You Never Stop Growing: Shadow Work, Authenticity & Unlocking Your Psychic Gifts | Amber Soleil

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2555165/fan_mail/new] What does it look like to do the inner work for twenty years — and still find new triggers every week worth paying attention to? In this episode, Heather Zimmerman sits down with Amber Soleil — intuitive life coach, psychic reader, somatic guide, energy healer, licensed massage therapist, channeler, and founder of the Unlock Your Psychic Abilities Facebook group — for one of those conversations where two people recognize each other and go deep immediately. Amber shares: * Twenty years of intuitive development, shadow work, and channeling — and why she considers herself a "jack of all trades" in this space * The relationship between authenticity and unconditional love — whether you need one to access the other, and why the healing journey is never linear * Shadow work as ongoing practice, not destination — and why she was surprised when someone her age said they were done growing (her nine-year-old's response: "You never stop growing") * The ego and how to work with it rather than against it — with wisdom and a little humor * Channeling for the collective consciousness and what those messages consistently say * How her belief system has been built entirely on direct experience — from "us and ghosts" to angels, twin flames, galactic energies, and beyond * The reading that finally made angel energy real for her — and what she saw wrapped around a woman in her final days * The nature of time: singular point, all-at-once, jumping timelines, and how our consciousness chooses which reality to inhabit * Rainbow and indigo children, the next generation, and why every generation seems to arrive more connected than the last * Automatic writing as a starting point — and Heather's tip for people with ADHD brains who want to try it * Her Facebook group Unlock Your Psychic Abilities (nearly 8,000 members), her courses (Intuitive Foundations, Unlock Your Intuition, Empowered Empath, and Intuitive Parenting), and what she's building next Amber is an Intuitive Life Coach & Educator, Psychic Reader, Somatic Guide, Energy Healer, LMT & HHP. She's been doing this work for 20 years and her work is centered in awareness, accountability, presence & empowerment.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2555165/fan_mail/new] What does it take to choose gratitude when you're lying in an ICU on a ventilator, wondering why you survived at all? In this episode, Heather Zimmerman sits down with Dr. Andrea Niestas — PhD clinical psychologist, former behavioral health hospital director, life coach, and near-death survivor — for one of the most honest conversations about what it actually means to move from surviving to thriving. Dr. Andrea shares: * Nearly 20 years directing a behavioral health hospital's intake department — what it meant to be the person helping people in their worst moments, and the emotional weight that came with it * The illness that nearly killed her in 2024: months of misdiagnosis, walking with a cane, collapsing in a hotel lobby four and a half hours from home, emergency surgery, and a two-week coma * Almost dying three times — and waking up on a ventilator not knowing if she'd survive * The week she spent asking "why did I survive for this?" — and the moment she decided to stop * How she used mindset shifts and gratitude to physically recover faster — and the neuroscience behind why that works * The Rod Stewart song she kept hearing in her coma that she couldn't identify for almost a year — and what happened when she finally did * The pivot from crisis intervention to prevention: from helping people after they've broken down to helping them build the skills so they never get there * Her suicide prevention training work and why it's stayed central to her mission * What twenty years of watching people at their worst teaches you about what actually makes a life feel meaningful * Her workshops, one-on-one coaching, and the book she's planning to write * Her closing piece of advice — the one practice she does consciously every single day Dr. Andrea Niestas has a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and over 25 years of experience in behavioral health. She also spent 15 years in leadership roles, where she mentored others, provided training, and developed various programs. Dr. Niestas is a wellness coach and speaker who supports individuals seeking more meaning, connection, and fulfillment in their lives — those ready to move beyond simply existing and toward fully living.

The Neuroscience of Intuition: Reading Energy, Subconscious Blocks & Opening Your Gifts | Ashley Phillips

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2555165/fan_mail/new] What if intuition isn't a rare gift — it's a skill everyone has, and most people were just programmed to stop using it? In this episode, Heather Zimmerman sits down with Ashley Phillips — intuitive, subconscious reprogramming specialist, and teacher of the neuroscience of intuition — for a conversation about how energy reading actually works, what's blocking most people's gifts, and what it looks like to finally build a life that fits at the soul level. Ashley shares: * Why she doesn't consider herself naturally gifted — and why that's exactly what makes her such a clear teacher * The neuroscience of intuition in plain language: everything is made of light, light carries information, and intuition is simply translating that light into the language we speak * How the energetic body works — why it extends outside the physical body, why that explains so much about how we read rooms and people, and how to consciously work with it * Why 90% of communication is already happening energetically — and what most people are missing because they don't know it * The subconscious programming that blocks intuitive access — and what stripping it away actually looks like * Her own awakening: twelve years in retail management reading energy without knowing it, the "American dream" moment that broke everything open, and the seven months that rebuilt her life from the inside out * Aura management and energetic protection for empaths and sensitives — including the simple practice of consciously pulling in your aura * Her free weekly webinars, one-on-one sessions, and nine-week intuition program for people who want to actively develop and use their gifts in every area of life * Her closing piece of advice for anyone who is feeling stuck right now Ashley helps women tap into their intuition on a scientific level so they can move past their subconscious blocks and live a life they desire!!  Find Ashley Phillips: * Website: itsashleyphillips.com 💛 Support the Show [https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/MR9VWZ2XZJMAU] If this episode resonated with you, consider supporting the show with a contribution — every bit helps keep this work going. 📖 The Book [https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Divine-Awakening-Prepared-Method-ebook/dp/B0GX3RRT6N/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1VTGDH16MUYHO&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.dBJjKBMqiSOpyzTwqxTVgg.V3AkAdyoPzBHp97uH_FB41j4moRnHbdcrRy4-ef5lK4&dib_tag=se&keywords=becoming+divine+heather+zimmerman&qid=1778545037&sprefix=%2Caps%2C375&sr=8-1] BECOMING DIVINE: The Awakening No One Prepared Me For — and the Method That Showed Me the Way.

