What if the moments you judge the most about your past are actually proof of your evolution?
In this deeply personal and insight-packed episode of The Unity Code, Medium Nicole pulls back the curtain on the real reason self-reflection can feel “cringe” — and how learning to honor your former selves becomes one of the most powerful activations on your spiritual path.
We explore the intersection of neuroscience, nervous system responses, soul agreements, and intuitive growth, revealing why your body reacts the way it does when you revisit old chapters… and why those responses are evidence that you’ve expanded beyond them.
You’ll hear:
- Why “cringe” is a biological survival mechanism rooted in primal belonging
- How past versions of you were doing the best they could with the tools they had
- What it means to shift from judgment to self-honoring
- How Spirit uses your life experiences — even the messy ones — as intentional soul curriculum
- Why there are no accidents on your timeline (only initiations and skill-building)
- How these insights set the stage for this week’s 2026 Activation Portal class on honoring your milestones and reclaiming every version of you
Nicole shares personal stories (including college, corporate life, and intuition-led decisions that changed everything) to help you see your own journey with compassion, clarity, and power.
If you’ve ever replayed old memories and felt embarrassment, shame, or discomfort — this episode will shift you into a higher perspective.
It’s time to recognize the masterpiece you’ve been sculpting all along.
Perfect for listeners interested in:
consciousness, nervous system healing, intuition development, spiritual awakening, timeline shifts, self-worth, shadow work, and soul purpose alignment.

SPEAKER_01 (02:22):
Hello there.
Welcome back to the Unity Code.
I am so excited today to talkabout what we are going to do in
this week's session of the 2026activation portal.
And I am number one astounded,astounded by how many of you
(02:43):
have signed up for this program.
Um never in my wildest dreamsdid I expect to see that many
people sign up.
I'm so thankful and grateful forall of you.
And I'm so honored to help younavigate this journey, but more
so I'm so floored that many ofyou chose you and honored you
(03:06):
and knew that you were on thecusp of change and growth and
opted to walk towards thatchange and that growth.
And that is huge.
Like that is so mind-blowinglyamazing to me how many of you
know in your intuition that thisis the right program for you.
(03:28):
So bravo.
And I know not everyone's goneout there.
I know not everyone's signed up.
I know not everyone's seen thevideo, and that's absolutely
fine.
But I would tell you that if youhave signed up and you haven't
been a part of those sessionsyet, you are missing out.
They are magic.
They are clearing andintegrations and downloads from
(03:52):
me, from my team.
And people are walking awaysaying how they blacked out
during the last clearing, whichis, by the way, the best way to
clear.
Can we talk about that for asecond?
It's the best way to clear whenyour mind physically blacks out
and you don't remember what'shappening.
That means that your energy isclearing while you don't have to
(04:14):
be conscious of it.
And this goes back to this ideathat my team has instilled in me
that healing doesn't have to behard.
It doesn't have to be hard.
We don't always have to push therock, the boulder up the hill,
right?
Like in the mythology days, wedon't have to always choose the
most difficult path.
Sometimes healing can be simple,can be small, can be your team
(04:36):
saying, I got this for you.
We're gonna black that out.
You just sit back and relax, andwe got this for you.
And how amazing is that?
How amazing is it to embracethe, I want to say the divine
feminine way of healing, ofcoming at it from love and
nurturing and respect, and notfrom the typical masculine way
(04:58):
of trying to solve it by doingsomething head on.
And so this is something I'mformulating in my head.
Um more and more to come onthat.
I haven't figured it all outquite yet.
But I agree, I agree.
And I think there's a lot of myown journey where I've proven to
myself, you know, this is whatit looks like when I do go head
(05:19):
on towards the problem, justlike I would have in corporate
America.
I'm gonna look at it, I'm gonnaanalyze it from every single
angle, and I'm gonna figure outthe best root cause way there.
And I think there's a path forthat, absolutely.
But for some of the stuff, wedon't have to heat, we don't
have to go through all thosesteps.
Sometimes we can just let it go.
