Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the alignment show. I feel like we're on a good roll here with all of these episodes building upon each other. And this week we are back with another incredible episode to help you understand just like truly the bane of your existence, like why your biggest struggle just keeps happening over and over and over again. Like simply will not leave you alone because there is so much more that is happening behind the scenes, and it's gonna give you a lot of clarity on first of all, just like not crashing out about this recurring problem, and then give you some really good insight into solving it for good. So today we're gonna be talking about recurring soul lessons. And if you have not heard of these before, then you're in the right spot. And if you have heard of them before, today might even get you more clarity. So basically, the goal with this episode is to just help you on like a human level be able to zoom out and understand why you keep experiencing the same challenge, the same problem, obstacle, reflection. Okay, if you know you know, and I know you know about reflections, uh, why you're experiencing the same ones over and over again and like what's actually happening. And I have found personally that knowing this information has put so much into perspective and just like actually motivated me to move through these things a lot quicker, which by the way, we're gonna talk about timelines. It's gonna blow your freaking mind how much faster you can move through these obstacles once you have the right information that we will be getting today. Um, rather than just trying to like avoid the problem, ignore it, like not think about it, just move move past it. I hate that. Like, I'm just gonna try and move past it. If you're saying that about your reflections, good luck because they are just gonna get louder. Okay. And I don't want that for you because I've done that enough for the both of us. So that's really our end goal with today. And the thing is, once you do start moving through these and you've got the knowledge on what the heck is actually happening, you're gonna open up even more of your potentials with things like career and finances and relationships and just everything that you are built for in this life. So I feel like we're ready. I feel like you're saying, okay, Melissa, let's dive in, let's get the frick after it. We're ready. And fine, we'll do it. That's what we are here for. So a lot of people will think like you just have one big destiny, and what's they'll think that like what's actually happening is that that's all you came here to do, but there's actually a lot of things that you came here to do. And that is what you will hear me refer to as the soul path, soul pull. And what is included in that are things that the soul and the higher self want to accomplish in a lifetime, and those end up being part of your soul path, soul pull. So it's not just like you have one destiny, you actually have infinite possibilities, right? Because if you know anything about the quantum field, it's that all possibilities exist at the same time, just in different timelines and realities, etc. But you don't even have to get your brain all warped into the quantum physics of things, okay? I just want us to be clear that okay, there's actually a lot of things that are part of the soul path soul pull. And we could do like a whole episode on that someday, which I'm sure that we will. But this is like the picture that we are working with here. Now, before I go a little bit further, I want to elaborate on basically what's the difference between the soul and the higher self. So to keep it really simple, the soul has all of your knowledge from all of your past lives. So the soul is always, always with you, whereas the higher self is the version of you without limiting beliefs in this specific lifetime. So your soul is always with you throughout all of the lifetimes. The soul is what is gaining frequency and consciousness points and going through the school to get back to source. Higher self, you get a new one in every life. But what's really important to understand is before we come down here, and we're gonna get into this today, the soul designs the life. Source is obviously a part of this too, and then your higher self also designs your life. So there's like a little committee meeting happening before we all come down here into physical bodies, and we're gonna talk more about that today. So, kind of, I don't know, dovetailing off of that. If you guys remember episode 109 on consciousness, we have so much knowledge before we actually come into this physical life. And we are here to take that knowledge and put it into practice. So remember, energy cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes forms. And so our light body, our soul, existed before this physical body, before this lifetime, and it's going to exist after. Okay, and what it's doing in every single lifetime is gathering and storing knowledge through experience as a human, right? And if you remember from that episode, we talked about I don't remember the exact number, but you can look up the studies or whatever where they clocked the weight of someone right before they crossed over and right after they crossed over. And um basically the difference was the person was a little bit lighter after they crossed over. So it's like, okay, something left. Yeah, it was the soul. So the soul actually weighs something, it's a tiny, tiny amount. It's like grams, it's like measured in grams, but anyways, just like a fun little scientific fact for you there, based on what we already know intuitively and energetically, and from source and from our own experiences. So, getting into this higher self chose to create a physical body for this lifetime, right? In very specific ways with very specific tools and attributes and qualities, all on purpose. Okay, what's the purpose? To help with our soul path, soul pull. So, like I mentioned earlier, that's going to include what we came here to do in this life. It also includes soul contracts, it includes raising the frequency of the planet and hitting the highest levels of happiness and fulfillment once we hit these super high potentials that we are built for. Okay, now the higher self has access to so much more information than our human selves even realize. And the higher self also has intentions for each lifetime. Now, what's really fun is you can use intuition to look at past lives and figure out anything you want to figure out about them. Like, were you rich? Were you poor? Were you famous? Were