Lighthouses Don't Apologize for Shining

Have you ever felt like you're carrying a spiritual secret too fragile to share? That nudge from your guides, that dream that felt more real than waking life, or that knowing that defies logical explanation?

This episode dives deep into the courage it takes to embrace and express our spiritual truths in a world that often demands evidence for the ineffable. As empaths and sensitives, we frequently experience energetic shifts that leave us questioning our stability—those moments when the Schumann resonance spikes and suddenly everything feels off-kilter. You're not crazy; you're connected.

I share a powerful personal story about releasing decades-old resentment and the shocking physical sensation that followed—literally losing my balance as that emotional weight lifted. This profound experience highlights why making space within ourselves is crucial for spiritual growth. Our guides are constantly trying to bring forward more of our divine gifts, but they can't enter rooms already cluttered with outdated energies and limiting beliefs.

Through practical techniques like automatic writing, candlelit reflection, and direct communication with your spirit team, you can identify what's ready to be released. These aren't just woo-woo practices—they're powerful tools for psychological and energetic clearing that create space for your authentic spiritual expression to emerge.

Remember: you are a vessel of divine light. Your spiritual experiences aren't random or imaginary—they're sacred communications between your soul and universal consciousness. When you find the courage to share these experiences, even in small ways, you become a lighthouse for others who may be silently questioning their own similar encounters.

Join our growing Sacred Soul Sisters community where all emotions are welcomed, all experiences honored, and your unique spiritual journey celebrated. Together, we can raise the collective vibration one authentic conversation at a time.

Speaker 1:

Now let's take a deep breath Together In through our nose and a long exhale out of our mouth. This is my intentions In a poem To set the tone for our sacred soul sister community. Here you go.

Thank you for sharing your soul with mine. Welcome to the Sacred Soul Sisters space, a home of love and sacred embrace. I'm so glad you're here. Hello, here we are, episode 10. Wow, that's awesome. So, yeah, I don't know about y'all, today is actually Earth Day. As I'm recording this, this is April 22nd 2025.

Speaker 1:

And I think we have to remind ourselves, especially those of us that are empaths, that when we feel like that, it's not necessarily us that's causing the feeling. It's not necessarily us that's causing the problems, so to speak, or the feeling of frustration, or feeling of anxiety, or feeling of stuck energy, or feeling of happiness. I mean, it's like this just weird roller coaster that it's felt like lately. There's a lady that I follow on Instagram. Her name or her handle is consciously Erin, and she is wonderful. She talks about the Schumann resonance and how it shows, like these energy spikes that we get, and I feel like the more, the further you get on your spiritual path and the more empathic you are, you feel this on such a high level. So so just know that you're not crazy. I feel like is the best way to say that I feel like. I have to remind myself so often that I'm not crazy, because I feel crazy when the energies are all over the place and I'm like what is going on? What is my problem? Then I start to get in this judging stuff, so I just want to remind you of that.

Speaker 1:

The other thing that has come up recently and I've talked to a couple people about it and is this feeling of you know we talked about being seen and things like that but this feeling of being able to speak about spiritual topics or speak about things that get us excited or different experiences that we've had and and trying not to feel judged or concerned, always about you know, what are other people going to think? You know, are they going to be whispering behind my back? Are they going to be saying to my face that you know, oh, you're crazy, or or you're going to hell, or you're, you know, whatever they come up with, sometimes in our mind we make it bigger than it will actually end up being any type of confrontation that we do get. So I just want to let you know, with those experiences, with those thoughts, that you're not alone. So many of us have had profound experiences where, you know, we've had a whisper from spirit, we've had a sign from an angel, we've had a knowing in our heart or a dream that felt so much more than just a dream. You know why? Because it was. You know, perhaps you had a visitation, perhaps you did some astral traveling.

Speaker 1:

There's so many different things that can happen, but here in these moments, while you get to disconnect a little from the 3D world and embrace this sacred space, you don't have to hide, you don't have to hide your light. I want you to know that all the experiences that you've had are valid. I want you to know that your spiritual gifts are real and your connection with the divine is deeply personal and deeply sacred, and it's not up to anyone else to judge that. Whether we've received I'm sorry whether you've received messages from your guides, felt that loving presence of angels, or simply sense that there's so much more to the world than meets the eye, I want to remind you that you're safe now. You're safe to speak your truth and, honestly, I think that's what's causing so many of these odd energetic changes or feelings, or stirring up so much as we transition more into the 5D.

