You didn't come here to play safe. You came to remember your power and build what comes next. I'm Sylvia Beatrice, Psychic Medium and Intuition Coach, and this is Soul Level Human, the podcast for truth tellers, cycle breakers, and soul-led revolutionaries. You didn't come here to bypass the chaos. You came here to lead through it. I turned 40 last year, and as an energetically sensitive person, I can't help but think about how carefree and happy I was last October. I had big plans for my 40th year. I was gonna relaunch my podcast, I was gonna relaunch my lighthouse course, I was gonna be active on social media, I was working out, feeling strong, optimistic, inspired, and completely safe. And then came November, election day and election morning, and the energetic truth of what actually happened didn't match up to what I was seeing. And I kept waiting for it to line up, and it it never did. And even worse, I was seeing in real time the unveiled truth of the people around me. Oh, you you wanted this, but you weren't just not sure. You actually you're you're happy about this. Oh, you're you're not a safe person. Huh. What does it mean to be safe? Who am I? How do I fit here? And I've always known that obviously I'm a Latina, right? Growing up here in LA, I've never had the experience of feeling othered. Huge privilege. It's actually another reason, yet another reason. I've never really historically understood where I fit. I I could never tick the career box that really made sense to me. I couldn't find where I fit. The subtext of how people related to me was always you're one of the good ones. But it was never overt enough for me to really understand it or clock it. And plus, I'm sure I have so many neurodivergent things happening. I was always a little far removed from social norms and understanding coolness. Like that was never, that was never me. I didn't really even understand humor until after college, but that's a whole other story. And as a theater major at USC, the available material was largely Chicano plays, where directors wanted me to play the housekeepers or the field workers and the cholas, people with spicy food, no education, and thick Mexican accents. I'm not any of those things. I'm not Mexican. Those are lives I had zero connection to, but that's what they wanted me to do. And even in my house growing up, I didn't do chores. Um, my mom tried to teach me to do laundry, uh, but we didn't have the structure to keep up with those habits. And I shrank so many sweaters in college. I didn't know how to boil water, I didn't learn how to fry an egg until I figured it out on YouTube when I was 20. Anyway, she worked late. My sister and I always had a ton of activities on the weekends. My chores were hours and hours of homework. I was the kid at the old girls Catholic College prep high school in Hollywood. I had, you know, like four APs and two honors and a roll in a musical, and my big dramatic secret was that I failed PE in the sixth grade. I I didn't know that pretending to forget your PE uniform so you wouldn't have to participate meant that your grade went down every time. I I didn't know that. I I learned I got an F. If you didn't know it was possible to get an F in PE, yes, actually, it is possible. I've done it. My dad was a math professor, and my mom worked in radio. I wasn't spending my childhood translating for them on the phone. I wasn't cutting school, I wasn't in a gang, I wasn't into rap. My friends at school taught me to like hot Cheetos in high school over 20 years ago. I didn't grow up eating spicy food or even Mexican food, and that's really all people knew back then of any kind of Latin anything. They understood tacos and I don't know, burritos. The end. And even ceremonial cacao, if you want to take it to the spiritual side, I didn't even try ceremonial cacao until a white friend of mine introduced it to me here in LA in 2022. She explained the intention of the ceremony, but she she didn't mention that it's a Latin tradition. I found that out on my own through my own research on TikTok this year. Slightly, slightly embarrassed to admit that. But I I found an old email even from 2015. I was asking a friend if he'd ever heard of something called ayahuasca, but I spelled it a y a W. Oh my god, W A S K A. Oh my god. Like this is how disconnected from my culture, my people, like my traditions I've been. And I've learned and unlearned so much, especially over the last five years, especially over the last two years. Palestine, of course, especially over the last year. Yeah. Icy streets and winter boots have not made life easy this year. This year was the year I wrestled with energetic and epigenetic fear. My dad's side of the family being from El Salvador, where his brother was killed in the revolution for his and my dad's activism and involvement in the university's student organizations. My mom being from Honduras, having lived through a coup that I literally just learned about this week, talking about how she and others her age took shelter in a church. All of that fear was in my DNA, in my energetic field. And I didn't really know. Like I knew, but I didn't know. I had to wrestle with all of that this year. How on earth was I gonna live and keep going with anything in life while suddenly being hyper aware of my appearance because I'm actually not white and I'm actually not the preferred current type. I was hyper-aware, and still kind of am of every cyber truck, every truck with a huge Trump flag on it. I don't know about you, but this is my first hostile government takeover. I had to wrestle through and work through all of that. But it's interesting that it was so present for me because I grew up in Burbank. I watched Legends of the Hidden Temple on Nickelodeon. I would lay in bed and secretly try to turn off the light telepathically, like Alex Mack. And what if that's actually my advantage? Because it was the energetic work that I did behind the scenes this year that helped me move through it all and reconnect and recommit to my soul work. And it was my ancestral work that helped me gather the courage to put myself out there anyway and ask for help and keep going, even with oftentimes minimal support and minimal sleep, much of the time. And as an aside, notice the hidden temple and its guards were Mayan, which originated in the same place as my family in Central America. And maybe part of me understood that Alex Mack maybe