It's Not What You Think

I recently got to reconnect with my good friend, acclaimed author, adventurer, and host of the Netflix series "The Kindness Diaries" Leon Logothetis. Even though we come from totally different backgrounds, a serendipitous connection between us years ago changed both our lives forever! It all started with a simple tweet which led to an unexpected friendship. This in turn led to Leon recommending me for a life-changing volunteer trip, helping set me on my path of self-discovery. 🙌 In this episode, we reminisce about that pivotal moment. We explore the profound power of human connection 🤝, intuition, and heeding the call of your Soul's purpose.  We discuss... How the places we travel to can energetically interact with you and bring unconscious emotions to the surface, ready to be resolved. We share our philosophies on cultivating self-trust, following your intuition, and serving others through kindness. 🫶 This episode is filled with so much wisdom, rawness, and hope!  🙏 My hope for you after listening (or watching) is that you will be inspired to reconnect with your own purpose and lead with your Soul.

What happens when you let your most unfiltered, quirky, weird “crazy” self out to play? 🤪  What if everything you’ve ever known and believed about reality was only a fraction of what reality can be? 🤯 In this episode, I share the wild story of how an accidental acid trip 💊 cracked open the parts of myself I had kept hidden for a lifetime… and the unexpected liberation it brought into my life.  This experience absolutely shattered so many limiting paradigms I was constraining myself with and gave me permission to step into a whole new level of my fullest, unapologetic expression… which has been rippling into my reality to this day.  HEADS-UP While this episode shares my experience with psychedelics, its purpose is not to promote or encourage their use. My intention is to openly share a transformational experience from my life without filtering or censoring myself.

My hope is this episode inspires you to embrace your intuitive self more fully. If you're willing to come in with an open mind, I’m confident this conversation will expand your perception of what's possible. 🙏 INVITATION Are you desiring to unlock the next level of expression of your intuitive, multidimensional self, in both life and business?

I’ve spent the past year deep in studies in the Earth Priestess temple arts… I am only just beginning this work and still FAR from the level of mastery I’d like to eventually achieve when it comes to the natural sacred bond that we as humans all have access to when it comes to the elements and Mother Earth (also known as Gaia)... That said, the journey so far has illuminated that our planet is a living, sentient being undergoing her own evolution, and that we as human beings – cells of her being – have a role to play in that. In this episode, I host an ambassador for Modern Magik and Mother Nature and a voice for Mother Earth, the lovely and sassy Mia Magik. We discuss embodying your true nature, honoring the wisdom of the Earth, and fearlessly following your own path.  During a laser coaching session, Mia shares her vulnerability about overcoming limiting beliefs and reclaiming her inner magik and I support her in finding her way back to clarity and self-empowerment. We all experience challenges and in the spirit of this episode, I encourage you to connect to nature whenever you desire guidance. To help you along your way, Mia shares with us a beautiful meditation where you can call on the elements and receive divine wisdom.  Download Mia’s Intuwitchin' Meditation & Practice for free here.  As the Dalai Lama says, if you think that you do not have time to meditate for one hour a day, you should meditate for two. BE THE FIRST... If you desire to create and grow a thriving, prosperous, soul-led business where you are being supported by your business in your soul service, make sure you join the waiting list for my Business by Soul group program. You will learn to be authentically yourself in your unique soul expression, be of service, and be highly compensated for it.  As well as build a business model that's going to change the lives of many. EPISODE INSIGHTS: How to become more abundant and prosperous in your business through your connection with nature What the word "witch" really means and its root of wisdom throughout human history The witch wound and how it's affecting both men and women How to deconstruct the patriarchy from our belief systems and return to our power A laser coaching session with Mia where we overcome her limiting beliefs  Looking to nature for guidance Changing with the seasons in your own life: Nature rests in winter, and you can too HIGHLIGHT QUOTES: “The more in connection I come with the elements and the earth and the more I open myself up and sink into the rhythms of what it means to be a woman, the more business flows for me.” Celinne Da Costa “The planet is my fountain of abundance.” Celinne Da Costa "We're all witches. We're all wise people. We all have intuition. We all have psychic gifts and abilities. They've just been stripped from us." Mia Magik “Being willing to show myself and my truth is when people really resonate with me. So don't pretend like you're perfect because nobody is.” Mia Magik “It was about seeing the magik itself, the magik of life, the magik of nature, the magik of the elements, the magik that they, too, had.” Mia Magik MEET MIA MAGIK Mia Magik is an ambassador for Modern Magik and Mother Nature, returning ancient ways to the modern day. On a mission of PERMISSION, Mia helps uncover the most magikal version of self through dedicated spiritual transfiguration and purification of patriarchal programming to connect with IntuWitchin-' the inner wisdom & guidance system. Reclaiming the truth, that Witch means Wise. As Headmistress of a School for Magikal Artistry Mia has empowered thousands of people to reconnect with their infinite supernatural abilities through the embodiment of Nature’s elements. Mia's advocacy for Mother Earth and Witchery has made her a respected and sought-after figure in the environmental community. She uses her platforms to raise awareness about important ecological issues for sustainability and encourages her followers to take action in service of the Mother we all share. Mia Magik gives us permission to feel safe in our power, pleasure, playfulness, purpose & prosperity, making a more majestically mystical, magikal world for us all.

