Sarah (01:31):
Thank you so much for having me on.

Guy (01:33):
You’re very welcome. I, um, I like, like speaking of air, I’ve had a podcast, this particular podcast for about four and a half years. And what I find as I get in front of more and more people, you know, with my own journey, uh, who know I have a podcast, they, they’re always, people bring things forward of you check this person out if you checked that person out, if you listened to their work. And that’s literally what happened about a week ago. Uh, I was running a workshop and a and a gentleman came up after and, and made a point of sharing your work. So you’re reaching someone out in a country town in Australia, and he’s, and then I started listening to some of your YouTube videos on the way back from the workshop and, uh, and then reached out the next day. So it’s, it’s amazing how these things can happen. And here we are talking. So I appreciate you coming on and everything that you’re doing.

Sarah (02:23):
Oh, thank you so much. Yeah, I really appreciate that. Um, I actually have, you know, quite a few clients from Australia and yeah, I plan on doing a live event there next year. So, yeah, it, to me, it’s not random, uh, beautiful. Me and Australia. Yeah, we get along <laugh>

Guy (02:43):
<laugh>. It’s a good spot. It’s a good spot. Um, my question to you is, which I start the show every time, is that if you were at an intimate dinner party right now and you sat next to a complete stranger and said, what do you do for a living, what would you say?

Sarah (03:03):
I bend light

Guy (03:05):
<laugh>. And what would the response be to that?

Sarah (03:12):
Oh, I don’t care. <laugh>. Uh, like, you don’t really, you Ben Light, are you, are you a welder?

Guy (03:21):
<laugh>, yeah. That’s more like a you’re welder of knowledge.

Sarah (03:24):
<laugh>. I would probably say something very, um, I would say Ben Light, to be completely honest with you, because I like getting a rise out of people. And I, I’m also like low key and anthropologist, so I like discovering how people will respond to being put off, you know, off keel. So, but yeah, after that I would say something along the lines of, um, I’m a healer.

Guy (04:01):
Perfect. Perfect. No, I, I, I, it’s curious because I ask that question every week and speak to many people like yourself and it, and it’s amazing what comes out or, or how to articulate these things as well. Um, but I’m finding more and more people are certainly open to it, um, once, once you start exploring. I’m curious to know your journey as well, Sarah. Honestly, I find in the, in the only, the week that I’ve discovered you and researching the podcast, I find you fascinating because you’re putting out, you know, incredible content. Uh, I feel, I feel the authenticity in what you do and what you present out there as well. But I also know there’s always a journey behind these, um, the, the content that, that reaches people, you know, from having done, you know, hundreds of podcasts as well. So, I, I wanna dive in there if that’s okay.

Sarah (04:51):
Yeah. My villain story. You wanna know my villain background story?

Guy (04:54):
Well, is it, yeah. Is there a villain in there as well? Or, you know, like

Sarah (04:57):
How I got these scars, <laugh> <laugh>. Yeah, absolutely.

Guy (05:02):
So where does this start? Like where, have you always been fascinated by this, this kind of work? Or is it something that you grew into? Was there religion behind it first? Like, I, I’m curious to know what, what was your trajectory?

Sarah (05:16):
I always had what you could call, like, inappropriate for my age thoughts. Like, when I was very young, I asked my mom to, you know, give me a stronger definition of heaven. And when she did, I did not sleep that night. I was so terrified. I’m a, people are happy to go there. Like, I literally could not sleep that night cuz it sounded like hell to me, <laugh> what, what we were supposed to look forward to gave me existential dread. And that never really went away. But on my journey, it has now integrated and obviously I don’t have the same affinity with those dimensions that she was explaining to me.

Guy (06:00):
Right.

Sarah (06:01):
So I’ve, I’ve always had a, like, I just came into this life really with no filter metal to metal when it came to me and infinity. And so I remember, you know, like I tried a lot to be like, like Christmas <laugh>, see o’clock. Like, I tried always with within all of my rights of passage to, to assimilate them, but I just never fit in. And that wasn’t a part of my design anyways. So anytime I even tried to fit in into anything, it was always just a massive redirection, massive rejection. Um, I’ve come in pretty much with a very, uh, there’s no room in my life path, this life. And that’s funny because I have a video specifically on purpose and talking about how with, when it comes to purpose, it’s abstract. It’s, it’s not as definitive as people are making it out to be and all that mm-hmm. <affirmative>.

Sarah (07:08):
And that’s because specifically doing so is going to relax the energy field so much and give that integration to a person’s energy field that they might feel are they’re starved for. And by doing so, that’s gonna allow a person to ease into wherever they’re at in their own journey. And then from there, start orienting and orienting so that it’s not this thing that is overwhelming and colossal, it’s this, um, well in this chapter of my life, this is my journey and this is my purpose within this chapter and so forth. But with me, <laugh>, it was never any degrees of movement really. My, my life path from the very beginning led me to where if I wanted to make a left, for instance, there, there was no ability to make a left <laugh>. There was only ever metal to metal intensity. And I think that that’s what, um, I have been able to really harness in my, in my teachings and in my videos. I think I’ve been able to really, um, be able to express that, but with a certain level of refinement.

