Episode Transcript:

Brenda Edwards: I was on a boat on the Sea of Galilee with 18 people and I had a vision of Christ. And I will say that one was the most monumental. Moment of my life.

welcome to the Path and Purpose Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Cameron Martin.

I'm a spiritual coach and self-realization teacher with a passion for the sacred work of self-discovery. I'm the founder of Path and Purpose where I help spiritually awakening humans, light workers, old souls, and conscious leaders to discover their soul's purpose.

My entire life has been a journey of deep spiritual discovery. You could call me an eternal student of the universe, and although it's tempting to buy into limiting stories about ourselves, my journey has taught me that it takes courage to embody who we truly are. I'm on this planet to empower people to discover their soul's purpose [00:01:00] so that they can live fully aligned with their higher self and experience the life that they were meant to live with.

Clarity, passion, and fulfillment. Let me ask you, are you on a journey of self-discovery and know that there's something deeper calling you, something more for you that's beyond where you are currently? , do you wanna know with certainty what your soul is here to do? Well, I've created this podcast to give inspiration and insights so that the path to living your soul's purpose is less of a mystery and more of a discovery.

So if you're on your spiritual journey and you're craving the true peace and bliss that is your divine nature, my intention is that you'll be inspired by today's episode.

 Thank you for joining me for this episode of the path and purpose podcast [00:02:00] today. I really want to share the idea about being a lifelong student. So I. Totally would consider myself a student of the universe. I have literally been studying since I was a child. Just recently earned my PhD. Uh, and while that seems like an accomplishment and for some, I mean, it is.

For some people, they would consider that to be sort of the pinnacle of learning and that's enough. Um, for me, that's not really the case. I think if we're on planet earth, we're always learning. And my guest this week. Uh, is Brenda Edwards and she'll also share her perspective on being a lifelong learner, but I really want to share with you.

That if we want to truly live our soul's purpose and we've, we need to accept that we actually are here on planet earth to learn. The experiences we have in life are really all for our souls development opportunities for our souls to learn. So [00:03:00] the best thing that you can do, or perhaps the best mode that you can be in.

If you want to be living your purpose. And if you want to live in alignment with who you truly are is to consider yourself first and foremost. A student. Always learning and learning. Doesn't have to be this drudgery thing. Um, learning is anything that is of interest to you. Uh, video editing, learning to basket weave. That's an interesting one.

Uh, whatever, paint, whatever feels interesting, whatever feels exciting, whatever is unique, or just sparking your interest that's worth following because chances are, there's something to be revealed in there for you. I used to be a teacher. And I do think that our school system does a really excellent job at teaching people to hate learning. Basically by the time they get to 12th grade and they're ready to graduate and maybe go on to college, most people are actually quite tired of learning or don't really know how [00:04:00] to learn for pleasure.

And so really what I have learned. In my experience. Is that the more I learn, the more I, um, consider myself a student.

The more, I stay open to new material to new ideas. The more that my path unfolds before me. And so consider for yourself. What is that internal learner within you looking to explore these days and take a step in that direction, you might be surprised to see where the path leads.

Track 1: On today's episode, I'm here with my good friend and mentor, Brenda Edwards. Brenda is a heart-centered spirited entrepreneur who's been following her spiritual path since she was 16 years old. She's a medium and a channeler who connects with many realms and dimensions. don't I know it. Since she was a kid, she was always drawn to the Christ and [00:05:00] Magdalene energies even before she knew why.

She offers life path readings, human design sessions, spiritual life, coachings, and many forms of energy work. One of her favorite things she offers is leading spiritual groups around the world to sacred sites, to reclaim parts of who they really are.

And so

welcome Brenda.

Brenda Edwards: Thank you so much. I'm delighted to be here.

Track 1: Yeah so, well, Brenda, I've known Brenda for years. I don't Well and lifetimes, frankly. So her and I, this is just like picking up another conversation, . Um, but there are so many things we could talk about, but today the focus is really following our purpose and following our path. . And so, uh, in your intro I shared that you've been on your spiritual journey since 16 years old, and I know that your journey has been very interesting,

So I'm curious what marked the beginning of your spiritual journey for you?

