EPISODE 2: When Spirit Aligns the Souls

How Our Divine Partnership Was Written in the Stars

In this heartfelt episode, Lindsay Stanton and Autumn Grimes share the soul-led story of how Spirit orchestrated their meeting, guided their healing journeys, and ultimately united them to co-create The Soul Revival community and podcast. What started as intuitive nudges and divine breadcrumbs turned into a powerful partnership rooted in authenticity, grief transmutation, and deep spiritual alignment.

Tune in as they reflect on:

• The synchronicities that brought them together
• How channeling, grief, and spiritual downloads became part of their divine assignment
• What it means to co-create from a place of energetic alignment and “hell yes” frequency
• Why community and healing are inseparable
• And the sacred reminder that rejection is divine redirection

This is more than a backstory—it's an invitation to trust your path, honor your intuition, and say yes to the community your soul has been seeking. Spirit brought you here for a reason.

We're your hosts and guides. We don't just talk healing, we live it. This is where soul meets strategy, [...0.5s] spirit meets structure, and our highest self take the mic. [...4.1s] Welcome a line souls.I'm Lindsay Stanton, I am a grief coach, I'm an author, I am trained in somatic therapy as well as intuitive Reiki. [...1.1s]Hi, welcome back, I am Autumn Grimes. I am an intuitive guide as well as a psychic medium and an angel Reiki master. I am so glad to have you back for episode two [...1.3s] and Episode 2. We're gonna deep dive into how spirit brought Adam and I together almost four years ago and brought us to the point where we are today. It's a really amazing story. And [...0.5s] I'm so grateful that I got to meet you and that we get to be building this beautiful community and podcast together.So I'm so thankful to our both of our divine support teams for allowing that to happen and bringing us together. You are a huge, um, [...1.0s] just a, a huge healing [...1.4s] person for me during my, um, etopic pregnancies and you are seriously like such a light in my life.So it is such an honor and I'm so happy that our guides brought us together to create this community to help others and just, um you know, experience life together.Wow, thank you, thank you. I feel the same way. So [...0.5s] just to start our journey together, autumn and I were in another community together, and that's how we met, was through a different spiritual platform that we were both in.And we both were facilitators in that community and often times would see each other on meetings. And this goes back almost four years and I think we both felt very drawn to each other's energy.I know from my perspective, Autumn's energy has always reminded me of [...0.6s] one of my closest friends energies. And like her energy is just so amazing, always positive, always joyful, and always like ready to go and like jump into the next adventure.And your spirit and energy has always reminded me of her. And so I felt like this [...0.6s] instant Kindred connection with you. I think as a result of that and, uh yeah, I just was so drawn to your energy. Like early days when, when I first started in this [...0.8s] community that I was in [...0.5s] Lindsay same.I remember when I was leading groups in this, uh, other community, I would literally search through pages to find your name in your face because you would always just be a safe space for me and your energy would instantly ground me. Um.So when you weren't there, I'd always realize like, oh my goodness since he's not here. Um.And I remember early on, like [...0.6s] three and a half years ago probably, um, I was just writing, co creating automatic writing with, with universe. And I had wrote that you and I were going to be working on something together in the future. I had no idea spirit had this big of a plan together. Um.I honestly thought it was when I opened for you, for your book launch, and that was just, that was just a little nugget spirits. Like I got something way bigger for you too. And I feel so, um, just honored because your energy, [...0.8s] it's just such a light and, um, it's sacred. And I feel just so blessed that spirit LED me to you and, and [...0.5s] vice versa. Um.Thank you. And I feel like you just exude joy. Um. And I, so though, for those of you don't know, about three years ago now I [...0.8s] channeled a book called The Enduring and everlasting.And I did an event in Nashville, which is where I live now, and then I did an event at home, which is Chicago land area. And so autumn did a beautiful channeled healing at that event to kick off my book launch in the Chicago area.Just so thankful for. And, um, [...0.7s] that is very interesting too, because I think the connection there is very interesting. So as I was early days channeling the book, so this goes back [...0.8s] very soon after Roger passed, that I started channeling and knew I was gonna be writing a book.I would say within the first like six months or so of his passing. I also started getting signs and messages and dream visits that I was going to be