Empowering Chats with Susan Burrell

Radical Innovation

EP #289 - Radical Innovation - A Solo Show with your Host, Susan Burrell

This month’s theme is Innovation, which means to introduce something new / make changes in something established.

Through the chaos of what is occurring in the world around us I believe we are being introduced to something new. We are being asked to listen to what else is out there and we are being challenged by what has been established.

I believe this is all happening for a reason. We need to pay attention because through this heightened awareness we are being called to align to a higher frequency.

So ask you, where are you holding resistance? Perhaps in your body? Perhaps you are blocking energy that needs to be released and perhaps it is in relation to something you are resisting?

Are you being asked from within, from your higher self to innovate or create a new way of managing your life? Perhaps your problems, or responsibilities or the way you view what is occurring around you needs to shift.

Consider introducing something new. For several years now I have been using oracle cards as a way of tapping into my intuition. And the cards I use are called Sacred Rebel Cards by Alana Fairchild. If you’ve never worked with oracle cards, I strongly recommend this deck.

Consider this. You are your own authority. You can lean into your own inner wisdom. If you find you are asking others for their opinion, or seeking answers outside of yourself then maybe, just maybe it is time to shift to your own radical innovative self and lean into your own way of being.

I am personally choosing to accept the shock of the new. I am stepping into a new journey, a new path of being healthier, happier and experiencing more freedom. Where in your life can you innovate? Shift? Change? Grow?

Ask and see what happens. Thank you for listening.

Empowered & Reckless Love

Ep #288 - Empowered & Reckless Love - A Re-airing of a solo show from October of 2021 with your host Susan Burrell

I was recently perusing my library of podcasts and exploring some of my past shows and I came across this one, which is entitled, "Empowered & Reckless Love."  Much of what I share in this podcast still holds true today. Perhaps even more so. I feel this message is timeless and many years from now it will still hold true for me, and perhaps for you too.

In this chat I talk about loving yourself and going deep into the well of your being to accept yourself exactly as you are.

This show first aired in October of 2021.  

In this solo episode of Empowering Chats entitled, Empowered and Reckless Love, I question what it means to have low esteem and how we can find our way to empowerment by recklessly exploring the love we carry inside of ourselves. I think it’s about emptying out all the love we carry inside so that we can be filled again with love. While preparing for this episode I leaned into the Rumi poem, “Love is Reckless, Not Reason.”  And my book Live An Empowered Life, a 30-Day Journey, can be a good resource to help you fill your well of goodness with that empowered and reckless love.

 

The Rumi Poem – Love is Reckless Not Reason

Reason seeks profit. 

Love comes on strong, consuming herself, unabashed. 

Yet in the midst of suffering, 

Love proceeds like a millstone, 

Hard surfaced and straight forward. 

Having dies to self-interest,

she risks everything and asks for nothing.

Love gambles away every gift God bestows.

What is Your Soul Contract?

Ep# 287 - What is Your Soul Contract? An Interview with Akashic Records Reader and Mentor Nimesh Radia.

 

We are sitting in an extraordinary place in time and history. There is so much information flooding the planet.

My guest for this episode of Empowering Chats is Nimesh Radia. He is a seasoned spiritual coach and mentor dedicated to helping people unlock their true potential and live a purposeful life. He does this by using the Akashic Records to gain insight into your personal journey.

We had a fascinating and enlightening conversation. So, what are the Akashic Records? It is a record of everything your soul has been through. Past life, present life, future life. And according to Nimish we all have access to these records.

Nimesh is a trained Akashic Record Reader with over 25 years of mentoring experience. He channels messages that are specific to an individual and these messages come through the Akashic Records and an individual’s spirit guides. 

It is clear that what comes through with Nimesh as your guide is what needs to be heard at that moment in your life. Nimesh is the vessel – he is not there to filter the message, simply to deliver it. And many are not ready to hear what comes through. He informs his clients that it takes work to become aware of that which no longer serves us and work to learn how to release it and allow our light to shine.

For those that are ready to step into this journey it can be transformative and help you to connect to your innate gifts and purpose. Unlocking your fullest potential.

A Most Extraordinary Life

Ep #286 - A Most Extraordinary Life. An Interview with author and energy healer, Liliane Fortna.

I am so honored and thrilled to welcome Liliane Fortna to Empowering Chats. Liliane is the author of the book, Winks from Above, Opening up to Signs and Synchronicities to Receive Little Miracles Each Day.

We jumped right into this chat exploring where the signs and synchronicities come from. Liliane says they are all around us. Always. Which I believe too. However even though the signs are there we often don’t see them.

Why? Because as Liliane puts it, we aren’t always paying attention or we become blocked. It’s about accessing our intuition and seeing beyond the veil, where the archangels reside, where our ancestors reside and where our spirit guides reside.