Brenda Edwards: Well, literally what happened was [00:06:00] my near death experience was. And that happened, everything opened up. But because it was so long ago, we didn't have the internet. We didn't have a lot of great books out about what it was. And I had my first near-death experience in a car accident where I went through the windshield and went through the doorway on the other side, and that was so magical to me, even though I didn't understand. like, what the heck is happening? I had no idea. I thought I was dreaming at it first. And so as I went into this other realm and this other place, what happened was my father had died when I was eight years old. And like I said, I was 16 and my father was at the end of this hallway on the other side of a fence, and I was all about going to see him.

And he said, you can't go any further. It's not your time yet. And. All of a sudden I felt this overwhelming energy of [00:07:00] just pure love and the love was just amazing. It was not a male energy or a female. It was just, if you can imagine the whole world just focusing on you and sending you love and light.

That's what it felt like. But of course, because I knew nothing about

near death experiences, then I thought it was a dream. So I just heard that I was gonna reach many, many people in this lifetime, and at that time it didn't mean anything to me and that, um, it was not my time and I had to go back now, like many that you hear from now about their near-death experiences. Nobody wants to come back because that energy is so unified and so complete and so loving that, who wants to come back to this world with everything going on in it? Right? Especially now, but I did come back and I remember [00:08:00] that all of a sudden I started having this knowing and. I knew things that were gonna happen and I used to get what I call psychic hits on things. And I asked the doctor, of course, I asked the doctor, and the doctor said, you have a head injury, it'll go away. And it never did. And it's been many, many years since. And like many people that have an awakening that's quick like that, what happens is you turn away from it, you know, at 16, I did not care about this. I was like, oh, when's that cute guy gonna call me? You know, that was it. And so when all that was happening, I. I, I stuffed it away and, and as I know many mediums and many channelers, I know that's normal for a lot of them. And then at some other point in your life, you start picking it up again. And it was when I was in my mid twenties, I met a really [00:09:00] cool lady and she started teaching me tarot and she was into herbs and everything, and it was like bing. hitting a switch and going back into that energy. So I think that really was my first awakening, whether I knew it or not.

Cameron: Along your journey then, what were the things that you were most, uh, influenced by, or what sort of things helped you on your

journey, like as you started to

Brenda Edwards: I'm gonna say without naming

people, because everybody affects me on my journey and I don't wanna just name those that may have been in my life longer, but my clients, my students, my teachers, my mentors, everybody had a different flavor, I'm gonna call it. And along with all the modalities I studied, and I studied many of them over the years, but the people. were my connections. It was, I'm all about the heart. And when I [00:10:00] heart connect with somebody,

you're in the family for life unless you do something really, really horrible, But I, I take people in and I feel them and I love them, and I always look at what can I learn from this person? I learn from you. I learn from everybody I meet, whether it's a child or whoever it is. I look to what can I learn? Because one of my little pet peeves is when people take a class and they think they know it all spiritually, and I know I shouldn't care about that, but it irks me because I've been doing my personal growth work. For a long, long time, and there's not a day that goes by that I'm not working on myself.

As you know, I'm always taking classes, I'm always doing this. I have spent a fortune on learning different things and different modalities to the point that. When I go to have my taxes done every year, my, my accountant goes, did you really [00:11:00] spend this many thousands on classes? Yep, I have all the receipts, I think my first big turning point was reiki, because long ago before people even knew what Reiki was, I took it and it was so funny. I was at, um, an expo in North Hampton, mass, and I went in and I went up to this table and I was looking at their wears and they had really cool things like a metaphysical shop. And this lady came over and she said to me, oh my God, you're supposed to be taking reiki and Archangel Michael says that you are gonna go so far in this lifetime and you're gonna do this, this, and this. And I didn't even know her and my naivety. was like, okay, I am all right. Oh, by the way, I'm having a Reiki class this weekend. Oh, all right. I'll sign up But I, there was no accident. She was an awesome person and whether it was [00:12:00] her pushing her, you know, her class or not, it was meant to be, and I took. all kinds of reggae.

