Chapter 0- My Story & Why I Created the Soul Manual

Welcome to The Soul Manual Podcast! I’m Cindy Guerrero—Shaman, Licensed Clinical Therapist, and Yoga Teacher—and this is our starting point.In this intro episode, I’m sharing the path that led me here: from working in clinical mental health and inpatient psychiatric care to discovering my spiritual gifts, training in energy healing, and opening my private practice. I talk about what it means to truly heal—physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically—and how my personal struggles with perfectionism, self-worth, and anxiety shaped the work I do today.This podcast is your guidebook for being human—the one we never received. Each episode is a “chapter” filled with tools, reflections, and real talk about what it means to heal and grow. My goal is to take you from simply understanding things mentally to embodying real, tangible shifts in your daily life.Let’s get curious, get honest, and figure it out together.My personal journey to where I am todayHow I learned to integrate clinical therapy with energy workWhy perfectionism, life challenges, and intuition shaped my purposeThe vision for this podcast and how to use it as your healing manual
