Today, two wonderful beings are here just for you, so can become courageous, more comfortable, at ease of being a little bit more who you are on this beautiful Earth.
Meilin Ehlke 0:48
Hello everyone, I'm Meilin Ehlke your host of the Moving To Oneness podcast. And I have a wonderful guest sitting with me in Chicago, Illinois. Hello Sophia, wonderful to have you on Moving To Oneness.
Sopheia McMorris 1:00
Thank you so much for having me. I'm very excited to be here, and I definitely love your title Moving Into Oneness.
Meilin Ehlke 1:27
Yeah, because it's so important. Right? I think we're all looking for this. To first of all, to move into ourselves. To understand who we are. For me to understand who I am. For you probably who you are. And then who are we as a collective, as human beings on this planet? And too often I think there is not enough discourse, where we can even talk about this freely, without judgment, without being looked at. And nowadays I think the energies are right, and we have so much support from other beings, [Chuckle] and the Star Nations, the plants, yeah. To understand more of how we function. How we can in a way, dictate our life, or what we want to create. Also of what parts, I want to live, that you want to live, right, and crystallize that out. And I sense there is now also strong support from others, and the ears of others to listen. So we can go on this journey inward to understand ourselves better, but at the same time, on the journey to understand others better, because through others, right, then I see myself again different. If I'm all alone and incapsulated, which we're not supposed to be, it's very, I think a little sad, too many people are so much alone, not in community, not with friends or family. So something like Zoom, now, helps. So we're not so much alone, but this beautiful discourse to understand how I'm seen. Right? Because I think other people don't see so often with such judgment, as we have judgment here in our head. What do you think Sophia?
Sopheia McMorris 3:47
I totally agree. I think a lot of times we can, you know, have that judgment, that self critic, that you know, kind of, you know, chatter is in our ear and we can, you know, give in to listening, and then to, you know, judge ourselves in a way that says, you know, maybe I'm a failure or I'm this or I'm not enough. Instead of really just recognize as a whole, that we have oneness and we can have oneness and alignment within ourselves and oneness and alignment with our Creator, God, Universe, whatever we call our higher power.
Meilin Ehlke 4:30
You so right, and you come to it with a lot of love. What I like so much about you Sopheia you always smile. Ha, Ha.
Sopheia McMorris 4:39
Hmm. Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 4:42
I've always seen you smile, and the smile goes from your mouth over to all your muscles of your face and your eyes and I think out of your body it radiates. So, how come you're so happy? Oh, how come you are radiating out that smile, that love?
Sopheia McMorris 5:06
I think it's because I have discovered, you know, what's my purpose and what's my reason for being. I think that once I started my journey of transformation and change and self mastery, and I discovered I, this is what I meant to be doing, then, that was a way that just kind of brought me to that place of happiness, where I'm enjoying the journey, not just the destination of where I ultimately want to be.
Meilin Ehlke 5:39
Uh, ja. So what made you start the journey?
Sopheia McMorris 5:45
Well my journey started with... You know, I'm from Jamaica and so I came to the US and when I came, I was like early teenage years and I started experiencing struggling with my weight. And so that consistently continued on into my adult years. I felt like the swan and The Ugly Duckling story, just really desperate to master my life. I kept going around the mountain, and I thought I was moving forward, but I really wasn't. I was kind of staying stagnant in the same place. And so, for me, I would start a journey. Like every year my New Year's resolution was always the same, you know, to lose weight and get healthy. So for three months out of the year I would do some kind of fasting, cleanse dieting programs, centering myself and all these other things. And I would lose 50 pounds, but then by the end of the year, I would go back, I would have gained back all the weight and, you know, some extra with it. And so, that became very frustrating for me. I was like this is not working. And I said, I have to figure out a way to get up and over the mountain. So, at one point, I decided that I would sign up for weight loss surgery. And so, six months into waiting for my weight loss surgery date, I didn't get receive one and I was so frustrated I was just like, you know, if I had started one of my programs, I could have been further along by now.
Meilin Ehlke 7:28
Hmm.
