Welcome to one of the very first episodes of the Soul

inspired you podcast with Beth and Mel.

My name is Beth Yewitt. I am a spiritual business performance and clarity

coach, and I help people go from feeling unfulfilled to passionately

living their life purpose. And I work with

pre starts and growing businesses, helping them really to reconnect

to their soul's calling and their vision, and then to

take action on that vision. And I'm here with my co

host, Melissa. Hi everybody, I am Melissa Amos. I

work with people on their spiritual path and really help them

understand who they are and where they're coming from and where

it is they're going, so that they can create a life led

by soul. I am very excited to always just talk

about anything energetic and consciousness

and dive deep into rabbit holes of

creation and philosophy and

energetics and co creation. So I'm very

excited. Everything. All the things. All of the things. Yeah. I'm very excited

to see and discover what transpires over these

coming weeks. So I thought today

we'll start by pulling some cards, because we both

do readings as part of the offerings that we

do. And I thought, given it's one of the first episodes, why not pull some

cards to see what comes through in terms? What are the

messages that maybe the universe wants to share with our listeners

today? And then we'll talk more about how this podcast actually came

to be, because it in itself was an inspired

download that we decided to take action on. Mel, have you got your

cards there? I've got my cards. I have my cards here. One of

my favourite decks, which is the gateway of light activation

Oracle by Kyle Gray and Jez

Hawkeye. And I think the first

question to ask is, what is the direction of this

show? Because just to give the listeners a little bit of

background that this has been soul inspired.

Soul literally inspired us with the name, with doing

this, and there's less of a agenda and

more of a guidance that we're coming up. So let's start with

that. And the first card that has come up is the

emerald tablet activation, is this

beautiful emerald green pillar

of light that seems to be surrounding

another pillar of light. And for me, this really is about

divine downloads, but more so

bringing divine downloads through and actually this

bringing them into fruition, making them something that is real. And

I know something that, Beth, this is something that you are

really into and concerned about and

good at guiding people through that. It's very easy to have an

idea like the idea of this show, like coming

together, but actually there's action

that needs to be taken. Yeah. And what this is saying

for me is that we are to be open to

downloads from the universe or the activating energy. Maybe sometimes

we'll get into quite deep or controversial subjects,

I don't know. And it's our job to bring

that in and to bring this new perspective in this new energy

into what you and us are all hearing through

that. Love it. I think that's the perfect

card for the direction of the

show and what is an inspired thought that

has been brought up through us. We've taken action on it. It's totally

creative, and we're just being led to see where, where the

universe wants to take us with this. So I love that is their message in

terms of direction. So I was trying to shuffle the cars quietly

so it wasn't going to get too picked up on the microphone while we're doing

that. And the card that I've pulled as I was

shuffling was, what is the intention that the universe wants for us

right now in terms of how we approach the show, but also

what our listeners can hope to get out of the show as well. And

the card that has come up is celebration, which is always a

nice card to have celebrations. It's from the oracle

of the unicorns. Enter an enchanted realm of the magic

and miracles of the unicorns by Cordelia Francesca

brabs. And it says on the card, a positive

outcome is assured. That's always nice when you're starting the podcast, isn't it?

Celebrate your success and enjoy your

achievements. And so for me, this is about, as

we approach the podcast and as we move forward with it, that we

always stay in that space of

joy and excitement and celebration for who we

are, what we're creating, and

how we're helping other people. Hopefully, Alisters are getting some downloads of

their own just through listening, and that it

doesn't want to become a chore. We don't be that podcast where it becomes a

char, but actually it's a really nice thing that happens every week. We come together

and have conversations about things that, I might add, are completely unscripted.

That was one of the things that we decided that we were going to do,

is that we would talk about things that we were inspired with through the week

or a theme or a card or something. And so I think it's a good

reminder to us that this isn't about a chore. This is about actually

just doing what comes really easily to us and celebrating who we

are and our inspiration and moving forward with that. And helping other

people and our listeners see and celebrate themselves.