you an influential person? Did you change the world in a big way, in a small way? Did you have kids? Did you invent something? Like, what were the intentions for those lives? And you can actually train your intuition and go pull that stuff, which is really fun. Um, but it's it's also a lot. So that's just a side note. But coming into the human side of this, humans are very short-sighted. Like, we don't tend to consider the big picture when making decisions until you start learning this work and remembering everything that your soul has archived and also expanding your consciousness in this life. But before we do that work, we're just not really thinking about the big picture, right? So, for example, maybe it's something like, let's go with like eating a whole pint of ice cream. Maybe you're just like tired, lazy, you don't feel like cooking a whole nutrient-dense meal for dinner. And so your fight or fly system says, ooh, that would be really delicious. It would give us quick energy, like we could be a full power with this thing. And so then the human falls into the temptation. And then you eat the whole pint of ice cream, and then you don't feel good after, and then it goes down this whole thing. Well, the more evolved part of us has the ability to look at the bigger picture and realize that that pint of ice cream actually is addictive, and we're only gonna feel good for like 20, 30 minutes after we eat it, but then it's gonna spiral us into possible bad behaviors, like binging ice cream every week, every night, whatever. Maybe now you've had nine months of terrible nutrition, you're spiking your insulin, you're dysregulating your blood sugar, like taking time off your life because of it, gaining 25 pounds. At that point, we gotta go back and we gotta figure out where it all started, right? And unless you have the teachings on this stuff and a trained intuition, it's gonna be a little difficult to figure out where did I go wrong? Right? It's the same thing with like money. You know, if you take a job that pays well, but you know in six months you're gonna be moving somewhere, then I guarantee you your financial reflections that you're not solving right now, you're just taking this job as a band-aid to pay, you know, the bills and like give you some more money for the next six months, those financial reflections are gonna be louder in six months. You're gonna have the same problems but bigger. I promise you, because you're not actually shifting the route. Okay, so that's just another example. So that's one part of this puzzle. The next thing here, soul contracts. What are they? Man, there's so much we could go into with soul contracts, but essentially they are agreements between souls, okay, where we agree to fulfill certain roles at different times, different places, etc., right? And this could look any infinite number of ways. You could agree to be a leader, you could agree to be a teacher or an inventor, or maybe you're helping animals, maybe you are teaching others through your relationships, right? Now, if you are a higher frequency, higher conscious, older soul, which you are because you're listening to this, older souls tend to pick bigger things, okay, when it comes to soul contracts. Things like creating global movements, changing ways of thinking, essentially paving the way for younger souls. Okay, so just spoiler alert, your soul is not playing around. You've got some big contracts in place, and it's very exciting. And the world, quite literally, the world, needs you to step up and be in the most evolved, expanded, conscious place so that you can fulfill these contracts and change the world in the way that you agreed to. Okay, I know it's crazy. The zoom out is crazy, but it also puts just so much into perspective. So here's the problem from our human point of view. Most people think in terms of goals. They're thinking, like, what do I have to do to get what I want? And so they are under this mindset of what do I need to learn or study or master? Like, what certifications do I need? How many hours do I have to work? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, so that I can have blank, so that I can have a seven-figure business, so that I can have the perfect relationship, so that I can travel the world, a business class whenever I want, like whatever it is, right? People are like, just tell me what to do, I'll do it so I can have it. But then when you give them the source truth of like, oh, well, you've got to learn this work and you've got to put your ego aside and you've got to swallow really hard pills and you've got to, you know, purge some things from your life and do this shadow work as they call it. And you, and you've got to earn the right to have what you want. People are like, no, no, no, I that's not what I meant. Just tell me what what course to take and I'll do it. And you know what? We will be there for them when they are ready to earn the right. Not that a course won't be part of it, but you get what I'm saying. So this mindset here, it's just a limited piece of the full picture, right? Of what it takes to attain your dreams and goals and wishes and all that stuff. I mean, think about it. Like everywhere we look, it's just it's promised to us where it's like, learn the skill set and you'll get what you want. You see it in sponsored ads all the time, like content strategy, learn this clawed code, DM me the word AI script to train your AI to do that. It's everywhere, right? And then what happens is you fall for it. Maybe not you, maybe you know someone who has, or you know, maybe you have done it in the past, but you fall for it. So you put this thing into practice, and then it doesn't give you the result, right? It's it's like these people all over social media right now where it's like, I grew my account from zero to 300,000 followers in 90 days using this clawed prompt. And it's like, okay, here's why we've got to train our intuition. Because if you look in at these people who grow their accounts really fast, you're probably gonna find that it was in their soul plan. They actually don't know scientifically, energetically how they did that, they just know that they did, and their human brain likes to make assumptions and give things meaning and say, oh, my account grew from zero to 300,000 in 90 days because uh I did this clawed prompt and it did my content form. Like, and that's just not if you really want to know how these things work and how people are creating what they're creating, you've got to train your intuition and you've got to read their fields and figure it out. Because most of these