Guy (08:29):
So were you then always clear on where you were going and what you were doing then? Is that what you’re saying? Ultimately?

Sarah (08:38):
No, never clarity <laugh>. Okay. Always just being prodded and maneuvered into a space where, like, bread crumbed into a space that I didn’t have a context for. Even so, even so early as to like five years ago before we were all experiencing, you know, the, the buzzword, uh, the collective meme of quarantine. I was being given that by my guides as, as very simple answer as to why just things wouldn’t work out for me. I’d look over there and go, they’re having fun, I wanna do that. I, I, I wanna have whatever quarantined. So I, I was always getting kind of like this, um, I guess now I’m getting the visual representation of, in hockey, when you’re put in the penalty box, it was in a penalty box, but it was essentially just, I’ve had a very specific purpose. And because of that niche, it’s such a niche category of synthesizing, being able to be a synthesizer of, of really, you know, like metaphysical forces.

Sarah (09:48):
Even that, um, studying the amount, the ability for the different avenues of, and teachings and, um, thought forms that I have gone down. There’s the, the niche ability has been what has also been very prominent in why, just a lot of the reasons I wanted to go in different directions never worked out. Um, and so that’s what I was given by my guides. It wasn’t like a punishment or penalty, but it was just kind of like, just sit here. You know, like we see a lot of videos sometimes about how to manifest and there’s nothing wrong with wanting to manifest and we do manifest, but sometimes if it’s going directly against like our intention for this life, if it like, like we can manifest all the time, but if it’s just strictly something that is not a part of the design that we had at the soul level to create for this life, then that’s going up against a losing battle.

Sarah (10:58):
And so I know all of this now. I didn’t have a context before. And so when it comes to manifesting, even what we’re manifesting has kind of like this, um, like is it for your highest good <laugh>? And if not, then the universe will create you, it will turn you into the version of yourself through life’s experiences, through the people places and things that then sculpt you into being that version of yourself where that would be beneficial for us. And so that’s how I look at my journey. It was a lot of what seemed like just chill here, just hang out, do what you’re doing, and then when you’re ready, then you can have those manifestations. And so for me, that was pretty much my life path. It’s, it, it’s, it’s riveting, it’s wild, but also at the same time, enormously boring because <laugh>, I, I’ve spent so much of my life specifically, um, with a such a thirst osis, you know,

Guy (12:02):
So the reason why, the reason why I ask, and I’m proud of you as well, cuz like, again, when I spoke off air, like I grew up in Wales, I, I didn’t have a religious background. I played rugby, I drank a lot of beer, beer. It was a very, um, three-dimensional, you know, existence in terms of who I was, how my identity was, and with the culture and everything around. And I, I lived a, a large part of my life with like this, this deeper knowing, this has to be something more that was very heart driven, but I had no evidence around me whatsoever in any other shape or form that there was something more. And that was my journey. And so, so, so for me, it was very black and white. When then moments started to happen, that just blew my mind going, huh, and why, this is why I’m going through these challenges.

Guy (12:53):
This is why I’m going through these difficulties. And as I come out, it’s actually, um, that pressure was allowing me to see the greatness within me that allowed me to start to express that more and more. So I’m always, that’s what, I guess I’m prodding now. Was there, was there parts of you where a lot of the, the, the things that you share on YouTube and the, the incredible videos and the information, but moments in your life where you’ve had to ha go in to have, I guess, more direct experiences that’s allowed you to embody the work more and more on a daily basis, if I making sense?

Sarah (13:28):
Oh, absolutely. Um, all, yeah. Being in that penalty box or that, you know mm-hmm. <affirmative> isolation has been nothing but direct experience. If anything, a lot of the ways I’m experiencing reality at this moment is due to the fact that I had had so much direct experience, meaning that going inward rev, you know, channeling is a great way to describe it. Um, having these perpetual revelations, all of that good stuff, and then really not doing much with it at the capacity that it could have. You know, I’ve always written articles, I’ve written for, uh, I’ve been a guest writer for years with Wake Up World, which is based in Australia. Okay. I love Wake up world. Um, but that’s not really like even close to the capacity of my potential, having that expressed. And so it’s definitely been a journey of balancing these two opposing forces within me, which is the enormous amount of extroverted energy that I’ve always had my whole life with this enormous amount introverted energy.

