Ok so let's rattle some cages, rock some boats and shake some people by the collars to wake up because this one needs to be spoken about. Notice how it's mostly women who are told they are selfish? When you know what is in alignemnet, when you identify your own wants and needs? Isn't that what we are here for? To live OUR lives? And yet the same people who say you are selfish are the ones who are selfish as they have an expectation that you should put THEIR wants, their expectations, their interpretations of how your life should look before their own. Food for thought, right?
Anytime you are getting into worry you are getting into control and you are exisiting in the future. Neither place will bring you the solutiions you are looking for, rather they will keep you attracting more things to worry about! In this episode, discover how to get out of the worry loop and live from a place that actually brings solutions to you.
Absolutely everything that happens in your life is medicine for you to learn, grow and evolve. Listen to this podcast to discover the most recent personal example and how these metaphors also apply to you and your life.
As your grow and veolve throughout life, you will most likely find that the circles around you change. Do you allow this with no resistance or do you create stories about what it means, what others will think of you and so make yourself small to stay in the same circles? It is a beautiful and powerful thing to be supported and understood, exactly where you are. When you grow and change make sure those circles around you are changing too.
This episode follows on from the previous one anout overthinking and living in your head. Another way that shows up as not living in your heart is living in low grade anger. This episode covers what this looks like, how to move from it and practices so you can start living a life more in your heart and more in love.
If you are asking if you are overthinking the short answer is yes! In this episdoe we explore why you are overthinking and how it's not your fault.
If you're like most people who listen to this podcast, you are a light worker and an empath. So sometimes when we are feeling big emotions like fear, it's energy we have absorbed and taken on from the collective, not even our own. In this episode we look at where the fear comes from and how to recognise it. What to do with that fear when we can see where it came from.
How much personal power and energy do you leak by arguing with someone who is so committed to their opinion they will never see your perspective? Use your energy where it can make a difference and allow others to have their own experience of life.
It is ALWAYS about you and your energy. One foot in, one foot out energy will attract exactly that back to you. Consider a laser beam and the fact it's power comes from being focused, scatter the beams = no power. You are exactly the same!
Whatever you have in your life is what you have created. It's exactly what you though was or wasn't possible. So if your life looks pretty mediocre right now, it's because that is what you thought was possible or available to you.
Ever noticed how elders just seem so wise? They get it! Time is finite. All we truly have is now so stop making decisions for the future based on your failures of the past! DO the thing! Ask for the thing! Take action today and co-create with the amazing energies of the Universe.
Everything is constantly moving, nothing is at rest. And that means you too. You are constantly changing so if you don't uplevel everything in your life to align with that new frequesncy everything just feels, well 'off' In this episode we discuss the types of change and what an uplevel might look like for you.
What does alchemy mean to me in a spiritual sense and how it applies to the work I do with my clients.
Natures has seasons of ebbs and flows so why should we be any different?
Often people continue with something that does not really resonate anymore or get distracted by the things other people say they 'should' be doing, especially when it comes to business and creativity. And of course, sometimes is is good to follow other's advice but it is ALWAYS good to follow the path with heart and follow your bliss. Make sure not to become disconnected from that along the way.
This week's episode is mostly a PSA for these challenging times, but also serves as a more nuanced way of looking at the concept of self-care and how to discover the specific "medicine" that we need. This episode of the Aligned Alchemy podcast explores… -Why there's actually nothing to worry about despite these intense solar flaresWhy it's important to move out of the left brain during these challenging times -Why it's perfectly fine if you're not experiencing anything groundbreaking -Why multitasking takes us out of the moment -How to identify what YOU need and how to give that medicine to yourself You've got this. We've got this. We'll find our way through.
Everything you think you know, everything you are accepting as the way it is, might just not be the case. Life is about the being not the doing but so many have it the other way round.
Lessons from nature, this one came from the swallows as they returned for the Spring and Summer.
How many of you from a really young age asked, "What am I doing here?" Like it or not, the fact of the matter is that every single thing about you, YOU chose. Your mom, your dad, your siblings, the color of your skin, your gender, your nationality - you chose to be here and now for a reason, to learn lessons and evolve the way your soul needs to at this moment. And not only do you have your spiritual lineage, you also carry the wisdom and lessons of your ancestry and bloodline here on earth! So, do we come to the planet with a natural ability, or is it more a matter of teaching, practicing, and mastery? And do our children inherit our gifts, too? A word of caution as you ponder this week's Aligned Alchemy Podcast episode on nature vs nurture - you might not like what comes up to the surface under this full moon in Scorpio! Everything is illuminated, bringing the hidden out front and center... I advise you to lean into this energy by allowing hidden or unexplored truths to bubble to the surface. Trust that everything happens for a reason! And do let me know what you discover...
Have you ever fully considered how much your environment impacts you? From your overall geographical environment to the more macro of your home environment.