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to spend 5 days immersed in a private training program to become one of Dr. Joe Dispenza's corporate Neuro Change Solutions trainers. For those unfamiliar with Dr. Joe, he's an international speaker, researcher, author, and passionate educator known for bestselling books like Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and Becoming Supernatural.  Being taught directly by Dr. Joe himself, presenting his work to him, and receiving his feedback (while nerve-wracking) was incredibly rewarding, and collaborating with other like-minded, talented trainers who are committed to bringing sustainable change to the world was a life-changing experience. In this solo episode, I'm sharing the biggest insights and takeaways from my time studying with Dr. Joe. You'll learn the core science between our thoughts and emotions, and how to guide yourself through meaningful, long-lasting transformation. Because at its essence, this is what my work is all about - supporting individuals to consciously evolve into the best versions of themselves. Whether through this podcast, my offers, or free content, my desire is to provide tools for positive and impactful change. What I’ve discovered in my years of dedicated inquiry, research, trialing, and testing is… There is an easier, faster, and more graceful pathway to creating big transformation in your life. This is a pathway that I teach inside of The Journey, my 12-month self-led mentorship experience where you’ll receive access to all of my self-study programs, plus any new self-led offer that I create in the next year! PLUS, quarterly live Q&As and live opportunities for me to support you in embodying your Soul purpose and reprogramming your subconscious mind for success.

EPISODE INSIGHTS: How to create meaningful and long-lasting transformations Understanding that people CAN change The science behind making changes How your personality is created What are electromagnetic fields? The importance of emotional management How we get addicted to our emotions The role of our nervous system in our reality Crossing the “river of change” What working smarter looks like Living in a state of creation vs. survival Getting uncomfortable in the unknown Creating a reality from your Soul instead of your ego* * Listen to episode 7 of the podcast where I dive deeper into the concept of your Ego and Soul here. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES: You work smarter, not harder, by managing your state of being. Celinne Da Costa All the transformation that we could possibly desire is in the unknown. It's in the quantum field, it hasn't materialized yet. Celinne Da Costa If you truly want to create transformation in your life, and quickly, you need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Celinne Da Costa The way he - Dr. Joe Dispenza - explained things was so simple to grasp, my mind couldn't help but accept it. Celinne Da Costa It's not that you can't change, it's that you don't yet know how to change effectively and sustainably. Celinne Da Costa If you knew the path, life would not be fun. Celinne Da Costa I will forever be comfortable in the uncomfortable, the uncomfortable will always feel uncomfortable. If I'm tapping out of that, I'm not growing.

