Welcome to Live Love, Engage Namaste. I am so delighted to. Be with you again, uh, for another episode of Live Love Engage, as you heard already. I no doubt from the intro, and I'm delighted to have a new friend. Actually. She's not only, uh, yeah, I consider her a friend. We, we've met, through Clubhouse, I guess it was, or LinkedIn or both anyway, recently. And, and, and she is a wonderful woman and I'm gonna tell you all about her in a minute. But first I wanna welcome Robynn Sheridan to live, love, engage. Hi, Gloria. Well, let me tell you, for those of you who are listening and, and those of you who are maybe watching as well on YouTube. So Robynn Sheridan is known as the Self Love Emissary, and she's been on a Personal spiritual journey since her mid thirties. She discovered that she had gifts that could help facilitate healing of others through conversation, connecting to their body's energy, or even tapping into their spirit guides and receiving guidance for them. And she is also. One of the things I know that she loves is mentoring, and I know that's part of what we're gonna, we're gonna dive into here a little bit today. but I think first I, as I often like to do with our guests is, is I'd love to sort of explore a little bit about what, what got you here, You know, what, what is the, you know, As I just mentioned, you've been on this personal journey, so what, maybe even what precipitated that or, or what, what's kind of, you know, Got you, got you to where you became the self love emissary. Let's, let's, let's do that. Well, yeah. I was the queen of self-sabotage and I really didn't understand why I kept attracting the same relationships in my life, whether they be a friend, a boyfriend, a boss. I always seem to attract the same people in the same situations in my life over and over again. And it just got to the point where one day I looked in the mirror and I was 30 and I looked 50. and I just, I was like, What is going on in your life? Why do you keep attracting all of these same scenarios in your life? What are you doing wrong? Like it was the first time I realized that I couldn't blame anybody else. It was the first time I took a responsibility and stepped out of victim mode and said, You're the common denominator. You need to fix this, and you have to start with yourself. Mm-hmm. And that's what got me started. So what did that look like? What did you, what did you start doing? You know? Cuz I know a spiritual journey is sort of different for everybody. It all looks, looks different. Some people read, some people listen to, to books. Some people just have spontaneous, I think, you know, awakening, So, So what did you do? I went to the library. And picked every self-help book I could find because computers were new, like there wasn't, you know, I didn't have a computer at home. I may have worked on a computer at work, but I did not have a personal computer at that time. I went to the library and pulled out every self-help book I could find, and the moment I started asking for help, Spirit started bringing these interesting people into my life. And I would be introduced to people who were clairvoyant, and I didn't have a clue really what any of that was about. So I started being introduced into people who were really into hearing spirit, acknowledging spirit, and tapping into that energy. So how did you start realizing that you had this gift for yourself to be able to do that? Well, I started, believe it or not, with Wicca, I started with Wiccan, started, you know, reading all the books on magic and how to connect to dragons and how to connect to fairies, and that was my beginning of understanding that I was powerful. Like I had gifts and skills that I needed to learn how to use or tap into, and that was my first experience of trying to step out of myself and connect with something bigger. What, what value did you find out of that? What, what, what would you say would be even? Yeah, maybe either the biggest. Maybe biggest lesson and the biggest value you got out of it. Well, the biggest value I got out of it is I don't like ritual. Oh. I am not a person who likes to have to do a full moon ceremony, a new moon ceremony. I mean, I bought all the things. I did all of the things and that went, uh, I don't like this. I don't enjoy this. There's gotta be an easier way. And then as soon as I asked for an easier way, then people showed up. And one of the first things that showed up was essential oils and how to work with essential oils. And with that came all kinds of courses, that were similar to Reiki, but it was a whole bunch of courses where I learned to tap into my physical body, tap into the other person's physical body. That opened up all new possibilities for me. So give an example. Well, I understood like there was a situation where my daughter was in a car accident and I went to the hospital and I was so concerned about her. I went up to her and I gave her a big hug and told her how much I loved her, and instantly I pulled everything out of her physical body. And put it in my own, not on purpose, but I took away all of the physical pain that she would've experienced from that car accident. And then I personally went through all that physical pain for the next two to three weeks. Oh my goodness. Wow. I'm, I'm guessing, that’s may not be something you recommend people do as a general rule. No. no. Yeah, but that made me realize that I had healing abilities, but of course I didn't have the knowledge or the wisdom and the maturity back then to understand that I was actually taking away the lesson my daughter was supposed to be learning. Oh, and just to give you a reason, example is two years later, she got into another car accident so that she could go through what she was supposed to learn the first time when I accidentally took that away from her. Oh, wow. That's interesting. And, and I think it's something that I think that people don't necessarily understand. You know, a lot of times they, we get into this, you know, Oh, why is this happening to me? And, and focus too much on that, but not really looking at the broader picture and like, maybe is there, is there a lesson that I need to be learning from this? So what, what do you think has been your biggest lesson that you've gotten out of, uh, you know, all of this journey that you've been on? Well, my biggest lesson was to learn that I care about people and I was always reaching out and trying to help people. And then of course, when you're always reaching out and trying to help without the person asking you, you just create more drama and then you become resentful because the people don't appreciate what you do for them. And my biggest lesson was to learn that you can't help people unless they ask you. And then you really need to, you know, bring, like, are you really willing to do the work? Like it's okay for you to ask me and I can help you, but I can't do it for you. I can hold the sacred space. I can be there for you. I can teach you the knowledge and the skillset that I have. I can work with you. But you have to do the work. That's a really important lesson, to learn. And, and,...