get rich quick overnight success people, it's a soul plan thing. And unless and until they learn the energetics behind the creator field and what it takes to not only create something but then sustain it, they're going to fumble it. They will fumble it every single time. That is guaranteed by energetics by laws. Okay. And I can tell you personally, I have fumbled some really cool things that didn't feel so great when I dropped them. And that's why I'm so committed now to building a bulletproof foundation brick by brick. I would rather expand and hold it. Expand and hold it. Expand and hold it. That is what I want for you guys. I do not, I do not want to scale my business too fast. I don't want a hundred clients knocking down my door all of a sudden. I don't want to grow so fast that I miss something energetically, and then there's a crack in what I'm building that's gonna screw me later. Okay, like I've been through that. It was not fun. I zero out of ten recommend, and that's I don't want that for you, so that's why we're doing the podcast in this way. Okay. So coming back here to this mindset of like, well, what do I need to learn to get the result? Then you try and learn something, it doesn't get you the result. Okay, well, again, intuition, we can find out what's going on with your blueprint, figure out what you're missing, but most people don't do this. And I want to share a little story here as an example of where I was like, okay, if I invest in this thing, it's gonna solve my problems. So before I go into this, it's gonna be about investing in a mastermind. I have zero negative words to say about this mastermind. Okay. I am so incredibly fond of the person who runs it. I am so incredibly impressed by everything that was on the inside, the systems, the trainings, the structures, literally everything I learned, all the value I received from it, I would not change this. Okay. However, here's what, here's where my brain was when I decided, okay, I'm gonna invest in this. So at the time, I was like, my business is doing okay, but I'm just feeling like, you know, I'm in the middle of this pivot and I really would like some professional support. I can definitely uh do this right now because I felt like I'm kind of toward the end of my plan here. Like I don't really know where I'm going from here. I have the vision, I don't know how to do it, whatever, whatever. So I'm like, okay, I'm gonna invest in this mastermind. And when I intuitively tested it a bunch of different ways, I did get yes across the board. So again, it's not like I got nothing out of it. That's not the case at all. I got a lot out of it. But what ended up happening is it was a year-long mastermind, and I was going through so many of my own reflections. I was pivoting the business. There was a lot happening that needed to happen. And even with intuition, there were just things I was missing, things I was ignoring. Like it happens to anybody, even when you train your intuition. If you're highly emotional about something, and by highly emotional, I mean more than like 17% emotional, you will start manipulating your intuitive answers. Okay, so even if I'm asking intuitive questions, it's about my business, which is my baby, which I'm highly, you know, driven by and it's one of my highest values. I really, really care about it. Of course I'm gonna be emotional, you know. So I probably wasn't pulling the best intuitive information at that time, but it all needed to happen just so I could be the person and you know, teacher mentor that I am now. And it's it's it always comes full circle because I've got people with me now who go who are going through the same thing I went through, but they're not as deep in the trenches, and I'm able to prevent them from having to go to those deep of trenches, if that makes sense. Like it all made me better. But what ended up happening was by the time that the year had passed, I'm at the end of the mastermind, I was actually making less than what I was when I started the mastermind. So anybody who hasn't trained their intuition to look into this stuff would look at that and say, Oh, that's a bad investment. I didn't get the result that I hoped for, aka scaling my business to a bajillion dollars within a few months. And so, yeah, just bad, horrible, wrong. Well, then you clock that into your brain as bad, horrible, wrong, and then it gets put into your creator field, and then you create more reflections from it. So thank God for intuition and going through that experience because I have been able to extract so many valuable, like highly valuable things, lessons, experiences, trainings, like all of it from that mastermind experience. I am not mad that I invested in it. I'm sure this is like very clear to you by now, but I just really want to paint that picture because so many people go wrong of just like, oh, that sucks. Like, I'm only gonna see the negatives of this. And then guess what? You create more reflections from that. So, anyways, that's just one example of okay, I was under this mindset of what do I need to do? Oh, I'll invest in this mastermind, it'll solve my problems. And it didn't solve all my problems. Okay, so moving into the next little section here that I want to talk about is basically like what's going on when we choose a life before we come down here in a physical body. So we're talking about mastery here, okay, and the definition of mastery is having knowledge and demonstrating that knowledge and really knowing everything there is to know about the thing that we are mastering, right? And what happens when we are picking a life or designing it is that the soul self is here with the knowledge of what it wants to gain a physical mastery over. Now, there are like so many things that we can master, like tons and tons and tons of lessons that we could choose from. So you might be thinking, oh, like I want to master finances or like I want to master career or relationships. Okay, within every area of life, there's like a I don't even want to put a number on it, just it could be infinite, like so many little threads and nuances that we can master. Okay, but that's what the soul self is deciding when it is designing a life. Now, here's the thing as humans, we don't take action unless there is a massive fire under our ace, or we're faced with an obstacle, right? Because When we overcome obstacles, they just have a way of upgrading us better than anything else. And that's why the system of reflections is so perfect. Whatever you are going through and is the bane of your existence, and you would rather do anything else, you would