Speaker 1:

You know we are starting to be called more and more to release so much, and the reason for that is so we can embrace and we can envelope so much more information, so much more vibration, so much more of remembrance of our, our deep spiritual gifts as they're, they're trying to come to the surface, but I feel like what's happening is they try to come in and they're like, okay, okay, we're, we're ready, we're ready to remind her of who she is or who he is. And then they're like, oh crap, there's not enough room in here to come in here, because, oh gosh, well, there's that sitting over there that's been hanging on since she was like five and that's really started to take up a really big area. And there's this over here and, oh gosh, there's all this stuck energy that you know that doesn't serve them anymore. Why is that in here, come on. And then they kind of give us these little sometimes they don't feel little, but these little pokes and hey, hey, hey, you know I'm here, like I'm just, I'm just here to remind you, like, come on, we can release this stuff. It doesn't feel good because it's sometimes it doesn't feel good, I should say because it's, you know, it's sort of like a brief encounter with something that you know we thought maybe we were over or we thought that we pushed far enough away that it would just magically disappear. But that's the problem with emotions, right, and traumas and things like that is as much as we hope that if we ignore them they disappear, they just don't. Unless we release universe, we ask our guides, we walk through it with them. We say we surrender, we say we are ready to release this. We ask for our spirit teams help in this. We ask assistance in the process of knowing we are safe to release this. We no longer have to feel this, we no longer have to carry this in order for even more love and light to come into you. So I just want to let you know that, while things feel scary sometimes because I get it, especially the releasing part I'm not sure why it is sometimes. Well, I guess it's because we get so used to carrying them.

Speaker 1:

You know, I did a forgiveness thing a while back, gosh, several years ago, on something that I had been holding on to someone. Really, I guess it was definitely in my younger years, but it had affected me for way longer, way longer than it should have, and I finally just said out loud, you know what I'm ready to release you and every emotion I have around you. I'm ready. I thank you for the experiences. I am the person I am because of those experiences. So I do thank you and I I wish you well, but I've realized I have to let you go. I have to release any resentment, I have to release any anger, any frustration, any sadness, any.

Speaker 1:

I mean this had really compounded uh, this anyway, that's a whole nother story, but anyway, I remember I was standing when I did this, okay, and I took a deep breath after I finally, like, accepted and set that intention I'm releasing and, you guys, I felt like two thirds of my body almost maybe one third, I don't know it was. It was a big chunk of my body had been removed, to the point that I couldn't stand up straight, like I had to lean into a counter next to me because I honestly could not stand up straight. I was like, oh my gosh, was like, oh my gosh, I can feel how much this removed from my body. And I know I've talked about before, but when we hang on to stuff like that and it gets that big, it can't do anything but start to breed disease or some other horrible manifestation. I mean, it's, it's, it's crazy, anyway. So luckily, I knew I needed to call in my angels at that time and ask them to fill that space and heal that space and fill it with healing, loving energy. Because when you do that, when you remove something that large, it's really kind of tricky. I would have continued to feel very off balance had I not done something about that, had I not returned my healing to that. I not returned my healing to that right.

Speaker 1:

So I just urge you to consider making a conscious effort of talking with your spirit team about what is it I need to release. You can do automatic writing with that. Sometimes that helps a lot too, especially if our minds are super busy and it's so hard to shut it down enough to think through our heart and to think through our soul and our higher self. So that's what I'll do. Sometimes you can light a candle, just get a notebook or a piece of paper and a pen or a pencil or whichever or whichever, and just kind of start out at the top.

Speaker 1:

You know, stare at the candle for a few minutes and kind of start out at the top and say you know, hey, spirit team, I call you in now. That is something I want to remind people about too. You know their sense of time over there is. I don't even know if they have one. To be honest, it's way different than it is here. So I always make sure to tell them now. Otherwise, when I'm calling them in or I'm asking them to help with something, it's not that they're not listening, but they're like, oh, okay, and I feel like like one minute here is like I don't know, 50 days there, like it's very bizarre. So, anyway, just make sure you ask.