Back in 2020 one of my beloved clients, Melanie Meade felt like she was swimming in a pool of hopelessness. After a particularly long day, while relaxing in a bath and listening to a podcast where I was a featured guest, Melanie resonated with my personal journey. It was at that moment that she realized, “That's what I need”. Today Melanie and I come together and share the beautiful story of her journey which started when she first signed up for Master Your Story. We will unpack what it looks like to do the work of actualization, self-development and growth when working with me in both in a private container as well as in any of the self-led digital courses that I offer including The Journey.  Don't forget you can also watch this episode on YouTube! The Journey Is a 12-month self-guided mentoring experience, designed to take you through the stages I am sharing with you in this episode of Melanie's journey. Alongside Storytelling, Strategy, and Soul, this container offers you a treasure chest of tools, frameworks, and methodologies for personal transformation. It will allow you to create an internal pathway to lead yourself from A to B and become the person who asks the questions and brings you closer to your heart’s desires, faster. PLUS – I host live quarterly Q&As where you can receive my mentorship and guidance in a group setting. If you would like to learn more about The Journey click here. EPISODE INSIGHTS: Rediscovering your purpose in business Finding your authentic voice Using my tools, frameworks, and methodologies Claiming your title and role in your unique way Asking the right questions to expand and evolve Getting out of your head Shedding past conditioning Doing the inner work Melanie’s experience of working with me privately and digitally If you've been following me for some time, you would have heard me talking a lot about the concept of knowing and mastering your brand story. And being able to share your unique authentic story in a way that is going to reach your desired audience. Melanie is a prime example of how this works. She heard me talking about my story, sharing my brand story and saw herself in it. Because she felt emotionally connected, Melanie decided to reach out and take one of my programs. This evolved into what is now a three-year private coaching partnership. Since working together Melanie has gained clarity and confidence within herself, her skills, and her business. This is a really cool moment for those who are not sure why they should tell their story. For those concerned about 'talking too much about themselves' or even those wondering 'what's the point of having a brand story in your business'.  The point is that you literally magnetize dream clients because they feel connected to your story. They hear your story and resonate with you. As a result of that resonance, they will approach you and if the fit is right, they'll start working with you.  Private Coaching If after listening to this episode you are feeling called for private coaching with me, I offer various containers to match your Soul's desires. If you choose to work with me in one of my current 1:1 containers, please know that you will be deeply supported by me during this time.

I will walk with you on your journey, which can be 4 months (Story Embodiment Accelerator), 7 months (Story Alchemy Mentorship), or a deep dive of 13 months (Reclamation Mentorship). Click here to apply for 1:1 private coaching spot today. You may also join me for a 90-minute Story Clarity Intensive 1:1 session which will offer you a peek into what it would look like to work with me in my (4, 7, and 13-month) private mentorship programs.

In 2016 I had an epiphany, “If I don't change my life, I am going to die inside”. And so, I packed my backpack and left everything I knew behind to circumnavigate the world. I spent 9-months couch-surfing through the homes of 70+ strangers testing the power of human connection. It was an extremely vulnerable experience. I felt lost. Who knew then that this decision would propel my life and career forward in the best possible way? I talk more about this journey in season 1 of the podcast, if you would like to listen click here. FOR TODAY: I’d like to retrace my couch-surfing journey from a different perspective: taking that leap of faith toward your Soul’s purpose and leaning into those fears that are holding you back.  Why? Because I know how scary it can be. For me, it was the BIGGEST F**KING ‘I DON'T KNOW’ OF MY LIFE! It was not at all as sexy or glamorous as some may make it out to be. I had to let go of a life that I had so carefully curated, prepared and organized. I was ticking all the right boxes to live successfully in mainstream society - it was all mentally very satisfying. But the issue is that when we live a life where our mind leads the way, we're setting ourselves up for a hollow life because it's not the mind that's meant to be in the drivers seat, it's our Soul.  When we start to operate from our Soul, that's when life gets blissful. That's when life gets exciting. That's when life gets really beautiful and you're living it in alignment to love, in the field of love, in connection to God's source, the almighty, whatever you want to call this oneness that we've all experienced at some point. I've gone through such a massive dark night of the Soul and ego death and over the past several years, I’ve been rebuilding, shedding, deconditioning, and letting go. I have been doing the inner work and I'm still not done. And I'm not gonna be done anytime in this lifetime. It's a process.  THE REASON I WANT TO SHARE THIS IS: If you're drawn to this work, if you're drawn to my podcast and this episode, I trust that your Soul called you to receive this message today for you to remember that you are worthy. You are worthy of creating a life that flourishes within you, that lights you up, that's beautiful, and full of love, and blissful, and joyful.  I believe that there's a unique gift that you have to bring to the world. For those of you who are feeling called towards living your life to your Soul’s purpose, I would love to support you as you take your journey home. I have a beautiful, self-led program called The Journey for you. It is a 12-month all-access path to every recorded course, masterclass, guide, meditation, and workshop I’ve ever created and will create during our time together. Plus, quarterly live group Q&A’s with me so that I can personally support you through your journey. It will quantum leap into your highest Soul destiny and elevate your relationship with business, money, Self, and Spirit.  If The Journey is resonating with your Soul and you’re ready to ascend sign up here. EPISODE INSIGHTS:  Stepping onto your Soul's purpose Your spiritual awakening  Listening to your inner voice Living our human experience fully The death and rebirth cycle Coming back to the source Living in mainstream society What it is that we truly want Walking in your heart's path HIGHLIGHT QUOTES: You have to be willing to step into the mystery and willing to trust yourself in your core and know that as long as you are walking every step with your heart you are inevitably going to end up where your mind cannot even fathom. It is so much grander and better and more than anything you ever could have imagined. Celinne Da Costa To experience change you have to walk into the mystery and unknown. Celinne Da Costa After listening to this episode, I invite you to take a few moments to reflect. What stood out to you? What were your key takeaways or breakthroughs? And if there was one action step you could take from this, what would it be?  If anything I've shared today has inspired you, please feel free to take a screenshot and tag me on Instagram @celinnedacosta I would love to hear from you. P.s. I have an exciting group program coming soon called Business By Soul. Here you will learn how to create a profitable business that is in alignment with your Soul’s highest purpose - if this is something you're interested in feel free to join the waiting list here.