Sopheia McMorris 7:28
And so I was just so you know so upset, so frustrated. I sat down to meditate. And then I read a quote, "Beloved, I wish above all things, that that would prosper and be in health even as thy soul prosper". And so for the first time the word soul spoke to me and I started asking myself, what's my soul's prosperity? How can I prosper my soul? And how can it actually help me to have the physical transformation that I've been, you know, just looking for, searching for, hungry for, trying to reach, but not being able to get there? And so, when I sat down and I started asking those questions, I went on to discover my soul's prosperity with, you know, wrapped in self mastery. So that's why I teach the Art of Self Mastery, to people who want to live to their highest potential. They want to be who they want to be. They want to be able to experience, you know, life of success and fulfillment and really be able to, you know, live life on their own terms and be the drivers of their destiny, because that's what I wanted to do for myself. And so that's been my transformation, I was able to go on to lose 100 pounds. And so I was just like everybody needs to know. Everybody needs to know the secret of what it takes to really move your life forward, to be that successful person and live to your highest potential.
Meilin Ehlke 9:07
Hmm. Yeah, I love the word prosperity. It is a word that carries excitement.
Sopheia McMorris 9:17
Yeah. Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 9:18
Yeah, doesn't it? And sometimes I will say, even the word purpose and potential it has so much weight, but prosperity it doesn't. I like that. It creates joy when you say it.
Sopheia McMorris 9:35
Yes, yes. I mean, definitely I think, that was the whole part of, you know once I started really deep diving into my soul's prosperity, and really be able to understand my own story. Understand my why. Understand, so many different things about myself. Align myself with, you know, what I'm thinking, what I'm believing, what I'm feeling, and then being able to just align myself in that oneness. Coming into that oneness with creator, you know, I was able to transform myself. And really, you know, it took time, energy, effort, and consistency in order to be able to reach the goal of losing 100 pounds, but the journey itself was so transforming that it was like, energizing. So, that's part of my reason for smiling. I discovered my purpose of what I need to do what I can bring to the planet, and really share with people about, you know, being their authentic self and really stepping into being who they've always known themselves to be.
Meilin Ehlke 10:46
I like that and I'm really curious, could you share. Why did you not change at the beginning, when you started? Can you explain a little bit the difference of the feeling of before? I mean you did lose weight, because you did probably eat less, or change the nutrition of what you were cooking, or of what you were making. Right?
Sopheia McMorris 11:15
Right.
Meilin Ehlke 11:15
But what happened that it didn't work? What happened within the body. And why did it function then later do you think when you found, or you started your journey?
Sopheia McMorris 11:29
Okay, so this is my belief and so here is, you know, some stats where studies have shown that 95% of our lives is lived in the autopilot, the subconscious mind, that comfort zone area, and only 5% of our lives is lived consciously. And I think that what I was doing, I didn't know that information at the time. So, that's part of why I kept repeating. Because when we think about like a pie for instance, and you remove 5% of it. That's that 5% that says, I want to lose weight, I want to get healthy. That's the 5% that will employ some willpower. We will lower our calories, we'll, you know, do exercise and everything like that and then we'll achieve some form of goal. Because, you know, because we're on the journey, you know, something is happening and something will happen. The reason why I went back is because that 95% was actually set to a particular embodiment, you know, so to speak. I had a pre-program, and because I didn't change the pre-program to cause it to support the 5% of what I wanted, I always went back to the set point. And so, you know, it's sort of like flying an airplane when they have the autopilot set. If it's set to go to France, then it's set to go to France. And even, if it goes off course and does something, you know, different, because we have some turbulence, you get some wind gust and different things like that it goes off course, but then it always brings it back to where it gets to the destination. And so I didn't change my destination. I didn't change the program or anything. I just kind of did some things with sheer force and willpower and you know and get into, you know, losing some way, but I always went back. And that happened for years and years and years that happened. That was always my New Year's resolution and I was like wait a minute. It needs to be different, I need to find a way.
