    EVOLUTION: Don't allow anyone else's mess to destroy your inner peace

    EVOLUTION: Don't allow anyone else's mess to destroy your inner peace

    Have you ever allowed someone else's mess - their messy relationship, life decisions, chaotic living, clutter, chronic lateness, etc - destroy your inner peace? Or have you ever judged YOURSELF for being "messy" as a human?
    This episode is all about re-framing our understanding of the word "mess", so you won't allow anyone else's mess to destroy your inner peace and you won't judge yourself or others for being "messy" either.
    I talk about:
    the real-life scenario that triggered my ego and sparked this topic idea! (it involves a missed appointment) how we sometimes too quickly interpret an event as bad, wrong, or messy - when in fact it's happening in service of our healing or growth how to detach yourself from other people's "messes" so you can allow them to learn whatever they need to learn, while sustaining your inner peace rescuer/fixer patterns that might be causing you issues - such as a pattern of jumping in to rescue people financially Thank you for tuning in and spending this time with me!

    the 5 main ways you can tell information is genuinely coming from the Akashic Records (or not) potential ego distractions that might block your ability to receive why and how your ego might try to prevent you from growing or healing why time-specific or predictive info is typically NOT coming from the Records important characteristics of genuine Akashic Record readings Explore my Akashic Records Certification Program: https://josephinehardman.com/work-with-me/akashic-records-certification-program/

    EVOLUTION: Living judgment-free

    EVOLUTION: Living judgment-free

    Introducing a brand new series on this podcast... EVOLUTION.
    Your healing journey is a process of continual, ongoing evolution. Of you becoming more evolved every day. Of you evolving beyond old patterns, habits, dysfunctions, defense mechanisms, belief systems, and self-imposed limitations. Evolving beyond the past. Evolving beyond anything that isn't truthfully YOU, at your highest level.
    In this inaugural episode of EVOLUTION, I address the topic of judgment - of both self and others. I talk about:
    how the meaning of the word "judgment" has changed over time how judgment is a form of punishment (and self-punishment) how we sometimes use judgment to try to feel more powerful, better, smarter, or more capable than others  how the impulse to judge arises from a hurt, offended, threatened, or scared ego how we've used judgment in human societies to try to bond with others - but why it's not an authentic form of relating I want to thank Doug for suggesting this topic and being a loyal supporter of Inner Work.
    My Akashic Records Certification Program is open for enrollment for January 2024. Explore the details here:

    Thank you for being here and spending this time with me! May we soften any judgments of ourselves or others.

    Inner Work 162: Stop using the past to victimize yourself (with personal story of school bullying)

    Inner Work 162: Stop using the past to victimize yourself (with personal story of school bullying)

    Are you using the past to victimize yourself? 
    Do you often repeat stories like, "if my parents had done (or not done) XYZ when I was growing up, I would be so much better off today..." or "because I was cheated on 5 years ago, I can't trust men now..." or "if I had gone to school 20 years ago, my life would be better now..."?
    These are stories where we use the past - and whatever happened - to victimize and limit ourselves, unconsciously, in the present.
    In this episode, I share a story of school bullying from my past and how I've used that story to justify my lack of trust in women as an adult. It's a vulnerable episode!
    We'll also talk about how to start detaching from these limiting stories so you can be free, happy, and at peace NOW. (Which is the only thing that really matters.)

    Akashic Records: Your Most Common Questions Answered

    Akashic Records: Your Most Common Questions Answered

    I get questions about the Akashic Records almost daily, from listeners of this podcast, students, and clients. In this bonus episode of Inner Work, I address many of these common questions to clear up confusion and give you a deeper insight into the Records.
    Some of these questions include:
    Do you have to be physically still (sitting or lying down) to open the Akashic Records? Who determines how long you can stay inside the Records? What happens if you forget to close your Akashic Records after opening them? Do you need to eat a specific diet to be able to connect to the Records? And MORE!
    Here are some options to deepen your Akashic Records knowledge and healing with me:
    Guided Healing Journey into the Akashic Records
    Akashic Records Level 1 Training
    Akashic Records Certification Program

Incredible

Every episode of this podcast is incredible. I find so many nuggets of gold every time I listen, even if I pick something that doesn’t seem like it applies to me. There is so much deep wisdom here. I even find myself re-listening to episodes and finding new information. If you found this podcast, it’s no accident. Give any episode a listen and you will learn something meaningful.

Graditude

I have been listening for several weeks now and I’ve learned and am learning so much. I am thankful and grateful that I’ve found this podcast, I love the energy and the humility that comes from a person with great knowledge on the things that aren't commonly spoken about. Thank you.

A gift to humanity

Perhaps it’s the reverent vibration that I feel when listening to Josephine, but I feel like I am listening to a good friend who is supporting me on my journey.
I treasure the absence of ads which gives the podcast the low key feel of being with a counselor face to face.
I have listened or tried to listen to many other podcasts of this genre and I find many to be loud and “about the narrator “ as opposed to the narrative.
