[gentle music] Welcome to the Alchemy of Ascension podcast, where we explore the multidimensionality of being divine presence embodied at this pivotal time between the old paradigm and the new earth.
0:15
As we raise our consciousness, our awareness, and anchor higher frequencies into the body, we alchemize, we transform, we activate, we ascend. This ascension practice is what I call incension.
0:32
As we bring more light and awareness into the body through the awakened heart, we become infinitely connected to all that is, the divine I am. I'm your host, Washayla Sananda.

We are all on this ascension journey together, growing and expanding as one big community of light. Thank you for doing your part and being part of this community. You are not alone.
1:15
And today we have a very special guest, Sydney Campos. Welcome, Sydney. Hi. Thank you. So happy to have you here.
1:25
So before we dive in, I would love to invite everyone to join us on a short meditation so we can just really get present and ready to receive. So let's begin by closing our eyes,
1:42
tuning into the breath, and deepening the breath into the belly. And as you're breathing,
1:56
inform each breath through the light of the heart. And now get present to the heart center and the light inside your heart. And
2:13
as you're feeling in to that heart light, feel it expanding out around your heart and out around your chest, and just feel that heart energy informing your entire body.
2:33
And now bringing the awareness of the heart light up through the top of your head, extending all the way up to central sun far above your head, and feel into the heart center of central sun.
2:49
Feel the warming divine light energy of central sun in the heart center, the divine masculine,
3:00
and bring that energy down through the ethers into the crown of your head, into your heart center, and all the way down the spine.
3:13
And then continuing down, down into the center of the Earth, making contact with the light in the heart in the center of the Earth.
3:24
This is the heart light of Divine Mother, of Mother Gaia, of the Earth energy.
3:32
So feel that divine feminine frequency, heart energy now moving up through the layers of the Earth, like roots up, moving up through the roots, liquid crystal plasmic creative energy moving up into your body, up into your spine, all the way up the spine and into your heart center.
3:56
And now feel that trinity of light in the heart from above, from below and within, expanding and enhancing your heart light so that you may be fully present and anchored in the body to receive whatever is in this conversation for your highest good, being open and focused and joyfully present.
4:24
And with that, go ahead and bring your awareness back. And when you're ready, open your eyes. Okay. Thank you for doing that with me. I feel more grounded and present [laughs] a little more focused.
4:42
And now I get to introduce Sydney by... I'm gonna read a little bit about Sydney so everyone can understand who you are and what you're up to in the world. Mm-hmm.
4:53
Sydney Campos is a visionary intuitive advisor, business strategy expert, and bestselling author of The Empath Experience: What to Do When You Feel Everything. Mm-hmm.
5:06

5:40
I love that. Wow, welcome. And let's start at the beginning. Mm. How, how did you... It's kind of like origin story since this is the first time you've been on the show.
5:53
How did you come to do this amazing work, and so many different types of work? Did you have an awakening experience? Were you born this way? How did that- Yeah. Thank you. It's so wonderful to be here.
6:09
It's, it's so fun to hear that, that story, the bio story. So different. It changes, you know, we- we're just changing so fast every day now. Um, it's like we can't keep, keep up with our biographies.
6:22
[laughs] Um, you know, I was born really sensitive and intuitive, and just, like, kind of this multidimensional being that got plopped into Earth.
6:33
And I think at a really young age, uh, knowing what I know now, I didn't know that now, uh, back then, of course, but knowing what I know now, you know, kind of got plopped here on Earth and felt like, "What am I doing here, and who are these people?"
6:46
You know, to... And looking at my immediate family, really feeling, um, out of place. [laughs] Mm-hmm.
6:53
As I'm sure many people listening, uh, can relate to that experience and, and just feeling like, "I'm in the wrong place. Can I please go home now?" [laughs] And, um, you know, so I learned a lot of lessons quite young.
7:05
Um, I, uh, got into drugs and alcohol pretty young.
7:10
About 14 years old I started, uh, partying pretty hard and, and seeking kind of outside things to shut off my sensitivity and, and also just kind of get me down to a level where I could just be a human.
7:22
That's what it felt like, to turn off all my sensitivity and just be able to breathe.
7:26
Uh, prior to that I felt, like, paralyzing anxiety as a pretty normal state, and felt on top of that, like, there's something wrong with me or I'm crazy, 'cause everyone else around me seems to have it together.
7:37
You know, what was I missing? And, um, had no idea. Had no language to describe what I was experiencing. Uh, did that for about 10 years.
7:46
Kind of was really good at playing the role of, uh, looking like I had it all together. Um, did really well in school, so I guess my parents didn't really, uh, weren't so concerned, you know, with me. And, um,
8:00
yeah, was, was getting into a lot of dangerous situations at a very young age, getting into a lot of trouble but always hiding it.
8:09
And, uh, I hit a rock bottom with the, the drinking and the drugs at age 24, so I did that for about 10 years. And it was in New York City
8:19
and I, uh, you know, just had no boyfriends anymore to be babysitting me, which had been, like, the last few years. So I was really on my own and it was really scary. I was putting myself in a lot of danger.
8:29
I was exploring, uh, escorting and stripping at that time and just leading a total double life. I was working in a, like, financial advising office by day.
8:38
At night, probably sleeping, like, five hours in between these two, you know, uh, jobs. I would go to the strip club at night and get so blacked out and, like, I was a terrible stripper.
