::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: and to get visible leveraging podcasts and a million plus audience on the Gnostic TV network. Today we are chatting with Cheryl Stelp. She is a spiritual coach, master, healer, author, and speaker here today to talk about her latest book from blocked to powerful, the spiritual guide to unlocking inner clarity and authentic power. Welcome to the show, Cheryl. It's really great to have you here.
3
::Cheryl Stelte: Oh, thank you so much, Jill. I really am thrilled to be here.
4
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Happy to have you. So I'm gonna ask you the big question, are you ready? Okay.
5
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I like to brace everybody for this.
6
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: What's the most significant thing in your opinion, we can do to make an impact on how the world is going as an individual.
7
::Cheryl Stelte: The most significant impact that we can make in the world today as an individual is to discover our own authentic power within ourselves. And you know, and I think we can talk about that today about what does that really mean? But I believe that we are all powerful beyond what we can imagine.
8
::Cheryl Stelte: you know, and what is power. So if we access who we truly are, and our authentic power, our world will be a very different place.
9
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: What's that ripple effect right to change yourself. And it changes how you interact with others. So it changes, how they interact with you and they change how they interact with other people.
10
::Cheryl Stelte: Right.
11
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I like that.
12
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So tell us about your book, and what what's it about?
13
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Who's it for all the stuff.
14
::Cheryl Stelte: I actually have 3 books, and so I'm going to just run through them quickly, and I want to base it on. You know your year. You have stated that this is all about get visible, and that's part of empowering yourself, and for most of us, for a lot of us that's really hard to do, and and I have struggled myself in the past.
15
::Cheryl Stelte: I think I've really overcome that. And still learning and growing, and my 1st book, heal your neck issues and let your throat Chakra shine is all about being seen and heard.
16
::Cheryl Stelte: People who came to me after I wrote that book. They had difficulty speaking their truth, you know. So if you're listening and you have a hard time speaking your truth, being really honest with others, if you're too worried. You might hurt someone's feelings and being vulnerable and really letting your voice be heard.
17
::Cheryl Stelte: That's what that book is about which led me to write the second book, Client Magnet, The Coach's Guide, to attract ideal clients through spiritual awareness or spiritual practices, and
18
::Cheryl Stelte: I never planned on writing a second book. It was not.
19
::Cheryl Stelte: never thought. I'm just like no one and done. I did my thing, it was so great it was so cool. But I started. Coaches started coming to me.
20
::Cheryl Stelte: and they're like, Where are you getting your clients? I'm like, I don't know. They just kind of fall out of the sky.
21
::Cheryl Stelte: And to me it was energetic, so I started to work with coaches, and the 1st 2 I worked with with within 6 or 7 weeks they had their whole coaching program full.
22
::Cheryl Stelte: and they just couldn't believe it. I mean, one of them didn't never launched her program and had been at it for 20 months, doing everything she was supposed to do. I mean she was in the doom and gloom, and I'm ready to give up. And the other coach she was at it for about 9 months she had one group and then nothing.
23
::Cheryl Stelte: nothing, and she was doing everything right. And then, all of a sudden, everything just came together for them, because they had subconscious blocks really to energetically being visible. So yes, they were getting out there. They were seen physically.
24
::Cheryl Stelte: but they weren't getting the energetic connection which then led me to write my 3rd and very recent book from block to powerful. And so it's really taking that high, level step to really being in alignment
25
::Cheryl Stelte: with your own unique authentic power in the world, and how you're here to be of service and service doesn't have to be a career. It can be a stay at home, mom. You know. I know firsthand. That's 1 heck of a tough job for anybody. But that's where we're all heading.
26
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You know, you bring up being a mom being, you know, even if you're just a mom, you're
27
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: kids are your clients, and you gotta like
28
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: move them and shape them and encourage them and coach them to become the human beings that they have the potential because everyone's born with this amazing potential. And our job as parents is to to see it in this
29
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: big rock that we call children and and help kind of chisel away the parts that allow the the real
30
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: power that everyone is born with to shine through. And I think your books really would. I know this is about helping coaches like get visible, but
31
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: your kids could become coaches. Someday they could become spiritual entrepreneurs. They could become anything that they want.
32
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: But it's it's up to us to be that that coach, that encourager, that the chiseler of possibilities.
33
::Cheryl Stelte: Yes, yes, I agree. And if we look at it from that perspective, it's so true. And really everybody is our client, whether you're a coach, or whether you're a male lady or whatever you're doing, you can be in the lineup at the grocery store, and then paying for your groceries, and you can be of service to that other person. It's really about not just being present with the other, but being present with ourselves, 1st noticing what's going on
34
::Cheryl Stelte: and seeing ourselves so we can see the other. And that's powerful. It's everybody. And yes, our beloved children, our families, our nieces and nephews, our parents and grandparents.
