    Season 2, Episode 4: Failing Forward: How Setbacks Fuel Your Soul

    In this insightful and candid episode of Ask Colleen, Colleen St. Michaels explores the concept of "failing forward" and how setbacks can fuel soul growth. Sharing personal anecdotes and experiences from her clients, Colleen encourages listeners to view failure not as an end, but as a stepping stone toward personal and spiritual expansion. Life may feel like it’s "under construction"—literally and metaphorically—but Colleen reminds us that obstacles are opportunities for transformation. This episode dives deep into how fear of failure, disappointment, and fear of looking foolish can hold us back from living fully. Colleen emphasizes the importance of taking radical accountability for our choices, emotions, and healing. Key Takeaways: Redefining Failure: Colleen discusses how failure is simply a first attempt in learning (F.A.I.L). Shifting our mindset can turn these experiences into valuable lessons for growth, rather than allowing them to paralyze us with fear or shame. Fear and Shame: Many of us are held back by the fear of failure, which often leads to self-sabotage. Colleen encourages us to have honest, intimate conversations with ourselves about our fears and what is truly holding us back. Lessons from Setbacks: Colleen shares personal stories, including one about a rejected car purchase that turned into a better opportunity later. She encourages listeners to reflect on past disappointments and identify the hidden blessings or lessons that emerged from those experiences. Spiritual Practices for Resilience: Colleen outlines spiritual tools like meditation, mindfulness, and the powerful Hawaiian prayer, Ho’oponopono. These practices can help us release negative beliefs and ground ourselves in peace. The Power of Self-Compassion: Treat yourself with the same kindness you would offer a best friend. Colleen reminds us that disappointment and loss do not define us—what we learn from them does. Spiritual Insights: Fear of failure doesn’t have to control your life. When we fail forward, we open ourselves to new opportunities and growth. Spiritual practices, from breathwork to self-compassion, can help us navigate setbacks and reconnect with our soul’s genius. Practical Tips: Practice a "body scan" meditation to locate where fear of failure is held in the body, and release it. Use Ho’oponopono to clear negative energy and make space for healing. Reflect on your attachments—are they based on your soul’s desires or on fear? Join Colleen for this empowering episode and learn how to embrace failure as a necessary and transformative part of your spiritual journey.

    Season 2, Episode 2: From Fear to Freedom: How to Break Free from a Lifetime of Anxiety and Unlock Your Soul's Genius

    Learn how to overcome a lifetime of anxiety and fear, and discover practical steps to unlock your soul's genius. Break free from fear-based living and embrace inner peace and presence. Content: Growing up, fear was the love language spoken in my household. It wasn't about fearing or worrying about my basic needs or my parents being met, but rather about participating in activities outside those four walls. Even seemingly natural activities, like walking to a friend's house, would become the subject of elaborate dissertations about all the potential dangers I might encounter. I could get hit by a car while crossing the street, be kidnapped by a stranger, or simply get lost. From a young age, I was unconsciously programmed to live in fear of everything and everyone, to believe that stepping beyond my front door meant stepping into danger. This constant fear was like a blockage in my soul grid, preventing me from living in my natural state of being and expressing my soul's genius. I thought I'd done much inner work to overcome the unconscious joylessness I carried within me until I met an unexpected teacher. My partner and I decided to get our boating licenses and needed to complete an on-water certification. I was prepared to feel anxious about being in charge of a vessel. As I was performing one of the test requirements, the captain said, "Relax, boating is meant to be fun and a place to feel free. Of course, you want to take it seriously, but you can't let your overthinking and fear outweigh the joy of it." Boom! That comment hit me like a wave. I asked him, "How do I relax, then?" He replied, "When you're relaxed, you can be present and respond to any dangers that might arise." At that moment, it was like watching a video montage of my life, seeing all the moments that could have been fun but that I chose to be uncomfortable and worry through it sit out because I didn't have the emotional and mental energy to invest. It was a sign that I needed to clear the fear blockage from my soul grid. The Lesson: Shifting from Fear to Freedom and Unlocking Your Soul's Genius The captain's words were a wake-up call. I realized I'd been letting fear hold me back for far too long. As a personal inner investigator, I asked myself how I could shift from this mindset and clear the blockages in my soul grid on a deeper level. Here are some lessons I've learned on my journey from fear to freedom: Awareness is the first step: You can't change what you're unaware of. Take time to reflect on when and where fear arises in your life. What triggers it? How does it make you feel and react? Notice how it blocks your soul grid and prevents you from being your true self. Challenge those fears: Often, our fears are rooted in worst-case scenarios or unlikely events. Challenge those fears by asking yourself if they're based on reality. What are the chances that the feared outcome will occur? As you challenge your fears, imagine clearing dense energy from your soul grid. Practice presence: Fear often lives in the future or past. I'd like you to practice returning your focus to the present moment. What do you see, hear, feel? Presence is a powerful antidote to fear. Cultivate self-compassion: Treat yourself with kindness, just as you would a close friend. Remind yourself that it's okay to feel fear and that you have the strength to navigate through it. Embrace joy and freedom: Allow yourself to experience joy and freedom in the moments you can. This could be as simple as taking a few deep breaths, going for a short walk, or doing something you love. As you embrace joy and freedom, you'll create space for your soul's genius to shine. It's time to break free from fear-based living and unlock your soul's genius. You can clear the blockages in your soul grid and live a life of presence, joy, and freedom. You can start your journey today.