8:49
I'd lose all my money, like, I would just be so drunk and, uh, get into really dangerous situations and w- would often wake up and not be sure how I got home, you know, many times. So I'm really grateful that I'm alive.
9:02
I think there were a lot of times back then through that experience that I tried to, tried to kill myself without consciously committing suicide. Uh, I feel like I really, uh, was not here.
9:13
Feel like I was at a, a space where I just didn't really wanna be here and let a lot of other entities kind of run me. That's what it feels like.
9:20
Um, and then I, yeah, hit a rock bottom with that and just realized that I was gonna die for sure if I kept, uh, operating the way that I was.
9:29
And, um, just by, you know, total grace, um, kind of seeing the look in someone else's eyes really, I was in a therapy appointment, um, thinking I was gonna get career counseling.
9:39
You know, like, if I could just find the ri- right job, then I could feel like I'm living my purpose, and then I wouldn't have to party and, like, do all this stuff that I'm ashamed of all the time.
9:49
You know, then I could be happy. I was really externally focused and, um, and I finally told this therapist, who was about to prescribe me with a lot of, uh, let's say anti-anxiety probably, like, medication.
10:01
I was like, "Wait a minute. I don't think I could drink with that. Let me tell you what I'm actually, you know, doing here."
10:07
And I told her the truth about what I was up to and what was probably creating these, um, diagnoses of, you know, bipolar, uh, disorder type, you know, diagnosis. And she...
10:18
The look on her face when I told her what I was actually doing, the amount I was drinking, the drugs I was doing, the situations I was involved in all in secret that nobody knew about, first time I had ever told anybody the truth, uh, she just looked totally shocked, and the look on her face,
10:35
uh, really shifted something in me. It, it freaked me out. It's like I saw the truth of what I was doing through her face. And, uh, yeah, and I got sober shortly thereafter. I got sober through, uh, the 12 steps.
10:49
That was a big part of my life the first couple years of recovery, and that really catalyzed my awakening. Did a lot of work in that community, a lot of meditation, a lot of, a lot of work.
11:01
Found reiki very early on in my recovery. Even after getting sober, I still felt crazy. [laughs] I still felt like, you know, I was so overwhelmed by my emotions.
11:10
I had no idea about energy, my emotions, being highly, highly empathic, living in New York City, being totally fried energetically.
11:19
And so I found energy healing and it changed my life, and I learned about being an empath, and that changed my life and, and so on and so forth, and, you know, and kind of the rest is history.
11:31
But that's really the beginning stage. It was quite, um... I don't really... I, it's hard to even talk about sometimes as I'm like, I don't even remember. I don't know if you have this experience.
11:41
Like, the longer I go in this path into more presence, into more embodiment, into more
11:49
wholeness, you know, which is an infinite path, it's like, wow, that timeline, that experience, that being that was making those choices, uh, just feels so foreign. You know, feels like, wow, I really...
12:03
It's a totally different dimension of experience, you know? [laughs]Wow. Thank you for sharing so vulnerably all of- Mm...
12:12
what led you here, and that must have been, um, you know, pretty traumatic to, to be i- amidst that experience of life.
12:22
And, um, what an amazing thing that you found, you know, just your recovery through someone else reflecting back what they saw. Mm-hmm.
12:33
Uh, so yeah, I know what you mean by, you know, when you, when you make such a big shift and then go forward into a whole different experience of life, it seems like another lifetime literally, and, and I guess it is.
12:47
It's a different timeline, different dimension of- Mm-hmm... who you were. But nevertheless, you know, we go through our traumas and challenges, and that's what makes us who we are now. So it's all for a purpose.
13:01
And also, I imagine it gave you great compassion for people- Mm... in that situation. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, every single thing I've... [laughs] I feel like I've lived a billion lifetimes in just this one.
13:14
I mean, I- just telling you that story is, like, just one layer of all of the experience. It's immense. And every single thing that we all go through. I mean, being human is traumatizing.
13:25
Being born into a physical body as a multidimensional being is traumatizing, like all of it, you know?
13:32
And every experience that we have, uh, to, that catalyzes our awakening, it, it informs what we're here to do, you know? It informs our divine assignment, our mission.
13:42
And every experience I've ever had, I mean, it, I'm so grateful because, like, you could tell me anything, and, like, people feel so safe.
13:50
Um, I create a space of a lot of safety and acceptance, and, and this is really, you know, I think the definition of healing, right? Like, I'm not healing anybody.
13:59
I'm just able to hold a, a container and a space where people feel welcomed and available and vulnerable to really let go of all the stuff that we hold onto and feel so much shame about and harbor so much density around,
14:13
you know, 'cause you can tell me anything, and I'm like, "I've done that, and I've done way worse," you know, and it's okay. And what if there's nothing wrong, you know? And what if it's all okay?
14:23
And what if you can stop beating yourself up? And what if you can forgive yourself? Mm-hmm. And what if you can start over, you know? Yeah. Yeah.
14:32
And that, you know, that self-worth, self-love piece for so many people, I feel like that's why we're striving in this culture to... we're st- people striving for success, for recognition, for acknowledgement.
14:50
It's really for love. But ultimately, it's for self-love, and that self-love being reflected back through the eyes of others rather than cultivating it from the inside out and, and being it, right? The- Yeah...
15:08
being the embodiment of it. Yes.