35
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's all the connections that we make because we are all connected. And
36
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: when we get that, then and that it's all energy. And we can just allow the energy to flow.
37
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Sometimes we do run into dams. I think there's beavers in our lives. I'm just gonna call it that.
38
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Come along, and they dam up little areas so that you could you could have some struggle.
39
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: See how you deal with it this time it'll burst through, and it'll start flowing again.
40
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Sorry I cracked myself up.
41
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I have some personal things that I'm going through right now. It's just like all came to me in one like, do you know, sometimes you're just like having a conversation with somebody, and then your your head is having a different conversation with you.
42
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Well, okay. So we'll just put that aside. So what are some of the pivotal moments for you or your clients that really help them discover more of their true selves?
43
::Cheryl Stelte: Well, it's you know you're talking about the beaver dams. Right? We all have these. I call them subconscious blocks. And I actually. So what are the some of the pivotal moments? My 1st pivotal moment was when I was writing my 1st book, and I and I remember
44
::Cheryl Stelte: writing the book. And suddenly that imposter syndrome crept up. When I was right in the middle of writing a chapter, I did them all in meditation. I prepared myself, and then over 8 days I wrote the book.
45
::Cheryl Stelte: and
46
::Cheryl Stelte: suddenly this voice is, who do you think you are to write about the throat, Chakra? You've had more throat Chakra issues than anybody you know. So you know, I had to do the work that I'm going to talk about. You know my 3 steps and move beyond that. But it's it's so funny we're talking today about getting visible. Let's let's get visible. And the client I had this morning said to me that was her intention for the session.
47
::Cheryl Stelte: I I need to be more visible. There's something I. My intention is to be more visible. I'm not doing all like she's busy. She's doing all the work. And what she came to realize was that
48
::Cheryl Stelte: she never really felt totally accepted and liked in her family. She felt loved, she absolutely felt love, but she was a middle child, too older, too younger, and she felt just unseen and invisible, and she never saw herself that way, and I remembered when we 1st started working together, and I remember her going to a conference, and
49
::Cheryl Stelte: she got all these compliments from other coaches around what she was doing things she was getting accomplished. They were saying things like, How do you get all that done? You're so amazing. And
50
::Cheryl Stelte: when she was telling me her story. I could see how she brushed them all off. She didn't let it in.
51
::Cheryl Stelte: so, even though they were seeing her, she wasn't allowing them
52
::Cheryl Stelte: to fully see her. She wasn't allow allowing herself to be seen. So this came up today, you know, at a whole new level, because she's she's getting keynote speaking engagement. She's getting paid. She's really doing some great work, but she knows there was something else, and so.
53
::Cheryl Stelte: you know, we dealt with it. She had a memory at age 9, and then again, at age 5, and of course subconscious beliefs are formed. So we cleared all that, and now she has a healing part, and now she's in the empowerment phase, where she is able to now be truly visible, allowing herself to be seen exactly as she is in her perfection today.
54
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So those ideal clients can find her.
55
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's kind of like flipping on the light switch
56
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: so you can shine your light. And there are people that need your light. So it's really important for you to
57
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: move past the things that are standing in our way.
58
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And if you can get past where the beavers are
59
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: can can just. It'll flow around you, and things opportunities will show up, and
60
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: and if you don't like, try to force them to be a certain way, then
61
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: it just allows life to move at a pace, and in a way that really
62
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: you you get visible. But it's not like
63
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: demanding visibility. There's a difference between demanding attention and commanding attention.
64
::Cheryl Stelte: And receiving attention.
65
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And receiving it.
66
::Cheryl Stelte: That's right. We have to be able to receive it and receive those who are meant to connect with us. We need to be able to be open and receptive. And that's being in that river of life, the river of Love. You know the waters where all the love is and the beavers are way behind us.
67
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, on the shores.
68
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Stay away from the shore, stay in the middle.
69
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So you do have a coaching program right?
70
::Cheryl Stelte: Yes, I have a number of them. I have a number of coaching programs.
71
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So.
72
::Cheryl Stelte: It's all about healing. It's very, very powerful healing. I don't take lightly that I call myself a master healer. I've been doing it for a very, very long time. You know. I've been at this for 31 years, and my number one, my oldest client, is me.