Sopheia McMorris 13:48
So, when I tried to do the gastric bypass surgery, you know, for the weight loss, then that was going to be my way to like change the trajectory. I was looking outside of myself for a solution, that I needed to find inward. And so we're always looking out there because exercise is outside, you know, diet and all of those things happens outside, but it doesn't happen in the mind. And I think that is what we have to really check. We have to check what's going on in the mind. We have to really look at our heart beliefs, and what our values are, and then have those things that really dictate movement in life, to be in support of what we really want to achieve. And I think that was the difference. So once I was able to do the inner work to really try to understand myself and where I'm coming from what I believe in. And, you know, by the way, it's like, I understand that it wasn't even my fault because we were pre-programmed from birth to live a particular way. And the environment, influenced us as well in school and all of those things. So, I got all these programming that I needed to change and that's part of the way we can get the 95% that subconscious mind to support the 5% of what we want. It is that we have to really input our own self beliefs like what we believe in what we really want. What matters most to us? What values do we hold? All of that is a whole inner work that we have to do in order to move ourselves forward and really live the life that we want to live.
Meilin Ehlke 15:35
Really interesting. So yeah, you're so right, often, you know, we know what to do. But we can't. The body just doesn't follow it. And I was thinking you know you said probably a few times the intention to align, and you tried it from different angles, or different directions. Let's stay for a second with the diet, right, maybe different diets, each year, but the way we were programmed, how we grew up, everything, the foods that nourish ourselves, that make us feel safe, or that maybe our mothers cooked.
Sopheia McMorris 16:19
Right.
Meilin Ehlke 16:21
Even cultural we eat, so different, so you can't even say it's this or that. And so one starts and also, I think right, it takes time, and probably you did start changing a lot of things but you don't notice it. So sometimes I just observing myself. I went through that too because sometimes I take on weight when there are a lot of energies out there. There have been a few years, where this happened. And this year, I would say, and last year, again, I took on a lot of energies and I put it on to my body. And then there's, you know what you should do. You know what you should eat or to do this kind of sport. But I always believe suddenly there is the right moment. If you set the intention and desire this alignment, where all the puzzle pieces fit, and then it goes like on automatic. And I'm still, maybe we can talk about that, interested, right. What is suddenly that shift? Or when do we sense, "Oh, now it's safe to go back into that mode". Or maybe a trauma had to be healed. That's why these phases had been. Even for me, right were I ate the cakes, but the cake or whatever. The experience while eating, it brought certain thoughts up. A certain awareness, where we had to look at it, or I had to look at it, and I could then shift it or transform or acknowledge it.
Meilin Ehlke 18:01
Often, we just need an acknowledgement, but it has to come out of our body, and up. So, then suddenly, the body starts automatically and I'm still not close why and when this happens, it suddenly craves certain things, then you go into a store and you buy different foods. You eat different or you eat less, or at different times. That's often an impact, you switch your rhythm when you eat. Your environment switches, also with you. Suddenly they change, and it becomes easier for you to do what you wanted to do anyway, or what I wanted to do anyway. One says, "Oh, now I can do it with ease. Without, you know cooking three times, because they're also demanding this at the moment. So there are many different reasons. So that's why. What do you think was then the ignition in that year, where you decided to even do the meditation, that you could get to that point of meditation, to get that acknowledgement. "Oh, that's what I'm here to do. And now, let me get my body fit and the environment supports me now in living my purpose"?
Sopheia McMorris 19:22
Well, I think that, what happened for me is because I was always meditating. See, I am a person that I always wanted to change. It wasn't that I didn't want to change, I mean, I was literally, you know, finding, trying to find different avenues to really change my life. I studied natural health medicine. I became a natural health practitioner, so I would learn about healthy foods and different ways and, you know, herbal therapies and all of these things that would support me losing the weight. But I think that, you know, I had to really do some inner, you know, self discovery of my own, and really, you know, recognize that I have choices. And then I can make a decision
Meilin Ehlke 20:13
Yes, that is an important point. I love that. That is it.