15:11
I noticed you actually in some of your materials, or maybe it was on your site, I, I saw the phrase embodied ascension, which I received a while ago, like, kind of in a, um, a meditation space, or I was doing a reading for someone and I'm like, "Wow, this term is so powerful.
15:26
Like, what's that about?" And, and, and that's why we're here, like, embodied ascension.
15:32
You know, my whole life of the, the timeline of the suffering and the seeking and the addiction and the just, that whole patterning, you know, up until that...
15:41
Well, there's still subtle layers of that present that we get to work on, right? It's not like it's all done and cleaned up and perfect. Um, but the, the intensity of that patterning, like, you know,
15:53
wow, like, that was just that, that loop that so many of us are conditioned to play in, the out, seeking the outside. Seeking the love outside, the success outside, the money, whatever we think it is, right?
16:05
To fill, uh, this, this void or this feeling of not enoughness or whatever it is. And I'm really loving this, um, this invitation into embodied ascension.
16:16
In fact, that was the name of our retreat that we just had in Maui a couple months ago. Feels like lifetimes ago.
16:22
And the invitation and that, uh, practice of embodied ascension is to literally reverse engineer all of the external seeking, and actually dropping just doing altogether, you know?
16:36
It's like what is it like to practice being truly present with yourself?
16:42
Like dropping all the stories of, of even like I have to do something to practice self-love and to learn, and I, there's somewhere to get to, and once I learn self-love, then I can be happy, and all of the conditional, like, mental frames that we're taught to operate in.
16:59
Letting all of that go and practicing, like we did at the beginning of this call, presence, being in the breath, being in the heart, really being in the body.
17:10
So many of us, I know for most of my, you know, first part of my life, I was just up here operating in, like, the top part of my, my head, you know, in the upper chakra, really not in the body.
17:21
And a lot of us, I'm sure a lot listening, uh, to this, um, you know, call right now, it's like a lot of us who are highly in tune, sensitive, aware, psychic beings that come from higher dimensions, you know, that come into Earth to, you know, to help assist in the ascension, it can be very common for us very early on because it is so traumatizing coming into a body to disassociate and to not even know it.
17:47
To become so good at playing the role of, like, "I'm happy, and I'm here, and I'm just pleasing everybody and, you know, fitting into my family and being a little angel," but really, like, we're not here.
17:58
Like, our spirit is not in the body because it has never felt safe to be in the body, you know? Mm-hmm.
18:04
And then this is what I'm finding over the last, um, year for me, like really focusing on this, like the most important part-...
18:12
of the embodiment path is, wow, like really checking in on the level of disassociation that can be happening still to protect, to feel safe, to survive, and consciously coming into presence and inviting more presence deeper and deeper into the body, which is an infinite journey.
18:32
But I'm just finding this to be, like, the most exciting, expansive, you know, practice that, that we have. Ooh, I just, I love this conversation. Mm. And [laughs]
18:46
as you're speaking, I'm, like, seeing little sparkles around you and like, oh yes- [laughs]... you're n- and you're so speaking my language and the language I feel like of so many that are in this- Mm... work.
18:58
Um, I actually found you when I had... Okay, so I had rebranded from, um, being an ascension, uh, like Ascension Training is the name of my, of my training, to Embodied Ascension Training.
19:12
So I, I'm like, "I wonder who else is- [laughs]... is using that terminology out there?" That's how I found you, searching embodied ascension. [laughs] Oh, that makes me so happy. Yeah.
19:25
Well, it was, we're on the team, right? It was 'cause that came in through a higher guidance, like, this is the name of that retreat container. It's a name for your training container. This is, this is 5D, you know?
19:35
Yeah.
19:35
And, and all the dimensions beyond and everything we have access to is, like, from presence as this embodiment, as this portal, you know, of heaven into Earth through this body, through our embodiment, we have access to infinite, infinite support, infinite intelligence, infinite integration, you know, wholeness.
19:56
And this is really our collective invitation right now to really get curious about, like, what is this, what is embodiment really about? For every... You know, we use the term all the time.
20:07
It's, like, popularized and trendy and cool, and everyone's like an embodiment coach. [laughs] And what does that mean? And what does it mean for you? Like, I love to invite people to, like, make your own definition.
20:18
You know, create the meaning that resonates for you if, if it's useful, you know? And really, like, cultivate an understanding of, like, what does it mean to be embodied? How does that really feel?
20:28
How might that be something I am called to explore on my path right now? Absolutely.
20:35
And you know what I was finding, um, having people come into my ascension container, Ascension Training, people have, I'm sure you're familiar with this, perception- Mm-hmm... of ascension as being out here or up there.
20:51
And so, you know, it's my first training is ascension is in. It's getting, it's ascending from in, you know? And, and bringing the frequency of this container, this body- Mm-hmm...
21:04
that we have for such a short time here on the planet, like, using this tool, this tool, and getting in it and working through it and with it, ascending that way, not like getting out. And there is- Mm-hmm...
21:17
when, when you're a star seed, like you and I and so many of the viewers, and empathic, it's so much to feel.
21:23
It's so much intensity and so much to process to be in, really in this container, especially with the people around us not seeming to understand, you know, who we are and our sensitivities.
21:36
Like, it's easier to go out, and I think it becomes a habit just not to be present, not to be embodied, not to be here now, to, and even to desire to get out.
