In this soul-stirring episode of Cosmic Confluence, host Sana welcomes Amy Ray, a transformational speaker, soul mentor, and Gene Keys guide, who shares her profound journey through addiction, incarceration, and a near-death experience that became the turning point for her spiritual awakening. Amy opens up about meeting God as a divine mother, experiencing synesthesia during her overdose, and being called to guide others back to the divinity within. This is a powerful invitation to look inward, embrace the shadows, and discover the mystical in the mundane.
About the Guest: Amy Ray is a transformational mentor, mystic, and speaker who guides others through deep shadow work and inner alchemy. A survivor of addiction and incarceration, Amy now lives her mission of helping people reconnect with their divine essence through embodiment, awareness, and spiritual depth. She is the founder of Illumined Essence and shares her wisdom through writing, teaching, and 1:1 guidance.
Key Takeaways:
-
Addiction is often rooted in spiritual disconnection or ignorance of our true divine nature (a Vidya).
-
Amy’s near-death experience revealed God as a nurturing mother and led her to a path of healing and purpose.
-
Mysticism is not abstract—it’s found in everyday sacredness, like taking out the trash with gratitude.
-
Shadow work is not about fear but about bringing loving awareness to forgotten parts of ourselves.
-
No one is ever too far gone to return home to their soul.