Sopheia McMorris 20:16
Yeah, you know, make the choice that I can do this. What I have to change too, is that I would do three months out of the year, I had to recognize that this was an ongoing process. And so, however long it took, then that's what we were going to do in order to reach our goal. Even though we had to be flexible with the plan sometime we had setbacks we went backwards, we went forward, you know, but we still stayed on that journey, and really still see that goal. And so I think it's a lot that, um, you know there's a lot of different things that has to go on but the choice of recognizing that you have a choice, and how to then navigate the choice into making a decision, and then walking it out. Because sometimes we have the head knowledge, but we don't have the heart belief to move us in that direction. We have to be able to believe in ourself that this is something that I can actually do.
Meilin Ehlke 21:12
To be save.
Sopheia McMorris 21:13
Yeah. Then I can say actually, you know, be able to lose the weight and keep it off, and then really start changing our self image of how we see ourselves. And then, you know, stepping into that like rhythmically, every day, you know it's ongoing, and so it's never, you know, a one and done which was what I was doing before I would do three months, "Okay, you know I achieve something this is good". You know, and then I would start what I call the party. One of the things about eating is not one time I was sitting down, I had this thing where when I would get stressed and at first I didn't even know that I was an emotional eater, so I had to realize so many different things about myself and become aware. So I would eat, you know, I would have things happen and I would buy myself a brownie pie, and I would sit down and I would eat my brownie pie. And so one day, I'm like, you know, just just processing myself. And I would say that I heard the voice of God say to me, Do you know why you eat sweet things?" And I was just like, "No". You know, and then he says, "it's because you want people to be sweet to you".
Meilin Ehlke 22:11
Uhhh.
Sopheia McMorris 22:13
And I was like, "Oh my gosh". Like it made so much sense that, you know, every time that I wasn't really having that sweetness being given to me, then I would reach for it in another way. And, you know I still enjoy sweet things, but I don't eat the whole brownie pie like I used to, you know, because I was able to give that to myself, that sweetness, forming that self love and this is one of the things that I talk about is, that in our self discovery process. It's just like me meeting you and you meeting me. And we want to get to know each other, we want to talk to each other and the more we get to know each other more, we say we like each other. And the more we say like, "oh my goodness I really love her. She is like a great person", and everything. And in self discovery, when we take that on ourselves, we experienced the same thing. When we get to know our own abilities, when we get to know our own capabilities the more amazing things that we can do, and that we've actually done, then we get to love ourselves, even the more, and I think love is our superpower. And that's, the thing that goes across, it's the thing that we want the most in life, and it's also the superpower that we have that we can give to ourselves and then give to others. So that's where I started being sweet to myself, and take more taking more care of me with practicing compassion and kindness and, you know, empathy for myself, so that way I could be able to be in the position to actually be able to give that to, to others as well. So, that was this whole journey for me. And you know when I realized and learned that I was doing this, eating this, lots of sweet things, because I wanted sweetness in my life. When I was able to give that to myself. Then I was able to transform, I was able to let it go. So I didn't have to eat it. In order to get it, I could just give it to myself.
Sopheia McMorris 24:36
So I have two personas, I have big girl Sophia and baby girl Sophia and whenever I start experiencing some emotions, big girl Sophia says, "Hold on. What's going on? What do we need to do right now? What do we need right now", and so, I take that time to process myself and go through that process and nurture myself. You do that too with self care. And so, I would tell people that self love and self care are not the same thing, but self care is born from self love.
Meilin Ehlke 25:11
Oh, I like that sentence.
Sopheia McMorris 25:12
And the reason why I say that is that when we're able to give that compassion to ourselves, when we are able to treat ourselves like our own best friend, and not like an enemy when we're able to nurture our, and be empathic, you know, have that empathy within ourselves about ourselves about what we've been going through, then we're able to, you know, transform ourselves and yeah, then we can give ourselves the, the physical aspects of, you know, you know, exercising, eating right, you know, taking walks doing those kind of things that are self care things, you know, spending some time in nature and all of those things, those are self care thing but really we have to do the inner aspect of it first so that way we can get to that. So I believe that it's born from love from you know from self love and that is it when self love is not the same thing.