21:47
You know, I hear a lot of people say, "I just, just don't wanna be here. It's too hard." Mm-hmm. It's too...
21:53
However, and I'm, I'd love to get your perspective on this, you know, once you really actually do get in and do start to, like, bring up the frequency of the body, it can be such a lovely, pleasant, enjoyable, physical...
22:08
Like, the presence and the being-ness of being human on this planet completely shifts when you do get in. But there's also the having to let go of the stuff that's in the way of that, right?
22:24
The traumas and the, the dense stuff. I'm sure you had a lot of that to go through after- [laughs]... all of your experiences. [laughs] Oh, you know. [laughs] You know, it's, yeah, it's hard.
22:41
It's hard being human and feeling and being all the way here. It's terrifying. You know what's terrifying? Uh, people are scared of their power.
22:50
Our whole society, culture, all of it, especially Western culture, is, like, so indoctrinated with just repression, oppression, shame, fear, control, addiction.
23:03
You know, we're all conditioned to be addicts from day one, basically. And that's just the truth. And you know, a lot of, uh... It's easy. It's easy. There's so many traps. Look at the way our whole system's designed.
23:13
Look at the way we grow up, com- you know, marketing, capitalism, all of it. It's like we're taught from day one that we are not enough, [laughs]
23:21
and, and that we need something else to be better, to look better, to, you know, whatever it is, and we're not enough.
23:28
And, and not only that, a lot of us learned, as the bright, shiny, amazing beings that we are, to shut that down because, you know, usually at a young age, you know, when we told the truth, because we have a very clear barometer for right and wrong and true, you know, true resonance, [laughs] we could feel it be- between people's words, between our parents' words, we could s- we could feel the dishonesty, the inauthenticity, the fear.
23:55
And usually at a young age without all the conditioning present, we would just call people out. I know I did this. Like, "That's not true. That's not right," or, "You're lying," you know, and just being honest.
24:05
And then we learned, you know, that that wasn't gonna work because that threatened, you know, our survival in the family.
24:11
If we're gonna, like, be ourselves and speak our truth, that freaks people out who we have to depend on to take care of us.
24:19
So we learn, sometimes age one, two, three this is already happening, and we shut down our power. We shut down our gifts. You know, we shut down our authenticity to fit in. To be s- to survive, you know?
24:33
And then, you know, eventually we wake up and we do the work and, and then this patterning is here, and it's like, why? Why is it so hard to just be in my power? Why is it so hard to feel fully alive?
24:44
Why is it so hard to feel worthy, you know, as I am of love, to be love? All these things, you know. Such universal wounds, by the way.
24:53
People have so- we're taught to have so much shame about the things that are, like, wrong with us or the ways we're broken, when honestly, we have so much in common. We all share a lot of the same wounding, you know?
25:05
Like, I'm just not surprised really anymore. Like, the worst traumas I've experienced and heard from other people, the story of it might be different, but the underlying emotional, like, wounding, they're universal.
25:18
These are universal threads that bond us all together as humans, and in a way it's really beautiful.
25:23
'Cause once we come out of the hiding and the repression and the like, "I have to just pretend to have everything together," like the world teaches me, you know, to look good,
25:32
and that whole broken pattern, you know, once we let all that go and we actually start sharing authentically from presence, like, you know, "Wow, this is what's coming up for me right now. This is what I'm afraid of.
25:44
This is what I'm feeling, you know. This is my experience." Not caretaking, not projecting, just being honest, being real, which can be terrifying, right? That's us being in our power, being real, being seen, you know?
25:58
And then we can start to let things move out of our system. We can start to feel more safe in the body.
26:04
We can start to open up for more connection and intimacy, you know, like real connections that we're all starving for, right?
26:11
Like, our society, our family systems don't really teach us how to cultivate true connection, and yet we're all expected to just have fairy tale romances and love and all of this, you know? And it's like, but how?
26:24
It's like the most common concern I find out there in the world is, like, how do I actually connect? How do I connect with myself? How do I listen to my intuition?
26:34
How do I actually connect in with my own heart, with my soul, let alone with somebody else in a way that feels real, that's not superficial and like a simulation, you know?
26:45
So this is really the work, and it starts with being vulnerable. It starts with really coming into presence with yourself in a way that at first can feel really tender. Like, really connecting in with yourself,
27:00
sometimes it can feel... Like for me, when I first experienced that, um, I needed a lot of support. It was terrifying to really come into these vulnerable spaces. Um, I was really...
27:12
I had a lot of fear of facing some of the emotions and energy I had been repressing. It felt overwhelming.
27:18
You know, I didn't have a nervous system built that was able to sustain the level of energy and frequency that I'm designed to bring in, and it was really scary. S- scared of my power, you know, and
27:30
so grateful for the support, you know, that we get to call in, and that's really the most
27:36
amazing way that we can take care of ourselves, I would say, on this path, no matter what part of the path we're on, is to always be humble enough to ask for support, to ask for help, you know, to have guidance.
27:49
Like, we're not alone. We don't have to figure anything out. Definitely don't need to figure anything out alone. [laughs] Yes. A big yes to that. That is one of the, if not the biggest reason that I do this work. Yeah.
28:02
The summits and the reaching out to the masses to connect, because I felt alone. You know, I was raised in rural Iowa, um- [laughs]... in certain, you know, good Christian, traditional family values type of communities.