Speaker 1:

You say now, when you ask them, so you're writing down on this piece of paper and you say spirit team, I'm feeling uncomfortable, I'm feeling anxious, I'm whatever it is you're feeling. I'm feeling like something is off balance. I'm feeling like maybe you're trying to let me know that you're ready for me to release something, because you have more for me, because I have amazing things that are aligned with me. I have amazing things that are manifesting for me, but they don't have room to get here right now and I'm just asking you right now to come in and help me. What is it I can release right now? What is it I can surrender and hand over to you and then call you in to help heal that area where it was? What is it? And just kind of start doodling. Even if you don't like have something come to you right away, you can draw a little whatever you know, just kind of go with the flow, start writing something like I have no idea what I'm going to say. This is so weird, I can't believe I'm doing this. Supposedly something's going to come out of this. Justine has said if I kept writing, whatever you want to do, but something will start to come. It may take a couple tries to get this out, but something will come, and then you can start to release things, and we got a lot to release. I think humans for quite some time have been really holding on to things with a pretty tight grip, so we've got plenty to release, plenty out there.

Speaker 1:

So you know you are a vessel of divine light, right? I just want to remind you of that. You were created by the divine right, which makes you divine, and I understand that sharing your spiritual insights or your spiritual thoughts or your spiritual directions on things can feel vulnerable, and maybe you've been dismissed in the past or told it's just your imagination, you're just I don't. Okay, that's cute, that's a cute story, but sure, uh-huh, uh-huh, you know. And maybe you've just stayed completely silent because you've been so concerned about being judged or misunderstood. Maybe you've wondered why am I or who am I to receive these messages? Who am I really to be comfortable with being guided? Or who am I to say, oh well, I feel like this or I think like this. Okay, so that's where this comes in about. You are a vessel of divine light. That's why, like you were created by the divine, you were created for a purpose. You were never meant to carry your connection in silence. You're meant to live it out loud in your words, your actions, your energy, your truth, especially in your interactions there.

Speaker 1:

You know I talk about sometimes how weird things are happening, like the more I go on this spiritual journey, and you know, it's sort of like and I may have mentioned this before, but you kind of start to see other people at different places, right, and you get this little like light switch and you're like, oh, you know what? I think she might be kind of like me, or, oh, I think he might be on the spiritual path too. Hmm, and it's so bizarre. It's just like these random pokes of different things. And then there'll be times where spirit just continues on with it and they're like, yeah, they are, I need you to give them a business card, or hey, I need you to go over there and tell them that you do sessions in person and in Zoom and you also coach people through their spiritual process and all of those kinds of things. And they can go right to your website and they can book an appointment with you. And hey, listen, I really want you to do this. And I think I talked about the last episode that made me do it in a car dealership the other day when I was getting my oil change and I'm like, no, I'm not doing it here, I did because they always win. But anyway, as I continue with my reluctancy and you know I gotta be you would think I'm a huge frustration to them, but they're absolutely amazing and so patient, so that works out for both of us.

Speaker 1:

But I want you to know that your spiritual experiences, they're valid, they're powerful and they're needed. They're not just woo-woo or weird. They're sacred signs of your awakening. Your intuition is a language of love from your higher self and the divine. So your spirit team and your higher self right, and your story or your experience can help validate someone else's. That's something that spirit has really been bringing through to me so much. They're just repeatedly saying your intention, justina, is to bring love and light and empowerment and all of this right.

Speaker 1:

So if you have the chance to do that and to validate someone else's experience and to lift them up and to let them feel like they have a sense of community because of you telling your story, or you telling a message you're getting, or anything like that, then why wouldn't you do it? And my first response to that is well, of course I would do that if that would help somebody. And then spirit says okay, but you really argue a lot. And and then I reflect I'm like man, I really do argue a lot, but if I can keep shifting my focus, hopefully I will get it to where I don't have to keep shifting. It's just the norm that I can truly help someone else. Oh, that there would be no question about it. There would be no arguing about it. I would get out of my own way in my own head and my own fears of rejection or judgment or anything like that. So, as I'm trying to remind all of you of this, I'm reminding myself as well.