Everything that has come before in their lives and what they've achieved and how they

can tap into their own intuition and knowledge and wisdom from before

and just enjoy our achievements generally. I think

those two cards are perfect for the start of today. I'm already loving

the podcast already my. Favorite time of the

week. It is a celebration, isn't it? And

I look at. We've known each other a while, but we've not

connected loads. Not really, no. The listeners will all

witness the unfolding of our relationship as well,

which I'm excited about and what has always struck me

about you and probably why we get on so well,

is that we are both aware

that we have both consciously created our

lives. And who'd have thought, right, that it was possible to

literally love what it. Is that you do. Yeah.

For something like this, I can understand why maybe people find

recordings a chore or I have to do this. This is part of the thing.

But this is literally, this is what lights me up. This is what lights you

up. And I think that if you're listening to

this or you're drawn to this, this is going to be the sort of conversations

that light you up too. And whilst we

can always be in celebration of that, the truth

is that our emotions move up and down and we have our ups

and we have our downs and we have all those things in between. But as

we can keep grounding into that, knowing that

we are co creating our life

and we are co creating the way that we show up in the world

and the way that the world shows up for us. Yeah.

And I actually think it's in those down times as well.

That's where we can actually, when we're ready, not in the moment, obviously, you have

to go through the emotions and feel everything, but after that time, when you're

ready, there's real magic in those downs

and it takes. It's hard to change perspective around that, especially

when we're in the moment. But yeah, hopefully, whoever, whoever you are,

whenever you're listening to this, whatever's going on for you, whether you're on a high

or a low, I hope you can find some blessing,

some joy, some whatever that is for you in the moment as you're listening to

this, speaking. About that, I just pulled another card for the

listeners. I'm like, what's going to get out? Who's going to be here, like, at

05:00 with all these cards? No joking. Literally, I've cleared the table.

I've cleared the deck. And I've got all the decks.

We're the decks for the decks. And I just thought, okay, what are the listeners

going to be? Because you're the ones listening to this and you're thinking, this is

all very great, Melissa and Beth learning about you, but what about me? And

we've got the tossed light codes, and this is the teacher

awakening. And sometimes

when we are listening to others

talking about their experiences and their

understandings, and both of us have done a lot of studying and

contemplations and research into various

energetic tools. And when we listen to

that and when we're exposed to that, it's not about

necessarily understanding or agreeing with anything that we

say. And certainly Beth and I, we may have some

different opinions on things, and that's okay. This is about

you understanding and taking in whatever it is that

lands within you and then

presenting that or articulating that or

bringing your own understanding to it so that you can bring your own

divinity and your own creation and your own

initiation into that. So for me,

this is saying to the listeners, to just to receive,

but also use what we're talking about to create your own

answers and to launch your own

lessons of inquiry. And maybe if you are a teacher or a coach

or a mentor or you're looking to go into that, you can use some

of these topics of discussions to really land

into your perspective and how you feel about that.

Love it. I'd also love our listeners to get in touch with them,

let us know what their aha. Moments have been or what

the conversations have sparked in them. I'd really love to see the ripple

effect of that. So maybe we'll let people know where they can contact us at

the end of the show. Shall we talk about a little bit about how

this came to be? As I said at the beginning of the show, I'm a

spiritual performance coach. I work with businesses and startup

businesses, and I have a membership called the

Visualize and Thrive Business Club. And within that

we do all kinds of things. We have visualizations and meditations,

we have group coaching, we have a mastermind, but we also

have guest experts coming to the group every single month.

And last month it was actually my beautiful friend

KJ who was going to be coming along. She's still coming along into the membership,

but KG, who I've been working with for a while on her

own vision. Her vision was to run retreats all

over the world. And so she's. Yeah, she's been doing retreats in

Bali and Scotland and Hawaii and California

all over the place. And it was my own fault.

That's probably not the right word. But in KJ, following her passion and

vision and taking action on that, she was off there gallivanting around the world.