28:20
You know, it was a lovely upbringing, and I always felt really strange. Like- [laughs]... who are these people, and why don't they see- [laughs]... the stuff I see, and why... You know, what are they talking about?
28:31
And [laughs] Mm-hmm... and I felt alone in my, in my experiences. So just to... I, I, you know, I craved... I didn't understand what it was that I needed, but I craved spiritual- Mm-hmm...
28:43
companionship and, um, in the way that I was experiencing it, someone to tell me I wasn't crazy. You know, I wasn't the only one. Um, and I think that's... It's just community and support's so important.
28:59
And you know, I've said many times I always have a coach, usually multiple coaches- Mm-hmm... for all the things that I'm up to in my life, and shamanic support. Mm-hmm. Um, I, you know, I, I certainly
29:13
wouldn't wanna be without that type of support, and I'm not... I don't have, we don't have to do it alone, right? We don't have to do it alone. So thank you for presencing that. Um- Mm-hmm...
29:25
one of the conversations that I really wanna get into with you, uh, you talk about, a, a lot about creating heaven on Earth and how that's so much of what you're about, and I wanna see if we can tie that into the new Earth conversation.
29:41
What, um, what is your perspective of the new Earth, and maybe what's happening right now on the planet? Is that part of the new Earth, and is that, is that part of the bridge to creating heaven on Earth?
29:58
So, and I'm opening up a huge, um, portal here. [laughs] I love this portal. [laughs] But that's, that's what I wanna talk about. [laughs] Awesome. Thank you. I love the big questions. Yeah.
30:10
Ah, just tuning in, feeling some great energy moving through around this. Ah. You know, I was given that term...
30:17
Sometimes I'm, like, given the preview of visions, like, years before I'm ready to actually really understand them, or the understanding deepens and the unfolding over many years and experiences.
30:27
And the heaven on earth thing and 5D visionary, you know, that term came in like years ago and I incorporated it into different offerings and...
30:34
But there was, looking back, there was a part of me, I didn't know it at the time, but looking back again, I'm like, "I didn't really..." I was just kind of trying these things on. Like, I would...
30:42
Spirit would give me these containers and I'm like, "Okay, what is this about? What are the teaching, you know, learning, sharing, and what does this actually mean?"
30:51
And, and what I've gotten about the heaven on earth, uh, container concept invitation is it's embodied ascension.
30:59
[laughs] There is also this, um, conditioning very much in the communities of, you know, the New Earth and regenerative communities and all the terms, you know, and, um, of like create it...
31:10
Yes, of course, we're here to create something. Of course, we're here to actualize our gifts. Of course, we're here to birth amazing visions into being, right? We're architects.
31:17
We're here to architect new realities that we wish existed. And yet,
31:23
especially as we're moving into, you know, 5D and, and more, which really to me just means presence, right, out of time and presence, authenticity, complete integrity.
31:33
You know, really being ourselves, really living in our creativity and our full creative potential. Architecting heaven on earth means I commit fully to embodying my divinity. I commit fully to embodying my true self.
31:49
I commit to being present.
31:51
And only from that space am I creating what is aligned with my divinity to create, and the creation isn't so much a like intellectual, you know, following a map, linear creational timeframe.
32:09
It's more... It's a totally different way of creating, which I'm sure you're experiencing too. This is something I've been teaching for years, but I'm now like getting at a deeper level.
32:19
Like, oh, creating from presence is like a completely different experience, and we do collapse time and space, and we do quantum leap, and we do like have these immense activations of energy that come in and we just take one
32:36
really efficient step towards architecting the vision that's meant to be created, and we magnetize the resources and support and the right people, and we're just at the right moment and the right time and the right place.
32:49
And we notice that we're a part of this much larger plan [laughs] that's already orchestrated. That in a way has already happened. You know, it's like already done.
32:58
We wouldn't have the vision unless it's already occurred on some level on the quantum level.
33:03
And, and then we get this experience of almost like watching ourselves like move through the story, move through the play, and it kind of is this surreal, you know, this experience of watching, like watching the show.
33:17
[laughs] But we're the player in the show, and it really is this holographic experience, but we're present and it's real, you know?
33:24
And it's funny to even give words to it sometimes because it's like when we're in such presence and so like enthralled with our creativity, we're not really talking or thinking.
33:34
We're just being in the moment and enjoying it, and that, like that's what we're here for.
33:38
That's what I came here for, to be so in the moment, like to be lost in the moment and just so connected into creation and with God and just in all the dimensions that we span and more of our energy coming through, embodying.
33:53
Like, that's what I'm here for, you know? And it's a practice. It's a practice to create from that space. And then the story of the New Earth and, you know, I don't really, I don't really use that term.
34:06
Actually, it doesn't even come through so much.
34:08
Like, I do a lot of different facilitation and energy healing and, and readings with a lot of, uh, people that are visionaries who are bringing through future technology and new systems and infrastructure that, you know, are going to help sustain this planet for the next couple of thousand year- thousand years and beyond, right?
34:25
And, um, I v- I never hear the term New Earth in terms of how my guides or my councils com- you know, communicate. Um, my understanding of that term... Okay.
34:40
Well, what I'm seeing as we kind of explore it is just the fact that there's actually multiple dimensions of Earth, right?
34:47
And they appear as a grid, they appear as an energy field, and that Earth is already like a fifth dimensional being and above, right? It's already like a much higher dimensional ascended being.
