    Why You Don't Need to Change

    Catherine explores a paradox: how can we grow and change without making ourselves wrong or trying to become somebody different?   Drawing on an Enlightenment Intensive workshop she attended years ago, she asks whether we can give up wanting to change and instead surrender to accepting ourselves and our lives as they are. She suggests that our power lies in being present with what is true now, rather than fighting with ourselves.   Catherine distinguishes between working on aspects of our behaviour and trying to change who we fundamentally are. She uses her own capacity for being bossy as an example, and explains how accepting that part of herself actually reduced its hold on her and created more freedom to choose how she behaved.   She also explores this through the metaphor of a garden. We can remove dead growth, clear paths and help the roses thrive without believing the garden is fundamentally broken. In the same way, we can work on our relationships, behaviour, attitudes or knowledge from a place of self-trust and acceptance.   The invitation is to surrender into exactly who you are now, while remaining free to learn, grow and make changes by choice rather than from a belief that you need fixing.   #SelfAcceptance #PersonalGrowth #Presence   ==================   Where our conversation went:   00:09 Changing without trying to change   00:25 Giving up wanting to change   01:05 Where our power really is   01:28 Accepting the parts of ourselves we struggle with   02:34 Why Catherine works with change   03:07 What we miss when trying to be somebody else   03:48 Working on something without needing to be different   04:14 Changing from a place of self-trust   05:07 Behaviour is not the essence of who we are   05:33 The garden as a metaphor for ourselves   07:44 The difference between working on something and changing who we are   08:10 Could you give up wanting to change?   08:17 Surrendering while still choosing to grow   #SelfAcceptance #PersonalGrowth #Presence #podmatch   =======================   ✦ Make the most of your calling;   Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine:   https://beingspace.world/#explore   🤝 Join our Being Space Community  ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world  ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn  ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world  ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld  ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world   Support the podcast:  https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    What If You’re Ready to Leave Everything Behind? Following Your Inner Spark with Nedjma Belaid

    Catherine welcomes Nedjma Belaid, who guides self-aware women to release roles, protections and conditioning that no longer serve them and reconnect with their truth.   A former pharmacist and Tony Robbins coach, Nedjma is a clinical hypnotherapist and NLP master practitioner and trainer. She has facilitated over 2,500 transformational sessions and continues her own journey in deep inner alchemy. She created the Sacred Undressing Journey and the Five-Pointed Star Path to help women become aligned and turned on through high consciousness leadership.   Nedjma describes the “fire within” as the spark that leads us towards what inspires us and creates aliveness. They explore her journey from mathematics and pharmacy to coaching, the courage to leave secure careers, and the challenge of knowing when something is truly not aligned rather than simply uncomfortable.   They discuss self-selection, why seekers may need a path rather than a promised result, and how Nedjma's Sacred Undressing Journey helps people uncover layers of conditioning, wounds, coping mechanisms and limiting beliefs through four archetypes: the Sovereign, Warrior, Lover and Mystic.   #FireWithin #SelfDiscovery #ConsciousLeadership   ==================   Where our conversation went:   01:55 The fire within and what it means   03:10 Choosing a path that feels alive   04:24 From pharmacy to personal development   06:00 Leaving a secure career to follow the spark   08:11 Becoming a Tony Robbins coach   13:50 Leaving Tony Robbins and following the next shift   16:11 What was making coaching feel misaligned   21:20 Creating a different coaching model   24:00 Working with seekers and self-selection   26:29 Why results are not the whole point   31:29 The Sacred Undressing Journey   32:58 The Sovereign, Warrior, Lover and Mystic   35:15 Building a business that feels aligned   38:44 Discernment, fear and knowing what is truly aligned   42:08 A message for people following their own path   #Surrender #Intuition #SelfDiscovery #podmatch   Where to find Nedjma Belaid:   https://withkindawareness.substack.com   =======================   ✦ Make the most of your calling;   Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine:   https://beingspace.world/#explore   🤝 Join our Being Space Community  ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world  ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn  ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world  ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld  ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world   Support the podcast:  https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    What If Everything In Your Life Is Something You Attracted?