This episode asks questions for you to explore and tools for you to protect your environment when circumstances change and you need to get things back to your energy asap!
An impromptu episode highlighting the potential and possibilities of the solar eclipse. What are the lessons and medicine it can bring? With another side note to consider that the eclipse is collectively stirring up too.
How many life metaphors are you being given all the time but are not finding the true lesson within them? We often think that signs are completely mundane, ordinary things (which they are, to the layperson). However, every sign is interlaced with magic and ancient wisdom containing beautiful lessons and messages. IF and only IF you choose to see them... If you don't, it's easy to think you're just moving through life on a mundane hamster wheel. Once we break free from this illusion, we realize that magic is interwoven into every single thing...making every encounter meaningful.
Everyone has a natural gift. Something that comes so easily and naturally to you that you may not even consider it a gift. Are you allowing that to be seen? How would you become aware of it in the first place? https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Have you heard of the "Witch Wound?" It goes all the way back to the history of how witches, healers, herbalists, midwives, etc. were persecuted, hunted, and murdered in the most horrific of ways. This gruesome point in time has been held as trauma in our bodies for hundreds of years, and is the root of why spiritualists and mystics avoid standing out... It's for the sake of survival. It's for the sake of being accepted and not rejected from the community. So many of us still hold the subconscious belief that when we share our spiritual gifts, we'll be shamed or ridiculed. And, while this no longer means certain death, it does often result in a social "death." However, hiding our true selves results in something far worse than social death - it results in the shaming and shunning of ourselves. Trust that your authenticity is what makes you so profoundly beautiful. I would love to see a world where we can all show who we are… This episode of the Aligned Alchemy podcast explores… - A deeply personal childhood experience that I was told never to share outside of the home - Why my mom called herself a "secret hippie" - One of my most pivotal experiences with a mentor that changed everything - Why we feel the need to blend in - What happens when you allow yourself to be seen Also, have you heard?! There is a powerful portal opening next week and I want to make sure you are able to make the absolute most of this opportunity. So, I am here to invite you to stop working with the made up New Year you've been lied to about and start working with nature's REAL New Year for phenomenal change. Join me on March 19th at 12:00pm PT for this super potent Equinox event I am hosting where you will discover: - The reason you've been lied to your whole life - A deeper understanding of what makes you tick - A connection to the ancestors and ancient ones and the systems they used - - History of the Equinox and its importance in many civilizations - Your best plan of action for contentment, harmony and success - Rituals and tools to help amplify the Equinox energy Sign up for FREE right here! https://www.ichelfrancis.com/the-real-new-year-equinox-event https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Finding a community - a group of people who get you, a place where you feel safe, seen, and heard - is absolutely essential to how far, how fast, and how deeply you will go in your journey. Many people (especially women) don't feel safe or supported to share their true, authentic self with their local communities… In fact, many women who are drawn to join my circles tend to have throat chakra issues due to their struggles trying to express themselves without fear of judgment from their peers. It's amazing the magic a supportive community can weave around you, inspiring you to shine your light so that you can, in turn, light the way for others. This episode of the Aligned Alchemy podcast explores… The stories we're told (and believe) that prevent us from shining our light Why having a guide is just one part of the journey How to use your “training wheels” to learn how to prepare for the bigger world Why you're never truly alone Juicy teasers and a special invite! As mentioned in the episode, you can find out more about my Goddess Moon Circle here: https://www.ichelfrancis.com/thegoddessmooncircle And learn more about the Scotland Summer Solstice retreat here: https://www.ichelfrancis.com/retreat
This is a juicy one with an intentionally provocative title! Because when you think you are only coming from a place of love for wanting to help someone (especially those closest to us) there is actually something else entirely that can be at play. All of this comes from my own personal experiences of wanting to help people and ultimately what that would cost myself.

This episode goes into something which is more often than not modelled to us in society - that the more you do and what you do is what gives you your worth and makes you valuable. Then what do you do when that title changes or is taken from you? Who are you then? How much exactly do you have to do to feel worthy and what would happen if you stopped doing? All this and more in a deep dive into this very commonly experienced notion that your worth is somehow linked to your ability to do! It's not true! https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Have you ever given thought to if you have a dominant or preferred element that you connect with and what that could open up for you? In this episode, we explore what that looks like, with examples, and you may find after listening that you naturally work with an element, water for example, and experiment with how you can deepen and work with that connection. https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
You know your time on the planet is limited, but you don't really get it. If you did, you would wake up and live differently tomorrow. Tomorow is promised to no-one, and yet, if you're like most people, you are still delaying making decisions, choices and putting off the things you really want to do because you think you know the timeline that none of us do. Life is short, fleeting and incrdeibly beautiful if you see it for all it is in the moment. What would you change tomorrow if you truly, truly knew this reality for yourself? https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
As a follow on from Episode 48, this episode goes deeper into the energetics of how we manifest using language and frequency. Your words have resonance. The words you choose create FEELING in you and that is what emits your frequency to the Universe. So yes, your choice of words are important, from a frequency point of view on where it places your attention, on what are you really saying? Are you asking for more abundance or more lack? It can be really subtle changes that make some pretty astounding changes, so in this episode, it goes into the tweaks and changes and even HEARING the languaging that you may not even know you are currently speaking. https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
There are generally 2 schools of thought when it comes to mainfesting, however both often miss an imperative step, which when you add this, is where the magic really starts to happen. In this episode, Ichel brings you a real life example of manifesting the seemingly impossible for bringing everything together for her in person retreat in the Highlands of Scotland in 2023. She gives the exact process she used and how you can apply it to anything that you are creating in life right now. The Scotland Retreat is happening again in 2024 and now open for spots!