Meilin Ehlke 26:09
Really, I like that a lot. You have that heart behind you, painted a big one and I always see you wearing red. So love is oozing out as I said before. And yes, it is looking at ourselves in a new way, in a loving way. And that's not so easy. If you were, for example, looked at harshly in life. I also love what you said about the sweetness, when you eat that you want to be treated sweet. Everyone wants to be loved. That's also what I believe, deep down this is what feeds everything. Everyone maybe expresses it in a different way. And to take the time to discover how to love ourselves, is not so easy. You're right, but it is possible.
Sopheia McMorris 27:05
Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 27:06
We have to start slow, it is a slow unfolding, or opening up. Opening up the heart, opening up your eyes, opening up your ears, trusting your own thoughts, a little bit more, trusting the people more around you, right, learning more about yourself. It is a whole journey and there I even liked, when you were saying, I had an image when you were speaking, like we zoom out, and from above, I don't know like 10,000 feet and then to look at our life because, it's not one single thing, but we can do tiny shift, wherever you can shift something or wherever I can, wherever we can shift something together, or try something out, I should say. Or experience newness, or walk in a new way, dance in a new way, eat in a new way. Right. Try a different restaurant, express yourself in a new way, using new vocabulary. Right?
Sopheia McMorris 28:17
Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 28:17
All these ways. And then, when you see it is like a huge puzzle and then you can zoom back in. And this in and out, I think, is then very rhythmic and we are people that are not static. Right? We're very flexible, and we've been trained to be static and tight. And when you let yourself or allow yourself more to go into movement and try out things and do choices as you said so beautifully. And if it's the wrong choice, it's okay, I mean there's no wrong choice you just notice, "oh this is not the choice that suits me or that I want to pursue", and you try something new. Right?
Sopheia McMorris 28:58
Yeah, exactly.
Meilin Ehlke 28:58
Because it created experiences. Yeah, and to feel safe to open up, so you can do this self care, you know, taking the time for yourself. That is difficult, that means you have to practice, maybe doing other things, or being with more other people, where you pull back a little bit for yourself or you switch the things you do with other people. So let's say maybe you have done always what they said, and you agreed. So now you can be in command and you say, "oh, do I really like that? Do I have fun with it when I do it?' And you become courageous and say and you choose, "You know, guys. I like what you do, but I really would love this. Maybe we could do this". Become open to speak out. And I think that is maybe at the end, the biggest shift to becoming comfortable in saying yes to yourself.
Sopheia McMorris 28:59
Yes, yes, it's really about prioritizing and giving yourself that gift of permission to say what you want. And so that was like one of the important things that I had to do for myself, to really recognize that I'm not in agreement with certain things, I don't really want that and to identify what I wanted, and then be able to step out and do it.
Sopheia McMorris 30:31
So I have this story for years, I would pass by this nature preserve, and I would say every time I would drive by, I would say, one day I'm gonna go over there and go for a walk. And you know it was all forestry and everything like that and there was a little parking lot, and I was just like okay, and then I started telling people that you know I was thinking about going over there for walking. They started saying, "Oh well, you know, that could be scary and this can happen and that could happen and the other can happen", and everything. But what I discovered on my self-discovery journey, that I had so much emotions that were just like exploding out of me, I eventually had to make myself get up and get dressed and go for a walk. And so, I started going for a walk in this forest preserve and I would walk four miles just in nature. And the discovery was also, that I started talking to myself. I would talk to myself. I talked to God. I talked to air. I just started this conversation, because it really helped me to process what I wanted, who I wanted to be and how I wanted to show up in the world. And so that has been ever since I started that, I haven't stopped, even when it's really cold and it's 20 degrees or at some other degrees, I still go for these walks and it's almost like now it's like, I have to. You know, cuz I'm like, oh I need a moment to decompress and get myself together and I always come away from it, really refreshed feeling rejuvenated and feel like you know I've been heard. I'm, you know, I've been able to speak and I think that was the permission that I needed to give myself to be able to be with myself and to, you know, develop it. I love being with people. I like, you know, interacting and giving love and receiving love and sharing and all of those things, but I really also do enjoy having these moments to myself, where I get to be with me, because I love me too.