    In this episode of Truth and Transcendence, Catherine explores attraction and the law of attraction from her particular point of view. What are we attracting towards us right now? And what would we like to attract?   Rather than approaching attraction as simply thinking positively or believing hard enough that we will get what we want, Catherine invites us to treat it as an experiment: what if everything in our lives is something we have attracted towards us? Not as a reason for blame, but as an opportunity to become more conscious of the energy, vibration and messages we are expressing.   She explores the relationship between what we do and who we are, the importance of embodying the qualities we want to attract, clearing unhelpful conditioning and questioning our beliefs. She also shares a simple practice for noticing what we are attracting in each moment—and why humour and having fun may be some of the most powerful ingredients of all.   #attraction #consciousness #selfawareness   ================== Where our conversation went: 00:10 – What is attraction, and what attracts what? 00:42 – The different levels of attraction. 01:35 – What are we attracting towards us? 01:53 – A thought experiment: what if everything in our lives has been attracted by us? 02:51 – Moving beyond blame and treating the idea as an experiment. 03:12 – Seeing ourselves as an energetic beacon or magnet. 03:31 – What would we like to attract, and what vibration would support that? 03:45 – Embodying what we want to attract. 04:21 – Attraction is about being as well as doing. 04:44 – Letting go of unhelpful habits, conditioning and beliefs. 05:37 – Why attraction cannot be created through the mind alone. 06:35 – Checking in with what we are attracting in each moment. 07:10 – Attraction as an ongoing, moving feast—and the importance of humour. 07:21 – Having fun and interrupting patterns that attract what we don't want. 07:57 – A final invitation to have fun and attract what you want.   #podmatch #attraction #consciousness #selfawareness   Where to find Catherine: https://www.beingspace.world   ========================= ✦ Make the most of your calling Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine: https://beingspace.world/#explore   🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Podcast: https://differentpointspodcast.com ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: / https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Instagram: / https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world/ ✦ Facebook: / https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world   Support the podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    All Is Divinity: Moving Beyond the 'Me' with Indra Rinzler

    Catherine welcomes spiritual seeker, teacher and author Indra Rinzler to explore consciousness, intuition, surrender and living beyond conditioned stories.   Indra explores “all is divinity” — moving beyond seeing everything through the lens of “me”. They discuss observing thoughts and feelings without having to believe or act on them, and allowing opposing truths to coexist.   Indra shares stories from his spiritual journey, including 20 years in a spiritual community, travelling the world and an experience in New Zealand of deep completeness. He describes learning to make decisions from intuition and explores surrender as releasing control and the need to be in charge.   They also explore his work with Vedic astrology, the Enneagram, astrocartography and the Wheel of Totality, and the story behind Indra’s Net.   The episode closes with Indra’s message to open your heart and see yourself as a vehicle through which something greater can move.   #AllIsDivinity #Spirituality #Consciousness   ==================   Where our conversation went:   00:33 What does “all is divinity” mean?   05:13 Observing thoughts without believing them   05:50 Allowing opposing truths to coexist   09:12 Discovering metaphysical bookstores   12:50 Leaving the spiritual community and travelling   14:01 Experiencing completeness in New Zealand   15:39 Making decisions through intuition   20:41 What surrender means   24:03 How Indra came to his work with readings   26:58 Writing Indra’s Net “through” rather than “from” himself   31:15 Living in the place of not knowing   32:14 A book that invites reflection rather than easy answers   35:45 A message for people following a spiritual calling   37:00 Being a vehicle rather than the source   41:01 Closing thoughts and blessings   #Surrender #Intuition #IndrasNet #podmatch   Where to find Indra Rinzler:   https://truthandtranscendence.com   https://indrarinzler.com   Get Indra’s book, Indra’s Net, and explore his work with Vedic astrology, the Enneagram, astrocartography and the Wheel of Totality.   =======================   ✦ Make the most of your calling;   Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine:   https://beingspace.world/#explore   🤝 Join our Being Space Community  ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world  ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn  ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world  ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld  ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world   Support the podcast:  https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    Why the Fastest Route Through Your Organisation Isn't Official

