Transcript

[00:00:00] Hello, it's me. Or should I say it's me again? This episode was recorded as a quick introduction to the podcast. With Pluto about to enter Aquarius and less than 24 hours. And man, I went on a journey, something channeled through me. This could have been a dead dock and we went on a ride. We went on an adventure together. So I hope you enjoy this slightly longer than typical solo podcast. I officially introduced the brand. On episode eight, nine, whatever this is, we get to do what we want. 

And talk a little bit more about the new direction. It's a little bit further on in the podcast. I couldn't do this as episode one. He would drown anybody. It is a deep dive and a lot of stuff. And I mentioned. The new brand, which is aligned to Alchemist. If you've been with me prior, you know, that was the name of the podcast. There is a reason for that switch. 

And I share a little bit more about that, but essentially what you need [00:01:00] to know is. Alchemy is death and rebirth transmutation transformation. And alchemy and shedding. Is associated with Pluto. Which represents our deep soul purpose, our deep soul desire, our deep life force energy. And it enters Aquarius tomorrow for the final time. 

This hasn't happened since the late 17 hundreds. If you don't live under a spiritual rock, this has been in your social media feeds. And I guess that's what wanted to come through 

. So I'm going to let you know, before we get into the podcast, about a once in a lifetime class, it's called awakening, primal energy. Pluto we'll be in Aquarius until 2044. So this class is $44. 

It's really about life force, energy, shedding, and transmutation, really shutting the past to step into the new future that's coming in 2025. , it's going to be on 12 seven. It will be recorded [00:02:00] for those who sign up. 

So you don't have to attend live. And those who sign up by 1125. We'll be entered into a drawing to have their chart use. As a mini example in class, I'm going to pick two folks. My private astrology work is going to be very limited. It's going to go up in price. I don't do anything at a price point like this, and I never will. 

Again, if you've been in my world for a while, you know, this is a place you want to be sales page is going to be in the show notes to tell you everything. You want to know the high side, the low side, how we going to use our life force energy to step into a whole new future? 

Music

This podcast is for those who are curious, you're open minded, you're open to the unseen. Even if you play in the practical realm, you are looking to learn from wisdom gained through real experience. You're balancing your spiritual growth with real life responsibilities. And you're in a period of [00:03:00] personal transformation, either in your job, your life, your career, your business, your body, or all of the above

you might be navigating a pivot in life. And you are looking for guidance on how to navigate that internal compass and are seeking success beyond just conventional metrics. And more importantly, the conventional personal development surface level shit that's out there generic and frankly is not working.

You might struggle with fear, procrastination, self doubt, self sabotage, overwhelm, and you are excited by using the spirit realm, the earth realm, your body. And your intuition to support you on that journey. You know that your body's wisdom as well as your connection to the spirit realm, your individual connection to your guides is the best way to do that.

And you also know that your past [00:04:00] does not determine your future, but you're going to have to take action in today. in present reality to make things happen. You can take that action in line with your intuition, you can take that action in line with divine timing, and you can take that action in line with your sacral response, but you've got to take There's no spiritual bypass on this podcast.

The first episode, I gave you a quick five minute introduction into what a sacral being is in case you are not at all familiar with human design. And I've got a channel called Aligned Alchemist, a YouTube channel, and that's always going to be listed in the footer of every episode. And there's more 101 content and basic content there.

There have been many iterations of this podcast that those who've been around for a while have seen and that's just the nature of alchemy. Season one is very heavily focused on being human design focused. I was originally going to do a solely human design podcast and I've changed my mind. But [00:05:00] in all of the podcasts, there is a sun on the cover and that has never changed and all of the name changes.

That sun has never changed. And that's because in human design, astrology, and pretty much all other systems, there's The sun represents our purpose. What are we really here to do in this lifetime? And what is the role and the way that we're doing that? How are we carrying that out on a day to day basis?

If you're a spiritual entrepreneur, that's essentially your positioning. Your positioning is already built into your astrological chart and your human design chart, which is some of the things that I work on with people. I'm a 5'1 that's my profile line.

 And so the 5'1 is the heretical messenger. The visionary resource, the practical investigator, they build a solid foundation through thousands of hours of analysis and research in everything and their own trial and error experiments depending on [00:06:00] their other lines.

I've got a majority of three lines, which is trial and error. And then they universalize those solutions to the masses, in quotes. Masses just means people beyond their immediate network. And so that's what I'm here to do. And universalize means that I'm going to be weaving together many different tools and modalities but we create practical solutions based on what we actually know.