Speaker 1:

When you share your story, you give others the permission to remember their own, their own, your exact words may be the medicine someone else needs. You have the potential to become a lighthouse, a lighthouse for someone else, ps. I freaking love lighthouses. So if you live near a lighthouse or you know where one is, please feel free to email me that or DM me the picture. I love, love, love, love, love, love, love lighthouses. Oh my gosh, they just make my heart just burst in happiness. Sorry, that was a tangent, anyway, so let me repeat that, since I got off on that, sorry, your words may be the exact medicine someone else needs, right, Because you become a lighthouse for them. You become steady, warm, full of grace. You become steady, warm, full of grace.

Speaker 1:

This podcast that I do is so much more than a place to listen. It's a container of safety, it's a container of remembrance and permission, where it's okay to cry, it's okay to laugh, it's okay to question, it's okay to wonder oh my gosh, has Justina lost her damn mind? Like what is she talking about, by all means and it's okay to celebrate every single spiritual whisper you've ever received. Ps. On a side note, I do want to let you know there's some Zoom sessions that will be coming up Hopefully they'll be coming up before this episode drops to give us a sense of community, a place to come together to say hello and to know that you won't be judged by one milliminute of a second Milliminute. That's not even a word. One millisecond, oh my gosh. Okay, anyway, you get my point. But I want you to know all emotions are accepted here. All of you is accepted here. You, I want the authentic you, to be able to show up when you're listening to this podcast, to be able to be present on any of the Zoom sessions we do in the very near future. I want you to show up.

Speaker 1:

Who are you? What lights up your soul? What lights up your heart? And if you don't know, I get that too, because I have been through that, I have, yeah, I spent a lot of time going through that, having a hard time understanding because I'd put so many layers of crap over top of all of those things. That's another thing you can use automatic writing for who am I? You can start there.

Speaker 1:

What is it that lights up my soul? What is it that? When I think of moments where I was so full of joy or excited or laughing, or where was I, what was I doing, who were the people around me and not just who were the people around, like what were they like? What was their personality. What is it about them that created the space for me to fully be me and fully be accepted? Me to fully be me and fully be accepted Wow.

Speaker 1:

That definitely brings a moment of thinking of my grandma. She's definitely the first person that pops in my head when I think of those moments. Her sister actually passed away a couple days ago and it's the sister of hers that looks so much like her. As a matter of fact, my son would say, um, he would think it was grandma when we would see her after grandma passed away and it just broke my heart because he would just like light up and be like, and it just broke my heart because he would just like light up and be like what? Oh, it's grandma. How can it be grandma? And it was actually my great aunt, but she's passed away a couple of days ago and it's kind of brought up this triggering of of grandma. And I know she's still by me. Grandma talks to me all the time. We're tight, she's my OG, but there is definitely a difference between in spirit versus in the physical.

Speaker 1:

But I have those memories of how that feels right and I have some friends now that are so amazing and my family, where I can be me, I can be fully me. So it's not just one person or one experience that allows me to feel that excitement and that happiness and that feeling like I can be me and totally be accepted for who I am. But where are those moments for you, for you, and if you can figure out where they are, or if you don't have them, start seeking them out in different situations, which we've talked about before, looking into different places. And I'd love for you to join me, you know, on the Zooms that are coming up, you know, to gather sacred souls, to be able to have a safe place. I can't wait, I'm so excited.

Speaker 1:

We all need to have the sense of community and that's what our spirit teams want and I feel like they're all coming together, which I've told you before. I call all y'all spirit team and I call mine in every time we record an episode and to make sure that they're all here with us, supporting us, and of course they're supporting, they're always supporting us, whether I called them or not. But it just gives me a little extra feeling of community, a little extra reminder, and I ask all of your spirit teams to continue to whisper in your ear that you're not alone, to continue to whisper in your ear that you've got this, that you are valid. You are here for a reason and you are already, or in the process of are going to be, a lighthouse for somebody. If you're listening to this podcast because of who you are, you created a safe place, practice sharing in small ways. So how can you do that?

