Episode 181 I Let Go of My Old Identity and Everything Changed with Vanessa SoulMy life changed fast in 2026—and none of it was part of the original plan. In this personal episode of the Power & Purpose Podcast, I share how releasing an old identity opened the door to becoming a private school CEO, working in AI, completing Bufo and Kambo facilitator training, and stepping into a much bigger mission. We're talking identity, purpose, conscious leadership, plant medicine, education, personal transformation, and what happens when you finally allow yourself to outgrow who you used to be.TIMESTAMPS00:00 — The New Paradigm & Who Is Vanessa Soul Now?08:50 — Letting Go of My Old Identity14:45 — AI, Technology & Becoming a Private School CEO27:26 — My Bufo & Kambo Facilitator Training33:24 — The Bigger Mission & What Comes NextConnect with meWebsite https://vanessasoul.com/theempireInstagram https://www.instagram.com/vanessaasoul/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/vanessa.spiva.9Podcast https://podcast.ausha.co/power-and-purpose-podcastListen to the Power and Purpose Podcast:

What if the wisdom you keep searching for is already yours?Mari Wuellner did what many of us were taught to do: work hard, build the business, earn the recognition, care for the family, and keep moving. From the outside, her life looked successful. From the inside, she was operating on a blueprint that no longer felt like her own.After a panic attack forced her to slow down, Mari began redefining success around freedom, joy, rest, and choices she could genuinely claim as hers. That journey eventually took her back to Florence, where she had lived as a pregnant 20-year-old during one of the hardest seasons of her life.Mari returned with the journal she had kept all those years ago. She planned to write back to her younger self with the wisdom of experience. Instead, she discovered that the young woman she had been still carried the hope her present-day self needed.In this conversation, Kimberly and Mari explore:How conventional success can quietly become default modeWhy so many of us wait for permission we do not actually needThe difference between outside recognition and inner freedomWhat old journals and earlier versions of ourselves can revealMari's define, design, and demand frameworkWhy an unsuccessful experiment is information, not an indictmentHow to build work around life instead of sacrificing life to workMari is an entrepreneur, storyteller, life coach, and founder of The Crew Coaching Collective.

We like to believe that compassion comes naturally. Yet when someone we work with experiences unimaginable loss, many of us freeze. We worry about saying the wrong thing, crossing a boundary, or making an already painful situation worse. So we say less, do less, and hope time will somehow fill the silence.Amy's conversation with Matthew Efird challenges that instinct with extraordinary honesty. After losing his son, Noah, to a terminal trisomy 13 diagnosis, Matthew discovered that the moments which stayed with him weren't defined by perfect words. They were shaped by people who showed up, quietly lifted burdens he couldn't carry alone, and created space for his family to grieve without asking them to manage everyone else's needs. What emerged from that experience is not just a personal story. It is a practical philosophy for building workplaces where empathy becomes something people experience, not something leaders simply talk about.Rather than treating grief as something that belongs outside the office, this conversation invites us to rethink what leadership looks like when life inevitably interrupts work. It explores how simple acts of generosity can transform culture, why the strongest leaders resist the urge to fix what cannot be fixed, and how organizations earn lasting trust by helping people feel seen when they need it most.Moments That Create Momentum:The Permission Trap: Why asking, "How can I help?" often shifts the emotional burden back onto the person who is already carrying more than they can hold.The Empathy Gap: Matthew reveals why leaders don't fail because they don't care. They fail because discomfort convinces them that silence is safer than showing up.The Culture Stress Test: Anyone can talk about values during business as usual. The true culture of an organization is revealed by how it responds when someone's life falls apart.The Invisible Load: The smallest daily responsibilities become overwhelming during grief. Matthew explains why removing one burden often matters more than offering a hundred comforting words.The Time Investment Principle: After holding his son through his final breath, Matthew stopped measuring time by productivity and started measuring it by presence, changing the way he leads both work and life.About the Guest:Matthew Efird is a grieving father, a husband, and a leader who has learned that true strength is not found in self-sufficiency but in a desperate need for a Savior. An honors graduate of The University of Georgia, Matthew and his high school sweetheart, Hannah, live in Jackson County, where they manage Mosquito Joe and Lighting Pros. Matthew is the host of the Pillars of Purpose Podcast, where he explores living a life of purpose in faith, family, and business.Following the Trisomy 13 diagnosis and passing of their second son, Noah, Matthew felt an intense calling to share their raw journey. He is the bestselling author of Even Though, We Will. He travels the country speaking to audiences and consulting with businesses on the transformational impact of Emphathetic Leadership within an organization.He and his wife are the founders of Even Though, We Will, an organization dedicated to providing “Arks” of practical support and care packages to families navigating the devastating waters of a terminal diagnosis. Matthew is the proud father of four amazing boys: three who fill his home with wild joy and one who awaits him in the presence of their Savior.https://eventhoughwewill.comhttps://matthewefird.comAbout Amy:Amy Lynn Durham, known by her clients as the Corporate Mystic, is the founder of the Executive Coaching Firm, Create Magic At Work®, where they help leaders build workplaces rooted in creativity, collaboration, and fulfillment.