73
::Cheryl Stelte: you know. I I had to initially figure this all out on my own. Read a lot of books, did a lot of. I have spent thousands of dollars on trainings, and so it's all about intense work over a short period of time, and I teach all my clients how to become their own energy workers, so you can become your own energy healer, and then it becomes a lifestyle, because as long as we continue to grow we rise to that next level.
74
::Cheryl Stelte: I always say whatever kept us from doing that before will come up to be healed, so we can keep going
75
::Cheryl Stelte: and reach a new level.
76
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, I love that like you, just like
77
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: you can constantly keep moving forward. And I think having coaches around that can help you. And taking advantage of coaches like you, that can just make the the process faster and easier. I mean, you can stay caught in the beaver dam if you want. I mean, it's totally up to you. But me. I would rather just hire somebody to tell me how to get detangled back in the middle.
78
::Cheryl Stelte: And and help teach you how to untangle yourself, so that you can do it in future, and pretty much all my clients. By far the majority. I always ask one question when we're finished working together, and that is, did you ever think you would become the person you are today? And they all say, No, I couldn't imagine this. I could not imagine feeling like this. And being this.
79
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Isn't that interesting? How the ability to imagine a future position is really kind of
80
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: crucial to actually getting there to.
81
::Cheryl Stelte: Well, it it is, and it isn't so. So in my longest program, my higher state throat tracker program. That's the highest level. It's for clients have worked with me before. We don't set a goal. We don't set an intention. We don't imagine
82
::Cheryl Stelte: we there is. There is none of that, because
83
::Cheryl Stelte: your wounds, your beaver dams, are all getting in your way. Your capacity to imagine your true potential is limited, or you will go off in another direction because of what's in the subconscious.
84
::Cheryl Stelte: So the whole program all the way through is no imagining, no setting goals. It's an opening up to who you truly are. It's being in wonder and allowing it, and all the wonderful surprises that come with that and really stepping into your authentic self. So it's it's a bit of an adventure, and then it's not till the very end to the 5 day retreat that. Oh, then we really
85
::Cheryl Stelte: we really gain that clarity. It's
86
::Cheryl Stelte: all the clients that come to see me. Everybody is lacking clarity. They don't know how to get there, and they want that imagination. And so one of the things I suggest, and I do a lot of Chakra readings. They're spiritual readings. I can read people's energy. So I see all those beaver dams, those subconscious blocks as dark spots. We are made of light, so I can see where your light is shining
87
::Cheryl Stelte: brightly, what your superpowers are, how to make the best use of those superpowers to shine on and heal those dark spots, and where your where your growth curves are. So it's
88
::Cheryl Stelte: people always say, Wow! That was so detailed and so much information. Well, you have a lot of information inside you, and so to help people get to a place of clarity, even if they don't work with me to have an understanding of what's next, and what are the things that they can be working on and make the most of their superpowers, so our imaginations are wonderful, and
89
::Cheryl Stelte: in imagining our future they will. It will only take us so far, so I invite to do the opposite way to undo all those things that are getting in the way.
90
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I
91
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: totally unexpected. But I I can appreciate that. I I'm sitting here thinking about. You know the times when my life is
92
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: has gone where I'm really in the flow, and you can just feel it.
93
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And that's really where the magic happens. It's it's when I just let it go.
94
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I just.
95
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I'm curious. I'll do things that I wouldn't normally do. I'll just let it be, whatever it is which
96
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: for me
97
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: it has been a challenge in my life. But I'm I'm getting better at it in terms of just
98
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: okay. So that happened. And and this happened. And I wonder what's
99
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I wonder what the outcome of all of that's going to be, and I don't have to have an opinion about it, or even really
100
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: have thoughts about it. I can just watch, and I'd be surprised.
101
::Cheryl Stelte: That's right, and there's there's forever and unfolding, and where I think a lot of that stems from. If I if I can comment here is that so many of us try and control outcomes? Because when we were little at some point, there could have been something there usually was something going on, not just once, but many times, where the grownups around us didn't have it together.
102
::Cheryl Stelte: and the little child thinks, oh, I have to take control of this situation.
103
::Cheryl Stelte: And so then we, we think, oh, I need to. I need to be the one in charge if I if I leave it up to anyone else, especially God or the Universe source.
104
::Cheryl Stelte: Forget it.
105
::Cheryl Stelte: We don't grow up in that 100% trusting environment where we're loved, no matter what. And someone's always there for us that we're always well resourced. So that's where that comes from. And and we are designed to be in that flow in that spiritual flow in one with all.
106
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's very interesting, and I'll explain why afterwards
107
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: just goes to prove that your your energy work really does work.