Sarah (14:54):
And I, I describe it in my, in my perception beautifully in one of my poems, in my last book of poetry, I called it, um, timid and vain, what a crazy mixture that is. And you know, it, it’s not, I don’t wanna paint a picture like I was like this enormously timid, riddled with neurosis person, but there’s such a level of introvertedness or even just empathic that has a lot of vanity or ego to it. And that’s what, you know, I, I let people know in my in-person events, or I let people, you know, clients whatever capacity, uh, to break people out of whatever neurosis they’re being binded by in that moment. Um, the strongest medicine is letting people know, like giving them a huge permission slip by saying you’re actually just being super egoic by being confined by your own mental limitations.

Guy (16:00):
Hmm. Yeah.

Sarah (16:03):
A person’s humbleness can be toxic.

Guy (16:11):
So when did you realize that you were channeling and started channeling? You mentioned that earlier.

Sarah (16:24):
I think because it’s always been there. This is a funny story. I had a good friend who was highly clairvoyant, super psychic, and she told me one time she was, uh, you’re very cognizant. I’m like, I am <laugh>. When you’re clear, cognizant, it’s this invisible gaslighting that you walk around your whole life with until somebody taps you on the shoulder and says, Hey, you’re psychic <laugh>. Because with the, with the other, with the other ones, you know, we have clairvoyance Clair, audience claircognizance and Clair Sentience with the other ones. They’re, they’re a lot more like profound. But when you just know things and you, and you’ve gone your whole life doing that, so it’s normal to you, you don’t think you, you don’t think it’s, because it’s also not set up the same way that other people channel. I’ve seen people ch start channeling, like initiate that in so many different ways. Some of them are super elaborate and dramatic, like in a cool way. And then some, you know, there, there’s always some way that people use to kind of like access that channel some sort of way of dialing in. I don’t have that and I don’t that. So because of that it was learning my own nature and then how to develop and hone invisible skills from there. Once I did, it was like a huge invisible barrier just completely dissolved in my life.

Guy (18:06):
Yeah. Beautiful. And, and how, I gotta ask you then, how do you, or did you, or do you continue to develop that? Because I’m sure a lot of people today might even feel that there’s these aspects of them without knowing that intuitive aspect or, or whatever sensory experience that they’re getting beyond the five senses. But then the, one of the biggest challenges is having the courage to lean in and start to develop that and trust it and actually live by those principles as well. Cuz then logic can tend to be thrown at the window.

Sarah (18:39):
Absolutely. So I’d say how to continue honing that is, by this gonna sound weird, but come com completely 100% treating the information you’re getting, like it’s a thousand percent real and could be proven by scientists if they put it under a microscope.

Guy (19:03):
Hmm.

Sarah (19:05):
And having that level, faith is such a fickle word, but having that level of confidence, having that level of confidence, I mean, don’t get me wrong, like that can be used in such a toxic manner. Like everyone can, there’s always that polarity when it comes to an energy expression. So being completely irresponsible and then being confident in that direction is, you know, absolutely toxic. But that’s why I am so concerned first and foremost with integrity, with whatever I’m doing. Integrity comes first. Because to me, even if, you know, I I’m receiving more of an audience, or if I’m receiving more abundance in all the different ways that abundance can show up, whatever’s going on, I go, hold on. I wanna make sure that I’m in integrity. And so that even allows me to be a stronger channel. So I would say integrity plus confidence.

Guy (20:11):
Beautiful. Beautiful answer. Thank you. Yeah, it’s a really great way of framing it, you know, cuz quite often we, we we go chasing these things without addressing the very things that we need to address or they keep us distracted from that, you know? Um, absolutely. I’m curious as well, um, there was a couple of things and I, I wanna lean into the heart a little bit more because one of the videos that I listened, um, to you when I was driving home was the Alchemy of the Heart. And I guess there, there’s two things that, that I wanna open the conversation up is why Alchemy? Why The Alchemist? Cause that’s the name of YouTube Travel, and then what is the alchemy of the heart and why is the heart such a, a, a powerful resource within us?

Sarah (20:55):
Great questions. So the first one, why the Alchemist Divine Intervention? That’s crazy. Everyone wants, okay, I don’t know if you are aware of this or if this is hip in Australia, but everyone wants to be the Alchemist here in this. It’s like, right. Um, the fact that I even got that. So why The Alchemist is because I have a very large following on Instagram. Okay. And that is my, that is my name. And that’s kind of like one of those things where it’s like, how’d you get the name The Alchemist <laugh>? That’s why I say it was divine intervention because how did I like, uh, I, all I can say is that’s why I am so concerned with integrity, because do you know how much people are sending me energy of you got the name The Alchemist <laugh>. It’s like I am com I am entirely aware of the fact that having the universe intervene and bestow my Instagram account with that name means that on my part, I acknowledge that that is a large responsibility and I will pay that back with integrity. So, um, so that’s why it’s because I got that name on Instagram and when I started my YouTube channel, I needed to keep the brand cohesive and also like, that’s dope. Anyways. So it wasn’t like, oh, I have to <laugh>.