Meilin Ehlke 32:41
I love that. Yeah, you are so right because there was a strong call and it's really interesting. So, you heard that, you didn't act and when you were ready to really act on the call, you went to the nature preserve. And nature is so nice. Right? It calms us. It provides an ear.
Sopheia McMorris 33:02
Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 33:02
It changes our energy, while it balances and harmonizes us. And what also came, you were saying, that you started talking. And I learned from a Curandera, she passed on, a beautiful woman, but I remember an exercise she did with us, where we were doing partner work. And she said, "Speak about something for 20 minutes and the other person just listen, not even talk, or hmm, or say yes". Really to just be present, but not to show too much of how we agree or disagree. What I learned that day, it was really fascinating to observe the lady I was with, she started talking and it was a rather grief I thought topic she was speaking about. But she spoke her way through. She gave her own first voice to her fears, she answered, and gave herself ideas, and at the end she did her own healing. I didn't have to do anything. I just had to give her the space and be present, so she could be feel safe to go through these motions. And often I believe, nature is the same way, it provides this same feeling of safety, of feeling embraced, of being held, so we can go through this.
Sopheia McMorris 33:34
Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 33:55
Not everyone can go into the forrest, if you are in the woods it is an extreme. Right? We have so many plants there and the earth, but maybe even, if you have a garden, or you have a balcony, or you have a park if you live in a city, or a beach, or a pond, wherever a place where you can just take time for yourself or have a good friend and tell them, "Can you go with me through this. Just be there for me, don't answer", or even your partner, and explore your own way of discovering yourself. Or do I like Sophia. I love that. Nature anyway, I'm the biggest fan of it, because we're in communion. We're not alone. We're beings that are never alone. And in these woods you feel, you don't fear, you recognize that you are surrounded by everything existing and this is a very comforting and in a way, also strengthening feeling.
Sopheia McMorris 35:45
Yes, yes. I vent all my emotions, because that was part of the the thing too that was keeping me stuck in the loop is, that I wouldn't you know vent myself. I didn't create that space for me to say what I was feeling, what was hurting me, or what was giving me joy. And so now, I get to go out into the woods, and I mean, I just love it. I put on my headphones. I act like I'm talking on my phone or something, you know I just love it when I'm able to express myself and I process my day and I said, "this is what I enjoyed or this feeling came up and I'm not sure what this is". And just like you said, it's like you talk your way through it, and then you come up with the answer, and then you perform your own healing and get the solution for you know for moving forward and everything like that so yeah that is, like, you know, one of the most joyous time that I can experience, where I'm centering myself and, you know, being in that oneness, you know with nature and with myself and everything. So yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 37:04
Yeah, because I think too often we really think we're alone, and many of us are alone but going outdoors getting out of the square room, apartment or house, and then you don't feel so alone and sad. So, if you have the strength to get up, to break your own rhythm, and maybe start and look maybe for other people that start walking or going somewhere in the park. Or tell a friend, "can you call me once a week and just tell me", let's say, Susie, "Susie you wanted to go for a walk. Today is the day, go do it". Right?
Sopheia McMorris 37:50
Right
Meilin Ehlke 37:49
Build up a support team, get an accountability partner, there are a lot of people like that to help you. Maybe an animal, something that pulls you outside and you don't have to get on yourself, but you can go to an animal shelter. Right? There are dogs that need to be walked. So, if you want to have something additional because you want to do something good at the same time. So two things at once. And also when we do walk our brain functions differently. Right. That's a good way of processing things so that's also a support.
Sopheia McMorris 37:54
Yes. Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 38:00
Wow, Sopheia, so you have a lot. I bet this is a topic we could talk for hours, because you changed in all parts of life and you just shared a few. But the one, the weight was in a way, your stepping stone.