I always did hands-on healing before that, but the difference being that when I did Reiki, I was connected, so I wasn't using my own energy. it was the Divine's energy working through me. So I started with reiki and then I did cranial sacral therapy training, and then I did many different things. Um, hands of light, all, all different kinds of training, healing, touch for energy work, and then, Um, I did human design training, which is amazing and helps you tune into your purpose and how you should make decisions in life. I've also took, um, aromatherapy training. Oils is one of my favorite things. I love creating different oils, um, rituals. I love doing rituals though that brings me back the [00:13:00] defined feminine long ago where we were able to do a lot of that. Some of us in caves and stuff at the time, but I love all of that. Um, I'm also a life coach, so I took that training and it really turned a door for me because what I felt with the coaching was that not everybody can be coached in the same way. And most of the coaching programs, they want you cookie cutter. And to me, life isn't that way. You know, if I listen to two different people in a row that I have for coaching, their needs are gonna be very different, and I can't just, okay, this is week one, week two, week three. I look at the spiritual essence of who they are and how I'm going to get them from this point to that point. and I use coaching for that. I know you use astrology as a big tool for that as well. And so it's just a matter of [00:14:00] what you like doing and whatever. And I started the trips long ago, as you mentioned in the beginning. Love doing that because that takes me away from the phone in the computer, and it takes everyone else away from that too, so they have time to really devote to their. You know, their growth by just hiking and being quiet and being in the energies and doing rituals. So that's what I would say about all that.

Track 1: Well, one of the things that I'm hearing for sure is lifelong learner , but I'm not hearing learning to achieve something in particular. Right. Um, sometimes some people think they're like, oh, my life is this way, or I'm gonna figure out my purpose. I'm gonna go to this retreat, or I'm gonna take that course and then boom, I'm all set.

And you're actually saying quite the opposite where. . Um, it sounds like really learning is your path, but it's

it's over unfolding. Right? And so I don't hear you [00:15:00] saying, I this

because of this, or I needed to do

Brenda Edwards: It was all for me. And you know, people need to realize, I

don't like using the word healer because we don't heal anybody. They, we hold space for them to heal themselves. And I think a lot of times people get confused on that. I'm the healer. I just healed that person. No, you didn't. You created safe space for spirit to come in and work through you. for them to have the result of healing. And so sometimes with when somebody takes one class, like I said, they think, okay, this is it. No, I take 'em for me to learn because the clearer the channel I can be, the more you're gonna receive if you're open to it.

Track 1: I'm curious to know, I mean, you work obviously with many beings, , and you've been channeling for a long time. What does it feel like or what is the experience for you to be connected with Spirit, to be connected with your higher self? You know, a lot of people, they hear it and they're like, I don't, I don't know how it's happen to myself.

I don't, I [00:16:00] don't. That doesn't happen for me. But what is this like for you?

The experience of being connected to

Brenda Edwards: Soul connected I'm home.

Track 1: Hmm.

Brenda Edwards: when It's interesting cuz

with different beings, I feel different. I am very connected with Yeshua or Christ and Magdalene, very connected, and some of the other ascended masters as well. And I always feel different when Mother Mary's coming in. I feel like I wanna put my head down and, and I feel softer, you know, with different masters I feel a different way, but it, it's, it feels so good because to me it feels like I'm complete.

Track 1: Hmm.

Brenda Edwards: and I've really, and

this isn't, I guess, for lack of a better word, I'm gonna say that I've dedicated my life to that. But I don't mean it in a ego way. It's what I've chosen. It's what I wanna do. It's my path that I feel like I'm in service first. That's [00:17:00] it.

Track 1: So do you think that you're living your soul's purpose?

Brenda Edwards: do I have to answer that? Of course, I am.