Sometimes we can just shift andrelease and we don't have to
(05:41):
revisit it again because we'vealready done the work.
And that's what I'm talkingabout with this blackout thing
here.
So I'm I'm so grateful for allof you who have sent the
messages, who have participatedin the community again.
If you haven't been, if you areon this program, by the way,
we're closing that up on the15th.
I want people to, I have toclose the doors before we start
(06:01):
doing the visioning because Ineed you to clear and honor
yourself before you do thevisioning.
So if people pop in just to dothe visioning on the 2026 and
just do the activation on 2026,it's not going to be anchored in
the right energy.
You're gonna anchor yourself inold timelines.
You're gonna anchor yourself inthe worry and the chaos and the
energy that we've all beenexperiencing in 2025.
(06:24):
And that's why these steps areso important to clear, to honor,
and then to activate and helpyou get into the new year
energy.
So I'll be shutting that down onthe 15th.
So sign up if you haven'talready.
Um, and if you are in and youhaven't watched the videos, I
really encourage you to do it.
They're they're only an hour.
Everyone can find an hour out ofthe day.
I promise you it is going to beworth your time.
(06:48):
And so shifting gears into thetopic this week in that class.
And I want to give this asalmost a precursor.
This is not going to be what theclass is on, but it kind of is.
And I want to talk abouthonoring ourselves and honoring
every single aspect ofourselves.
(07:08):
And how and why that can be souncomfortable.
I really feel called to use theword cringe, probably because of
my children, but it is souncomfortable.
It is so um, oh, you don't wantto do it.
You don't always want to lookback and see all these different
versions of yourself.
And I want to talk about thewhy.
(07:29):
Um, why does that feeluncomfortable?
And then why is it also soimportant to do that?
Which we are going to be doingin this class tomorrow on
Thursday.
And so if we take a step backand you think about all the
different versions of yourselfacross your life, across maybe
(07:50):
the last nine years, maybeacross even this year.
And there are so many timeswhere I have relayed my life and
what has happened to me and mycringe moments over and over and
over in my head.
And it's been very, veryuncomfortable.
And it creates this pattern ofnegativity, it creates this
(08:11):
pattern of self-judgment, ofself-rejection in looking at who
I was and saying, why didn't Iknow better at the time?
And so as we think about um, aswe like take, I want to take a
(08:32):
few steps back and I want totell a story a little bit here
as well, because I think it's soimportant to recognize that our
our need to fit in, our need tobe our best selves, this need
for perfectionism is based inthe biology of who we are.
It is in the biology of ourbrain, our ego, our our caveman
(08:55):
brain, our need to survive,right?
Because if you think aboutcaveman days, I always like to
bring it there because it's sobasic, it's so primal, it's so
easy to understand becauseeverything is so black and
white, right?
If you didn't fit in, if youdidn't do what the group needed
you to do, then they wouldprobably kick you out of the
(09:16):
group and/or the the group wouldstarve to death and die, right?
If I were, as a woman, agatherer back in the day, maybe
taking care of the children, andI chose to do something
different, and I chose to notwant to follow the status quo of
everybody else, I would not begathering food.
I would not be watching the nextgeneration of children that were
(09:37):
going to help lead, right?
That the literal future of thetribe would be at risk.
And so, of course, if I chose todo that, I would be ostracized
from the group.
I would likely be either killedor kicked out of the group,
probably killed.
And so I would have not onlysocial, uh, um, like so what's
(09:58):
the right?
What do you want to say?
You've probably already thoughtof it in your head.
Like, I would be sociallyostracized and kicked out of the
group, but also my life would beat risk because they would maybe
literally kill me.
If I was off of my own, Iwouldn't be able to survive on
my own.
And so we have this deep-seatedbiology to belong.
We have this deep-seated biologyto not ruffle feathers, right?
(10:21):
To maintain the status quo, tomaintain the social norms, to,
and that's that goes, you know,within overall society and also
within your family.
Let's talk about that because ifyou don't follow the status quo
of the family, how many of youare the black sheep listening to
this?