    In this episode of Truth and Transcendence, Catherine explores “wormholes” as a metaphor for unexpected openings within companies, organisations and other complex systems that can create a much quicker route from A to B. A wormhole might be a junior person reaching the CEO with an important message, or an unexpected connection providing exactly the knowledge needed to unlock a problem. The key is recognising that possibilities can exist beyond established structures. Catherine explores how wormholes may reveal themselves through unexpected conversations, connections or emerging groups, and invites us to stay receptive rather than dismissing developments simply because they were unplanned. It is a playful exploration of organisational change, possibility and emergence – and the idea that the quickest route through a complex system may not be the official one.   #Wormholes #OrganisationalChange #Leadership ================== Where our conversation went: 00:01 Welcome to Truth and Transcendence 00:09 What is a wormhole? 01:04 Wormholes in companies, organisations, cultures and countries 01:38 Discovering organisational wormholes through change work 02:10 How you know when you have found a wormhole 02:54 A junior employee reaching the CEO 03:00 Unexpected connections that unlock organisational problems 03:32 What makes an organisational wormhole surprising and unpredictable 03:47 Why analysis alone will not necessarily reveal a wormhole 04:09 Believing that unexpected possibilities can exist 04:54 How entrenched cultures can cause organisations to miss opportunities 05:23 Opening up to wormholes in complex situations 05:40 Recognising the signs that a wormhole may be opening 06:07 Using unexpected connections to create new possibilities 06:10 The invitation to play with the idea Where to find more episodes: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Make the most of your calling; Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine: https://beingspace.world/#explore 🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Podcast: https://different-points-podcast.com/ ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world Support the podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    Why You Don't Fit In (And Why That's Good) with David Collura

    Catherine Llewellyn welcomes David Collura to explore what it means to risk being original when our spiritual interests and personal path do not fit easily with other people's expectations.   David has taught spirituality, energy and non ordinary states of awareness for more than 15 years. He previously taught with the International Academy of Consciousness and now works with Mosaic Wellness and Education, a nonprofit he co founded with his wife Ashley and three colleagues. He is also the author of Multidimensional Lens: Practical Ideas for Spiritual Co Creation.   They explore authenticity, the risk of not being understood, practical energy work and energetic hygiene, and developing a more creative dialogue with life. David's message: do not discount any part of yourself or your experience. Bring all of yourself into the journey.   #Originality #Spirituality #EnergyWork   ==================   Where our conversation went:   01:48 Risking being original   04:48 What we risk on an unconventional path   06:39 The need to be seen and understood   09:12 How spirituality helped David know himself   11:23 Finding courage to follow your path   13:00 Experiential spiritual practices   16:20 Energy work and our energetic ecosystem   19:20 How spiritual practice changes life   21:09 A more expansive relationship with life   22:45 Agency and creativity   28:14 Energetic hygiene   30:15 David's nightly energy practice   32:23 Mosaic Wellness and Education   35:21 David's message to people following their path   37:47 David's favourite part of the conversation   #podmatch #Spirituality #EnergyWork #SelfDiscovery   Where to find David Collura:   https://energyaudiobook.com   Mosaic Wellness and Education YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MosaicWellnessAndEducation   =========================   ✦ Make the most of your calling;   Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine:   https://beingspace.world/#explore   🤝 Join our Being Space Community  ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com  ✦ Podcast: https://different-points-podcast.com  ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world  ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn  ✦Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld  ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world   Support the podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    Why You're Losing Corporate Clients (And How to Fix It)