Track 1: Well, I know you do, but our listeners may not

Brenda Edwards: of course I am. And I was told that on one of my journeys. Going way back, I went to Israel and Egypt in the same journey. And what ended up happening was I was on a boat on the Sea of Galilee with 18 people and I had a vision of Christ. And I will say that one was the most monumental. Moment of my life. Seriously. He, he appeared. I'm looking up, he starts talking to me. No one, everybody knew something was going on that was on the, the boat, but they, nobody came to touch me or asked what was wrong. They knew something was going on and they couldn't break it. And he spoke to me and he told me I was [00:18:00] living my path and that I would come back to Israel again.

I haven't yet. but he tells me I'm going back. And um, also, I've had a moment with Mother Mary who came through a statue that I have to speak a couple times. Those moments are just like, you know, you forget, you know, we're human. Right? And my whole thing is we have to walk in both worlds. We have to pay our bills, right?

We have to. get our car fixed or whatever on the Earth plane, but we still are there. And myself included, I get agitated sometimes because it's like, I gotta deal with a leak in my ceiling. What? That feels so petty, you know? But, I have to realize we're in physical form, so we gotta do the work and we gotta walk in both worlds. And walking in both worlds can be so beautiful. Um, a lot of [00:19:00] the highlights of my life have been trips when I laid in the sarcophagus in Israel. I mean, um, Egypt, that was just amazing. And all of those things I'm thinking. I have the right to complain about something when I've had all these experiences that were like, oh my God. You know, just take it to the heart right there, you know? And knowing that I was really living on purpose with my purpose and passion.

Track 1: Well, and that's the thing, right? You're, as long as you're following your passion, you're at least

aligned with your purpose at some level, right? Um, well, I mean, you do this work with people too. So I'm curious both for you and then maybe for people, so we'll start with you. What is, um, Maybe the biggest barrier or some of the biggest barriers to living your purpose.

Now I know you and you're doing it all the time. It's, it's your life, [00:20:00] it's your

business, it's your work, it's everything.

Brenda Edwards: I'm gonna say

everybody else around me, For me, it really is what I. What I would call distractions, but it's not distractions. It's part of the purpose, right? So when, when you have somebody in your family call you and they're going through something and you know you've gotta get all this work done and you're recording and doing videos and writing, and you've gotta stop everything to do whatever it is, right? that's walking in this world and being compassionate and loving. But sometimes I'll be honest, sometimes it, you know, if I could just be left alone to create everything I want, I'm just being honest, that can be a hindrance to me. You know, that or time. I know time doesn't exist, but it sure feels like it does down here when you're trying to balance out your life. And I read something [00:21:00] the other day that was so awesome. It said, Don't even try. You're not going to, you're not going to be able to have time for the family, time for play, time for exercise work. It's just not ever gonna be co totally balanced. So that allowed me to say, okay, so I'm striving for something that really isn't completely possible. Cuz you're always gonna have times where the family's pulling on you more, or this is pulling on you more, or whatever, you know. So I do the best I can and that's gotta be enough.

Track 1: Yeah. I mean, what would you say to someone who, or clients of yours, I mean, this is a thing you do who wants to be aligned with their purpose, who feels like, you know, they have something deeper they should be doing, or that their soul is calling them to do, but maybe they're feeling blocked or maybe they're feeling like they have so many things pulling on their energy.

Like what

advice would you give them?

Brenda Edwards: Take one small step towards your calling [00:22:00] because people try to do too much at once and I'm. I'm calling myself on this also from the past, that when you try to do too much at once, you lose your focus, you get knocked off. You know, it's like there's, I'm in Massachusetts, so like there's this route to get to California, straight route, but a lot of people will get off at every detour to see, oh, shiny thing, muts over here. And part of it is our path, but a lot of it isn't. And it's like, First of all, don't be an ego because we're on earth. We're all learning. We all make mistakes. None of us are perfect. So if you cut yourself some slack in that way and you're like, just relax, enjoy the journey. Here's the two things I would tell somebody absolutely that I'm here to teach love and to find joy. Everyone else is there. To be love and to find what brings them joy. [00:23:00] There's no spirit up there going, all right, you need to take this job over there because that's what you're supposed to be doing. No, love yourself, love others, and find joy in what you do regardless if it's working with horses, if it's, you know, working in the stock market.

