    "Codependency is one of the only relational blueprints we have been given relationally, and we're ready for a new template for love to dance in new ways." -Kylie McBeath It's not our fault we've been given this pattern, but it is a choice whether we continue to live it. In episode 44, Kylie McBeath shares her insight on some common roadblocks people encounter on their path towards self actualization. Coming home to self, codependency, and embodiment are a few topics discussed today. These core pillars contribute to Kylie's growth and current place of wisdom as she continues on her path.  Hopefully you can find a few pearls to take with you from her honesty and journey.  You may know Kylie as @beingisbeautiful on Instagram or her podcast, "The Journey Home" where shares a lot of her journey with us. Kylie is a mother, writer and soul-doula who supports women in breaking out of codependent patterns and remembering their soul's purpose. Kylie is on a mission to restore the feminine principle and make this world a harmonious, just and liberated place to call home.   Kylie is also the co-founder of digital wellness company & community, Zura Health, and founding expert at Felt formally known as Mine'd.

    37. Happy 2023! My Year of SOUL LOVE. Join My Soul Love CHALLENGE!

    What's your focus this year?  Mine is SOUL LOVE if you couldn't already tell from the title. :) Many of us start the New Year intending to improve our BODY.  We start a new workout program, diet, or eat differently.  Other years we intend to strengthen the MIND.  We improve our productivity habits, meditate, and focus our energy on improving the mind.   But how many years have you focused your energy on your SOUL?  Strengthening our sacred connection to the soul can be easily overshadowed by the promises of a beach body or greater productivity in our workday.  But we must not forget that we are a triad:  a body, mind, and soul. Let’s do it differently this year!  Let's honor our inner light in 2023.   If you’d like to join me in strengthening your connection to your SOUL, I invite you to join me in my SOUL LOVE challenge.   Learn more about SOUL LOVE and my SOUL LOVE CHALLENGE on the podcast and check out my Instagram for the visual and details.   Every day is a new opportunity to start fresh, and the buzz and excitement of a NEW YEAR gives us that extra little boost we may need to kick our butts in gear! EPISODE TIME STAMP: Two Soul Love Concepts (07:37) My Coming out of Hiding (12:19) Steps to Connect to your BODY & TRUTH (21:38) SOUL LOVE CHALLENGE (33:37) ENTER THE DRAWING!  (06:37) Podcast Links: The School of Higher Consciousness Website The School of Higher Consciousness Instagram And if you enjoy this episode, please share the episode with a friend or leave a positive review for the podcast!