And I have a YouTube video where I talk about the profile lines as well. But profile gives you a frame, the character through which we play out our soul's mission. And at the end of the day, this podcast is gears for those who want to use this information. You want to get what you want.

You want to live a life of freedom and you want to do things your way. Human design is like a lens through which I put through a lot of different other types of information. And the podcast is right now geared for sacral beings. We are 70 percent of the population, the vast majority. And , I [00:07:00] believe without actually having done the census, I believe we're the vast majority of people who are not coaches, healers, guides exclusively.

especially in the business realm. In human design, there's something known as variables. It's at the top of the chart. And that's a whole other enchilada of a topic. But we have a one of the arrows is called the motivation arrow. And it is what are you motivated by? It colors the rest of your body graph.

And mine is need variable. I am inherently motivated by what is needed. And I just can't launch another human design podcast because I don't think another human design podcast is needed. There are no shortage of different voices and places of experience and all that and everyone's welcome to do what they want to do.

But I have no motivation or drive to do that at all. And so I'm not going to be the one spending my time creating that. I find human [00:08:00] design incredibly accurate and I use it as one of my many tools as I blend the practical and the mystical.

And in line with that, the podcast is geared towards people who want to use this stuff. It's practical tips, it's knowledge, it's stories, but it's not one on one content. It's not like I'm going to teach you human design on a podcast. That's a nice way to kind of stay stuck and just be in learning mode.

There podcasts that have the basics and they teach that for years. And some of these podcasts have episodes twice a week. That should give you an idea of how dense this topic is. And human design an embodied system. It's not astrology. Astrology is more of a. mental system. That's where I started and it really spoke to me and it still speaks to me.

 I still consider myself as an astrologer, even though that's not the front door of my [00:09:00] brand. . It's completely separate from human design. People who call human design the new astrology, that's bullshit. They don't actually know astrology. Human design is built off of what's already there. foundational elements of astrology as one of its four pillars, but astrology is its own system and it's much more Mental it's a lot of math and it's a lot of patterns and that's what I originally Kind of excited me about that and human design is a lot of patterns and math as well it is a body system and you utilize it to make decisions and navigate and that's a Kind of like the most important in quotes piece of it You But you could actually use none of that and just use a blueprint of your superpowers and your channels and your gates and your line placements and your arrows and create a business based off of that easily.

I know that's what other people are going to tell you, but that's been my experience because actually my experience and maybe I'll do another episode where I talk [00:10:00] about my journey with human design. I'm not ready for that episode yet. Is I adopted all of the cerebral aspects of it first, because that's what spoke to me.

That's how I knew it was accurate, because it took me a very, very long time to get tuned in and tapped into the body wisdom piece, and I'm still learning that, and I'm still doing that. There are people that say that you cannot teach human design until you're 100 percent deconditioned, you've gone on your seven year deconditioned journey.

That's just utter bullshit. What do you want me to come back to in like three years when I'm completely out of touch with how other people are navigating life and be like, well, this is how you need to do. Sacral head and say, woo, and then it's going to give you a noise. And then you're going to go in this direction.

I'm not there. And I'm being very transparent that I'm not there. So if you identify with that, you're not alone. It's a complex world we live in. And I utilize so many other tools. I utilize my intuition. . I utilize my divine guides. Sign synchronicities, omens, crystals, you name it, I'm into it.

And it's all part of the bigger matrix [00:11:00] of how we as humans are navigating the unseen, right? We're navigating the unknown. The future. We don't know what the future holds, we can try to do it in a way where we're moving in the right direction. And that's what this podcast is about.

I'm not a business coach. This is a podcast about personal development mindset and you know, there's some layers of entrepreneurship as well through it. It's for people who, if you're building a business, creating on the side, you're, you're probably doing something different if you're listening to this podcast.

That's who this is for. You're doing something different and you want to be tuned into your north node and the spirit realm as you do it. , You want to work smarter, not harder. And what is working smarter, not harder? It's working with energy. 

That's what this podcast is geared towards. It's practical tips, it's knowledge, it's stories. , whatever to help you on your way and hopefully showcasing you stuff in a way. That. [00:12:00] These useful and. . And from a personal perspective and how I want to build my brand, I'm not a solely human design informed strategist. I am a human design expert. I've been in my experiment for four years. 

I've taken a lot of training on that formal mentorship in it, but I know a lot of other stuff as well, and I'm not building my brand all around human design.