Sopheia McMorris 38:49
Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 38:49
Where you said something has to happen because of this. And that started your journey but it encumbrances everything. Right?
Sopheia McMorris 38:58
Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 38:58
As you said so beautifully the oneness we come with rest, nourishing ourselves nourishing others, being nourished by others, making choices, maybe it's a new profession. There's so many things, then go with it or resting, sleeping different. Yeah?
Sopheia McMorris 39:20
Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 39:20
So, how can people connect with you to learn more about you or to learn how they could work with you together.
Sopheia McMorris 39:30
They can go to Sopheia speaks wisdom dot com, and that's S O P H E I A, so I'm Sopheia with an E, so that's the difference in the spelling, but it's still Sofia, so you have to spell it SopheiaSpeaksWisdom.com, and you can get all the information. You can learn more about me and you can make an appointment to work with me.
Meilin Ehlke 40:05
Yeah, you do speak wisdom, you're very clear in expressing and bringing through who you are and I can feel it, or we can feel it just listening to you. We're seeing you, and it's an unending. It's like you opened up to yourself, and you're helping others to open up to themselves, right, to live ourselves passionately, and to feel their purpose here as you said so beautifully.
Sopheia McMorris 40:42
Right, right.
Meilin Ehlke 40:44
So give us what arises for you to say as a last word to someone who's striving to switch something up, so they can be the best of themselves?
Sopheia McMorris 40:57
Well I would say, one of the things that I help people do, and when we first start working together is to create a plan. And when you create this life plan, you're able to say all the things that you want, all the things that you you want to accomplish and you create that whole journey for yourself, because I think it's all of who we are is wrapped up in what we want. And we have these wants, but because we don't have the support of the 95% of ourselves to support us in doing so, we just kind of have it as an idea, as a dream, and it doesn't really become our reality, because we struggling against, you know, trying to do it and every time we might try, we end up back in the same place again. And so it's really about creating this plan, and then making the choice to do consciously choose to live this plan, and in your consciousness decide all the ways that you will walk out to get to your goal. And so, it may mean, that you have to do your self discovery. Really learning yourself and really, you know, growing as an individual because as human beings we are always growing.
Meilin Ehlke 42:14
Ja.
Sopheia McMorris 42:16
So we have, it's an ongoing process. And when you step outside your comfort zone, and really decide to follow your heart, and really live to your highest potential, then that's the way, that you can do it, is by creating this plan and then walking it out for yourself.
Meilin Ehlke 42:32
Oh, like, I really like that, to see the big picture. To dream, huge, humongous.
Sopheia McMorris 42:39
Yes, yeah, Everything that you want. Yeah, yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 43:43
And then to say, uh, those are all the little things I have to start turning. So all these lines or webs, like a big spider web, right, they start moving you forward, everything gets tighter then and suddenly you feel the shift.
Sopheia McMorris 43:02
Yes.
Meilin Ehlke 43:02
Right? Earlier or later, it depends on how many parts you start on, but it's doable everyone, it is really doable.
Sopheia McMorris 43:13
Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 43:15
I've seen it so often I've experienced that myself. Sopheia has experienced it. Wisdom but for both of us is very important. That's what we want to live, and we want to follow our own wisdom, right, and knowledge, and live it, walk it.
Sopheia McMorris 43:32
Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 43:33
And whoever is listening today or watching they have the same desire. You want to really walk your truth and make an impact on this earth with your beingness, you know you have a reason why you're here, so feel embraced by me, by Sopheia, the whole community that is listening, to move forward.
Sopheia McMorris 44:04
Yeah.
Meilin Ehlke 44:05
If you have to stop, that is perfect. If you have to turn around, that is perfect. If you have to go backwards for a little bit, or left and right, that is perfect too. There is really no wrong way. Keep it going and explore your life and move forward as the name of our podcast Moving To Oneness. So come to the facebook group where you do feel supported by others that are also interested in moving into their own oneness, as into the oneness of everything that is existing.
Meilin Ehlke 44:45
