I Realised I Was Dressing Like an Old Version of Me

When Life Looks Good But Something Still Feels Missing

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] What if the feeling you've been trying to fix isn't dissatisfaction at all? What if it's grief? Not grief for something you've lost. Grief for something you haven't yet lived. In this episode, Melissa explores the quiet tension that can arise when life looks good on the outside, but something deeper keeps whispering that there is more. Together we explore: * The difference between dissatisfaction and soul longing * Why this feeling often appears after we've built a successful life * Grief as love with nowhere to go * The hidden agreements that keep us playing small * Why comparison can sometimes be a clue * What your soul may be trying to express through you This conversation is an invitation to stop asking: "What's wrong with me?" And start asking: "What wants to come through me?"

The Girl Who Knew Too Much - Why Knowing More Isn't Changing Your Life

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] For years, I thought the answer was more information. More books. More courses. More certifications. More understanding. And whilst knowledge has been one of my greatest gifts, I eventually realised it had also become one of my greatest hiding places. In this episode, I share my own journey through personal development, Reiki, psychotherapy, coaching, spirituality, and self-discovery - and the surprising realisation that changed everything: The problem wasn't that I didn't know enough. The problem was that the wrong part of me was in charge. We explore: * why awareness alone doesn't create change * the difference between knowing and embodying * the Inner Boardroom * why personal growth can become a form of avoidance * who is really making your decisions * how to create deeper congruence between wisdom and action If you've ever found yourself saying: "But I know what to do..."

Your Wound Is Not Your Medicine (Yet)

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] Your wound is your medicine… Unless it’s still choosing for you. In this deeply personal episode of Mystic in Training, Melissa Amos explores the hidden difference between wounds that have become wisdom - and wounds that are still unconsciously driving our behaviour. Blending psychotherapy, spiritual intelligence, Akashic wisdom and identity work, Melissa shares the uncomfortable but transformative realisation that understanding your pain is not the same thing as being free from it. This episode dives into: * Hidden agreements and unconscious identity patterns * Why spiritually intelligent people often intellectualise their feelings * Overthinking, overprocessing and overachieving as protection mechanisms * The wound underneath ambition and perfectionism * How trauma can shape gifts, intuition and purpose * The difference between survival mode and embodied healing * What it really means for your wound to become your medicine Melissa vulnerably shares how her own need to be “exceptional” became both her gift and her protection strategy - and how her healing journey is no longer about becoming less deep, less ambitious or less sensitive, but becoming safe enough to stop hiding inside those identities. If you’ve ever: * understood your patterns but still felt stuck * hidden behind intelligence, spirituality or achievement * struggled to feel truly seen * felt driven to prove yourself * used growth and healing as identity * sensed there’s another layer underneath your success …this episode is for you. This is one of the deepest and most revealing episodes of Mystic in Training so far. PS - in my world, we don’t just have the awareness. We move from it.  Join the Decision Activator, we start on Monday: https://melissa-amos.com/decision-activator/ [https://melissa-amos.com/decision-activator/] Memoirs of a Mystic In Training, by Melissa Amos is available on Amazon Learn more about Melissa by visiting her website melissa-amos.com and download a free hypnotherapeutic series, Intuition Rewired.  Follow her @themelissaamos across the platforms

Personal Training, Self-Sabotage & The Psychology of Transformation

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] I started working with a personal trainer today. But very quickly, I realised this wasn’t really about fitness. It was about identity. Self-trust. Discomfort. And the hidden negotiations that happen inside all of us when we begin stepping into a new level of life. In this episode, I explore: * hidden agreements * nervous system conditioning * why we self-sabotage * the psychology of change * cognitive dissonance * neuroplasticity * and the deeper soul-led pull toward growth and expansion Because most people do not fail because they lack information. They struggle because their identity, conditioning, and subconscious programming cannot yet hold the life they say they want. This is a grounded conversation around transformation, embodiment, psychology, and becoming the version of yourself capable of holding more.

The Doors You Keep Not Walking Through

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] What if every decision you make is a doorway? In this episode of Mystic in Training, Melissa Amos explores the psychology and spirituality of expansion after a transformational retreat with Dr Robert Holden. Together, they explored the idea of “doors” - the moments, choices, opportunities and thresholds we are invited to walk through in life. But what happens when fear, conditioning, self-doubt and the need for certainty keep us hesitating at the threshold? Inside this episode: * Why we keep negotiating with our expansion * The psychology behind hesitation and self-protection * How your nervous system responds to growth * Why “clarity” is often disguised fear * The hidden cost of waiting until you feel ready * How micro decisions shape your entire life * The difference between your soul’s expansion and your human need for safety * How to build self-trust through action This episode blends psychology, spirituality, nervous system work, identity, intuition and personal transformation into a deeply reflective conversation about becoming who you were always meant to be. Because sometimes the doorway isn’t the scary part. It’s who you have to become on the other side of it.
