Soul Deep in Brainspotting: Healing What the Mind Can’t Reach with Lara Kassir

In this episode of Soul Deep In, I sit down with Lara Kassir, a certified hypnotherapist, transformational coach, and somatic practitioner, to talk about Brainspotting — a powerful modality that helps release trauma and emotional blockages stored in the body. Lara shares how Brainspotting works, why the body often remembers what the mind forgets, and how this approach bridges the gap between neuroscience and deep emotional healing. 🎧 Tune in as we explore the wisdom of the body, the power of presence, and what it means to truly feel and release.

Soul Deep in: The Fear with Michelle Becerra

In this episode of Soul Deep In, host Elizabeth Ana welcomes returning guest Michelle Becerra for a vulnerable and honest conversation inspired by the chapter The Fear from The Invitation by Oriah Mountain Dreamer. Michelle shares her personal reflections on love, identity, and the courage it takes to be seen, even when it means risking looking like “the fool.” As a 30-year-old newlywed navigating the complexities of military life and a recent adult autism diagnosis, Michelle offers powerful insight into how fear shows up in our relationships, our self-perception, and our deepest desires. Together, she and Elizabeth explore: * The fear of intimacy and emotional exposure * How protective patterns can persist, even in safe relationships * What it means to be “the fool” in love, and still choose it anyway * The role of neurodivergence and self-awareness in healing Michelle also opens up about her late diagnosis and how organizations like Prosper Health, which accepts insurance, can support others who are seeking answers and clarity around autism. This is a conversation for anyone learning to let go, learning to love again, or learning to trust the version of themselves that dares to want more. 🌀 Follow Michelle: ⁠@Michbgar [https://www.instagram.com/kyramlavergne/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet] 🤍 Stay connected with Elizabeth: 📲 Follow Elizabeth Ana: ⁠⁠⁠@itselizabethana⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/itselizabethana?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] 📲 Follow Souldeepin: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@souldeepin⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/souldeepin?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] 🌐 Learn more or book a ⁠⁠⁠complimentary consultation⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://cghypnosis.as.me/schedule/08385a93/appointment/11537473/calendar/8430368?calendarIds=8430368] with Elizabeth Ana: By Oriah “Mountain Dreamer” House from her book, THE INVITATION © 1999.