34:58
[laughs] In fact, Earth in many ways is holding the frequency that we are practicing, uh, uh, tuning to, right?
35:05
And so, uh, that would be kind of my closest, uh, understanding definition of like the New Earth is that Earth is really providing us this whole spectrum of higher dimensional energy that she already holds in these different grids and consciousness grids overlaying each other.
35:22
Very high, high frequencies we have access to now. It's really exciting, and we're practicing.
35:27
We're practicing a tuning with those energies, seeing what we can integrate, seeing what we can anchor in through our bodies into not only Earth but, you know, also radiating out into the other systems that many of us are, uh, ambassadors of, right?
35:41
That we're connecting in with other planets, other universes, other consciousness, you know, beyond, uh, realms that we even have words for.
35:48
So there's a lot of other assignments happening here beyond what we're creating in the physical.
35:53
Many of us, this is coming through for some reason to assure or affirm some listening, that many of us are here to really just anchor new frequencies on the planet.
36:02
You know, our society doesn't like pay us for that or give us [laughs] necessarily like affirmation or accolades for that, but it's, it's some of the most important work, you know?
36:11
To bring through some of these higher dimensional energies and new consciousness into the planet.
36:17
You know, we are holding a template, a pillar that just like Earth is letting us attune to these higher dimensional energies. Our systems, when we integrate these energies through our beings, when we embody, right?
36:29
We're like, you know, allowing that energy to be available To more people, and they might not even be aware of it, they might not... It's not necessarily conscious.
36:39
But that might be a large part of, of a lot of people listening here.
36:43
Uh, uh, it's a part of our assignment, it's a part of why we came in, it's a part of why sometimes we do feel very alone, because we are carrying such different frequencies that not a lot of people resonate with yet.
36:53
You know? It's like there'd be a very big discrepancy in where we're kind of vibrating and where, um, most people around us are.
37:00
But oftentimes we're dropped into places geographically to be that light, to be that frequency holder, to broadcast it out so that we're helping everyone attune and, um, and expand.
37:13
So that kind of went a lot of different directions. [laughs] Yeah. I love it. You know, it's... We're so in the same field, you know?
37:21
I guess when, when you're practicing embodied ascension, that's what it, that's what it looks and sounds like. Mm-hmm.
37:27
And that's something that I share about a lot as well, that your service might be, your biggest service here might be the frequency that you hold.
37:36
And when you step into your embodied ascension or your embodiment of your divine frequencies, sometimes your biggest service is just to be, is just to hold that frequency and anchor that light, and that is- Mm...
37:51
a great service. And so doing your personal work, doing the work like you did to... You know, you weren't in that frequency when you were pre-24, right? [laughs] Um, but then you made a choice. Oh, for sure. That was...
38:05
Yeah. [laughs] And same, just like me, you know? Just like me. I had, I had my, my, uh, party times too when I was younger. Mm-hmm. Similar story.
38:14
Now, mine wasn't quite as extreme but, you know, I did, I did play pretty hard. Um, and it was having, for me, having my daughter that brought me- Mm...
38:23
back a- in, and, and also meeting, um, the shaman that, that guided me, so- Mm... I'm grateful for that. But similar, you know? And to anchor a frequency, to anchor...
38:36
And first we have to do our inner work and get in and get cleared out, clear out the trauma enough to even feel what we're feeling.
38:46
And, you know, I love you shared about, and you wrote a book about being an empath and feeling so much. Like how- Mm-hmm... can you be in this body when you feel so much? It can... it's... it can be- Mm...
38:57
like so much input, so much to feel. Mm. Um, but yet when... I, I think everything that we're given, um, from the outside in is like to escape, to get out, to not feel that.
39:13
Here, take this, even if it's just an aspirin or a, you know, whatever. Mm. Take this, take this, take this to help you not have to feel. Have a drink so you don't have to feel. You know? Mm.
39:23
Try this so you don't have to feel. Um, you know, and that could spin off into a million different things that we do. Watch a movie so you don't have to feel. You know, whatever it is. Mm.
39:34
And all, all our different vices, legal, illegal, it's- Mm... it's to get away from that feeling, but yet
39:43
what happens when we feel it is that we actually get to be present, and that's, that's the whole, the whole world that you're speaking of, and that embodiment is about, and really the key, the key to having it all work and actually desiring to be here.
40:05
It's quite a game we chose to come in and play, right? It's like... It's, it's sometimes I just laugh, like, "Okay, yep, come back into presence. What's happening now? What am I feeling now? Come back. Come back."
40:19
You know, our whole world is designed to get us out of this moment, and just come back, just come back. I forgive myself, come back. You know?
40:28
And, um, the other thing I just wanted to mention when you were talking about holding the frequency and, like, what if the most important part of your role on Earth in this incarnation is to, like, bring in these frequencies and, and have fun and, like, do what you love.
40:43
People get so wrapped up in like, "What is my purpose?"
40:46
And, you know, a lot of my, um, b- uh, business coaching consulting practice as it started was, like, about soul alignment and helping people find their purpose and, you know, using the Akashic records to support people and, and tapping in with that more and, and...
41:00
But even that whole, you know, attachment of like, "I have to be living my purpose," like it's this neatly tied up, you know, identity that we can just find and, like, be doing that and it all makes so much sense and it's so clear,
41:14
you know, is something that we get to kind of break apart honestly. You know, again, from the space of presence, like, what am I feeling and what is it that is inspiring me? What is it that is enlivening?