A Psychologist Who Treats the Soul: Spirituality, Awakening & Integrative Therapy | Dr. Tamar Shtrambrand

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2555165/fan_mail/new] What happens when a clinical psychologist wakes up — not just professionally, but spiritually — and realizes that the frameworks she was trained in only tell part of the story? In this episode, Heather Zimmerman sits down with Dr. Tamar Shtrambrand, licensed clinical psychologist and founder of TES Therapy, for a wide-ranging, honest conversation about the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and the Great Awakening — from inside the mind of someone trained to study the mind. Dr. Tamar shares: * Her journey from secular Jewish upbringing to Orthodox observance — and how that path was driven by genuine spiritual searching, not tradition or expectation * What she noticed during COVID that started waking her up — and what it felt like to be ahead of the curve when few people around her were ready to hear it * The DSM-5 and the expanding list of mental health diagnoses — why she finds it troubling, and why she doesn't believe God made that many mental health conditions * Her conviction that psychologists treat the soul — and why that means no single protocol will ever be sufficient * How past life reincarnations can be unconsciously intertwined with present-life struggles — and why mainstream psychology hasn't yet caught up to that * Why she believes some people labeled with serious mental illness may actually be experiencing unmanaged or unrecognized spiritual gifts * Her integrative approach to therapy: pulling the best skills from CBT, ACT, and DBT based on what resonates with the individual, not what the diagnosis says to prescribe * The relationship between religion and spirituality — and why she sees them as layered, not interchangeable * Her closing piece of advice, which is three sentences and says everything Dr. Tamar Shtrambrand is a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice in New Yotk. She is a wife and mother of three energetic teenagers. She incorporates spirituality with mindfulness, balanced nutrition, self-care, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and other well-known modalities in providing a balanced approach to therapy and healthy living.  Find Dr. Tamar Shtrambrand: * Website: TEStherapy.com 💛 Support the Show [https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/MR9VWZ2XZJMAU] If this episode resonated with you, consider supporting the show with a contribution — every bit helps keep this work going. 📖 The Book [https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Divine-Awakening-Prepared-Method-ebook/dp/B0GX3RRT6N/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1VTGDH16MUYHO&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.dBJjKBMqiSOpyzTwqxTVgg.V3AkAdyoPzBHp97uH_FB41j4moRnHbdcrRy4-ef5lK4&dib_tag=se&keywords=becoming+divine+heather+zimmerman&qid=1778545037&sprefix=%2Caps%2C375&sr=8-1] BECOMING DIVINE: The Awakening No One Prepared Me For — and the Method That Showed Me the Way.

Worthy Because You Are: Burnout, Chronic Illness & the SIMPLE System for Thriving | Diane Hallman

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2555165/fan_mail/new] What does it cost to perform your way through life — to build a resume that looks impressive while your body and spirit quietly collapse under the weight of it? In this episode, Heather Zimmerman sits down with Diane Hallman — founder of Simple Systems for Thriving, author of Nurturing Wisdom, and former CFO turned positive psychology practitioner — for a grounded, honest conversation about burnout, chronic illness, the divine feminine, and what happens when you finally stop studying healing and start living it. Diane shares: * Her own story: Crohn's disease at 14, bowel surgery in 2019, years of severe complications — and how implementing the SIMPLE system led to a clean bill of health within six months, with zero signs of inflammation * The SIMPLE framework broken down: Self-discovery, Identity, Mindset, Potential, Liveliness, and Engage — and how it helps women understand where they are and map a path to where they want to go * The Abundance Capacity Reset — what it is, why receiving is harder than giving for most women, and how to start changing that * Thirty years of studying this material before truly living it — and what finally made the difference * Why chronic illness often lives in the emotional body first — and what it looks like to actually release it rather than manage it * The distinction between knowing and embodying — you can read the recipe, but you still have to make the cookies * The divine feminine rising: from human doing to human being, from performing to receiving, from proving worth to inhabiting it * Why discernment — learning to say no to what doesn't fit your five core goals — is an act of healing, not just productivity * Her book Nurturing Wisdom (101 pages, narrative + journal prompts + practices) and how it walks readers through the full SIMPLE system Diane Lauer Hallman's primary area of expertise or focus is helping growth-minded women and organizations simplify complexity through the S.I.M.P.L.E. Systems for Thriving framework. She blends positive psychology, metaphysics, and practical strategies to guide personal and professional transformation, emphasizing emotional healing, integrity, and sustainable growth. Diane specializes in creating accessible systems that foster clarity, calm, and authentic abundance, allowing women, businesses, and communities to thrive with integrity and joy. Through her work, she focuses on unleashing full potential, nurturing emotional intelligence, and fostering meaningful relationships while ensuring that change is sustainable, soulful, and anchored in truth.  Find Diane Hallman: * Website: simplesystemsforthriving.com * Book — Nurturing Wisdom: available on Amazon and at simplesystemsforthriving.com 💛 Support the Show [https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/MR9VWZ2XZJMAU] If this episode resonated with you, consider supporting the show with a contribution — every bit helps keep this work going. 📖 The Book [https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Divine-Awakening-Prepared-Method-ebook/dp/B0GX3RRT6N/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1VTGDH16MUYHO&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.dBJjKBMqiSOpyzTwqxTVgg.V3AkAdyoPzBHp97uH_FB41j4moRnHbdcrRy4-ef5lK4&dib_tag=se&keywords=becoming+divine+heather+zimmerman&qid=1778545037&sprefix=%2Caps%2C375&sr=8-1] BECOMING DIVINE: The Awakening No One Prepared Me For — and the Method That Showed Me the Way.