building a community. So [...0.7s] I've got notes going back [...0.7s] almost four years, uh, definitely three and a half years, about what a community was supposed to look like. And just different elements, the community.And I relied on that, those notes when I thought about what type of platform to choose, what I want, how I wanted the community to look like, what would have aligned with me.And this was a lot of alliance to like, early in my journey, where did I [...0.6s] need the most help? What tools would have been the most helpful to collapse time around my transformation? Because for me, there wasn't, [...0.6s] those tools weren't available.What I, what deeply resonate with me and helped me the most on my healing journey. The tools weren't [...0.9s] correlated together in a way that would, that would help me. And so I had to build that on my own.And so I was channeling things to help myself, and I was channeling things that would ultimately [...0.7s] really be put together in a way to help [...1.2s] other people, massive amounts of people.And I had a medium tell me really early days [...0.6s] that validate for me about the community. I was like, oh yeah, I've already been getting the signs about that.I've already been taking notes about that. Like I knew that the book was just the foundation and then we would be Roger and I rebuilding this community off of it.So I feel like it's very interesting, uh, that you and I got [...1.0s] brought together, that I was pulled to have you be part of the book launch. Because [...0.5s] I was really shown early on that that was gonna be kind of the cornerstone. And then all these other things were gonna be built [...0.6s] off of it. So, [...0.8s] oh my goodness, I, I didn't realize that.That's awesome. I remember, um, being at your book launch though, and I'm like, Lindsay, like I, cause I think that was the first time I actually met you in person. And I'm like, I feel like I've met you before, and I'm sure we've had past lives together.Um, haha, but then I was realizing that I think I was a waitress for you at Burger Bros in Winfield. I don't know if you remember this, uh, [...0.7s] realization.Yeah yeah, and I think that you would bring your dogs to the patio. I think you said you were there once or twice, but I, I truly believe I was a waitress there. And, and [...0.6s] going back to episode 1 about energy and how you really relate to energy.And, and that's just full circle, um, moment for me cause I'm like, I knew that, I knew her, um, again and then so fast forward, I was a part of another community and, um, [...0.7s] things are just, you know, life goes on, and I decided I was gonna create a whole different community, right?Um, all about, you know, moon magic, um, medium ship, um, healing, deep inner healing, and, um, well, Lindsay, I'll let you, I'll let you finish this because violence also I just wanna say you're co creating with the universe, your new baby boy during this time, so that's really important to note as well.Yes I, yes, exactly, I was, I was [...0.8s] making a whole baby and [...0.8s] doing a lot of work behind the scenes. But then, [...0.5s] you know, I was gonna launch this membership for four, and, you know, there was so much of our membership that we could see together, but we were still separate at this time, um, co great.I feel like you and I both got the download, like, the same day, right, yes, at the same time that we should [...0.9s] move our memberships together, because our mission is the same. It's [...0.6s] no healing, [...0.6s] no healing tool works for [...0.8s] everyone, right?And and, and I wanted a community where we could try so many different tools, so someone could find what they need in that moment.And that's exactly what the Soul Revival is all about. And, and [...0.5s] when spirit had aligned us with that, I was like, I am in. And and, and there's no other person that I would rather be with. Because I think it, [...0.5s] it's very hard to find people that are so authentic and heart centered, and just want love for everyone.And, uh, I think that we are [...0.5s] very special holding that energy, [...0.6s] um, with just wanting people to feel that love from the universe.And, and no matter what, we will get it to them. Um, we are all constantly channeling, always trying different healing modalities tapping, you know, Akashic Records. Um, I love anything to do with Ricky. Um, there's sound healing, just so many different tools.And we're bringing that into the community, um, and making everyone the expert, making everyone have a chance to shine their [...0.7s] different tools that they've channeled.Because I think that [...0.6s] we're all one, and each person unlocks another level within us, and it's, it's something magical when we bring community back into it as the main center point. So 100%, and I wanna say that we're gonna, we're bringing that to the podcast as well.So, [...0.6s] and to, to honest point originally, that were everything's energy. Like, you can feel the energy. I know when I was [...0.5s] early days on my journey, I could feel the energy of something resonated with