Even if you love doing that, do more of it. That's what I would tell somebody. And as you follow your joy, You start to just feel so good about, okay, I'm ready to take another little action step. And they don't have to be giant ones. Making a phone call as an action step, researching something that you think you might wanna do is an action step. And then here's a spiritual phrase. Own your shit. Okay? When the stuff starts to come up. I always, I'm, I always bring it inward first. If something outside of me is happening and I don't like it, I'm like, okay, [00:24:00] what am I learning from this? Did I do this to someone? What's going on? And I get into that place to see, to own it.

Sometimes it's not mine, but I always go there first. So, people should do the same and see, what am I supposed to be learning? Because the whole piece is if you are not learning, you're gonna repeat that lesson over and over. If you have a husband that abuses you and you don't get rid of him, next thing you know if you didn't heal the lesson, rather, next thing you know you got an abuse, uh, abusive boss. friend or whatever. So we gotta be really clear on really healing. And there is some great ways to get to the core of what your issues are and really work at 'em. Because one of the things I see with people, if they took one, like I said, if they took one class on healing of some [00:25:00] kind, they think they're all healed and it's fine. No. okay. It took me till I was 60 to realize, oh my God, I have trauma. I didn't see my stuff as trauma because I kept moving through it. But other people, when you share, and I think it's so important to find ways to share in community and find your tribe, you start to see people looking at, you know, when I used to share some of the things that happened to me, not as a way to. be center stage, but to let them know you're the same as me. I just am further along because I'm older and I kept going.

So you see people look at you like, oh my God, you went through that. How did you make it out of it? Faith number one. Faith. I never lost faith with spirit ever. Sometimes I'm not happy with them, but. and I tell 'em I'm not happy with them. It's not, people go, oh my God, you say that to [00:26:00] the masters? Yeah. What the heck's going down here? What am I supposed to be doing here? I do. So I follow passion where it is sometimes for me, like this week has been a tough week. I have to put on the music, I have to dance, I have to put on some good music where I'm like, okay. I'm just a girl dancing now, and that gets me through in the moment, and then you start connecting all those moments.

Track 1: Yeah. And really one of the pieces that's resonating for me a lot in what you just shared is really that this life is just, uh, a school of lessons, right? Coming in, we have lessons and um, you know, if we don't , what'd you say? Own our shit . If we don't look at the energies that we're playing in, if we don't look at the.

Patterns, whatever. They just keep coming back and back and I mean, I know when I practice astrology or [00:27:00] if I'm doing, you know, Q H H T or past life progression work with people, these patterns that are playing in our lives generally are not the first time they're being experienced, which is why they feel so intense.

Right? But it's our unwillingness or sometimes inability. To access it, to see it, to acknowledge it, and to love it. That's really what's required to like move through something and make a choice away from an

Brenda Edwards: Totally. I see a lot of.

Track 1: what we're.

Brenda Edwards: Right, exactly. I see a lot of women come in seeking advice about relationships and no one wants to hear their part. They're, and I say women because a lot of my clients are women. I'm not picking on anybody, but they'll say, I'll see the patterns they're going through. They've gone through five guys in the last six months and. all of them are wrong, and all of them are stupid and all of them aren't evolved enough. That's my favorite. Oh, they, they don't. [00:28:00] They're not where I'm at. Right, okay. Or, I love it when women say, oh, my husband just doesn't get it. I've seen so many husbands that didn't get it, move right past them and climb the ladder. And open the door to a new level of spirituality without them even knowing So I always caution people don't say that you don't know, but a lot of these girls or women that have come in, I'm like, look at your patterns. This you are doing the same thing. You get to a certain place, you can't be emotionally intimate so you find fault with them and dump them. Until the next one comes along, and then you've got a story about that one and the next one and the next one. If it's happened to you six times in the last six months, you might wanna look at what your patterns are and they're like, I have patterns.

