From Survival to Soul | SOVEREIGN Magazine® Podcast with Soph Newman

In this episode of the SOVEREIGN Magazine® Podcast, host Nicole George connects with contributor Soph Newman, a transformational coach and soul-centered astrologer, to discuss the June Full Moon theme “Determined and Resilient” and Soph’s article on moving from survival to soul. Soph explains birth charts as a soul blueprint and schemas as protective beliefs formed when emotional needs are inconsistently met, linking how unmet needs can distort the higher expression of chart placements. They discuss why charts must be read as a whole, how to discern whether choices come from fear (survival) or soul, and how the south node reflects familiar comfort patterns while the north node represents soul growth. They explore parenting, boundaries, and helping children feel safe having a voice, emphasizing the importance of a regulated nervous system. Soph leads a guided EFT tapping sequence to reduce overwhelm and reconnect with steady resilience.00:00 Trigger Warning 01:06 Meet Soph Newman02:14 Theme Determined and Resilient03:08 Birth Charts and Schemas06:54 Whole Chart Complexity09:20 Survival vs Soul Decisions11:53 North Node Growth Path15:25 Calming the Nervous System17:56 Parenting Boundaries and Voice23:48 EFT Tapping Practice Connect with Soph NewmanEmailInstagramWebsiteProducer’s credits:Nicole George - Podcast Host | CEO/Founder SOVEREIGN Magazine® | Editor-in-Chief Ariane Lim - Podcast Producer + EngineerSara Wagle - Audio Efficiency & Flow ManagerLatest Issue: Click here Become a Columnist: learn more here.Connect with Us:InstagramFacebookLinkedInSubstackYouTubeThreads