 The way that I host my podcast now. I have a special feature. That's a text me feature. You'll see that in all of the show notes. You can use that to text me in any way you want phone, et cetera, I will get that. I cannot respond and I have no information other than what you share about who you are, your name, your phone, whatever you can ask me questions, 

if you ever have anything you want to ask? Good feedback, et cetera. Feel free to do that. There. And let's talk a little bit about my background. 

Who am I? Because I won't be sharing this that much in future episodes. I don't find that interesting. But I also want to give you some context as to who. You know, the brand is and who I am.

[00:13:00] And so who am I? Who is the Aligned Alchemist? My brand is varied or all over the place or impressive depending on your frame of reference. I have an Ivy League engineering degree from Cornell University in applied mathematical engineering, which is essentially optimization. I have an MBA from the university in Michigan in marketing and corporate strategy.

specializing in brand management. I got that about 20 years ago, over 20 years ago, and I've been in the marketing, advertising, or market research world for a long time. Working with the biggest brands you can imagine, Silicon Valley, New York City, you know, London, et cetera, type A, and been an entrepreneur for 13 years at the time of this recording.

I had two prior six figure businesses. One of them was a supplement line. It was a patented first to market Prebiotic probiotic gut health line. It was the first shelf stable product that had proven clinicals for the gut brain access , you know the microbiome and the gut brain Nobody was talking about [00:14:00] that About nine years ago when I formulated that and so I'm a bit of an innovator in the space and didn't know that Didn't really know that until I learned and understood my Hume design and I didn't trust myself.

I didn't believe in myself. And I let that dream go because I thought since nobody else was doing it that I didn't know what I was talking about. I've learned since then, although it's a journey. And I also had a market research agency. So one was a B2C product line and the second was a B2B service business.

And that was a branding and market research agency for huge brands. And then I've had a couple of other projects along the way. They sound a little bit all over the place, but I can assure you that each of these were stepping stones into different entrepreneurial things I did. And that's kind of how it works, right?

So I had an import export business. If you know what that is, if you knew the gold rush was of Amazon FBA and I had products in the bath industry and a beard line, all that. Huge, [00:15:00] huge passion for holistic wellness and always had that. So I was a health coach. I have a deep background in wellness.

I have a master's in nutrition and functional medicine, and I'm a certified mind body health coach. Lifelong health nut and very much interested in earth practices and the intersection of mind body spirit. And now I'm actually really interested in mind body body, spirit, and money and the connection between all four of those things.

I've been a spiritualist for at least a decade. We can call it a decade, but I started getting into astrology formally and neurolinguistic programming, NLP, which is kind of a, you know, it's a modality that people use to reprogram beliefs. I got into that about a decade ago. So also family constellation work, subliminal work.

 Subconscious work, intuition stuff, I've been formally trained or mentored in many things for a very long time. And personally, I am closing in on my Chiron [00:16:00] return, which means I'm not quite 50, but I'm very close to having lived on earth for close to half a century. In terms of my vibe, I am what you see is what you get.

I am a bridge between the practical and the mystical, like I said in episode one. And you're never going to see me advertising a 25, 000 mastermind where you can be in my energy and manifest all your desires and a bunch of nonsense. You know, the, the businesses I built while not being, you know, like I said, I'm not the, the next Alex Hermosi, they were six figure solid businesses and they weren't just like four people.

Came to a 25, 000 mastermind. They were consumer goods businesses with manufacturing and fulfillment and P& L management and real shit. And I say that just because I've been in the business world for a long time, long before it became a lot of nonsense on social media, coaches selling a dream, a lot of people teaching, coaching or selling coaches, and they've not actually done anything themselves.

They're just great [00:17:00] marketers. . So I'm just not that person, I actually have a real background in this stuff and I'm not saying close your eyes and, manifest and the world's gonna appear in front of your eyes. That's not what I mean by manifestation and I get into that in further content.

 I swear I put an explicit reading on all of my podcasts so that if you travel with children or, you know, the way I speak is sensitive to your ears. I don't talk about religion or politics on this podcast. I'm not personally religious in the traditional way, especially in any kind of Western religion that is a control structure.

I see it as brainwashing and that's what I believe at the end of the day. If you are open to the unseen and you're, Already listening to this podcast, then I don't have to explain that to you, 

 This podcast is the intersection of new paradigm spirituality and new paradigm business. And what the heck does that mean? , it means that I'm not trying to share that I'm a guru of anything. I consider myself a guide, an advisor. I'm not coming out here with expert [00:18:00] positioning regardless of all the stuff I've done where I could do that.