me or not.And there might be a healing modality that was interesting to me, but did it deeply resonate that it was going to assist me on my journey?And [...0.5s] sometimes the answer was no. And so being in a community or even spaces where you can test out the feeling of that vibration, and if it resonates with you is so important.I think that's why [...0.5s] the Soul Revival community is important. And I think it's why this podcast is important because it gives you an opportunity to feel into, as we have different guests on is Autumn Night, deep dive into these conversations that are so important to be having.It gives you a chance to really test out whether something is just mildly interesting to you, or if it's something that [...0.7s] the spirit, your spirit team, your guides are really calling you to explore on a whole another level.And you're really gonna be able to start to, to get that and feel into that, [...0.5s] uh, Lizzie, that reminds me, uh, when we [...0.5s] both got the download to co, [...0.5s] co create this community together. We were living in that hell yes energy every single day.We were like, yes yes, yes, and I think that, that's, that's that excitement energy, that, uh, that, that hell yes energy is that, yes, this modality is for you, or this community is for you, or this person is for you, or even just a nudge of, like, wanting to know more.Um, it's very important to pay attention to your body and your energy in, in every moment of every day to follow that, because those are the breadcrumbs that your spirit team is giving you to make sure that you reach the, the road that you're meant to be on at that time 100%.And listening to the nose is equally important because you're giving yourself space for the energy for the hell.Yes, so without the nose, you, like, if you say yes to everything, you're not gonna have enough space to be able to or band with, to be able to really dive into the things they're meant for you.And I do, I'm glad you circled back because I wanna say, when I got that download and for those, some people might really understand this.And I think it's an important thing to know. But I was walking one of my dogs when I got that download. And I find for me, a lot of times, and the more I do this work, the more obviously this has been the case. But [...0.5s] sometimes it's just when you're, you don't have to be meditating. You might just be doing a monotonous task like driving or walking.For me, walking the dogs. I frequently get downloads while I'm walking my dogs, which I think is a multitude of things I'm walking. It's a repetitive behavior for me. I'm with animals, my dogs. I'm in nature. And so, and, um, generally I walk them first thing in the morning.So it's like my start to the day. But I got that initial download about reaching out to you and [...0.5s] it was so aligned. I mean our timing was so aligned on when we were about to kick off. They were like, it was less than a week from each other when we wanted to do our kickoff dates.And so as autumn mention, we were just [...0.9s] all in, I'm doing this together. And it just all came together for us.And I know the initial, for those who are new to my world, Hawks are a big sign of mine from Roger. And I know on the initial [...0.6s] call that we had, we were like, okay, let's do this thing and let's break down. Like, what's it gonna look like? What's it gonna be?On that initial call, I was driving and I had, I think three or four Hawks fly over my car during the course of our conversation, which was just [...0.7s] such validation.And I know so many times, like we were having conversations early days, we had angel memories coming through and just [...0.5s] synchronicity after synchronicity and things like when you are on your aligned path.I just wanna point this out cause I think it's really important when you're on your aligned path and listening and tapping into spirit like autumn and I have been to create what we've been creating with the community and the podcast [...1.1s] doors open for you in this crazy magical way. So [...0.9s] there is a direct connection whether you're seeking it or not.There is a direct connection [...0.5s] between healing and the open heartedness that healing [...0.5s] requires of you and manifestation. And we have been manifesting like crazy getting invited on [...0.6s] so many other podcasts, uh, having different guests come to us to be on the show. We've had just so many, so much alignment, uh, beautiful things coming our way.And in 100% divine timing, I just, I feel like [...0.8s] Adam and I use boxer to communicate daily, and which is just been a phenomenal tool for us not to plug boxer, but maybe they should be a sponsor of this podcast with the amount of, amount we use it.We should probably ask them, but, um, it, like, it's just been crazy how fast it's all come together, how we've been able to collapse time around all these things coming to fruition, and then [...0.6s] the opportunities that have come our way as a result of just being in this hell.Yes, energy like autumn mentioned, [...0.7s] we have an exciting opportunity to share with you.