    Season 2 Episode 1: Embrace Your Divine Genius: Break Free from Holding Back and Let Your Soul Shine

    Description: Discover how to overcome the patterns of holding back and fully embody your unique gifts and talents. Learn practical steps to embrace your divine genius and live a soul-fulfilling life. Content: Do you feel a burning calling within you, a unique message, gift, or craft that sets your soul ablaze with purpose? Or have you been holding back, dimming your light to fit in, or seeking approval? Holding back is a form of self-betrayal, often rooted in the illusion of separation and the fear of not being enough. It's a pattern that can prevent you from fully embodying your divine genius and living the soul-fulfilling life that's your birthright. When you withhold your gifts, you deprive the world of the love and value you could provide and deny yourself the opportunity to grow, shine, and make a meaningful impact. Your unique talents and perspectives are a part of your sacred essence, and suppressing them can lead to feelings of unfulfillment and disconnection from your true self. But how do we break free from this pattern of holding back? The first step is recognizing how we displace our energy onto distractions that prevent us from facing our fears and fully believing in our divine worth. Common displacement patterns include: Procrastination: Endless distraction by social media, busyness, or escapist behaviors. Comparison: Constantly measuring yourself against others, feeling like you're not good enough. Perfectionism: The quest for perfection as a mask for the fear of imperfection and judgment. It's time to transcend these displacement patterns and face what's holding you back. Your divine genius is a gift, not just to you but to the world. By embracing your uniqueness and sharing your talents boldly, you'll find greater purpose and soul satisfaction and inspire others to do the same. So, what's been holding you back? What message, gift, or craft has been burning inside you, waiting to be expressed? What distractions have you used to displace your energy and avoid leaping? Keywords: soul genius, holding back, self-betrayal, fear of not being enough, comparison, perfectionism, procrastination, embracing uniqueness, soul satisfaction, self-expression, extraordinary life.

    Episode 14: Choosing a Medium: What Qualities to Look for with Kristen Griffiths

    In this episode, Colleen St. Michaels and Kristen Griffiths discuss mediumship and spirituality. Kristen shares her inspiration for starting her podcast, Clarity to Consciousness, which aims to make spirituality more accessible to beginners. They also explore the question of whether anyone can be a medium and what qualities to look for when seeking a medium. Colleen explains the difference between speaking with angels and speaking with loved ones who have crossed over, emphasizing the importance of living life fully and not being afraid to take risks. In this part of the conversation, Colleen St.Michaels discusses the potential dangers and precautions in mediumship practices. She explains that lower vibrational entities are attracted to light and that spiritual hygiene is essential for protection. She emphasizes the importance of personal vibration and discernment when connecting with spirits. Colleen also cautions against using Ouija boards and shares a personal experience of a client who connected with a false light. She advises listeners to trust themselves and their intuition and offers insights into how mediums perceive spirits. About Kristen Griffiths Kristen, host of Clarity to Consciousness podcast, guides listeners on a transformative journey to explore consciousness. Her own path from conventional norms to self-discovery fuels her mission to inspire growth and healing through spirituality and unconventional modalities. Join her for insightful conversations and embark on a voyage to clarify consciousness. Connect with Kristen Website: claritytoconsciousness.substack.com Email: kristen@claritytoconsciousnes.com Instagram: @clarity_to_consciousness YouTube: @ClaritytoConsciousness Takeaways Clarity to Consciousness is a podcast aimed at beginners on their spiritual journey, providing valuable insights and teachings from various guests. Anyone has the capability to practice mediumship and connect with the spiritual realm, but it requires dedication, commitment, and the ability to tune in to the frequency. When seeking a medium, it is important to listen to your gut, ask for referrals, and have a clear intention for the session. Mediumship and speaking with angels intersect in the sense that they are both part of a divine network of support, but they serve different purposes and offer different perspectives. Living life fully and without fear is essential, as our loved ones on the other side encourage us to embrace joy and not be held back by self-imposed limitations. Lower vibrational entities are attracted to light, so it is important to maintain spiritual hygiene and protect one's energy. Personal vibration and discernment are crucial when connecting with spirits to avoid negative or false energies. Using Ouija boards is not recommended as they can invite unwanted entities and negative experiences. Trusting oneself and one's intuition is key in developing mediumship abilities. Mediums may perceive spirits through feelings, images, or thoughts rather than seeing them with their physical eyes.
