120: Celebrating the Gift of Choice and Living From Your Values

Have you ever stopped to consider how the choices you make today are shaping your life's journey? In this exploration of living a value-driven life, we delve into the profound role that choice plays in our personal evolution and consciousness. Join me as we reflect on how our past influences our values and discuss the importance of making choices from the soul level.

Realizing the absence of choice during my childhood inspired me to consciously offer my children the freedom to make their own decisions. It was a deliberate, albeit challenging, decision to empower them to embrace choice. This shift demanded that I redefine boundaries and learn alongside them, acknowledging the intrinsic link between empowerment and choice.

One of the most enlightening teachings comes from Gary Zov's "The Seat of the Soul," where choice is described as the driving force behind our evolution. This notion—that each decision we make embodies an intention—challenges us to align our actions with our true selves. It's about nurturing the soul's whisper over the ego's clamor.

As we navigate life, each choice presents an opportunity to transcend conditioned behaviors and foster a deeper understanding of our authentic selves. This journey of expanding consciousness is a shared endeavor that unites us all. Together, we can nurture a community where every individual's growth is integral to our collective ascension.

When we view our decisions through the lens of our soul's purpose, we unlock a deeper understanding of our potential and journey. Let's embrace the innumerable possibilities available to us, making choices that reflect our true selves and contribute to a more interconnected, conscious world.

About the Podcast

Mystical Sisterhood
Mystical Sisterhood is a celebration of women interested in connection to themselves, community, and the Universe. If you are a woman seeking conscious conversations on modern spirituality, understanding your soul’s journey, contemplating new directions in life, and mystical practices, you are in the right place!

The weekly podcast is hosted by Maureen Spielman, a Transformational Life Coach, trained in the Art and Practice of Spiritual Psychology, as well as Integrative Wellness and Conscious Parenting.

Maureen boldly invites the questions we only feel safe enough to ask in the community of other curious women ready to shift the current paradigm and soar. These curated conversations marry what we think of as our mainstream lives with the mystical.

Each episode infuses everyday women with the strength and clarity to rise above the self-limiting beliefs we have all heard on repeat in our heads so we can step into the limitless possibilities for shining and thriving in this lifetime.

Through interviews with healers, intuitives, and other courageous women doing the work of developing our inner lives, Maureen explores how to leave the lack dance behind, reclaim our worthiness, honor our intuition, and let the light in so we can more clearly see the light in others (and ourselves).

If you want to join this global movement of healers and seekers creating a new paradigm convened by an authentic woman who embodies the transformation practices she promotes, subscribe and listen to the Mystical Sisterhood podcast today.