Yes, we all do.

Track 1: Yeah. And it's the unconscious ones that continue [00:29:00] to run our lives, right? If we become conscious of it, well that's step one. We can choose something different. Even if it's challenging to break it, whatever, fine. But becoming aware of it is really,

first it's required.

Brenda Edwards: Absolutely

Track 1: Um, um, so what do you think it means to live with purpose?

Brenda Edwards: to find joy in whatever you're doing in the moment. I mean, I just got through spring cleaning and I actually had to put on music to do that and be in my zen place as I'm washing walls. And I actually had a pretty good time. I'm exhausted, but I had a good time. I'm like, that's what it is about. Um, the coaching program I'm creating now is called Fully Divine.

It's not complete yet, but that's what it is to be fully divine. Sometimes you're cleaning the toilet bowl and washing the walls. [00:30:00] and sometimes you're in

Track 1: Which hopefully not with the same water.

Brenda Edwards: You know, I wouldn't do that. I'm Virgo, but, and the other thing is, um, it's this, sometimes you're in an ashram, sometimes you're in a temple, or sometimes you're just in nature talking to a tree. It doesn't matter. All of this is living. We're here to find. The love that we are, be reminded about the love that we are, whether it's turned on or not. I'll tell you, I've had a lot of experiences in doing work with this, you know, energy work with a lot of guys that have come to me over the years that just didn't wanna open up, couldn't let it go. Didn't think that being emotional or sharing anything was a good thing. and because I'm like everybody's mom and I [00:31:00] hold space, that loving space for people when they're on the table, so many of 'em have been able to release or just start crying for the first time and be ashamed of it and try to wipe it away.

And I'm like, oh my God, this is wonderful. How do you feel? I don't feel well. Guess what you're feeling. If you're crying, you're feeling, and to see the changes, even if I never see them again and I see what I observe for them coming up where they're going, life changes for them, and just to be able to participate in someone else's healing, I feel it's holy ground. It's like you've invited me into holy space. To be able to touch your soul and you touch mine, and then we have that unity just long enough to deal with whatever it [00:32:00] is, and I never take that lightly. People

trusting me with that.

Track 1: Yeah. Yeah. That's really beautiful. And certainly the, the message of feeling, uh, you know, and probably plenty of people who are watching know that I have no issue crying happens often. if I watch a movie that's emotional or I don't know, I just see something beautiful that happens. Um, , but you know, our emotional bodies are so significant in terms of helping us know about our alignment, right?

A lot of people are walking, I would argue most humans are walking around numb, don't know how to deal with their emotions. And I even me using that language is like incorrect. Don't know what their emotions mean. It's . We believe it's something has to be dealt with or stuffed down or thrown away or whatever.

Except we are emotional bodies. We, or excuse me, we are emotional beings. We have [00:33:00] emotional bodies, energy in emotion, emotion. Um, and it's such an important, I believe, piece of, first of all, any energy work, but tapping into our path and our purpose, how are we gonna know what brings us joy If we don't experience it?

Are we gonna know what isn't the line for us? If we don't feel frustration or irritation or sadness or whatever, um, . And so I think that's such an important lesson to bring up too, is like actually learning what your emotions mean and that it's okay not only, okay, it's literally your guidance

system.

Brenda Edwards: Yes, absolutely. And it's interesting cause I'm having a few minor health challenges, um, cancel that, but everybody says the same thing to me. This is your emotional body. because I've had a lot of stress lately because of someone in my life and what they're going through, and it's somebody very close to me, so it's hard [00:34:00] to separate out, and I'm like, yeah, yeah, I know it is. So knowing also, if we don't express our emotions, what that does to our bodies, it's kind of like when something first happens, it's out here. The furthest body away, and it's like warning, warning, warning, warning. Ugh, you got something. And then you gotta deal with it on the physical level as well. So yeah, that's a very important part.

