Rachel shares her personal journey of sobriety from alcohol, highlighting that even after seven years, she continues to uncover patterns that no longer serve her.

This spiritual partnership aids in nurturing one's soul, allowing for a life that honors intuition, energy, and inner truth. By establishing new rituals and rhythms that support the soul, individuals can gradually release the old programming and fears that have hindered their growth. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own lives, identifying behaviors that serve as protection but no longer benefit them. Rev.
Rachel proposes a challenge to the community: share and discuss these behaviors within the Recover Your Soul Facebook group, fostering a collective healing experience.