And when we checked in the day before the guest expert session, she was

like, I'm in Indonesia and I think

I've got my time zones mixed up. So we were like, okay, it doesn't matter.

We will come together when the time is right. Now at that point. So that

session was going to be on creativity for

spiritual entrepreneurs. And at that point, I could have just messaged my

members and said, okay, we've cancelled tonight, we'll reschedule. But

something in me said, do you know what? And this is how I like to

try and approach life generally, is that challenges are

an opportunity in disguise that we can navigate our way around. And

so it was about, I want to say it was about 230 in the

afternoon and this session was at 730 at night. But I thought, you know what,

if we don't ask, we don't get. So I went into our friend

Desde Brava's community and I asked the question, would

anybody want to speak to my members this evening on the topic

of creativity for spiritual entrepreneurs?

And then what happened, Mel? So I'm at home thinking

I've got a nice evening off tonight because I do. I

also run a membership and similar, we

have experts come in and I run a variety of workshops

on all things spiritual. We're very broad with

our, with our discussions. And

I was at home and I had a rare evening off, like normally my

quite jam packed. And I saw

this post and I'm

not even sure I quite read it properly right, because I just

saw, do you want to, someone wants to come into my community and I've been

into your community before for, and I was like,

yeah, I can do that. My diary is free.

And then when we were speaking about,

okay, what's it going to be about? And you were like, oh, it's about creativity.

In with spirituality, I thought, oh, this is

interesting because I've actually not presented on that topic before. But

it's for me, spirituality

is a creation or a co creation.

And what I've learned about my own

journey and working with my clients and my members is

that our spiritual experience or

our spiritual progression is very much about how

we express and who we are and getting to know

ourselves. And one of the biggest vehicles for getting to know ourselves

is through our creative pursuits, whether that's speaking or drawing

or channeling or making a garden, or

I think one of the examples was sorting out your bookshelves or creating

a crystal grid in your home. And

so I just jumped in and I thought, let's see what happens.

But also, another motivation for me was about two

weeks prior, I was, I was in the woods, and

I had a notification on my phone. I kept getting

tagged, and it was because Beth was

running her 30 day program.

Yeah. And I was like, oh. And I was getting loads of

notifications, and I opened it up, and Beth was doing

bibliomancy with my book, memoirs of a mystic in

training. And I just loved that. I was like, oh. So I really

felt I wanted to give you something back, offering that

as well. Yeah. So we did the presentation, and

it was a really nice discussion about opening

up to the possibilities and just going with that

inspiration and knowing that creation doesn't have to be

perfect, but creation just is for creation's

sake. Yeah. Then I think it was you

that when, we should just talk about this on a podcast.

Yeah. So Mel came into the session that evening,

did a really amazing, I mean, again, it was an unscripted, it

was an interview style conversation, wasn't it, about creativity, inspiration, and taking

action, and the memory were all engaged. It was really

uplifting and positive. And at the end of it,

actually, just before the end of it, I got another download because we were talking

about, when do you take action on those inspired thoughts? And we'll get more into

that, I think, as we go through the different episodes. But this was one where

I knew that actually, I should take action on it,

because how often do we have those downloads, which are probably for our good and

our growth, but we don't necessarily take action on them for a myriad of reasons.

We might be too busy, or life is just getting in the way, or we,

we want to do something else in that moment. But I thought, you know what?

We've had a really inspired conversation, completely

unscripted. What if this was a podcast? What if we

rocked up every week, not knowing what the other

person was going to be talking about, and just listened to where the

conversation could naturally go, just through spirit guiding us?

And literally, I think I closed the zoom, and then I messaged

Mel. I was like, we should start podcasting. And at

first, I was thinking in my head, I was like, as we all get those

imposter syndrome of, oh, Mel's not going to want to do a podcast with me

or these thoughts that we have, I thought, you know what? No, I'm acting on

this. It's been given to me as an inspired thought, and I

was like, mel, we should do a podcast. It wasn't even, do you want to

do a podcast? I think it was, we should do a podcast. And then here

we are. But it's nice to know that your backstory in terms of,

like, the notification, that was what actually led you

to want to do this and the session in the membership

as well, we should probably say what bibliomancy or

bibliotherapy is as well for anybody who is not,

you know, familiar with that concept. That's literally where a

little bit like what we're doing with the Oracle cards. Yeah, let's do it now.