Guy (22:29):
Yeah, no, that’s in Incre I never even thought of, didn’t even occur to me of that side of things as well. I, I actually remember reading Paul Kalos The Alchemist 20 years ago, and at the time, that book changed my life because I, uh, it allowed me to move to Australia and just surrender. And just lean in. Yeah, it was from that book, they gave the courage to do it, you know, so it’s, um, um, a word I guess that’s been very prominent in my life at certain, certain, uh, times. So then why the, so what, so what is alchemy then? How would you describe it?

Sarah (23:09):
Alchemy is the transmutation of a base metal or consciousness to its most pure and refined state. So alchemy has been depicted, I would start saying our spiritual roots of alchemy have started to return to us somewhere. I’d say young Carl Young was the one that started creating the psychosomatic terminology to bring alchemy back, which is funny because literally some materialist alchemists meaning like, they’re only concerned with the chemical aspect. The laboratory alchemy find that to be very, um, they don’t like that. Um, but yeah, I would say that though, alchemy, that was the original form of alchemy. It’s always been the art of ascension. It’s been spiritual transformation. And then from that point it reflects into the, the metallic kingdom. So it’s a top down art, it’s chemical, Hmm. Metal-based. But that’s, that’s the, that’s the lower expression of the higher expression, which is, this is all about what’s being prepared is the psyche for the ascension process. So to answer your question, alchemy is the art of ascension.

Guy (24:44):
And just to ensure that we cover every, everyone what is ascension then?

Sarah (24:50):
Yeah, ascension is the conscious participation in our own evolution because we’re either us sending or descending, meaning we’re either evolving or devolving, and we see that clear as day in our world. We have this huge, you know, chasm between people who are becoming conscious, are moving forward in that direction to the degree and rate that people are moving in the completely opposite direction. So, and, and don’t get me wrong, I would love for it to be like, we’re all in this together. I would love for everybody to move in the direction of consciousness because that would mean there would be less suffering in the world. But the truth of the matter, the thing that I can’t override reality is that people are just as much headed to the opposite end of that consciousness spectrum as people are headed towards the, you know, conscious end of that spectrum. And so with that, we have, um, really ascension being the choice to go with that process of expanding our consciousness and becoming more conscious, because that’s the evolutionary process. But when we go, Hey, I’m gonna participate in this, when we’re making that conscious decision, that whole storyline from that point on that plays out is called ascension.

Guy (26:20):
Hmm. And then I, I guess once you, you make that decision, that’s when everything begins to shift.

Sarah (26:28):
Yeah.

Guy (26:29):
How would you then, or what, I’d love to know your thoughts on it then, if, speaking of ascension and of I guess the expansion of consciousness, you know, in singular or collectively then what is the soul’s, uh, soul’s purpose? How would you, how would you then describe the soul and its purpose? I in that, because that, again, that is, um, I guess something that has you, you have many different interpretations, beliefs, and forms from around that.

Sarah (27:02):
The soul is our eternal nature. So I always like to call the soul the daredevil in our energy field. <laugh> the soul is the daredevil. Better yet the soul is Houdini. The soul’s like, you want me to chain myself all up and then throw me in the water and then I can’t breathe, and then you wanna see if I can get out of it. <laugh>, that’s the soul. So the soul’s the one going, and for my next trick, I will go into Australia and then <laugh>, you know, like go bring light into <laugh>, very dim aspects of that reality that needed. So the soul is a daredevil, and then the conscious mind is the one that can participate consciously, and the rider suffer <laugh> because the soul’s the one behind the wheel.

Guy (28:03):
I love the analogy then why, why is this such a dead devil? Like what does it get out of it? You know,

Sarah (28:12):
The soul’s like a, an celestial junkie, the soul gets out of it learning more about itself, but also it’s eternal. So when you’re eternal, you don’t have the same perception as when, you know, like when you’re eternal, it’s hard to cry about certain things because you won’t be able to experience grief, you won’t be able to experience that, you know, when a loved one dies. And so the soul gets out of it, the richest experiences ever because it gets to stop its own magic. Well, it creates through its magic, but it gets to stop its own perception so that it can play a character and have the richness of that spectrum of emotion and have that spectrum of perception and have that, you know mm-hmm. <affirmative>. Um, I was tripping out just the other day at the fact that, um, I got this insight that in a past life I was, um, like some sort of levitating eastern master, I started going, whoa. But I see why I would wanna be this person now from the US who like just, I, I wanted to do film at one point. Like I I, um, I just have a lot of experiences that are so different from some of the information I get. And I see how from my soul’s perspective, I’m like, I would love nothing more. It’s to have a completely different experience than something that I had in this or that. And so the soul gets out of it. Everything, the soul wins <laugh>.