I'm not doing that. I am saying that I'm a guide and I am a spiritual being having a human experience. And I share that background so that you can separate the wheat from the chaff, , right? People who speak a bunch of air, but they have no experience and why wouldn't I share that background with you in a, such a cluttered field, but I only share those credentials so you understand a little bit more about me and how I communicate and why I communicate the way I do and why I might weave together patterns between things that other people might not, and you know, I've been told I sound like an engineer.

So maybe you hear that, maybe you don't, , maybe I've got that personality in me. And like I said, I'm on this journey with you, this snapshot in time. Is me building this, me building this brand, me building this podcast, me building this audience, and I'm going through a personal reinvention myself.

So I'm not saying I'm perfect and I'm just on the journey with you and sharing things along the way. I do consider myself an expert in all the stuff I've learned [00:19:00] and I've learned it for a very long time and so I do have a lot to share with you, but I'll also be sharing things I'm going through and things that have worked for me and hopefully it's useful to you.

I would like this to be kind of a giant fireplace. We're sitting around, we're sharing stories. We're sharing thoughts. They're going to be guests on this podcast as well. That's coming in season two. And at the end of the episode, I'm going to mention the sign of Aries, which is an astrological sign associated with cardinal fire.

It's initiatory. It's gets the party started. It's a fire. And that's not by coincidence. So if you think about it, we're sitting around the fire, we're supporting each other. We're telling stories and that's gotten lost in the era of social media and everything online. And, you know, during one of the many relaunches and rebrandings of this podcast, which happened because I was going through an evolution and I didn't know what I wanted to do, I happened to go on a camping trip.

It was with a number of women, and I really got that image of sitting around the [00:20:00] fireplace, sharing stories and telling tales, and that's really been lost in the modern age. So, Hopefully this podcast and podcasts like this are a way for us to gather and feel less alone. The Age of Aquarius really is about virtual connection, and that's where we're headed, but we can still support each other along the way in our own way.

We can still learn from one another, we can share stories and all that stuff, and we all have gifts that we can give one another, and that's a lot of what human design is about. It's about that avatar, right? I have superpowers that you don't have and vice versa, I'll share my lessons. I'll share my past because those are the lessons I've already processed and are on the other side.

And this podcast, like I said, is about documenting the journey and sharing lessons with you, figuring stuff along, out along the way. And to put it in frank terms, fucking around and finding out. 

 I talk about manifestation, I believe in mindset, I believe our thoughts create our reality. And I think there's nothing wrong with that. While I believe in body wisdom, and I believe that the two should work together, [00:21:00] and we shouldn't be making decisions from our mind in that way.

I don't think they are oil and water, and I'm going to have an episode where I talk all about that. , but it's considered a bit of an ugly word to purists, and I'm not a purist. The last thing I'm going to do is create, take a system and make it my whole world.

 my rules for operating. It's a manual. You can take aspects of the manual and you can throw out aspects of the manual. And at the end of the day, it's an interpretive system that has been bastardized in Pop, hd, et cetera. And so, you know, I'll be talking a little bit about that as well.

I have a unique spin I put on things. That's what a five one does. It does , rub people the wrong way sometimes. And that's just what it is. That's me in a nutshell, and that's the podcast in a nutshell. 

 I've studied quantum physics, I believe in crystals, I believe in the subconscious mind, I believe in energetics, I believe in science, I believe in the science of the body, and I also believe that our bodies are evolving in ways that we do not understand scientifically, and I do believe in a lot of the stuff people say about human design aspects of the [00:22:00] body, and we'll talk about that in the episodes as it's relevant, because it does affect life force energy.

At the end of the day, the goal of this podcast. is to be of use to you, of value to you, to say things that I need to be said that aren't being said, and to teach things in a way that I don't think are being taught. You know, that's what I want every time I get on the mic. 

If you had to boil quantum physics down to a nutshell, it's energy. So I believe in energy and I believe that energetically, the content you put out there The authenticity you put out there is going to be received. I think everything's a wavelength. Hopefully you're feeling that vibe and Hopefully, you feel that that's a true desire for me as I evolve.

 And as I'm recording this podcast, we are literally on the edge of Pluto entering Aquarius happening on November 19th, 2024. That will be in play until 2044. That's why that class is 44. And that's why I'm picking two people for the drawing, right?