rather struggle in any other way. I promise you, what you are gonna get upgraded from that reflection as long as you work through it and shift it, you couldn't learn it anywhere else. I could not learn the ingredients and have the creator feel that I do now if a year ago I wasn't hitting rock freaking bottom as an entrepreneur. It just I simply could not be here, like where I'm at now with career and finances and self-image and like my life, just every part of my life. Okay. The more that we can realize that of like, yeah, it sucks. It sucks on a human level. I'm going through this, but I know I'm gonna be okay, and I know I'm upgrading with this, and I'm actually accessing my potentials way quicker than if I just didn't work through this stuff right now, that is when it actually starts to feel better. Okay, so at this point when we're designing the life, the soul has all of this knowledge and it wants to experience everything on the spectrum of a soul lesson. So if you look at different lifetimes for a soul, you're always gonna find a pendulum swing. Maybe, for example, it's like you were really poor in one lifetime, and maybe then in another lifetime, you were the wealthiest king in that other lifetime, right? Like the soul, we can only experience like the highs to the degree that we've experienced the lows. And with mastery, the soul wants to know everything there is to know. It wants to experience everything there is to experience. So that means living lives across the entire spectrum. Now, the soul has an idea of how something works, and when it finds something that it knows will create the biggest expansion of consciousness, it will structure a whole life around it. For example, maybe your soul lesson is learning to love yourself no matter what, no matter who says anything to you. Maybe the whole world could be telling you you're wrong, but you're so grounded in your self-love that it doesn't matter. You're still gonna love yourself anyway. Now, what's happening though, when we decide, okay, here's what I want to master, there are going to be a shite ton of obstacles set up for us. Okay, and again, it's because the soul it doesn't half-ass anything, right? It wants the highest level of understanding, and whatever the soul wants to learn then becomes the recurring soul lesson. Now, guess how many lifetimes it takes to master a recurring soul lesson. I'll just let you think on it. We've got like a spectrum here. It depends how big it is, right? But it takes anywhere between one and ten lifetimes to go through the full spectrum of experience and gain the physical mastery. Wild, right? And yes, you can use intuition to look in on what's your recurring soul lesson currently. You can see what lifetime you are in for it, you can see what you've mastered in the past, you can see what timeline you're on for how many lifetimes it's gonna take. But what's really fun is you can also speed this up, which we will talk about here in a little bit. So don't worry. Now, the only way to master, for example, learning to love yourself is learning to love yourself when things are very difficult. And the soul knows this, the soul understands that perfectly fine, but the human hates it, right? The human does not understand this until you find yourself learning these things. And the soul knows that through challenge and obstacles and reflections and lessons, we become the true master. The soul knows that, right? But the human just wants the easiest road. The human generally doesn't care about mastery, like we just want to have an easy easy life, right? Everyone's like, I'm tired, I'm so tired. It's like, yeah, dude, your soul is old and it's like really up to a lot. It really wants to master things and they're not small things. So, how is this soul mastery presented, right? How is it built into the lifetime? Well, when the soul is meeting up with source and with higher self to design a lifetime, the soul basically creates this perfect run to focus on the lesson, the recurring lesson, at every turn by looking at future timelines, right? And constructing them. Also, we've got the soul contracts being factored in that are being created with different souls, with different soul family to make sure that the physical experiences happen to get the mastery. The soul makes sure that this stuff is going to happen via soul contracts. Now, yes, humans have free will. And also, when you learn this work and you expand your consciousness and you wake up and you remember all of these things from your soul archives, you don't even have to be consciously aware of it to fulfill a soul contract. Okay, think about people with with like, um, if like traumatic events happen between people, those people like might not even realize what they're doing, right? But because it was in the soul contract, it was already prearranged. Okay, so that's just a side note on contracts. Now, as far as this being built into the lifetime, let's go through that. Typically, between the age of like four and seven, is when this first soul lesson will show up. And it's gonna come up at like a low level that at that point in our lives, when we're just a little kid, right? It feels like the biggest deal in the world. But as adults, we can look back and realize, oh, okay, that like wasn't a big deal at all. We overlook it, we don't see how it was connected. But maybe going through this today, we'll actually get some some clicks for you, some like light bulb moments. So let's say at like five years old, the lesson just gets the best of us. Okay, we lose out, we don't love ourselves, we don't feel special, and it sticks with us. So then it creates this need of, well, I'm gonna get this, for example, like love, unconditional love of myself somewhere else, right? And then we're we're putting so much drive into that need and so much focus, like directly, indirectly, into how am I gonna get this love somewhere else? So, five-year-old, this this lesson goes through the stages of mastery where we feel like we aren't special, and then instead of loving ourselves no matter what, we get to the point of I can't love myself and I can't have love, so now I want something else. And if we don't overcome the lesson at this level, then we start to learn, which this is not the truth, right? But this is going into the belief system and then into the creator field. We learn that we're not special. And the universe starts schooling us via situations, people, events, circumstances to learn the tools we need to actually love ourselves. Okay, so let's say that's you're five years old, that's the lesson, you don't learn