wasn't all fiction. Maybe there was something to this energy stuff. I don't believe in mistakes and coincidences, and I know now that my spirit team is constantly guiding me. I didn't always know, but looking back, I can see how it's always been there. I've always been doing this. This is who I am, and I'm really proud to say this year I've done everything I set out to do. I brought back the podcast. I relaunched Lighthouse. I even cut my own hair back in March as a way to reclaim my power. And I've never ever gotten more compliments on my hair in my entire life. This past week, my husband and I reworked our entire house so we could give our kids their own rooms. Because, you know, they're getting older. And so right now, I'm actually downstairs in what was the playroom and will be my office and recording studio. And the kids are over the freaking moon about their rooms. Me and my Libre placements had the best time dreaming and scheming, and I was in flow and I was creative and I was playful, and I got to heal some of my inner child who never got that kind of a gorgeous room. And it was all beautiful and powerful and good. And this year has been nothing like I thought it would be. But what I've learned is I've shown myself that I can show up messy. I can show up happy, I can show up in whatever way, and it's enough. It's perfect. And I see what it means to actually sit in the power. Sitting in the powers of practice that many psychics and mediums do is their bread and butter, their baseline practice to connect with the all that is, to remember who you truly are. And you you know it. I knew it. I did it, but I didn't know it till this year. This year is the year. I see what it means to actually sit in the power while holding the clear awareness that I'm very much in progress, and I don't know what I don't know, and that will never change, and it's a good thing. And I've been able to do it all because of the soul-level support that I've had. Soul sisters calling me at exactly the time I need them most. I mean, I don't get surprised anymore, but it's it's still delightful. Business mentors and people in the work with me every step of the way, people who get it, signs and magic and conversations and spirit behind the scenes. It this year has not been easy at all. But I have felt protected and guided every step of the way, every step. Not to say I didn't have my crash house, like I've mentioned before in the beginning of the year, but even in the depths of that, I have the foundation that I am guided and protected at all times. This past Friday, we wrapped up Lighthouse with our bonus closing circle, and it was absolutely beautiful to see, hear, feel, and know just how perfect the divine timing of all of it was, and how the experience was exactly what we all needed, me included. I could not have gotten through the last, what was it, seven weeks, a little bit over seven weeks, without the consistency of that group, showing up for that group, teaching and channeling for them, also was perfect and exactly what I needed. So, what a beautiful give and receive cycle that is. Hold the vision of people opening their hearts and their minds to things they've never been able to see or understand before. Hold the vision that if you're listening to this podcast, you're here to hold the energetic grid of light, just like the Han Moon that magically, coincidentally, I don't believe in coincidences came out this summer to show everybody what it means to hold the energy to connect with each other and know that your presence, your energy, your courage, your intention, and your actions, your words are being used to create a beautiful future. Because by doing all of that, by being all of that, you are creating a beautiful present. So for my birthday this week, go download the highest timeline meditation for free. The code will be in the show notes. It will be good for the rest of this week. And if you want to join us for the next round of Lighthouse, so you can join our network of light workers who are committed to staying plugged all the way fucking to the 3D, make sure you're on the priority list. I'm gonna do one more round before the end of the year, and knowing how to work with this energy is absolutely crucial. And knowing your why and understanding how you fit into this cosmic relay race, it's so important. You are here right now, and that is everything. What a cause to celebrate! Happy freaking birthday to me. Oh my god, you want to know what I just realized? I was gonna say scared, shitless, but still showing up from the beginning about myself. Words are such a window into energy. And this is one of the things I talk about in Lighthouse, but listen, scared, shitless, but still showing up from the beginning. When I was born, I was meta to children's hospital here in LA for emergency surgery, the first of a few stays in the NICU. I had an intestinal obstruction, literally scared shitless. Wow. Wow. Yeah, well, there you go. Words. Ah wow. So on that note, uh hard pivot. This week for my birthday, I'd love for you to celebrate that you're here with me. I mean, bonus points if you do something that makes you be scared shitless, but that you really want to do anyway. I want you to feel alive. Tell your body that you're here, tell the world that you're here. Do something that breaks up the routine, something that interrupts the pattern, reconnects you with love and wonder and awe and connection and adventure. Do something that celebrates the fact that you are alive and you're here, and that's not a forever thing. And because I celebrate my birthday for the entire month, I'd love for you to tag me when you do this special thing for my birthday, any any part of this month. Tag me. I want to see how you're living your life. And because it's spooky season, why don't you even invite your loved ones who died to go on all these adventures with you? I mean, literally, it doesn't even have to be anything huge or lavish. All of these experiences are something that people in spirit wish they could do. And you're here. You get to do so much. The future isn't set in stone, and it's waiting to see what you're gonna do next. My kids are off for the entire week of my birthday, so I will be taking this week off and lining up some good stuff for when I come back. So sit tight, go live your life, go do things, and report back. Okay. See you later. Thank you for listening to Soul Level Human.