108
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I know that you have the ace method of the power of clearing subconscious blocks that you offer to people on your website. You want to talk about that a little bit.
109
::Cheryl Stelte: Yes, and so I call it the ace method. It's easy to remember you think of. I always think of an image of an ace of spades.
110
::Cheryl Stelte: And this is this is such a powerful way to help you clear those subconscious blocks. And so A is for access. You have to 1st access.
111
::Cheryl Stelte: but they're in your subconscious. How are you going to access them? Well, what happens when we breathe fully with the lower abdomen? It changes the brain function. So as you and I are sitting here right now, Jill, we're using the brain stem, the back of the brain, the medulla oblongata to breathe.
112
::Cheryl Stelte: And that's great. It's happening automatically. But as soon as we engage our abdominal muscles and breathe in a long, slow breath, especially to 6 or 8 seconds in and 6 or 8 seconds out. It changes the brain function to the frontal lobal brain.
113
::Cheryl Stelte: and it frees up the brain stem. It frees up the medulla oblongata, which gives us access to our subconscious. So that's how we access is through the breath so good to sit. Sit up nice and straight. You can call it meditation, or you can call it healing, or you can call it accessing your subconscious, whatever you want to call it.
114
::Cheryl Stelte: Close your eyes and go inward and really focus on that full breath. So what'll happen for you? You may have pieces of memory that come up. You might start to notice physical sensations, you might start to feel emotions, and science has proven that trauma and all our wounds, all those subconscious blocks, are imprinted in the right side of the brain
115
::Cheryl Stelte: through physical sensations and emotions, and the memories are always fragmented.
116
::Cheryl Stelte: So when people are afraid. Oh, I don't want to go back there, I will tell you right now. You are never going to have a linear memory. It is not going to happen. It's fragmented. And what those little mini Traumas and I'm just going to throw in here that the number one trauma, especially people my age.
117
::Cheryl Stelte: We didn't have anyone who was an emotional resource for us. It wasn't a thing. It wasn't a thing to feel our feelings label them, and and for our parents to support us in feeling our feelings because they didn't have it, and their parents didn't have it. This is all relatively new for humanity, and that is an ongoing trauma that is difficult to detect, and trauma is not so much about what happened. It's that lingering feeling of uncertainty.
118
::Cheryl Stelte: So if we're feeling uncertain about ourselves, especially at a subconscious level, how are we going to get visible?
119
::Cheryl Stelte: How are we? Possibly.
120
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, you just want to hide.
121
::Cheryl Stelte: Come over that hurdle. And so that's accessing. So you can start with an incident that happened yesterday, or somebody upset you. You can start with that. Anything that's upsetting you today started in your early childhood. I will tell you that right now, because when there's not a trigger you'll just see that. Oh, that's just their stuff.
122
::Cheryl Stelte: and we don't get the trigger so you can start there and just follow the emotions back. Follow what's happening for you, and you can access the truth of what really happened. And then we want to clear it. So A is for access. C is for clear, and that's breathing through it. Stay with the emotions and stay with the physical sensations.
123
::Cheryl Stelte: Your left brain. If you have a memory, a piece of a memory, it's going to want to go there and start thinking, thinking, thinking, and you're going to stop breathing fully. Then you're in your conscious mind. So go back. I still, I've been meditating like this for over 30 years. I still check to see that I'm breathing fully
124
::Cheryl Stelte: still today, because it's so automatic to go into the left brain. So you clear by feeling the emotions that's the deepest level. The second deepest level is the physical sensations, and so that will clear it. And you'll start to feel better. You'll start to feel better. So if you think of it, let's use the beaver down.
125
::Cheryl Stelte: The water is flowing, that's the light we are, we are! We are energetic beings in flow in the universe. The beaver dam, those are the wounds, the traumas. So the bunch of them all along the river.
126
::Cheryl Stelte: So you keep breathing into those emotions and physical sensations, and the Bebo dam breaks up, and it's no longer there. Then we move into the E is for empowerment. What is the truth of your being? What's actually going on
127
::Cheryl Stelte: in your light, in the light of your being? And so your your subconscious beliefs will change
128
::Cheryl Stelte: into something that serves you something much more positive, and your emotions will change, and you'll start to see the truth of your being, and you keep doing this, and that's what will move you into authentic empowerment.
129
::Cheryl Stelte: and you won't have the fear of really being soon seen. You won't have the trepidation.
130
::Cheryl Stelte: and and you'll want to see others, and we'll all be in this together, where we're all seen and heard and recognized for our authentically powerful selves.
131