Guy (30:08):
Yeah. You’ve triggered a couple of questions here. The first one is then with <laugh>, with the soul being a daredevil and wanting these experiences, was there a moment in your life then where you felt that you had to put yourself out there more, or nervous too, or was worried about it? You know, like, so, so that that that that conflict within ourselves? I know I certainly was when I, like I was telling you I saw my company and I’m like, I’m gonna do what, but there was this just huge pull that I couldn’t deny. And like you said, when done with integrity and moving forward, things just opened up in, in ways I kind of described. But it was terrifying at the same time.

Sarah (30:52):
Yeah. Remember how I was talking about how like even though I didn’t understand that I had a very, I walked the line in my path, I, I was mm-hmm. <affirmative>, um, the, the groups or the people or the information that I was always drawn to made it to where once I saw, you know, whether it was documentaries, whether whatever it was, once I got an external permission slip that people were sharing intense content, intense meaning fringe or even what we would consider conspiracy, I finally, that was soul medicine. Cuz I’ve always been intense, but I felt like I never got the mission. So imagine you’re just ready for something and everyone’s acting normal in front of you and you’re just like, okay, this, this, this is not matching up. You’ll start thinking you’re mentally ill, you’ll, you’ll start being depressed, you’ll start being anxious all because you’re a, you’re a race car ready to go.

Sarah (31:59):
And so once I started seeing in my external reality that there was something wrong with reality and that we’re in a matrix, I was, that was, that was very confirming and my warrior aspect instantly got activated. So with that instant activation, I started drawing very strict and strong lines in the sand. You know, being that person, you know, that person, if you’re at a family gathering or if you’re with a group of friends or if you’re start being that person really shoving reality down people’s throats. And so <laugh> having that level, uh, i I almost call that now like the practice grounds because continuously strengthening that threshold for conflict, really that’s what it was. I didn’t know I was doing it at the time. I was just super passionate. But now I know that even that served a massive purpose because now I have the effortlessness of being the channel.

Sarah (33:03):
I need to, I can say something and not have it come through and need to go through this filter and this filter and that all because I, you know, getting all of that conflict outta my system. Like I wanna go back in time and make all the people I fought with online pay me <laugh>. Cause they were getting so much of my energy and I’m now I’m like, I would not ever fight with. So like, but at that time it was just my warrior aspect was being exercised and that as aspect really needed to have its day have its done so that now, even if I’m just talking about rainbows, it doesn’t matter what I’m talking about, it’s not going through a bunch of filters.

Guy (33:50):
Yeah, no, it’s important. And I love, I love what you’re sharing because it’s so easy to put limitations upon ourselves to allow us to fit in, to be a certain way cuz we are worried about upsetting or, or how others are going to respond in these moments. And as you start to put yourself out there and more and more people, obviously it can feel, the perception could be feeling the the pressure is greater, you know, and, and how we take that on board, you know? So yeah, it’s an important point that you raise, which is great. So I, I wanna, I, I do wanna look back to the alchemy of the heart in a moment, but I, I just wanna stay in the soul for a sec. And that is then when you mentioned about the, the, you know, we, we get to have these experiences and we get to have these experiences o of grief. Like you used the example with that because, you know, as the eternal soul, when we are not having those direct experiences there, we’re we’re coming into physical form to have them, do you then feel like our destinies are then predetermined or is free will having a, um, a part in what is being done and said, how do you think it kind of plays out while we are here?

Sarah (35:10):
Destiny to me is the goal, destiny is not a promise. Perhaps my, you might see in some of my videos that I can take on a more harsher tone. It’s so that people understand that you have to earn your destiny destiny’s a potential. It’s kind of like if a writer wrote a bunch of different screenplays and there was one that was the best way that things could go.

Sarah (35:47):
But then you come in here and you have fate, which a lot of people think is destiny to me it’s not, that’s not how I was taught it and that’s not how I was. I resonate with it. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, you come here and you have fate and you have free will, you have a random variable, that’s what free will is, and you have a predetermined variable. That’s what fate is. And both of these forces are not opposed to each other. They’re used together and they’re used together in their highest potential. They’re used together to try to get you into your destiny in their lowest potential. You can become too passive or too forceful. And that’s why I see a lot of people do, they just go, everything’s faded. Everything is a free will as an illusion. The people who even came up with that, I don’t think people know where that came from, maybe a few, but the people who that thought form that free will is an illusion, came from a very materialism, a very scientific thought form.

