The Mystic In Training Podcast

People Don't See You. They See Themselves.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] Have you ever been surprised by the way somebody sees you? Perhaps you've been called intimidating by one person and inspiring by another. Warm by one person and distant by another. How can both be true? In this episode of Mystic in Training, Melissa explores one of the most liberating and confronting realisations on the path of self-discovery: Most people don't actually see us. They see us through the lens of themselves. Together, we explore: * Why we live as different versions of ourselves in different people's minds * How our wounds shape the way we relate to others * The difference between wound-to-wound and soul-to-soul connection * Why people pleasing and shape-shifting create disconnection * How fear of rejection often causes us to dilute ourselves * Why aliveness is one of the greatest clues to who you really are * The grief of letting go of the version of you that exists in somebody else's story Because perhaps freedom isn't being fully understood. Perhaps freedom is knowing who you are, even when others cannot yet see it.

The Purpose Beyond Healing

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2530214/fan_mail/new] I went to see Peter Crone this weekend and found myself asking a question I haven't been able to stop thinking about since. What if breaking free from limitation isn't the purpose? What if it's just the beginning? In this episode we explore: * Why the soul doesn't see anything as broken * The hidden purpose of wounds * Healing versus expression * What happens after we outgrow old stories * Why your medicine doesn't disappear when your wound heals * How purpose evolves throughout your life * The Golden Thread that continues to call us forward This is a conversation about healing, identity, evolution and becoming. Because perhaps the real question isn't: "How do I heal?" But: "Who am I becoming?"

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.