During this powerful passage through the Lionsgate portal, I am introducing you to my friend, sister, and mentor for the past 3 years, Leanne Edwards. She is often referred to as an ‘Archaeologist of the Soul’, a 'New Earth Architect', or simply 'The Tea Lady’.  Leanne's gifts include the capacity to traverse time, space, and dimension in support of individuals to re-member themselves, align with their Soul, reclaim their sovereignty, reconnect to their multi-dimensionality, ignite their passion, embody their power, and step into greater service.  In this episode, we will share some of the codes that this luminous visionary holds, along with the importance of reconnecting with nature and our host planet. We will also explore why it is important that we slow down, unplug, and do the inner work to create space for change through transformational experiences supporting our own awakening. EPISODE INSIGHTS:  The matrix (yes, I reference Neo) Subconscious programming Feeding our consciousness Our awakening journey Loving unconditionally New Earth frequencies The triangle of disempowerment The 3 grounding tools Dysfunctional relating Relationship programming Through my own awakening, there has been a lot of letting go, unpacking, and cleanup of all of my past conditioning - societal, cultural, ancestral, etc. - to do. This honestly felt scary to me at first. But over time, I have learned (through repetition) that it's worth listening to that intuition. It's worth listening to Soul. Because even when I don't get it, it somehow leads me exactly to where I need to be, beyond what I could have imagined or mentally fathomed. I've been able to strengthen myself through daily meditation, where I am able to come back to the pillar that I am, all the way into the earth, and through the sun. Feeling my center from which I originate, I am able to trust life. If you would like to learn a daily practice to align yourself through your physical, mental, emotional, and energy bodies, harmonize with your own Soul. If you would like to connect to yourself, the planet, and with Source… so that you can tap into your personal power and start your day leading from Soul, Leanne and I have prepared a special gift for you... a free Source Alignment Meditation!  Please enjoy and, if it resonates, incorporate it as part of your daily practice until it becomes your new place of origin and state of Being. Click here to get immediate access. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES We have a navigation system beyond comprehension that can answer all our questions, make all our choices, and shift our trajectory from a future founded on fate to a divine dance with destiny. Leanne Edwards We are vibrational beings having a human experience and we are here to remember how to love and experience what love is. Leanne Edwards Don’t follow the crowd, follow your intuition. Our Soul is the greatest guide we will always, ever have. Leanne Edwards Any belief is limiting. Leanne Edwards With our thoughts, our words, and our actions we are creating our reality.