Sarah (36:53):
And it was based off of the Big Bang. And they never pushed the refresh button. They never updated that because they updated the fact that they don’t believe in the Big Bang anymore. I don’t know if you’re familiar with that, but now they’re like, we, we don’t know anymore. We we’re thinking it’s not the Big bang. So all of their math would have to be off if their, if their first initial conditions are not, you know, in place. So, long story short, destiny is the script. It’s the movie of your life where you have the best outcome, where the whole story arc of the character comes to from the downward trajectory and then makes it to that hero’s journey, that hero’s story arc that’s destiny and fate and free will both do their damnedest to sculpt you into the person who will go claim their destiny. Does that make sense?

Guy (37:52):
Total sense. Yeah. Love it. That’s a great analogy. So then how do we stick to the script?

Sarah (38:01):
How do you align with the script where there’s the best outcome in a sea of

Guy (38:04):
Script? Correct? Yeah. Yeah.

Sarah (38:09):
I mean the funny part is I could, I could tell you, but it might cause a lot of pain because okay, like for instance, when I was learning, when I was in my second course for one of the, uh, for the very first energy healing modality that I did all about the quantum sphere, we did this very casual exercise in there where we align with the highest potential version of ourselves in this quantum exercise. So there’s a few different ways that we can stick to that storyline. Uh, I didn’t realize when I was doing that course that that’s what I was doing. So hire self was setting Sarah up to go push the right codes and keys to get that. Cause apparently I wasn’t, you know, apparently it wasn’t a strong enough potential at that time, but a way that somebody can do it, mind you, it’s not always gonna be a nice road if you wanna access your destiny and you’re not there.

Sarah (39:15):
And so for me, I didn’t realize how, even though I’ve been on a very strict course walking the line of knowledge that that free will aspect of, hey, I can start a YouTube channel. Hey, I can do this. Hey, I was not utilizing enough of my free will. So even though I was on a very, you know, like my, I was on my path of purpose, I wasn’t activating my free will on my path of purpose. And for that, when you start calling in your higher self to help you become your highest version, but if you’re not willing to take those action steps to help your higher self out with that, it could go completely south. I don’t know, it could go great. I I don’t wanna paint it all as super dangerous. All I’m saying is, is that to align with that original storyline, you can ask your higher self align, help me align with mm-hmm. <affirmative> my highest destiny. But I’m not saying depending on a person, depending on their unique path, depending on their sole contracts, depending on what they came in here to choose to experience, it doesn’t mean that that will get you there in the loveliest manner. And it did not for me, but I’m here <laugh>.

Guy (40:35):
Yeah, no, I, I hear you. I I I totally hear you. So then do you think this road, like how, how, how can I, do you think it has to be tough and ous and challenging? Because I, I ask so often here that when people lean into this work, oh, my life’s falling apart. It’s all so hard, everything’s just breaking down. Why does it have to be so difficult? And I guess my question to you is, does it or can it be a much more centered way, or do we have to go through, through these heroes journeys to get the message?

Sarah (41:20):
This is gonna sound awful, but it, it kind of has to be that way because the soul wanted it that way.

Sarah (41:28):
It’s kind of like, how can the butterfly become a butterfly without using its own enzymes to dissolve its matter into liquid in order to crystallize in a higher form? So those struggles are the enzymes being released from the caterpillar in its cocoon to dissolve itself? How intense is that? The ca the caterpillar is saying, I’m gonna dissolve myself. That’s like, this is no plug, but that’s like my first poetry book, how to set yourself on fire. That’s why I named it How to set yourself on fire. And that’s the soul going awesome myself on fire. So the question is, does it have to be arduous? And the answer is, it would need to be arduous in order to birth the version of ourselves that is, um, the butterfly. Because it’s through that struggle, through that arduous that that is molding us and shaping us into that final project or, and to not have those lessons and those experiences upon our life path.

Sarah (42:44):
There wa there’s no other way that we could cultivate the discernment to become that version of ourselves or cult cultivate, um, the, the integration that that would call for the consciousness. So then the question becomes to the degree of arduous, because there’s always gonna be struggle and strife, but then how much of that is because we are not going along with our conscious participation? That is where the free will comes into play. So there’s always gonna be trials and tribulations. Where our free will comes into play is how conscious, how much we’re utilizing those to either not repeat our cycles so that we’re not, you know, nec um, inflicting unnecessary suffering in our life or how, how to get the gold within the, the cave as gracefully as possible. There’s so many times where, um, I look back at a chapter of my life and I got mad at myself and I went, I wish you did that more gracefully. And so that’s just pointing me to where I can be more unconditionally loving, but that’s because I’m so aligned with my soul. Even that isn’t like, wow, that’s ego. You wish you did that better because that’s the soul’s perspective. The soul’s perspective can sometimes look a lot like it’s opposite. The soul’s perspective can be like, how much heat can I take without screaming <laugh>?

Guy (44:23):
Yeah, yeah. No. Okay. So then what would, what would you say to someone in this moment listening that is in that cocoon right now?