As humans I believe we always want to feel safe. And in seeking that safety we find ways to block ourselves from that which brings on fear or the unknown. According to Liliane, by doing that we make the veil thicker and bigger to the point that we cannot see those little miracles occurring daily in our lives. She calls these miracles winks from above, hence the name of her book.

She feels we all have the ability to see beyond the veil, and in her book, she talks about ways we can get that insight back. It’s about tapping into our childlike wonder about the world and all the magic it has to offer. As children we possessed that ability but as we get older and conditioned by society, our family and our peers we tend to lose it.  But it’s never really gone. We still possess it but it’s been blocked or buried.

In her book, Liliane offers readers insights and practical tools to help them navigate life’s challenges with grace and wisdom.

Liliane Fortna is an award-winning author, an energy healer and a spiritual teacher. She is grounded in the transformational work that she does and uses her knowledge and wisdom to impact the lives of those around her in a positive way.

Time to Tune Up & Tune In

Ep. #285 - Time to Tune Up & Tune In - A Solo Show with Susan Burrell

Tenacity is the theme for the month of August. There are many words to define what tenacity means. Including, courage, persistence, determination, grit and so many more.

In this solo episode I explore what tenacity means for me personally and globally for all of us. I believe we are all being called to experience and feel Tenacity on a deep, deep level.

The month of August promises to be energetically raucous as we enter into a new moon cycle. August will also host Mercury in Retrograde for most of the month. And we are also in the Lion’s Gate Portal which is a very powerful time of vibrational alignment.

I believe we are all aligning to a higher frequency of Love. It is time for us to listen deeply to each other, to our inner authority and to tune up and tune in to all that is occurring within our own hearts.

Our brilliance, our light and our love, is lifting all of humanity to a higher frequency.

It is time to listen to the wisdom of your heart and lead with that wisdom.

The Magic of a Witchpreneur

Ep- #284 - The Magic of a Witchpreneur - An Interview with Julie Foucht.

I am delighted and honored to welcome Julie Foucht to Empowering Chats. Julie calls herself a Witchpreneur and hosts a podcast called, The Art of Feminine Business.

In 2000, Julie Foucht left a 20-year abusive relationship feeling lost and broken. As a partner in her husband’s construction company, she left both her marriage and her income. She had stayed because she believed she couldn’t make enough money to support her 4 children, but was determined to find a way to create the life she dreamed of.

She dove into personal development and started her study of the Energy of Money.

She quickly realized that her purpose on the planet was to get more money in the hands of more women.

Her business has been through many irrorations in the last 20 plus years. It started as: Life Tools Training, then morphed to Kick-Ass Biz Coaching and finally landed on The Art of Feminine Marketing and the Art of Feminine Business.

In this realm she is more than a life coach she is a game-changer.

Julie and her team work with women using the language of honoring the divine feminine and honoring the higher way of doing things. She encourages women to tap into their magic and use the unique tools and gifts they carry.

And as part of that magic, she has been offering her Feminine Business Magic Summer Lecture Series for the last couple of years. This year’s Magic Summer Series is set for August 12-16. And I am happy to share that I will be a featured speaker, with a team of other experts, as part of this series.

Transcend into Your Light

Ep#283 – Transcend into Your Light - A Solo Show with Susan Burrell

This episode of Empowering Chats with Susan Burrell is a rebroadcast of a solo show that ran in September of 2023. And I have chosen to re-air to illuminate once again the message of living a life of creative and imagined possibilities and leading with light.  With all of the fear and uncertainty coming at us I think it’s important to remind ourselves of all the love and light that exists despite what appears on the surface.

And so, join me in discovering how you can lead with your light and how your imagination and creativity can help you achieve your potential.

I open up this episode by asking the following questions:

• What does it mean to imagine all possibilities for our lives?
• Can we resolve difficulties using our imagination? 

I explore what it means to bring Imagination into our daily lives. And all the possibilities available to us when we step into imagining all that we can be. Are you ready to step into all that you can be? And imagine all the possibilities? 

Allow me to share with you how you can imagine all possibilities. I believe it is about releasing and embracing all that you are. Release and share your special gifts with the universe and then embrace all that comes back to you. Do this and you may be surprised at what shows up for you.

I believe there are different ways of being in the world. And it is high time we trust ourselves and follow the divine spark of life that we all carry within.

So let's explore together a new way to access our imagination so that we can resolve conflicts and lead from a place of collaboration, love and compassion.

And if you are ready to be more and step into developing your gifts as a Light Leader, I invite you to check out my upcoming workshop, Are You a Light Leader? The Deeper Journey. Registration closes on July 28^th.

What Is Your Soul Blueprint?

Ep #282 - What Is Your Soul Blueprint? An interview with author, Kris Franken

I am thrilled to welcome my stellar guest, Kris Franken to Empowering Chats. She is an author, mentor and healer. Her latest book is entitled, Wildhearted Purpose. Embrace Your Unique Calling and the Unmapped Path of Authenticity.