it. Cool. Then we're gonna have another cycle come up. Maybe when we're six years old, maybe it's a year later. And maybe we've learned a lot over the last year, but we didn't really like lock in, right? We weren't like aware of what was happening. So we miss the lesson again. And maybe this time it presents in a different situation. So let's say at age five, it's you're not feeling unconditional love from a parent because you've got two other siblings and you're the middle child, and so you're always competing for like attention, and that's like created this narrative in your head that you don't feel loved. Well, then maybe at age six, there's gonna be a new curriculum, and it's gonna be based on your creator field pulling in the right people, the right situations to grow. And the circumstances are gonna change based on what the six-year-old is focused on. So let's say at age six, you're like, okay, I'm not so worried about my parents anymore because I've got this problem over there, so now I'm gonna focus on my friends. So if friends are the biggest focus, it's gonna show up as a friend not feeling like we are special. And then they turn off their love toward us, they start being mean to us, and then we go through it again. Okay, and these are these cycles that'll keep coming up. And if we don't come out on top, then our desire to overcome it gets a little bit bigger, right? It's like, ooh, this is really making me mad, really making me mad. I want to figure this out. Then it's gonna start affecting the creator field even more. And guess what the creator field does? It pulls in the perfect people, places, things, aka what I like to call the perfect villains, to indirectly educate us. Okay, and we're gonna expand on that in a moment. Well, maybe now we're seven years old. Okay, so we end up in this cycle again. We're going for round three. Maybe now there's a critical teacher, like a hyper-critical teacher who sees our potentials, but just um not like intentionally insults us, but just talks about all the things that we're doing wrong.

Right.

SPEAKER_00 32:37

And it's like, dude, now I don't feel loved by this teacher, right? So those are just a few examples of how this can show up. And maybe you are already recalling where these cycles could have come up for you. Now, here's the deal. It would be like a total miracle to overcome it in like the third round, truly. We need a lot of cycles of this to actually learn what is happening. But once you overcome it, then you graduate to level two. How fun, right? That was just level one. So the same pattern, once you are in level two, the same pattern will happen again, but it's gonna be in a different area of life. And it's gonna have the same core lesson that we've got to overcome in each situation. And so this whole like school system basically of the cycles within the levels for the soul lesson, it's gonna go on for as many lifetimes as it takes to get the mastery. Okay, and I will give you an example of this from my current lifetime that was just like, oh, learning this stuff just put so much into perspective. So, some of you guys have probably heard me tell the story before, but when I was in first grade, I got tested for and put into the academically talented program. So it's called AT at my school. I know different schools call it different things, but whatever, the gifted program. And on the inside, I thought that this was so cool. I was like so lit up by it. I felt really special, like I felt cool. I felt like I knew some things. I just I felt special, I guess, was like the biggest thing. But on the outside, all of my friends, they were telling me, like, oh, Melissa thinks she's so cool. Like Melissa thinks she's the best, and like she's bossy and she's a know-it-all, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So then I took that on as like, oh my gosh, I don't want to be the odd man out, right? Like, we're so young, we're in that tribal mindset. Like, I'll do whatever it takes to fit in. So then what did I start doing? I started playing down or like downplaying how smart I was and like my gifts. Okay. Like I was really, really, really good at school, obviously. Like it just always came naturally to me. Um, I was one of those people. Like, that's just that's my freaking soul's journey, okay? And when I was little, I was just like, oh, I'll just play dumb. Like people would ask to copy my homework, and I would just tell them, like, yeah, I don't know if it's right, but like I guess you can. And I never wanted them to copy it because I didn't want to get in trouble. I hated it. And I also felt like I did all this work and you just get a copy of it. Like, that's not fair. But on the outside, I was like, yeah, sure, I don't know if it's right, but you can copy it, knowing damn well in my head it's right. But I was just so like conflicted because I wanted to fit in. So, what do we think this lesson was for me? Oh, probably something around embracing how special and unique I am, right? All around self-image. But I played this story out. I am not even kidding you, until like probably a few years ago. Like, it's crazy. I can remember being in high school and having to go to it wasn't called AT in high school. I don't remember what it was called, but you know, I had like a class hour where instead of being in whatever class everybody was in, I had to go down and do like ACT prep or whatever. And it was like a continuation of the gifted program. And I just hated it. I was like, God, I hate going in there. I would try and skip it all the time. Like, our when and when I was little, I would like hide so I wouldn't have to get on the bus to go to AT. And like I had friends in AT, and I loved my friends in AT. Like, we were homies through through high school, you know what I mean? But it's just like my other friends that weren't in it, it just it was a whole thing, right? With my soul lesson. So this was almost my whole life, you guys. Like this, I did not really like root into my self-image until like rather recently in the grand scheme of things, you know what I'm saying? So that's just an example for you. Maybe you can relate, maybe you're on the other side of it, who knows? But I'm sure that listening to this information, you are going to start recalling, oh my gosh, this is what happened. These were my cycles, this has got to be my lesson. Okay, so the goal here with all of this is to complete a cycle in like the the smallest chunk of this, right? You want to get through a cycle. And so it might look like, okay, we're going through level two, we're overcoming it. Cool. Now we're in