Sarah (44:43):
Take minerals <laugh>.

Guy (44:45):
Um, no, that’s a good look after the body. I, I couldn’t agree more.

Sarah (44:49):
Yeah, really, cuz that’ll determine a lot of trajectories of how, okay, so it’s vital to know that when you’re in that cocoon, you’re actually in a deep decompression. What’s happening is we’re decompressing our consciousness. We needed to compress our consciousness all the way down the densities. We needed to compress our consciousness into this reality. And then we decompress. And when we decompress, it’s really intense. And so that decompression of our consciousness is experienced as depression, as anxiety, as feeling stuck, as not having any motivation, as having paralyzed will. All of that is true. And yet those are the symptoms of a decompression knowing that might help the person start shifting their focus into, if I’m truly decompressing from an existential compression from an existential being in sleep or unconsciousness, then how can I utilize rest or play in ways that will help this process along?

Sarah (46:11):
For me, it was poetry. I never made the conscious connection that the thing that I did naturally my whole life. Like who has poetry notes in their phone? I never made that connection until I was so desperate for any reason to, to have, you know, life force, when you have dead will, you’ll pull anything, you’ll pull anything from the ether just to give you life. And it wasn’t until I was in that paralysis of will that I went, screw it, I’m gonna, I’m gonna, you know, self-publish a poetry book. So poetry is what gave me life, but it’s because that’s my version of play. So if people are able to understand that what they’re doing, <laugh> might not seem it, but it’s far more important than they might be able to conceive at that moment and then go, well how can I help this process in a, in a supportive way?

Sarah (47:11):
Find, find what gives you life, even find how to play so that you can integrate it better because that process is gonna be harder without what will allow that natural process to unfold. And that’s integrating. So it just becomes a question of how much time, if this cake needs to bake it, it, it’s in the oven, can I make it easier? Yeah. Can do this, this, and this to make it easier. The pressure of people needing to have their purpose figured out, needing to have this and this and this is the opposite of what’s gonna relax the energy field enough to decompress and therefore integrate. And who knows, maybe that very thing that the person uses to decompress or to play might end up being a part of their purpose.

Guy (48:09):
Yeah. Beautiful. Yeah. Isn’t that so the, again, it comes back to being in the moment, isn’t it? And surrendering and making sure you bring some joy, some fun in there, uh, like you say to play and also allowing things to, to move when they need to move or not force them, which is what we tend to do. We’re always striving it to be quicker, faster happens, we can just get out of it as opposed to being with it. That’s for sure. And I was, I was very guilty of that. Um, I gotta close this loop cuz I opened it like till half an hour ago and I’ll close that loop before we type the podcast and as the alchemy of the heart. Oh yeah, it’s been sitting with me. Why the heart and how would you define that and why is this such an important aspect of ourselves when leaning into this work?

Sarah (49:07):
So the heart is the occult anatomy of what, what’s really happening is, you know, how the heart is known as the prime generator in the body, even if it’s not seen anymore as a pump or a motor. It’s the main facilitator of that whole process in the body. Not even our lymphatic system has that. So knowing how key the physical anatomy of the heart is, is showing that the metaphysical corresponding nature of the heart is that it is the life, it’s how, it’s how we cr are created. And so how that shows up in the energy field is you could look at the heart like the, as the energy center. I’m not even talking at this point about the chakra, I’m talking about beyond the chakra. Uh, the heart as the energy center is the prime projector, it’s projecting this reality. We might think that that’s coming from the mind, but the, the heart is the projector of this reality. So when we’re like, how, how did, how do we even get in a 3d? Like how is this physical? Like it’s because we’re all emanating from the heart center to be in the third dimension.

Guy (50:39):
Hmm.

Sarah (50:41):
So the heart’s very important because the story arc that we have been on in this reality has been one where we’ve been experimenting with the lack of heart. So it’s almost like, let’s hide the truth, let’s hide the truth and see what we become by playing with this without this truth. And then let’s go, let’s reveal the truth when that story ARC’s coming to, it’s, it’s climax

Sarah (51:20):
And so the heart’s so important, it always was. But the reason why it’s so important in this age especially is because we’re understanding it not just to be unconditional love, but looking at unconditional love from even physics, looking at unconditional love as the unified field of consciousness. So the unified field of consciousness is expressing itself through the anatomy, the, the, the esoteric anatomy of the heart and then the physical representation of that is through how important our physical anatomy of the heart is. It’s central, you know, I don’t need to tell you, you a person can live without a gallbladder. They can’t live without a heart. But yeah, it’s uh, it’s unconditional love is not an emotion, it’s a force field. So unconditional love is why the heart is so important. And if we were to feel unconditional love because it’s not an emotion, what it would feel like is emptiness.