[...1.3s] Ah, it's phenomenal, and I just wanna touch base on the note, right, because, it's like, how do you remember a note from three and a half years ago, um, the day before Lindsay had reached out to me?I was [...0.8s] clearing up my space energetically, getting rid of old papers, just organizing my files, just really doing an energetic cleanse the way that I [...0.6s] use it as, like, a hygiene practice for my energy. Um, and I was going through notebooks, and this one page, like, really stuck out to me.So I flipped it open. And, and as I was ripping it out, I, I seen, um, my note there stating, stating that I would be working with Lindsay in the future and, and that I had a connection with her.And, um, that was the day before Lindsay had reached out to me, so again, just like breadcrumbs, like spirits, like, yes, this is for you.Because they gave me that note and, and I was getting downloads too, that we, you know, we could come together and really make something so magical, because we are in such alignment with our authentic [...0.5s] hearts and and, and the universe, right?We are all one, and so what happens to me happens to you, and I just want everyone to feel in this universal space of safe, loving connection, [...1.2s] 100%, 100%.And, and I think, like, when you can do something in community, I really feel like, honestly, we have [...0.8s] brought through so much divine feminine energy behind what we're offering to.Not that there's not something available for everybody in our community, cause they're 100% is, but I do feel [...0.7s] divine feminine energy is the energy of healing.And I think you and I have been on such different paths that have LED us to where we're at right now, [...0.5s] but [...0.6s] such complimentary paths in the way that we've shown up for it and the work that we've done, the way we've gone inward to heal ourselves and the wounds that have [...1.1s] either inflicted us or the, you know, we have had to fight our way through.And I think both of us [...1.1s] are honestly, I had somebody say this to me maybe a month ago and I kind of shook it off and, [...1.0s] and was dismissive of it. And then I was like, wait a minute, that actually is true.And that's warrior energy. And I think both of us have warrior energy. And, you know, I, [...1.1s] I didn't attach to that when it was said to me and I started, it was fun.It's funny how you marinate on things, especially when you've done this work. But, like, [...0.8s] the next day, I was thinking about that being said to me, and I was thinking about all the things that I've navigated the last four years. And I know you, you know, have navigated so many things over your lifetime as well. And, [...0.8s] it's like, no, actually I am like, I'm gonna own that.So Lily, you should in, in Warrior Energy too. I love that you say that, because it's really just accepting all parts of ourselves, like, loving every single phase of our life that we had went through, and not attaching to [...0.6s] the conditioning mindset of it. But, but just letting it ebbing flow. And, and being an example to others, like, hey, there is a way out.And I do think community is so important because [...0.5s] each light, each one of us is an energy body. And the more [...0.7s] energetically charged we are with other humans, the brighter the light, the more the healing, the bigger the downloads, the bigger the miracles.I mean, it is it, it's just such an honor to be here. Um, and, and guiding people, [...0.7s] guiding their people, aligning their spirits back to their soul and letting them know that, hey, life is okay. We can, we can bring joy [...0.5s] back to life. It doesn't have to be so hard.Absolutely. And I think, you know, it is hard being human, but I'm a huge, I talk a lot about duality for those who are new to my world. We can hold the duality of grief and trauma and our healing work at the same time.We can hold the duality of [...0.7s] light, love, possibility, joy. And, um, I think [...1.2s] often times they are a pathway to each other.And, you know, really our grief, [...0.5s] whether it's grief around trauma that we've experienced, grief of the loss of a loved one and the physical realm, [...0.7s] at the end of the day, it is all love.And the reason we feel that deep pain is actually result of loving so, so deeply. And [...0.8s] the more [...0.6s] empathetic you are, the deeper that, that is going to affect you.But being able to hold that energy of the possibility of joy that can result from that as well. And knowing that that [...0.9s] incredibly strong energy of love [...0.5s] never dies, that it is always available to us. I love that love never dies.Love never dies. I love that statement. [...1.3s] It is so true. And I am like, so, so thankful that we have been brought on this path together. And I also think like there's such amazing synergies with [...0.7s] the people that we have attracted into our respective orbits as well.I just noticed that, you know, your audience, [...0.5s] there's crossover between the people that we've, you know, brought in and magnetized into our worlds. But then we also have our own sub segments too.Exactly, exactly. And, you know um, from the former community we were in, I had people reaching out saying, you know, they were always drawn to you and I, they were always drawn to you and I and they never knew why. And then here we are creating this community for others.And it's like, so everyone has a little bit of that psychic intuition to them. They don't know the why, but they, they know that, you know, they were drawn to each of our energies and then, and then we came together and now they're a part of our community and it's a beautiful space.And, um, I, yeah, I just feel so grateful to be here and to be the co founder of the Soul Revival with you, Lindsay. Ditto ditto, ditto.Haha. And I would say that, um, late, it's interesting too. So late last year, I was actually getting nudges and a lot of things were shifting in my life. And some of it was, you know, could have been perceived as a challenge, but I knew that the doors that were closing were making ways for the doors that were gonna be opening. And that is 100% [...0.5s] happened.And it's so interesting because [...0.8s] late last year, I remember thinking like, I don't know what it's gonna look like, but I feel like the timing of all this is [...0.7s] divine and that you and I are gonna be doing something.I don't know what it is. I don't know when it is, but