level three. Well, maybe we're repeating level three with 45 cycles, right? And don't get caught up in the words. It's just, I'm just using words. Use whatever works for you. But let's say you got to repeat level three like 45 times. Okay, now we've overcome it. Now we're in level four. Well, now we're old as a human, so we're about to cross over. So then we cross over. So then all of this progress gets transferred to the next life, where we repeat the recurring soul lesson. But don't worry, we're not going all the way back down to ground zero, back to level one, cycle one, none of that. We might backtrack like just a little bit, but again, not ground zero because you've got all this knowledge and experience and you're working on your mastery, all of that gets stored in your soul. Okay, basically in your soul archives. So here's the deal with these lessons. Every soul comes here with at least one of these that repeats and goes through cycles level one through ten. Well, what happens when you get to 10? And also what is happening inside level 10? Should I be worried? Well, the soul and the higher self consider mastery as going all the way through level 10, right? Graduating, and completing the entire lesson. Now, what's going on in level 10? Well, an example might be if your lesson is learning to love yourself no matter what, from a genuine place, you can't fake it, you're not gonna fool the universe. Maybe you've got to live a life where you're the most hated person in the world. Maybe you get big time canceled, and this is your final trial of, hey, are you really gonna master this lesson? Are you gonna give in? And you will live that one as many times. I'm laughing because I'm sure it's happened for all of us. I'd rather not look into that one for myself. But it's this final trial of like, okay, you gonna master this or not? And I don't know about you, but I'd rather just get it over with. So that is what that can look like. Now, why is this important to know? Well, when we don't overcome a soul lesson, it is like having. I had a different analogy for this, but I like the original one that I heard the best. So I'm gonna go with the original one because I really do think it's the best analogy. I I don't like any of the the other ones I came up with. So, okay, when we don't overcome a soul lesson, it's like having a, you know, freaking super yacht that can like go really fast. It's like super upgraded, everything is best of the best. But all of these soul lessons that just keep repeating, they become, they're like anchors. Okay, so maybe you've got like 12 anchors off the freaking super yacht, and they're just obviously weighing you down. You can't experience the full power of the super yacht and like enjoy it and go fast and get where you're going and like have all the experiences, right? Because you've got these damn anchors just keeping you in one spot. So the anchors are blocks. Okay. And unless and until we overcome the soul lesson, there will be a block, if not multiple. And those blocks are things that wire so deeply into our creator field, which then turns everything around us, right? People, places, things, situations, events, circumstances. Creator field turns everything around us into reflections, and it's just gonna cycle through the areas where we are paying the most attention. Okay? AKA what matters most to us. So maybe it's money, maybe it's career, maybe it's family, maybe it's your health. It will jump around to whatever your highest value is where you're paying the most attention. For example, you guys, this is just like a canon event in my life. You're just always gonna hear me reference this because it was such a big thing in like my soul's mastery journey. But 2025, you've probably heard me say this before, unless you're new here. And if you're new here, welcome. You're gonna hear this a lot, probably. I call 2025 my personal Great Depression, okay, mentally and financially. I was not in a good place. And what was happening was my finances were just I was at rock bottom as an entrepreneur. Okay, I was making the least amount of money I'd ever made as an entrepreneur, and for context, I've been an entrepreneur for eight years and I scaled multiple businesses to six figures, one of them to multiple six figures. Okay, so that really effed me up after having that experience of so much quote unquote success and then making like not very much money at certain points in 2025. But mentally, in most of the year, I was I was not okay. But here's the thing: I did not have money problems. Okay, it was not a money problem, it was self-worth problems that got, guess what, reflected in finances. Why? Because that's all I was focused on. That's all I was paying attention to. I was not pouring my energy into other areas of life because I was so focused on finances. Like my brain and body were in fight or flight 24-7 for months on end, quite literally thinking, if I don't make more money this month, I'm gonna die. It that sounds so dramatic, but the brain like really knows how to make things dramatic. And then your body, as we know, through neuroscience, it follows suit in a matter of 30 minutes. So imagine like eight plus months of that. Yeah, your girl was not in a good place. But again, it got me to where I am now, so I can help you guys not have to go there. And I, you know what? I feel like there are so many times where I've just like, all right, I'll take one for the team. And you know what? I'll keep taking them for the team because it is so worth it. Like my soul just eats it up, you know? My human does not, but my soul does. So, anyways, that's just one example of how things get reflected to us where we're paying the most attention. Okay. Now, I want to go back to talking about the full spectrum of the soul lesson and the experiences that we're having. So When we get to one side of the spectrum, like not being able to love ourselves at all, we're just like so in the trenches with self-love, something happens. And that something is gonna be the creator field pulling in the perfect villain to get us to flip. Okay, somebody else has got to come up to us and be a bigger villain than our internal villain. So maybe they're gonna say like just awful, horrible things to us, where we finally choose differently. We grow a backbone, we stand up for ourselves, and we say, you know what, you're not gonna talk to me like that. And we start to talk nicer to ourselves. We decide, oh my gosh, you know what? I don't deserve that. Boom. Self-love's coming up just a little bit, right? And then it's gonna have this snowball effect because we've