If you feel like your life is meaningless and fake, and you’re questioning everything and lost and feeling like you’re going crazy--congrats. You’re in the first stages of spiritual awakening. And here you are to learn more about your experience.

Lyndsay is a leadership coach, energy healer, and author of The Beautiful Un-Becoming: The Ultimate Guide to Life after Spiritual Awakening. She is passionate about empowering people on their spiritual journeys to reconnect with their inner light and wisdom to live an authentic, inspired life.

Quotes to remember: 

“I suddenly was face-to-face with my own mortality.” 

“I was so focused on that goal of financial security because I didn’t have it growing up, that I forgot that we’re actually here to experience life.” 

“Why do you want to wait that long? Why do you feel like you’re not ready now?”

“It’s not just one spiritual awakening and you’re done.” 

“Spirituality is woven into my fiber.” 

“Follow what lights you up because that is your biggest indicator of what you’re here to do in this lifetime.”

  • Society often tells us we need to know what the next step is and what we want, but that’s not how it works

  • If you want to do something exciting, you need to be excited about it--and our childhood reveals clues of it