I feel like all the stars were aligning at that point to make something happen between us.So it's so interesting now fast forwarding into spring of 2025 and watching, which also has intentionality like the winter and the closing of the season and, um you know, the deaths of some of the things that were in my life and transition of things that were in both of our lives.Um, those doors closing, those sees, that season shutting down and, um, [...0.6s] turning into a [...0.5s] beautiful rebirth that LED us to where we are today.And I feel like [...0.7s] how amazing is it [...1.0s] that we're launching this in spring of 2025? I mean that, like, how perfect, how energetically perfect to be, like allowing this to blossom [...0.5s] at that time of the year.It's beautiful and it's being in the oven flow, so I love that you saying like doors closed, because, um, I had a pretty door, pretty big door closed, and I was very [...0.9s] upset about it.It hurt my heart and, um, spirit was like, autumn, just wait, just wait. There's so much, there's something so much bigger on the other side. And in spirit was dropping like nuggets to me that this was gonna happen. So I, I was prepared, um, but the way that it all, kind of just happened.It, it hurt my heart, and, um, that's okay, that's okay. Um, and [...0.6s] then, you know, the door closed, I just, I just let it happen, I let it happen, and I just stayed in Evan Flow. I stayed meditating, I didn't attach to what was happening. I didn't say it was happening to me because it was actually happening for me.And I just wanna say rejection is redirection. And sometimes that redirection is something way bigger than you could ever even imagine.And, um, so if something happens to you and, and you're asking yourself why me, why me that big, why that Lindsay was dating earlier, you may not have the answers, but open yourself up to all the possibilities that they're bringing in, and don't close yourself off because [...0.6s] they have something better planned. Rejection is just redirection.Yeah, that's 100% true. And I had, there are some a door closing that I knew was gonna be closing, um, most of last year actually. That, um, was [...1.2s] very near and dear to my heart as well, and, um, very different than what autumn was experiencing, but definitely emotionally charged.I knew that it was for a reason [...1.4s] and back to the duality piece, it also hurts. So I think, but, you know, we have to, [...0.6s] to autumn's point, be open to having those things, [...1.3s] having those challenges, having those experiences where doors do close or we don't get the yes when we wanted the yes.Because there is something bigger available to us that we don't see, but the other side sees and all the pieces are falling into place for us for it to be like in perfect divine timing.So you might not see the big picture, but God source your angels. They see the big picture and they're making all the things available to you that are meant for you. And [...0.5s] sometimes we as humans, uh, like to stay in comfort and comfort does not equal growth or expansion.And so we have to go through some discomfort and sometimes it can be some really strong discomfort [...0.6s] to get expanded to where we, you know, we are now.And I know that was 100% my experience last year and then leading into this year, I went through a lot of just very strong painful discomfort, especially at the end of last year.And now it is shifted completely into [...0.6s] this amazing rebirth. And what was, what's available to me now is so much more expansive, but the only way I could get there was to go through the uncomfort, so [...0.5s] comforts not your friend.Sometimes, like, we need to do that deep that deep work, that deep clearing work, and [...0.5s] allow even just the universe to clear things out of our path that are meant for us ultimately.A lot of times things are stepping stone, and they're leading to the next path that's meant for you. And so being open and willing to explore what that looks like, [...0.9s] and, and to bring it back around.I believe this is why meditation is so important. Because when you're in that oneness energy, when you're in that [...0.6s] unity energy, um, it really helps dissolve the ego.So sometimes when you're trying to step out of your comfort zone, you're like frozen in time because your ego is like, no, all these bad things can happen. Um, but through meditation and, and dissolving that ego, you're like, but what if [...1.0s] it could change my life?But what if in all those thoughts become like a positive thought rather than the fearbase thought? And so another pinpoint of why meditation is so important. Yes, really good point, really good point, and I did not talk about it on episode 1, but meditation is such a huge part of my daily practice.And we talk about meditation and we'll get into this. This will be definitely its own episode, but you don't have to commit to some crazy long meditation. You could do a five minute meditation and it's a game changer.It's very interesting. So prior to Rogers passing, I had never meditated. And [...0.6s] I, [...0.8s] like I intuitively or he called me to, but I started meditating like almost immediately after he passed.And it literally was the link to allow me to sleep. I am somebody who's mind is always going a million miles a minute, and so I always struggle with shutting down my, my mind to be able to get good sleep.And meditation has been a game changer for me to getting good sleep, which is the foundation of all things good, right?So, yeah, meditation meditation, meditation, and the more, [...1.1s] not just with meditation, but the more we implement these practices, and it starts to shift the way we deal with challenges and makes us [...1.0s] able to navigate them [...0.7s] faster, easier [...0.6s] with less, uh, restrictive energy, less fighting energy and more flow energy. And that makes a huge difference.I'm really excited for that episode cause I could talk about meditating for, for a very long time. I feel like there's so many different modalities that, that correlates the same, um, space as meditation as well. So I'm excited for that episode, [...1.0s] 100%.Well, thank you for joining us for episode 2. I, hopefully you got as much joy as we have, uh, hearing about how we co created this space together.Every day that we talk about what we've built together, what we are building together, the joy between autumn and I is literally palpable.