Let's do it now. Let me explain it. And you can do it with your

book. So you explain. So when we pull a card and we're inspired and

we channel that thought, bibliomancy or bibliotherapy,

somebody could ask a specific question. So you can do this if you haven't got

oracle cards, but you've got a book shelf full of books at

home. And I've literally done it with the craziest of books. I've done it with

books about filmmaking, just. And books about

directors and things like that. Just crazy things. And you ask a question, you set

that intention. You ask that question. Or you could just ask for some general guidance.

And whatever page you land on, as you're flicking through the

book, you feel called to stop on, you read the first thing that

catches your eye, that page. So on that evening,

inside the 30 day gratitude and vision building

journey, I was doing a session that evening. And actually, it's funny

now we're talking about it, because prior, I've gone off on a

tangent here, but prior to that, the night before, I'd said to my members, we've

got an evening tomorrow together. What do you want to do? And they were

saying, oh, and they were giving all of these ideas, and then I just had

the thought of, do you know what? We haven't done any bibliotherapy. Bibliomancy in the

group. Let's do that. And so it was actually an inspired thought

downloaded again to do it. And I just love how now we're here. Like,

it's just, it's crazy, isn't it? So

shall we ask a general question, or shall we, have you got a question, Mel,

that we could ask the book, Mel, actually tell the listeners what book you're actually

got in your hands there, because that's quite important. It's

called memoirs of a mystic in training. And it's the story

of my spiritual growth and understanding and

all the questions, the thousand million questions that

came up during that, and some of the answers or

inspirations that I'd received in. So

I thought it would be nice because, like, then, because we're a team now. Why

don't you give me. So we'll ask the question for the listeners,

but why don't you give me the page number, and we'll go from

there. 14 early.

Let's see. Are we really

in control? Nothing destined. Could

my astral chart, my bezy chart, my human design, my soul plan,

my religion, my ancestral line, my akashic records, my

beliefs, my personality type? Might anything truly be the

answer? If so, which one is right? And what is

really the point of it all? Are we trying to break free from a

matrix that isn't serving us? Or is there something else that

is just there if we just tap into it? And how do we do that

if it's true? Is divinity out there or in here?

And where, oh, where, do these answers lie?

I think that's a whole other podcast episode

series, but, yeah.

What's going on? I know that when I was little, very

little, like at four years old, I could. I was very

sad. So I talk like I'm quite smiley and positive a lot of

the time now. That's how people see me, and I'm very upbeat. But I wasn't

always that way. And when I was little, I was so sad. Like,

miserable. I never smiled in any pictures at school, whenever

all the other girls and boys were playing with dolls or Lego

or cars or whatever you wanted to play with, I was very much

in solitude and in my head, and I didn't want to play with dolls, and

I didn't want to play mums and dads, and I didn't want to do all

of these things that were lining us up for work or whatever. I could see

very early on that I was on a

conveyor belt and heading towards something that I didn't necessarily want to be part

of. And that was the thread from a very

young age. But also, I discovered visualization

when I was four as well. So that

imagination piece with me was my salvation and helped me

to create my own world and travel that path with

that, but still knowing I was heading towards, I have to be in school, I

have to go, I have to get an education, I have to get a

job, I have to do all of these things. So for me,

it was very much about trying to find my way out of the

societal structures that we have

and always looking and searching

for the thing that I was supposed to be doing. And that

leads us to all of these wonderful things like the Akashic records and oracle card

readings and all of these different modalities and things.

So it's an interesting path that all of us are on.