Track 1: Well, we get lots of warning signs, but we're not always listening to them , um, until, you know, something comes. And I also wanna just share, hopefully you don't mind me putting you on the spot for anybody's listenings. Like, okay, well this is great, this spiritual woman, but that's not me. Um, Brenda loves.

Um,

Zumba. She loves to dance. She's a very normal human being, fyi, and there was a period of time in her life where she

did a lot of hanging out with the Hell's Angels,

Brenda Edwards: Yep. I did. I did. . [00:35:00] The problem was I got my motorcycle license and I was a little two Zen driving, so I'm better on the back of a bike than driving it because Spirit

said you're gonna kill yourself because you're not.

You're just like, I, I'm in that space, but I love motorcycles. I love dancing. I love animals. But yeah, I was a Zumba instructor for many years and love Latin dance. So that's one of the things that I do when I have time put on that kind of music and just dance around and forget

Track 1: yeah. So I think in wrapping up our conversation, it's this reminder as we're discovering our purpose as we're on the path, um, it's really. It's also about remembering our humanity, right? This human experience is what mattered. Yes, we're spiritual beings in other places, but we chose to come into these bodies and have experiences.

It's really easy to say, [00:36:00] you know, I'm, I'm on my spiritual path, so I'm gonna go meditate for 15 hours a day and whatever, which is fine. And if you wanna go live in an ashram in India, that's fine. I might do it at some point, who knows? But, um, but the reminder of. Well, to be fully divine is to be human also,

Brenda Edwards: Absolutely.

Track 1: remember our humanity and to enjoy life as it is. And as we do that we can follow the things that make us joyful and

will be in alignment with our passions.

Brenda Edwards: Absolutely. And I just wanna put in a little thing about you, cam. Um, I just find you so interesting that you get something in your head and you jump in up to here and you always do such a grand job at it. And, um, there's many ways that you choose to bring somebody through when they have a problem or they don't know what the problem is, but they know they're out of balance. I've observed it, I've [00:37:00] witnessed, I've experienced, and to see the way that you. Bring people through is amazing. I always call you wordsmith because it's like I could, oh, I could sit and listen to you talk all day and, and, just the wisdom that comes from many lifetimes, not just this lifetime. So I wanna thank you for having me here, and it, you and I just have that connection and it's always a good thing.

Track 1: Oh my gosh. For sure. Yes. Well, thank you for being on the episode, my soul family, and I hope that all of you listening, uh, loved our conversation too. This is a very, um, normal conversation for Brenda and I to have actually. Um, and if you'd like to connect with Brenda, find out more about her work, you can find, , her information in

the show notes.

So Thank you,

Brenda Edwards: Thank you,

My mission on this planet is to support spiritually awakening humans in discovering their soul's purpose. And I know that if you're listening to this episode, discovering your purpose matters to you [00:38:00] too. And I also know that sometimes it can feel like the spiritual journey is never ending, and that our purpose is some far off thing, but there's no need to waste precious time living without clarity and alignment.

Living with purpose can start right now. So if you're struggling to figure out what your purpose is, and as a result you're feeling frustrated, uncertain, or maybe even a little lost, then I invite you to stop spinning your wheels. Life is way too precious and you are too important. I've created an easy way for you to recenter and reconnect with your path.

I've created a sole purpose illumination session for people who are driven to know their soul's purpose. So if this is you, I invite you to book a session.

You can find the link to book this session with me in the show notes.

 I'm grateful to share this episode and time with you, my listeners. And I want you to know that our time together does not have to end here. I've also created an [00:39:00] online community where spiritually awakening people can receive my support and guidance and connect with others as they discover their own unique paths to living their soul's purpose.

Look for the link in the show notes to learn more about the path and purpose, community support, connection, and inspiration for your journey. It's all inside.

A special thanks to this week's guest for sharing their journey with us. And I want to thank you for listening to today's episode. My name is Dr. Cameron Martin, and it has been my honor to serve you on your journey of self-discovery. See you next time.