Guy (52:27):
Hmm.

Guy (52:29):
Yeah. Fascinating. I, um, I just found on my, my own journey that how disconnected from my, my heart in some respects, remember saying at the beginning I was so something in my heart. I knew there was something deeper, but I, I didn’t realize that it was actually a, a a guiding force and, and it was closed off for so long. And through that closing off, it was keeping me disconnected for, from something far greater that want that was ever present anyway, I just wasn’t allowing it to flow through freely. And once I, I understood about opening my heart, then it become, um, a much more, uh, I guess compass clarity that allowed me to continue to lean into this work. And that’s why I am, I’m, I’m very passionate about the heart just through experience more so than knowledge, if that makes sense. Yeah. And uh, I, I would certainly encourage people to delve into that more. And especially that video you did, the Alchemy of the Heart, I thought it was great by the way,

Sarah (53:36):
You know? Yeah. I will definitely be doing more about the heart. That’s my guidance, is very interested and focused on heart-centered consciousness.

Guy (53:49):
Beautiful. Beautiful. I, um, just to wrap it up, I’m aware of the time for myself as well. Um, I ask a question on to a couple, two questions. One, do you have any daily habits, rituals, or routines that you do? Or do you just kind of live the work or

Sarah (54:10):
Yeah.

Guy (54:11):
Do you have practices as well?

Sarah (54:13):
It’s funny cuz I’m a double Leo. I’m a Leo’s son and moon, so structure, ritual is something I love and yet oppresses me, so I go in cycles. Okay. I become very obsessed with things in cycles. And so what, how I s i I applaud anyone who is just, you know, I, I’ve had the same morning ritual or I’ve had the same, you know, thing for years. Like, I just applaud that. I, I could never, so for me at the moment, what I love doing in the morning is really just, um, watching, um, videos on astrology <laugh>. I know that that doesn’t sound too, too exciting, but I’m gonna cycle, I’m gonna spiral out of it. But right now I, I’m really interested in learning. Like, um, for instance, I just learned about a few months ago about the planet Vulcan, so that’s fun. Um, yeah, typically my whatever ritual comes into play will usu usually be something about expanding my base of knowledge since that’s what I’m really into. But yeah, I wish I could tell you yoga, I, I wanna say yoga <laugh>, but it’s not <laugh>.

Guy (55:40):
That’s perfectly fine by me, that’s for sure. My yoga’s not that great, I can assure you. But, uh, and um, last question is, with everything we’ve covered today, is there anything you wanna leave the listeners to ponder on?

Sarah (55:57):
Yeah, the, a lot of the times we feel like because we’re really into one thing or because we’ve learned this new thing in our knowledge bank that that might disregard or negate some other thing. And a lot of the times what’s really happening is, is that we’re adding to our perspective, so it’s not going this or that, but humanity at large right now, the huge issue with humanity right now, which is making my job easy but not for humanity <laugh>, um, is that it’s not always, it’s rarely an either or. And so with that, if there’s ways that a person would challenge themselves, if it doesn’t fit, it doesn’t fit, don’t force things, but I challenge a person to see how whatever they once thought or whatever teachings, what whatever perception they once held can actually coexist with where they are now, but in a way where both of those perceptions have now somehow created an alchemy to where it’s led to something that’s larger than the sum of their parts. That’s just a nice little challenge. Hmm. It’s the three day challenge of <laugh> triangle of perception, <laugh>, seeing that point, that point, and then where perhaps there was, um, an overlap and then something that created a synergy that’s at least where humanity’s next step is at the moment. So that’s why I say that.

Guy (57:39):
Yeah. Beautiful. Beautiful. Where can we send people, if they wanna find out more about your work? Uh, clearly you’ve got a great YouTube channel going on as well, so I’ll make sure the links are in the show notes, but if you could say them out loud as well, that would be great.

Sarah (57:54):
Yeah, so my website, the alchemist.community, that’s where you could, you know, sign up for my newsletter. That’s where you could see, uh, there’s links to my social media through there. I have articles, all of that fun stuff. I, that’s where I put when I have my Alchemy retreats and then yeah, through my YouTube channel, the Alchemist is what has shown proven a few times. When I plop that up, I come up first and that’s how people could find my content on there, my videos, and that’s where I’m designating the most attention, love, passion, and focus at the moment. So if you wanna find me anywhere, you could find me on my website or on YouTube.

Guy (58:38):
On YouTube. Beautiful. Yeah. Well, Sarah, thank you for taking the time and, and coming on the podcast today. Um, I really enjoyed the conversation and appreciate what you’re doing and I’ll be sure to, to share it with my community here and, uh, and support the work as,

Sarah (58:53):
Uh, thank you so much.

Guy (58:54):
Continues to grow more and more. You’re welcome, Sarah. Thank you.