41:25
What is it that I love? What would I love to experience right now? What would be fun?
41:30
[laughs] Play and having fun is actually, like, one of the greatest keys into presence, into embodied ascension, is through play, right?
41:40
Laughter is one of the most powerful trauma release techniques that we have to literally, like, somatically process density through the body. You know, when we're, like, laughing so hard it hurts.
41:51
And, uh, I just felt like that was important to remind, like, you know, take the pressure off. You know, I have to find...
41:58
So many of us, like, really old souls, right, like even as little kids we, like, put so much pressure on ourselves, like, "I have to be on my mission. I have to live my purpose."
42:07
Like, we know we have a big purpose, but we're like... You know, when I was 20 years old, even when I was still in my addiction, I'm like, you know, had this, like, existential crisis, like, "I'm not living my purpose."
42:18
[laughs] I'm like, I couldn't live my purpose 'cause I wasn't really here, but there was that, that energy that was driving so much pressure and constriction, you know?
42:27
And it's like, wow, like, what if your purpose is to really be yourself- Mm... to be present- And to do what it is that you really enjoy. And could you imagine that whatever that is that you truly love
42:41
is gonna help people, and you just being in your home frequency and radiating that joy is helping people, it's helping the planet, it's helping assist ascension. Yes, absolutely. I love that. Mm-hmm.
42:55
Um, you know, you mentioned some of the things that you do, and you do a lot of different things from what I've seen. Akashic records, um, retreats, business coaching, writing, you know, authoring a book.
43:10
So with all of that, you know, what is, what is your... Like, what is your favorite most fun, juicy thing to do? [laughs] Podcasting, too. Yeah.
43:22
I'm starting a social media company that's launching in a few mo- a few weeks- Ooh... actually, called Ascend, which is awesome. Uh, kind of pivoting my focus to really run that actually in the next month. Um,
43:34
I love to dance. I love dancing. I love ecstatic dance and embodied movement, and that has just been such a big part of my embodiment process. You know?
43:47
Like, started years ago when I was living in Bali and really got into ecstatic dance, but I was still, even having done so much work, I was still so vulnerable to be on the dance floor with all these, like, beautiful people and- [laughs]...
44:01
you know, and I was so self-conscious and all my empath stuff was there. Like, "What are people thinking about me? I feel like everyone's looking at me, and I can't just do what I wanna do, and I have to look good."
44:12
And, you know, dance is such an awesome container to explore all these things, all these subtle energetic structures that we play in unknowingly, and bring them into awareness, and choose to move like ourselves. Mm-hmm.
44:27
You know? Wow, like, that has been such an awesome journey, and I just love dancing. I love dancing with other people for that reason, 'cause it just brings up all the triggers and awesome stuff to work on.
44:39
And, uh, yeah, that's, like, my favorite thing to do. I love singing. Big activation over the last couple years since doing so much of the somatic, um,
44:50
you know, integration work and trauma release stuff, and just, like, this new voice. Light language, toning, like, all kinds of new, uh, modalities for energy healing, too, and just for fun.
45:02
Like, loving to sing, loving my voice. Realizing that we all have beautiful voices, every single person on Earth. I think we're here to just sing and dance, honestly. [laughs] I love that. Yes, yes.
45:15
[laughs] I love ecstatic dance, too, and, um, I was in, with my ex-husband, we were in the community in Austin, Texas. They have such great, um, ecstatic dance community there, and- Oh...
45:28
then we moved back to Iowa for a period of time, and there wa- of course, there was none there, so we facilitated it for a while. You rock, man.
45:36
And you know, like, we would have, like, six people show up 'cause it's small community [laughs] Awesome... going to, so going from, like, 100 to 6 was really confronting, you know?
45:46
It's like, like you said, like, it's ecstatic dance. It's free, it's you can do whatever you want, but yet you're being your- Mm-hmm... your being with people. You're moving in your own way, and it's bringing up
46:00
the stuff. It's, it's, there's nothing like it. For anyone listening, watching that hasn't tried ecstatic dance, it's so powerful. It's so wonderful. Find ecstatic dance near you. [laughs] Yeah, or start it up. Yeah.
46:15
Or start it. Yes. We... Honestly, I feel like it's the most incredible, um, opportunity, you know, to, to practice embodied ascension is through the dance and through, with it, with other people, with other mirrors.
46:26
You know?
46:26
'Cause that's where we see our- that's where we can really see ourselves, and we can feel those little inconsistencies, and triggers, and the contractions, and we can work with them in the moment and just move so much.
46:37
And so I've had so many awesome emotional releases on the dance floor and just, gosh, we can just access, you know, so much of ourselves, and it's so much fun. [laughs] Yeah, yeah.
46:48
The deep movement meditation that, with other people, and then, like, the eye contact and the [laughs] Mm-hmm... just, like, how much eye contact do I wanna have with that person? [laughs] Yeah.
47:01
How much intimacy do I have capacity for? Right. Yeah. Right. [laughs] So good. Oh, I miss it. We w- we have a wonderful one here, but, um, it's been- Oh...
47:13
shut down for, for some time, so looking forward to- Come over to Big Island, the home of ecstatic dance. I'm moving over there- Yes... in a couple weeks, and- Yeah... it's an amazing dance community.