44, 2044, you get it? Okay. So, , the last time this happened was [00:23:00] 1778, right after the U. S. was formed. And I used to have a podcast called Cosmic Alarm Clock. It was a podcast, it was pure play collective astrology. Collective astrology, if you're not familiar, it talks about the outer planets, Pluto, Neptune, Uranus.

For the most part and those are collective planets because they are generational They're outside the realm of space time reality and they cannot be seen without a telescope So it's less about earth and it's more about what's happening in the unseen realm and how are those forces affecting us?

 And that was my god a deep deep dive I Did free podcast for about two years where I went deep and I talked about society. I talked about politics. I talked about pop culture I talked about personalized astrology. It was a channeled podcast Mostly recorded in the middle of the night.

Hello cosmic alarm clock And that podcast is still up on the players and it's still going to remain on my youtube channel. Albeit hidden So if you look in the videos, you'll find it. It's not the [00:24:00] way that I it's not the front door I want people coming into the youtube channel now because the stuff gets out isn't evergreen.

But I just released the final episode. And why did I do that? Because I had no more sacral energy to record that. I had so much energy for it, and all of a sudden it shut off. To the point where I had recorded a bunch of episodes for a clip season, which happened in October, roughly. I didn't release any of it.

It was just wasted content. And that was telling me that there was something wrong with it. else coming through. It was a wake up call for the collective and this podcast is about awakening your inner magic and if it was available I probably would have taken the name awakening your inner wisdom.

 I mean there's magic to that as well. , I've been getting more and more signs since I made that decision that I'm on the right track. So it's feeling really, really good. The bottom line is, is a shift has happened. Something has shifted in the last couple of months.

As dramatic as that sounds there, we are on [00:25:00] the other side of the aisle than what we were a couple months ago. And there are going to be people living in the mogul world. From here on out and they're going to be people living in the awake world. 

You know, whoever's awake awake, not not now. It's about using the information to really take control of our journeys in a way we haven't before and we have more ability to tap into the unseen and the divine realm than we ever had and And we have more of an ability to tap into each other than we ever had energetically and on a collective level.

So it's really important during this time to find people that think like you, , to understand you, someone you can be yourself with, you can make mistakes, you can fall down in front of them. They're going to be the ones that pick you up, they brush you off. And they're the ones that, you know, you can learn from when they do the same.

They fall down and they can tell you their mistakes. Brand is a nod to the book The Alchemist by Paul Kohelo. I mentioned this in the first episode. Sure you've heard of the book, read it, book [00:26:00] translated in more languages than any book in history, and it's the notion of being on the quest.

We have a path we're on, and the more that we are on that path, the more that the magic can find us. The more that we listen to the signs and omens and synchronicities and the messengers along the way We stay on that path the more we allow ourselves to trust our inner wisdom and our intuition and our divine guides the more we stay on that path and the more that we Listen to naysayers and doubters and worry about what other people are gonna think about us the more we fall off the path So that's where that piece comes in in addition to the notion of just alchemy being You create your own reality, but also when you fall, you get back up, right?

The totem of Scorpio, the astrological sign is the Phoenix [00:27:00] rising. Well, if you've heard of what's coming in 2027 in human design, it's the cross of the sleeping Phoenix. And we moved to that from the cross of planning well beyond the scope of this episode, but essentially human design was pretty much designed for the world of 2027 and beyond.

And so that's what I find exciting about what I'm talking about on this podcast. We're talking about futuristic personal development. We're talking about personal development is going, but we're also using tools and systems that people have been using since the beginning of time. If you know the book, the alchemist, he was, you know, on a horse and signs, symbols, omens, divine guidance, intuition, Even, you know, working with the nature's rhythms and the moon and the planets, if you're into that, that's been around since the beginning of time.

And in present [00:28:00] reality, we've got modern brain chemistry and modern tools to help us really understand how our brain works. To manifest, which I do believe is real and anybody who's into manifesting will say it combines mindset and And the universe, but our ability to understand our mindset and our ability to reprogram our mindset is probably in a much more sophisticated place 

so we're utilizing the past, we're utilizing the tools of now. And we're also utilizing the tools of the future. And that's a big part of what this podcast is about. This podcast episode got really long and I decided after the fact to split it up into two episodes.

So there's gonna be a part two. But in this first part, I kind of gave you what the podcast is and who I am. And in part two, I'm going to go into the brand, the Aligned Alchemist. Who is it? Where did it come from and what is it about? Stay tuned for part two if you're [00:29:00] interested.
