacred action I can take today to align with her

what would feel like a yes from my soul

and can be something big or small? What? Would show my body we are safe to trust [00:23:00] again.

Take a moment right now and breathe into this vision. Feel who you are becoming. Feel her in your body. Become aware of your inner body that glow. Do this now, not someday, not later, but now, because this person, this version of you, is already here and you just have to [00:24:00] trust. Trust her, lead with her, and let everything you create from here be radiant.

Before we close, I wanna invite you to pause again and be here and decide that just in this moment, you're going to trust that what is unfolding in your life is perfectly timed, that you are not behind, you are becoming, and you are remembering, and you're walking in divine timing. The wisdom of your own heart is the compass on that path.

So today we walked that Sacred Path of Trust, the third and final New Earth Code. In this trilogy, we named all the ways that we've been conditioned to place [00:25:00] our trust in systems, timelines, and voices that disconnected us from our truth. We acknowledged the pain of self abandonment and reclaimed the practice of coming home to ourselves.

We remember that trusting in ourselves is trusting in the wisdom that created us, and that it's not about getting it right, it's about being willing to stay with yourself in every moment, no matter what that moment brings. And we explored the wisdom way of knowing and how the intelligence of our own heart.

Guides us more powerfully than though the noise in our minds. We dropped into a sacred practice of presence and recognized how now is the only moment trust could live in. [00:26:00] And finally, we cast a vision for what's possible when a radiant woman fully trusts herself. And she becomes a leader, a lighthouse, a quantum catalyst.

She stops chasing, starts magnetizing. She stops proving she's resonating, and this is the path of radiant leadership, and this is the path that you're on. And I cannot wait to walk this next phase with you because, in our next episode, we'll begin building this new paradigm and we'll be talking about the three principles of lunar business leadership. So you have the codes, and next we'll structure your sacred leadership around them.