And you've witnessed andexperienced and lived through
the toxicity and the trauma ofyour own families because you
(10:43):
have stood up.
Oh, it's different.
You have stood up for yourselfor different values or beliefs
that you hold.
Right.
And how many times do they pushback on you to try to put you
back in your place, to try toget you back in the box so that
you maintain the status quo ofthe group?
(11:04):
And there is going to be um theWeather Vene Witches, I am going
to do a podcast on that, I thinktomorrow, in the sometime in the
next few days, that talks aboutthat crab mentality.
And just to iterate before weget there, the crab mentality is
if you take one crab, put onecrab in a bucket, it can easily
get out by itself.
(11:24):
But if you put a lot of crabs,any more than one, if you put
two plus crabs in a bucket, theywill not get out because as one
tries to climb up the sides, theother ones will pull them down.
And so that's what I'm talkingabout here.
That's why it feels souncomfortable to be different,
(11:46):
to stand up for yourself, to dosomething different.
Because you are literally inyour nervous system programmed
to fit in, programmed to do thesame as others, programmed to
assimilate in the organizations,the families, the cultures that
you are raised in.
(12:08):
And so when you look back onthat, you might have an actual
cringe moment from your nervoussystem feeling that doesn't feel
safe.
That felt very insecure.
That felt like, ooh, and becausewhat happens is in your brain,
your brain can't tell thedifference between actual
(12:30):
threats to your life andpotential worried thoughts of
that.
Your nervous system in yourbrain reacts the same way.
So as you are recalling thesethings in your past when you
stood up and you didn't feelsafe, you're reactivating those
same centers in your brain allover again, like it's happening
in the current moment.
So not only are you trainedsocially to fit in, but also
(12:54):
your brain is giving you thesame exact nervous system
response as if you were in thatpresent moment.
And that's why it feels socringe and gross to look back at
these moments in your life aboutwho you were, right?
Maybe doing something differentfrom the status quo and why you
(13:14):
have this physical response toit.
The heart palpitations, thesweating, the um, you know, the
fight or flight or freezeresponse that happens because
your system is programmed thatway.
Now, can you deprogram that?
I I don't know.
Probably, I don't know.
It would take a long time, buthonestly, this is all rooted in
(13:35):
your system as a human, in theway that your body functions for
safety.
And I'm not talking about egobecause I think ego is in the
mind.
But I do think that there'sthere is a primal part of you
that will always be this way.
And your goal isn't necessarilyto eliminate that from
happening, it is to recognizewhen it is happening and not let
(13:58):
that energy take over, not letyour nervous system rule the
roost and instead acknowledgewhat your nervous system is
doing, understanding that it'strying to protect you and keep
you safe, but also keeping thedistance saying, I recognize
that trigger in my nervoussystem, but I don't need to
respond that way.
Right?
I can take a moment and let mynervous system calm down before
(14:23):
I respond and react.
And there's a wonderful, Ican't, I would reference it if I
remembered the reference, butthere's something about like
wait 90 seconds.
Whenever you're having a massivenervous system response, wait 90
seconds.
Don't do anything for 90seconds.
And and your like that initialrush of adrenaline or cortisol
(14:45):
or whatever that hormone is, ittends to go away or at least
reduces in the 90 seconds.
And so you're able to make amuch more um even keeled
response to what is happening inthat moment.
And so this isn't like you'retraining your nervous system.
You're training yourself awayfrom your nervous system ruling
(15:05):
everything.
So that is one way and oneexample of why it can feel very
cringe to look back at self-pastversions of yourself because you
might have done things that feltunsafe in those moments and
you're feeling it all again.
That's number one.
Number two is this is so funnybecause this come, this has come
(15:29):
up recently on a few text changewith with a few of my friends,
because we look back atourselves in the past and judge
us by what we know in thepresent.
Let me say that differentlybecause it's so important that
you make sure you understandthis.
I can look back at my, let'ssay, freshman year and college
(15:52):
self right now as a 41-year-old.
And I can look back at my age, Iwas 17.
I started school early when Iwas little.