Subscribe on your favorite podcast platform to get notified. Apple Podcasts Spotify Podbean Our Website Psalm 46 + Hannah Coulter by Wendell Berry In a world that rarely slows down, God invites us to be still. In this first season of Be Still: A Walking with Purpose Podcast, Lisa Brenninkmeyer explores six Scriptures that teach us how to stop striving, quiet our hearts, and trust Him in the middle of real life. Through the wisdom of the Bible and the companionship of great books, we'll discover how God gently holds us steady and invites us to be still—right where we are. Today we're going to slow down together with one of the most beloved verses in all of Scripture: “Be still, and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10) We often picture this verse as soft and peaceful—but Psalm 46 was written in the middle of chaos. Mountains fall. Waters roar. Nations rage. And right there, God says: Be still. Stillness isn't the absence of trouble. It's the decision to trust God in the middle of it. In this episode, Lisa reflects on Psalm 46 alongside Wendell Berry's novel Hannah Coulter, a quiet story about one woman's faithful life of loving her family, tending her home, and staying rooted in one place. Together, Scripture and story remind us that holiness is often hidden in the ordinary. You don't have to hold the world together. You don't have to chase a bigger life. God is already present in the one you've been given. In this episode, we explore: What “be still” really means in Hebrew (stop striving, release your grip) Why stillness is trust, not passivity Wendell Berry's vision of “membership” and belonging The sacredness of ordinary, everyday faithfulness How Mary at Jesus' feet (Luke 10) models the same posture of presence Journaling Questions Where in my life am I striving or gripping tightly — and how might God be inviting me to release control and trust Him instead? What ordinary people or places has God already entrusted to me that I'm being called to love more faithfully this week? Key Scripture Psalm 46:10. Be still, and know that I am God.

What happens when the part of you that's been running your life refuses to let go? In this deeply personal solo episode, I share my third Bufo experience, the powerful ego death that unfolded, and the surprising realization that I had been resisting this medicine for nearly three years because I was afraid of my own power. We explore survival mode, heart-mind coherence, intuition, Kundalini energy, spiritual evolution, and the profound difference between living from fear versus living from alignment. This conversation isn't about promoting medicine—it's about sharing a personal experience and the insights that emerged from it. If you've ever felt disconnected from yourself, stuck in survival mode, or sensed that a more authentic version of you is trying to emerge, this episode may resonate deeply. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Episode Preview 00:43 Why I Felt Called Back to Bufo After 3 Years 03:13 "I'm Scared of How Powerful I Could Be" 07:42 The Heart-Mind Disconnection That Changed Everything 11:20 My Intense Ego Death Experience 13:03 What Happens to the Brain During Bufo 16:29 Survival Mode vs Soul Alignment 20:03 The Massive Emotional & Energetic Release 23:21 Kundalini Activation & Reclaiming My Power 25:57 Why My Relationship with Western Astrology Is Changing 27:52 Final Reflections & Integration

To premiere Season 2 of the Humans of Purpose Podcast, Mel sits down with Josh Ross from Humanitix. Josh Ross walked away from a hedge fund partnership at 26, turned down a lucrative career, and co-founded one of Australia's most radical companies with his best friend. Humanitix is an online event ticketing platform with one extraordinary difference: 100% of profits from booking fees go directly to charity. Not some. All of it. To date, they've donated over $20 million to education programs, health initiatives, environmental causes and indigenous affairs around the world. In this conversation, Mel sits down with Josh to talk about what it actually takes to leave behind a version of success the whole world recognises — and build something the world genuinely needs. They explore the pact Josh made with his co-founder on a hiking trip in Sri Lanka that changed the direction of both their lives, what it means to challenge the conventional wisdom that business and social good can't coexist, and why the most powerful lever for change might just be the booking fee on your next event ticket. This one is for anyone who has ever felt the pull of a more purposeful life and wondered whether it was actually possible.

Hope for Right Now Podcast – Desert Bloom, A Lenten Journey: Easter: New Life While Walking with Purpose Founder Lisa takes time to write our next women's Bible study, Laura Phelps welcomes guest Caitlin Bean to the Hope for Right Now podcast for a seven-week series: Desert Bloom, A Lenten Journey. Lent is a time of sacrifice, preparation, and spiritual waiting—a time to prepare our hearts for Easter through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. For many of us, it has become about exterior performance, a “holy checklist” we begin on Ash Wednesday and struggle to sustain for 40 days. And preparation? Who has time for that? We are exhausted—after all, it was just Christmas! If this is how your heart feels at the start of Lent, this series is for you—offering practical encouragement, Scripture reflections, and simple ways to experience a more meaningful, peace-filled Lent. In today's final episode on Hope for Right Now, Laura and Caitlin rejoice in the Easter season and talk about all things new life, new blooms, and the new paths ahead! He is risen! Alleluia! Alleluia! Open your Heart to our key Scripture. Isaiah 58:11: Then the Lord will guide you always and satisfy your thirst in parched places, will give strength to your bones, and you shall be like a watered garden, like a flowing spring whose waters never fail. Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode. Isaiah 45:8: You heavens above, rain down my righteousness; let the clouds shower it down. Let the earth open wide, let salvation spring up, let righteousness flourish with it; I, the Lord, have created it. (NIV) Genesis 3:19: You are dust, and to dust you shall return. 1 Corinthians 15:55–58: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O death, where is thy victory O death, where is thy sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. Revelation 21:4: He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away. Romans 6:6: We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the sinful body might be destroyed, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin. 2 Corinthians 1:3–5: Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. Invite Him in with this episode's questions for reflection. Which phase of the journey challenged you most? Where were you most surprised by joy? How has God transformed your desert into a superbloom? Show mentions.