    Catherine Llewellyn shares lessons she learned from a long and successful career as an executive coach working at Board level in large corporates.  Her work brought together consciousness, self awareness, presence, energy and spirituality, alongside organisational change and business performance.  She explains how introductions opened the door to corporate clients, why finding out what people actually want is more effective than trying to persuade them to buy what you are offering, and how to use skill, authenticity and courage to build trust.  The episode offers practical reflections for anyone working with, or wanting to work with, corporate clients. It explores introductions, authentic contracting, balanced cooperation and the importance of consciously reviewing what is happening within the client relationship #CorporateClients #ExecutiveCoaching #Consulting ================== Where our conversation went: 00:55 How Catherine came to work with senior corporate clients 01:41 The three things that enabled Catherine to enter and succeed in the corporate world 01:59 Why introductions can open doors to corporate clients 03:18 The potential downside when sales and delivery are disconnected 05:13 Finding out what clients actually want rather than persuading them to buy 06:38 Why manipulation does not work and authenticity does 08:15 The importance of meaningful work and positive experiences for senior executives 09:44 Developing an offering that genuinely helps clients achieve what they want 10:48 Trust, skill and courageous communication 11:49 Leaving the organisation and setting up independently 12:18 The research question that led Catherine to interview senior executives 13:14 Interviewing 39 people across around 30 organisations 14:30 What the research revealed about consultant client relationships 14:49 The unconscious parent child dynamic between consultant and client 16:24 Why unconscious role patterns can create problems 17:57 Subpersonalities and the different wants and needs people bring to a working relationship 19:27 Three practical considerations for anyone working with corporate clients 20:05 Creating mutual, balanced cooperation 20:12 Building review and reassessment into the contract 20:30 Recognising unconscious dynamics and unspoken needs #podmatch #CorporateConsulting #ExecutiveCoaching #Authenticity ========================= ✦ Make the most of your calling; Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine: https://beingspace.world/#exploratory-call 🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Podcast: https://different-points-podcast.com/ ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world Support the podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate

    What If You Could See The World With Fresh Eyes? with Stephan Kerby

    Catherine Llewellyn welcomes Stephan Kerby, who goes by Kerby, to explore curiosity, openness and how these qualities can change the way we experience ourselves and the world. Kerby's own journey through depression, anxiety and a search for fulfilment led him into exploring consciousness, healing and identity. Today he works with people around transformation while continuing to question who we are beneath the stories we tell ourselves. Kerby shares how curiosity has guided him throughout his life, including a childhood insight about watching the world like a movie and having some choice about how we respond. They explore how becoming curious about our thoughts, beliefs and programming can create space for different responses and new patterns. The conversation also explores psychedelics as a tool rather than an identity, the danger of putting ourselves and others into boxes, and the possibility of continually evolving rather than deciding that we have everything figured out. #Curiosity #Openness #HumanTransformation ================== Where our conversation went: 01:39 Kerby's lifelong relationship with curiosity 02:51 A childhood insight about watching the world like a movie 04:01 Creating space between what happens and our automatic reactions 05:39 Psychedelics as a tool and the psychology of transformation 07:19 Curiosity as a way of staying open rather than trying to be right 08:23 Questioning our beliefs and remaining open to change 10:14 A bird's nest and noticing the extraordinary things happening around us 13:02 Curiosity about humans, nature, the universe and the beauty surrounding us 15:31 Asking whether our beliefs are actually helping us in this moment 17:52 Mortality, limited time and asking how we want to spend our lives 19:14 The problem with putting people into boxes based on their roles 22:31 Identity and the danger of replacing one identity with another 24:35 Allowing our work and understanding to evolve over time 25:49 Radical transformation and the possibility that anybody can change 26:25 Seeing friends and family with fresh eyes 28:03 Kerby's first psychedelic experience and the beginning of a new journey 31:54 Identity and the first stage of awakening 32:11 Metacognition and learning to notice our thoughts 32:55 Creating space between a thought and our response 33:38 Choosing whether to repeat old patterns or create a new future 35:15 Noticing physical reactions without automatically acting on them 36:49 Kerby's message of hope for anyone who feels stuck 37:18 Free will, automatic patterns and giving ourselves grace 38:15 Moving beyond the expectation that we should be happy all the time 38:44 If you don't feel you are living the life you want, there is hope 38:55 Asking how we want to spend the finite time we have 39:13 Choosing the version of ourselves that brings greater contentment and peace   #podmatch #Curiosity #SelfAwareness #HumanTransformation   Where to find Stephan Kerby: https://mindscapeinstitute.org ========================= ✦ Make the most of your calling; Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine: https://beingspace.world/#explore 🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Podcast: https://different-points-podcast.com/ ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world Support the podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate
