(Part 4) You Chose This Life: Exploring Soul Agreements, Birth and Death & Beyond with Shareen Webb

Are You Following Your Voice or Borrowing Someone Else’s — A Conversation with Chika

In this impromptu Zoom conversation, I sits down with Chika Asakawa to explore her courageous return to music after a decade-long pause. At 31, Chika made the decision to leave a stable teaching career and answer a calling she could no longer ignore. What unfolds is an honest reflection on fear, regret, shame, and the quiet inner knowing that asks to be trusted, even when the timing feels “too late” or the dream feels too big. This conversation moves through the layers of Chika’s journey, from unresolved shame around leaving an opera program in her early 20s, to redefining success beyond safety and stability, to learning how to distinguish her own voice from the noise of family, society, and self-doubt. Music, for Chika, is not just a creative outlet. It is a healing space. A place where vulnerability challenges perfectionism, and where self-expression becomes an act of courage rather than performance. In the second part of the conversation, Chika opens up about her lifelong struggle with vulnerability and how she is learning to share imperfect work as a way to build trust with herself. The session closes with an impromptu, a cappella performance of “Landslide”, a moment that captures the essence of her journey: choosing presence and honesty over preparation and perfection. If you’ve been waiting for permission to start again, this conversation might be the reminder you need.

In this final impromptu conversation, we continue exploring the nature of spirit, embodiment, and consciousness beyond linear understanding. Rather than offering fixed answers, this conversation moves through metaphors, lived experiences, and intuitive reflections on how spirit experiences itself through form and time. It touches the edges of questions that are often felt more than they are explained. This is not presented as universal truth. It is an open invitation to wonder, to reflect, and to find what resonates with your own inner knowing. Watch with curiosity. Let your own insights arise as they may✨ If this conversation opens something for you, you’re welcome to share your reflections below.

(Part 3) You Chose This Life : Exploring Soul Agreements, Birth, Death and Beyond with Shareen Webb

In this episode, I continues my conversation with Shareen Webb, diving into one of the most misunderstood and emotionally charged topics: death, rebirth, and spiritual agreements. Shareen shares a deeply personal experience of a moment in her life where she became aware of a planned exit point and consciously renegotiated it. From prophetic dreams and spiritual negotiations to the idea of life “resetting” without physical death, this conversation explores how our souls evolve, choose, and continue beyond linear timelines. This episode offers a grounded yet expansive perspective on mortality, spirituality, and choice, inviting listeners to question fear-based narratives and reconnect with a deeper understanding of life’s cycles. 🎧 Listen with openness and discernment. ✨ Part 3 of the podcast series.

(Part 2) You Chose This Life: Exploring Soul Agreements, Birth, Death and Beyond with Shareen Webb

In Part 2, the conversation deepens into birth contracts and soul-level agreements, and how they shape our life paths, relationships, and recurring patterns. We explore how these agreements evolve, how some are completed or released, and how greater awareness allows us to move beyond inherited survival responses. This episode invites a deeper understanding of choice, responsibility, and conscious participation in one’s life journey.

You Chose This Life: Exploring Soul Agreements, Birth, Death and Beyond with Shareen Webb — Part.1

In this impromptu and deeply honest Part 1 conversation, I sits down with Shareen Webb to explore what most people never talk about: what really happens before we are born. This episode moves through the energetic journey of conception and birth, how fear and safety patterns can begin before we’re conscious, and how generational imprints are carried through the body and energy field. We reflect on soul agreements, pre-birth planning, and why certain relationships feel karmic, intense, or instantly familiar, as well as how early birth imprints can shape courage, survival responses, and repeating life patterns. This first part lays the foundation for a deeper continuation in Part 2, where the conversation expands further into birth contracts and soul-level agreements.