This interview first aired on Empowering Chats in May of 2023. And fits in well with this month’s theme, Elevate. In fact, chapter one of Kris’s book opens with the following quote:  

“It is in our nature as humans to seek happiness and pleasure in our lives. When this is healthy and balanced these inner states are clear indicators that we’re connected to our truth, but without meaning we lose our balance and sense of purpose, as you initiate your vision, meaning will bring depth into the picture as pleasure brings elevation.”

According to Kris, balance and meaning brings us into our truth and can help elevate us to new heights . This is a powerful statement and a theme that flows throughout Kris’s book, Wildhearted Purpose.

The idea for this book and its title came to Kris years ago. When it first appeared for her, she found it glowing bright and it spoke to her. So much so that years later it became the title for this book. She finds that it’s connected to the heart and it expresses everything about what she does. When she began mentoring people, she encouraged people to go into their own wilderness and discover their wildness.

She gave herself permission to be wild and messy.

For Kris “wild-ing” is living in the wildness of nature. It’s finding the balance. Often, she feels we take the word “meaning” as feeling too strong and dark. Kris feels it is really about finding love and playfulness, and balancing the giving and the receiving. It’s tricky but doable to find your "meaning" in your life.

The book was written as a permission slip to everyone to do exactly what your heart wants to do. And that was her intention in writing this book.

As a rebel, Kris does not follow a map. She resists structure and people or society telling her what she “should” do. And in her quest for balance, she found her wild and playful side and follows her own drumbeat. And thus encourages her readers, her audience to do the same.

Messages of Hope

Ep#281 - Messages of Hope, an interview with co-interviewer, John Thomas about the book, Channeled Messages of Hope.

My guest for this episode of Empowering Chats, is John Thomas. He is part of  collective that has written a book called, Channeled Messages of Hope. This book was channeled by souls whom when embodied on this earth did some amazing work.  And now their messages of hope are being channeled from the unseen side and shared in this book.

I am honored to welcome John Thomas. In this chat, John shares how Channeled Messages of Hope came to be. His wife Caroline, was called to work with Sam Clemens, a channeler. He and Caroline have been friends for a long time. Caroline realized she could be the interviewer of the channeled souls that were coming through Sam. Together they figured out they could channel the high vibrational messages.

And so, a plan was made to channel the souls of those that have crossed over to deliver messages of hope to earth about climate change and environmental policies. But is it more than that. This book also delivers messages of hope about gun violence, mental illness and so much of what is occurring on planet earth. These messages of hope are here to help humanity understand and deal with the crisis occurring on Mother Earth.

There is a powerful quote that appears in the book that reads as follows, “The state of the planet is a reflection of how we are treating each other. The state of the planet is not in accordance with peace at this time because the people are not in accordance with peace at this time. The lesson is that we must look at our reflection in the mirror and we must see that we are doing this to ourselves. The planet is reflecting what we are doing because we are not treating each other with equality and kindness and we are not living in peace and the planet is reflecting this.” This quote came through from Mahatma Gandhi and was channeled as one of the many messages that make up this book. The message is profound and I believe it inspires us all to follow a higher plan to heal each other and the planet.

Reaching Toward Higher Wisdom

Ep#280 - Reaching Toward Your Higher Wisdom. An interview with author, channeler and spiritual growth counselor, Caroline Oceana Ryan

Personal note to all of the listeners of Empowering Chats: This episode will elevate you to a new way of seeing and perhaps living your life.  I know I have been elevated through this conversation with my guest, Caroline Oceana Ryan. Caroline is an author, a channeler and an Ascension Teacher. She speaks truth to me and I think she will speak truth to many of you as well.

According to Caroline, we are entering into a whole new field of possibilities and potential, and it all has to do with our predominant vibration. And how we chose to live with our personal vibration.

We are being forced to look inward, to wake up to what is showing up in our lives. Many of us are being challenged to change or shift the way we have been living. And sometimes it feels like the overwhelming push to negative response has increased.

Many of us are also experiencing the detoxing of the body which can illuminate a transition occurring. This is often a sign of the letting go of old toxicity and our body releasing what no longer serves us.  This is part of the move from 3D living to 5D living.  It is important during this time of transition to give yourself time to rest.

Caroline and I also talked about how much of our lives is based on our predominant vibration. This is important to know because how we choose to live in our predominant vibration can dictate how our life unfolds. Do we feel balanced in our vibration? Are we allowing too much of the negative vibration that exists in our world to bleed into our space? Quiet meditation can help us get in touch with our inner voice and our inner truth.  Taking 2 or 3 minutes to breathe and vibrate to a higher level can help. Inner-reflection is also encouraged.

Infuse your thinking with love as you reach toward your highest potential and higher wisdom. It all comes down to the highest vibration of love and acceptance. With love in your life all the good will ripple out to humanity.