47:23
I'm really excited about it. [laughs] Wonderful. Wonderful. Mm-hmm. Um, we are moving to the end, to, close to the end of our time together. [laughs] We are moving.
47:38
Um, and I wanna make sure we talk about, um, your, your gift and your offer. So you, you have this wonderful free gift that you're, you're giving to everyone. It's an activation retreat.
47:50
Would you like to share about what that is? Is it the Somatic Sanctuary?
47:55
It's, uh, what I wrote down [laughs] is activation retreat, healing guidance, Akashic transmissions, personalized coaching, and consulting, and insight into the principles and protocols of 5D business- Oh, cool...
48:10
and consciousness. It's the Visionary Vortex Immersion. That's right. Thank you for reminding me. [laughs] I didn't write the title. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. It's all good.
48:17
Yeah, for, so for this, uh, container, this amazing summit, I mean, I have a lot of different offerings and, and ways of support, but it, it, I got the message to offer, um, guidance on visionary business.
48:31
You know, we spoke a little bit through this conversation around purpose, soul alignment, embodiment- And birthing the vision that you're here to bring through in this life.
48:40
And, um, so part of the free offering that I'm really excited for everyone to tune into is an immersive retreat that we did over the equinox. Um, so it's really powerful energy encoded in there.
48:54
And it's a whole full spectrum journey of tuning into your vision, tuning into your soul purpose.
49:01
Uh, there's like a nervous system attunement practice there as well to come into more presence, to connect in with your embodiment.
49:10
And, and then there's a lot of support and this feeling of kind of being in a group container, um, of fellow visionaries that are committed to creating heaven on Earth, that are all creating different, uh, organizations or courses or offerings, and it, it just feels, uh, like beautiful energy to be immersed in, especially at this time as we're kind of moving towards the end of this year.
49:31
And, you know, wow, what a great time to really anchor in your vision.
49:35
And then, um, kind of piggybacking off of that, my, uh, paid offer is 5D Visionary Business Training, which is like my, you know, most robust offering of basically a mentorship with me.
49:49
It's a self-guided, uh, mentorship, and it contains years of [laughs] guidance and sessions and strategy and templates from different group containers and one-on-one, uh, coaching, you know, uh, containers that I've had over the years.
50:04
And if you resonate with what you experience in the vortex, visionary vortex, then this would be the next step is to go really deep in actually architecting, you know, what it is that you're here to birth.
50:16
And I take you through a whole process of actually outlining, you know, what is the vision, to create it from an authentic, embodied place.
50:24
Not what you think you should be doing, not the thing that you think, you know, is gonna make sense or that's gonna ma- you know, none of that. Like, what does your heart want to birth through you?
50:35
And let's put a structure to that, and let's also develop a way that you can lead from an embodied, present way in your own pace, right? And, um, really creating your own rhythm in your business.
50:48
And then there's all kinds of fun stuff about abundance activations and magnetism and, um, just developing something that feels really amazing, you know, a vehicle to share your soul service that feels incredible, that feels like you, that supports you, and that really supports the planet.
51:05
[laughs] Mm. Wow, wonderful stuff. Yeah. And, oh, I'm excited... I'm just excited to share all of this with everyone, so I'll be sure to include the links to both of those, um, and the write-ups in your speaker page.
51:23
And, um, so is there anything else that you wanna leave the audience with before we end?
51:30
[sighs] [laughs] You know, it's this question that it, it's so fun.
51:42
I was writing about this, um, recently, and it, it just comes up, it comes up now, like to remind ourselves, like maybe you play with this question throughout the day, like
51:53
especially if anything ever feels stressful or tense or overwhelming. Like, what if everything is okay? It sounds so simple, right? But I... That comes in to, to share. Like, what if everything's okay as it is right now?
52:08
Like, what's it like to really accept, come into acceptance of whatever's happening? And this is inviting us into presence, too. What if everything's actually okay and there's nothing to fix, change? Slow down.
52:22
What if it's all okay? Take a breath. Receive. Hand on the heart. Love you. What would feel beautiful to experience right now? You know? And there's just this like softness.
52:35
You know, we're invited to really practice with ourselves, like re-parenting ourselves, really
52:41
connecting intimately with ourselves, communicating with ourselves as, um, someone that we really love and hold in, in reverence. Yeah. Mm. That's the, that's what's coming through. [laughs] Wow. Beautiful.
52:53
You know, when you... As soon as you said that, "What if everything's okay?" I felt my body just sh- take- Mm... a breath and just like relax. Mm-hmm. And, um, that's... That is where we get to hang out. [laughs] Yeah.
53:10
There's plenty of fear being broadcast, and just to hang out. What if, what if it is all absolutely as designed? There is a plan. There is order. It's all okay. Mm. And we might not know what's next.
53:29
What, what if it's all okay? Beautiful. Mm. I think that is the perfect note to end on. Um, so thank you so much, Sydney. I've really enjoyed this conversation today. Me too. Such a pleasure.
53:43
Thank you for creating this space, and I'm, I'm so thankful to connect with everybody here, all the energies and all the other speakers, everybody listening. I just feel this like...
53:53
I see a picture of the Earth and just all these like little light bulbs going off all around the planet and bringing more of ourselves in. It feels great. [laughs] Yes, indeed.
54:05