Speaker 1:

Well, whenever you get a message or you get a feeling or a nudge about the world, about another person, about you, about whether to pick the can of green beans that's, three green beans back or the one in the front, to write that down. You know, I know on my iPhone, like I've got the notes section and you could just write it down in there If you don't want anybody to see it. Write taxes on the top. Nobody wants to look at taxes. Anyway, and try, like encouraging yourself, to speak your truth to at least one trusted friend or another light worker, right, like trust, your instinct to, when you're around someone or or you're at a park or you're at a store like a Walmart or something which is what I feel like we have 9000 of around here anyway and you get that feeling like hmm, they might be just say hi. Just say hi and smile, and maybe that's the only thing that'll come out of it, but maybe you just improve their day too and you really improved yours, because you felt like you connected, which you did, because from one lightworker to the other, a connection always takes place, an energetic exchange, and then maybe that'll turn into a friendship.

Speaker 1:

Or, in one of my Zooms, let me know, say hey, I had an experience the other day that I'd like to share. I would love that, and everybody else there would love that too, and be able to support you. Try, in baby steps, to let yourself be seen too, even if your voice shakes, even if you're fidgety, and what I mean by that. So that could even look like when you're talking to a trusted friend, a friend you've been friends with for a long time, and you feel like, no matter what, that they're going to support you or be there for you, and you can simply start by asking questions like, hey, you know I was listening to this podcast the other day, yeah, throw me under the bus, whatever works. But and say, you know they were talking about like spiritual experiences and they felt like angels around them sometimes, or so like, what do you think about that and just kind of feel them out and then maybe tell them about an experience you've had. And you may feel like you're going to throw up. Before you do it, just breathe through it. You got this Because on the other side of that, so often is this response of like, oh my gosh, I had an experience kind of like that.

Speaker 1:

Or you know what A friend of mine was just telling me about something that happened to her, similar the other day, you know. And then again we're creating a sense of community, right. So I just want you to know that you're okay to be seen, you really, really, really are safe and really the biggest thing universe is asking of you and your spirit team is to be you, because you're light. Right is so needed, it's so needed in this world right now. So I've been, you know, a while back I had read Louise Hay I Can Heal my Life, I think is what it's called. Please get that book, if you don't have that book, and I would suggest reading it out of the book and I would suggest the audio book.

Speaker 1:

So affirmations I started doing after I read that book, right, and I did them for a while and it really did make a difference. And then I got. I don't know what my problem was, but I got cocky and all in my head and I was like, oh, this is stupid, it's not working. And I got in my little pissy pants mode. I'm sure y'all don't ever do that, but I'm just going to be real and I do, I do. I get in this pissy pants mode sometimes, I don't know, and anyway. But I've come back around to this affirmations thing. So I've been really trying to test myself to start saying more affirmations and so here's a couple. You can try and you can write them down, post them I don't know on your mirror or I think that's what she used to suggest or just somewhere where you're going to see it all of the time, right. So here's a couple.

Speaker 1:

I am divinely connected, guided and protected in all I do. I'm going to repeat that one one more time because I feel like we all need to hear it one more time I am divinely connected, guided and protected in all I do. Here's another the messages I receive from spirit are real, are sacred and meant for me. Here's a new one. It is safe for me to share my spiritual truth. It is safe for me to share my spiritual truth. Another I trust the wisdom of my intuition and my inner knowing. I trust the wisdom of my intuition and inner knowing, knowing. Another my spiritual experiences are valid, beautiful and powerful. My spiritual experiences are valid, beautiful and powerful. Here's another I am a clear and open channel for divine guidance. I am a clear and open channel for divine guidance. I am a clear and open channel for divine guidance. And here's the one I feel like is so important for today's message when I share my story, I inspire others to awaken their own light. When I share my story, I inspire others to awaken their own light.

Speaker 1:

I am able, by being me, to turn someone's light back on. Did you hear me? I am able, by being me, to turn someone's light back on. How does that translate? You are able, by being you, to turn someone's light back on. Okay, so we got this right. We, as a community, got this. I support you so much. I am lifting you up, I am sending you so much love and light and I am rooting for you, and I want you to know that we got this.

Speaker 1:

All is well, which is also something Louise Hay used to say all the time All is well, all is well, all is well. That's amazing. All right, I hope you guys have a beautiful day and I can't wait to talk to you next episode, and I can't wait to see you guys in a Zoom. All right, talk to you soon. Hey everyone, I wanted to take a quick second and say thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm so grateful for you.