got to experience the other side of the spectrum. Is it linear? No, you're probably gonna go up, down, all around, but that's okay. That's the human experience. The thing is, we need some kind of challenge, aka perfect villain comes straight up to our face and talks mad shit to force us to do something different. Okay, it's it's like you've gotta hit rock bottom to choose differently. And that's just how humans are wired. Like, yes, you can hack this with intuition, but humans are just so motivated by pain. And like, if it's in the soul contract and it's gonna get you more growth than hacking it with intuition, you've just gotta experience it. So, like, even if you've got all the right tools, sometimes you just gotta hit rock bottom. You've you just got to because why? The only way is up, right? You're gonna have to do something different once you're down there. There's no other option. Like when you get your back against the wall, I want you to think about a time in your life, and I bet you've got so many times in your life where you've had your back against the wall and you have somehow just whipped things around like crazy and come out on top. I can think of multiple times in like my business where I've done that. And like, it's not fun. I would prefer not to, you know, and I've I've thankfully, hopefully mastered that one. But that was literally me in 2025. I just had to hit rock bottom to learn what I needed to learn. Okay, so trust if you're really going through it at any point, save this episode and come back to it. This it's just gonna help you not crash out maybe like a fraction as difficult or as hard. Okay, so coming back to these mindsets, it is not just study harder, train harder, work more, learn more skills, get a certification, learn Claude code, get an AI degree or what, like just it's not it's not that. Okay, those things do not matter when you have a block, those things do not cut ties with the anchors, right? I we've got to stop getting caught up in all of that. Now, thinking to those blocks, what do they do again? Well, they are putting scripts into our creator field. Our creator field then hands out those scripts to everyone and everything around us. And then our creator field pulls in the perfect people and the perfect villains that matter to us. So we're gonna pay attention to what they say, who will then act out the script? And it's gonna cut you so deep that it forces you to choose differently, to actually stand up for yourself. But you wouldn't do that if it was someone who wasn't important to you. If it's a stranger on the street that tells you you look like shit, you're like, yeah, okay, maybe it bothers you a little bit, but it's not gonna get you to change the imbalance. Aka, it'd be you calling yourself telling yourself you look like shit. But if it's someone really close to you and they're hypercritical of you and it's like totally out of character, you're gonna realize, hmm, there is something seriously off here. Let me figure out what it is through reflections. Okay. And we've got episodes on reflections. So if you haven't listened to those yet, go to those. Um, they're gonna be in the after episode 100, so you're close. Um so here's the thing: the things that we want most in life, they're going to be unattainable until we change the script. That's just how it works. It's how the creator field works, it's how the laws work. You're not gonna change anything until you change your scripts, until you change your creator field. So, with knowing all of this now, you're probably wondering what is the first thing to do? Well, we've got to remove the blocks. We've got to cut ties with all those anchors, dude. Like, there are literally people with a fraction of your talent, your skills, your abilities that are in these like massive, super well-paid roles. Why? Because they're not hard on themselves. Like they truly believe their shit is the best, even though like they're so underqualified, what they're teaching might be just like totally off, right? Maybe their product actually like objectively sucks. It's not helping people. But they, because they are so locked in and they truly believe that they are the best or their stuff is the best, they're not beating themselves up. Okay, guess what? Their creator field handing out scripts, buy my shit because I'm the best. And then they make 80 bajillion dollars. It's wild. So you'll you've got that side, and then you'll see people who are like so gifted, so highly conscious, so high frequency, who can't even get their business off the ground. Because why? Because of these blocks, because they're so hard on themselves. And this happens to spiritual people. Like, you guys are so hard on, and not just you guys, I do it too. Like, we're all so hard on ourselves, and it it all comes down to the creator field. It comes down to those scripts. So, understanding all of this, this is the way to create a successful life and guarantee that things work. We've got to find the blocks, we've got to remove the blocks, and then your goals become easy because you could actually be underqualified and still have an amazing career. Like, even though you know, you actually are so qualified. So why not just unleash the full weight of your qualification for what you came here to do? Right now, the thing is, it's it is difficult to do this without intuition. I'm just gonna be straight up with you. Um, you've also got to have emotional mastery skills, you've got to know universal laws, you definitely need to know how the brain works. And like I mentioned earlier, even if you have all that stuff, if your emotions are 17% or higher, like if you are, if you care about something at least 17%, which you're gonna care about this like 98%, then your intuition's inaccurate. Your accuracy goes out the window. Like it's just you've got to phone an intuitive friend at that point. You've gotta have a trained, professional, qualified, scientifically precise, intuitive who is not emotionally attached to it in order to get you the best information. So if you feel called to do that, find someone who can do that. We can book a session. If you want to train your own intuition, I'll put the wait list below because we do have intuition training programs and I don't see this stuff being taught anywhere else besides the little world that we are in and where I have learned it from. Okay, so takeaways for this week. You're always gonna have some homework to start playing with. I'm never just gonna like leave you guys, like, okay, good luck. No, I'm gonna give you something to start with, and it's perfect because you