What does connection mean to you? Are you a surface level surfer or a deep dive connector? To be connected is to be part of something. Do you feel part of something or are your feeling more and more disconnected? Let's deep dive into connection! https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Ever wonder why you always seems to be working from just enough rather than having an abundance of money in your life? In this episode we explore what wealth and success mean specifically to you and if the stories you currently hold could be the very thing that block you from receiving more. https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Nothing actually changes from Dec 31st to Jan 1st. What if you explored working from a new beginning that worked in tune with you, nature and her cycles rather than some Gregorian calender that throws us off our natural rythyms? In this episode we explore the alternatioves and if you do really want to make Jan 1st your new start, a word of caution and how you can be best placed for your own success. https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Is the title of the episode incorrect? Surely it is meant to be the gift of giving? Yes and no! In this epiosde we look at the real reasons behind why you might be stuck in giving mode AND the shocking repurcussions of what happens when you don't receive. https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis

In this epiosde we explore exactly the reasons why it is so hard and what you can do to make your next spiritual jump easy, painfree and quick! https://linktr.ee/ichelfrancis
Whatever you are looking for, you will find. This episode goes hand in hand with previous episode 40 - what gets your attention. It is more on the energetics of how our Universe works, that when you seek out magic in your life, you will find it. And when you can be in that state of child like wonder and awe, gratitude for the pure magic that surrounds use every day in nature on this planet, that state, will attract magic back to you. Most of my greatest manifestations in life have come after totally surrendering to being in this joyful place of SEEING and inviting in more magic. This episode explores what magic might look like for you and an invitation to seek it out from this very moment. What you seek is seeking you. This episode was brought to you and inspired by snowy Northern Lights and a golden moon rise! https://www.instagram.com/ichelfrancis https://www.ichelfrancis.com
This one of the money stories that kept me blocked for so long! That somehow being spiritual equated to living a life of punishment and shouldn't I get enough from just being spiritual? This episode is for you if you believe that wealth is not available to you for whatever story you have created around it. Money is energy and you can choose to be comforatble attracting it or not. You get to choose 100's of times a day what you place your attention on. Whatever that is, your energy has to follow and flow there. In this episode, we go deep into the profound difference mastering this ancient wisdom of where you place your focus and what that will mean to you. https://www.instagram.com/ichelfrancis https://www.ichelfrancis.com

The more you try to figure out what your lesson is the more it will run from you. Just the act of wanting life to be exactly a ceratin way actually closes doors of possibility that were open to you. Just let go of the attachments you have to how things should look. There is no other way. https://www.instagram.com/ichelfrancis https://www.ichelfrancis.com
It is easy for your mouth to say one thing and your actions another but are you aware of what creates that? When someone (or even yourself) says they are one thing but everything the person is showing you is the absolute contrary. Are they lying on purpose? Or is something else going on under the surface that they may have a blind spot with and be unable to see? In this episode, Ichel talks about self deception, cognitive dissonance and the work it takes to remove all of the stories in order to come back to the true you. https://www.instagram.com/ichelfrancis https://www.ichelfrancis.com/
When you can begin to truly see the unique gift that you are to the Universe, it starts to become less about you and more about who you can help. No-one else can say it like you, bring it like you, deliver it with your energy. You are the only you that will ever be. Discover what that really means and what to do with it inside this episode.

When you live a deeply grateful life, does it ever mean that you abandon your own hopes and dreams, wants and aspirations because it is easier just to go along with others than to sit in the discomfort of first identifying what you actually want and then even more painful, knowing that you won't go after it? This episode explores more of gratitude vs settling. Join the waitlist for the Goddess Moon Circle Connect with me on Instagram
When faced with the discomfort that making decisions can bring, you may, like I did, think it's safer just to stay still and not move in any direction. Just don't make any choice at all. When you begin to see that not doing anything is also actually making the choice to not do anything, you can begin to see that you are allowing and encouraging your own helplessness and feeling like you are stuck. Because change is always coming, no matter what choice you make, chossing to stay still is not possible when everything else moves past you, you are actually going backwards. So you can choose to redefine what it means to make different choices and accept change and even some chaos as you move! Join the waitlist for the Goddess Moon Circle Connect with me on Instagram
In this episode, Ichel brings you powerful personal examples of the lessons learned when it comes to saving things or putting off things to a later date.

This is a powerful epsiode, that will help you to look at your every day life in a completely different way. Join the waitlist for the Goddess Moon Circle Connect with me on Instagram