I think that, like, for me, that discussion is

about, well, how much of it is predestined in fated

and how much of it is in my control. And this whole

conversation about if I can manifest and co

create. So if that's on one side of the coin, but the other

side of the coin is when everything is predetermined,

then where's the middle ground for that? Yeah. And

I'm not even sure I can call it a conclusion, but my contemplation

around that at the moment is that it really is a blend of both.

Yeah. Perhaps one of our

missions here is to understand all of that. Do I think that our

human design and that our soul plan and that our

astrology charts and all of this and our

ancestry line all play a part? Absolutely, massively. I think

all of those come into this understanding of knowing

ourself. And as we know ourselves, then we can meet ourselves where we

are, but that's then where

the co creation comes in. And this understanding is,

you shared that story that you were very sad. You couldn't have high

vibed your way out of that. You couldn't have said, oh, I need to be

happy. You need to acknowledge, well, okay, I'm sad. And then maybe it's

because I see myself in this conveyor belt. I don't want to be on this

conveyor belt. What I do want is this. And yes, I know I need to

function as a human in society because we do. We'd be no

use if we were out in spirit land, because then

we'll be having all the frustrations of all those spirit guides. Imagine

that. So, for me, when

I started to contemplate this, I came into this understanding

that fate was one thing. Fate was that thing you're talking about.

Yeah. That convey about that. I have to do this. I have to conform. I

have this sadness, or I have this anxiety, or I have this

tendency, and that's what's going to drive me, and it's going to keep driving me

forward. Fate will give us these interventions that

sit in between. Yeah. But for me, that's very different to our

destiny, because I think our destiny is that thing that's pulling us, that's going,

okay, this is what you've known to be true. This is what society

have told you is true. This is the conditions in which you found

yourself. But actually you can break free. This

doesn't have to be your only reality, that you

can use all of this to leap forward

or to launch into something new, or

to actually use what you knew

to fuel you rather than

guide you. And that is where that intuition

and that inspiration and that visualization and that goal

setting, if we can bring all of that into alignment with

our soul plan, in our human design, in our astrology and

our all on our akashic records and all of these other things, and

suddenly things flow and we find ourselves having an inspiration

to share a book that you'd only would have just got because it only

came out a few weeks before, on a day that you happen

to not have anything to do, and then you happen to

book in a person who then you happen to have

an idea, maybe I'll put it out there. And it happened to be on my

night off and it happened to be me feeling that, well, actually I could do

this. And me not reading the brief properly, all things

happen because suddenly we're opening up into

a possibility rather than what could have been, which is, oh,

someone's cancelled, that's a pain. And now I need to. And now,

which this always happens to me kind of story.

Yeah, that is. I think that's part of the magic

of this discovery of what's possible for us.

I completely agree. And I think all of the tools that we have

and the human design and all of that, it's a map, it's there to help

and guide us and maybe to get us back on track a little bit and

to learn more about ourselves. But it's when we start pushing on

that, I often that co creation is a little bit like a

door that's open and ready to be pushed, but you're not

quite through it. And then the universe is at the other side, and then as

you push through that, the universe comes to meet you on the other side and

that's where the co creation happens. But, yeah, we go on these wonderful journeys

to get to that point and that's hopefully what we're going to hopefully inspire

our listeners to do as well.

So I think this has been a wonderful first conversation. I'm so excited for all

of the future conversations that we've got to have. Coming up. I

think I'm thinking we should maybe do like a male

interview. We should do an interview all about you and your life story. Maybe you

can interview me, and we can talk about mine and let listeners

know a little bit more about who we are and our world and everything.

But have you got anything to add to today's

amazing first episode? I've always

got something to add. I think let's use our

time together. So you and me, Beth and the listeners,

let's use our time together to really explore and open

up. And I think that this conversation is going to be less

about answers and more about exploration and

discovery and allowing that to be so. With that

in mind, we'd love to hear if you've received something from this and

what that is, but also if there's anything that you would like us

to contemplate or discuss, we'd

love to hear any inspirations from that.

And life unfolds, and it's magic. And I think that we have

more say in what we do than we think.