just want to start with the simplest, getting your toes wet stuff. That way you build the right foundation so the advanced stuff can actually work for you. I know you want to go advanced super quick. We've got options for that, but it's not happening right now. Okay, right now we're doing this. Ready? I want you to consider why you haven't attained what you want. And maybe consider that it's not because you're not good enough, or you're not built for it, or you're not working hard enough, or you're missing the skills. It is not any of that, okay? You just have blocks. And guess what? The blocks can be removed, okay? We can cut the ties with the anchors, we don't even have to bring them back to the boat. Leave them. We can remove them, okay? And then we can floor the super yacht and go fast and have the coolest experience ever chartering your freaking yacht, okay? Now, that's where we're gonna start. Just think about like, hmm, how could all of this be not true? It's not actually that I need more skills or I need to work harder or whatever. It could just be I've got some like misaligned thoughts that are like putting these scripts in my creator field that I don't really love. So I want to upgrade that. Like just start to ponder on that, okay? Because when you get to this point, especially where you, if you find someone, if slash when slash where you find someone who can help you deconstruct the soul lesson and essentially like put together a training program to overcome this thing, you can overcome it in literally less than a year. Instead of multiple lifetimes. Remember, we said one to ten lifetimes. Okay, and that's just the start. Once you remove the blocks, guess what happens then? You start getting more downloads. You start opening your gifts, you start expanding your abilities, and it just helps you create more of what you want. So this is not just about like, oh yeah, let me overcome my soul lesson. No, it's like I know you feel in your bones that you are designed for, like built for such a big life. And it's not just coming from a place of like, oh yeah, I just want to be rich. It's not coming from that at all. It's that your soul knows that money is a reflection of the value that you provide to the world, and you know that you're here to help a lot of souls and make a really big impact. And then that translates to money, which humans we love money, of course, and the soul understands why it's important, but on a deeper level, that's what's happening. Okay, so think about what might be missing or imbalanced or just like doesn't feel whole within you. I'm gonna repeat that because that's part of your homework. Think about what might be missing, imbalanced, or not feel whole within you. Because once you find those and you start working through them, you are going to see shifts that feel like miracles, but they are not. They are literally just science, and it's really, really cool. So, the last piece that I want to give you here for homework, because I know you're still wondering, like, well, how do I do that? Here is a great way to start. I've got a statement for you. Here is the statement. Universe, help me to see my blocks that are in the way of the things I want. And so you don't have to rewind, I'm gonna repeat it for you. Universe, help me to see my blocks that are in the way of the things I want. That is all. Okay. When you set the intention to start getting this clarity and you open yourself to allow that to come through, it's gonna come through. And you probably are already thinking about it from listening to this episode. Okay, so that's your homework for this week. Start playing with this stuff because you are built for such a big life. Even if your human is like, I don't know about that. Your soul knows what's up, okay? Your soul's not playing around because you're here, you're listening to this, which means you're high conscious, high frequency, older soul. You did not pick a tiny soul lesson, okay? You are probably amidst a really, really, really big one that's really important for you to overcome in this life because hello, the world needs some freaking help right now. It's 2026, it is June 2026 right now. Okay, who knows what we're in for? But your soul did not choose to be born in this lifetime at the time that you were born for no reason. Okay, we all came back down here because this place was getting a little ghetto. Okay, it needed some help, needed a lot of help, and you are part of that. I promise you, I would not just say that. You wouldn't be an energetic match to hear that if you weren't supposed to be a big part of the world change. Okay, so that's really exciting for you. We love that. Okay, last few things here. First of all, if you found this episode helpful, please leave a rating and review. That would be so wonderful. Secondly, if you know somebody who you think would also find it helpful, share this with them. Okay, this is how we get this information out into the world. We get a ripple effect, you get to feel more seen and understood by the people in your life, and we just raise the consciousness of the planet because that's what we're here to do. Okay. Now, the last thing that I will say is we've got our next free webinar coming up, and it is going to be on this coming Friday, June 26th. And the webinar is called Triggered AF. Okay, we're gonna learn even more about why life keeps giving you lemons. No, why life keeps giving you the same obstacles over and over again, and it's gonna expand beyond just what we talked about in this episode. So basically, it's going to be all about reflections. This will be our first reflections webinar. Come hang out, watch it live, ask questions, and it's gonna be a good time. The replay will go up into the replay library for three days only for the full replay. Okay, and the replay library, again, is free. Okay, so you can sign up for that, but you've only got three days to watch the full thing. Then it gets stowed away until we decide what we're gonna do with those. Okay, so I will include both of those links below. The first one to sign up for Triggered AF, the second one for the replay library, and I think that's everything that I have for you here. So thank you for spending another week with me here, just growing and expanding. I'm so proud of you. I know a lot of you are staying consistent with the podcast. I'm always happy to hear your feedback, and it just makes me really happy that we have this community that we do. So I appreciate you guys. I hope you have a fabulous freaking week, especially implementing this, and I will catch you in the next episode.