Fun fact about me.
I was um in preschool at homedoing third grade math.
So my mom was like, You're not,you're not missing a year.
I was after the cutoff.
(16:13):
Um, and so you can look back atyourself.
I can look back at myself, my my17-year-old self in my first
year of college and be like, Iwas so fucking cringe then.
I had no idea who I was.
I was a girl that grew up withmusic and show choir and also
(16:33):
loving math.
And I went to business school.
Why?
Because my boyfriend at the timewas at business school.
He's I'm married to him now, soit wasn't a bad decision.
But I ended up going to collegeto study computers, which I love
computers.
Love it.
I've been literally making webpages since 1993 when I've got
(18:59):
my first computer.
So I love computers, as most ofyou who work with me know, like
I can whip out a web page in anhour.
Um, and so I was this like musictheater liberal arts nerd going
to business school to studycomputers.
I was so fucking out of myelement, right?
Should have known then.
(19:21):
Because I was surrounded by abunch.
Can I say it?
I'm gonna say this.
It's gonna sound judgy.
It is judgy.
A bunch of wrench, pompousassholes whose daddies bought
them prowlers that they weredriving onto campus.
Okay.
Uh, you ain't seen nothing untilyou were a poor kid from lower
(19:41):
middle class going into abusiness school.
Damn.
Did I felt, did I feel sofucking out of place?
I felt so out of place that Ididn't last three weeks living
on campus.
I moved back home.
That's how out of place I went.
That's how unsafe I felt in thatenvironment.
That's how out of the socialnorms I felt that I moved home
(20:06):
and I worked full time duringcollege.
(22:18):
Hindsight, fantastic idea.
Um, did not walk away with a lotof debt because I took put every
money I had towards towardsthat, um, towards my college
expenses, et cetera, tuition.
And if I look back at that time,I can so easily judge it.
(22:40):
I can so easily judge that Iran, that um, that I felt so out
of place, that I have thisnervous system triggers of, oh
my God, who was I?
Who even was I?
I shaved my head.
Like I was um, I was trying tostand out and be somebody
totally different because Ididn't just assimilate into the
(23:01):
culture of the business school.
I went 180 in the oppositedirection and I said, fuck all
these kids.
I'm gonna be the exact oppositeof them.
And I wore, and I still do,giant hooded sweatshirts to
college, right?
Like I I didn't participate inany clubs.
SPEAKER_00 (23:16):
I was like, I do not want to be a part of this
culture.
And yet I still thrived.
SPEAKER_01 (23:26):
And yet I still graduated top of my class while
working full-time, whilecommuting to college every day.
Right?
Because when you look back, andthis is what I want you to think
about, when I look back at who Iwas then, even though I was
(23:48):
still finding who I was, there'sparts of me that I'm so proud of
because I knew I was different.
I knew that I would not assimil.
Could I have done it better?
Absolutely, but I knew that Iwould not assimilate into that
culture.
I knew that hard work andintegrity and ethics were gonna
make get me through that, right?
(24:09):
I played the game of businessschool so differently they did
not see me coming because Iworked hard, I worked my ass
off, and I let my values lead meunderneath the surface, even
though on the surface I looklike a hot fucking mess.
(24:30):
And so you can always look backto these past versions of
yourself and find the silverlining and the common threads of
what you can be proud of.
You can always find that becausethe reality is that at any given
(24:52):
moment in our life, we do thebest with what we know and what
we have at the time.
Everyone does.
Do you think anyone consciouslymakes a bad decision?
Does anyone consciously decideto be an asshole?
I I don't think so.
Like, I honestly I'm thatperson.
I honestly don't think so.
(25:12):
I think that things happen andwe get in bad moods and it comes
out of us because it's ournervous system response, but I
don't think that anyone choosesto be an asshole.
I think that people genuinelytry to be their best selves and
show up in the best way thatthey possibly can that day, and
that's gonna look differentevery single day.
And so when you're takingyourself now, when I'm taking
(25:33):
myself now at 41 and I'm judgingmyself of who I was at 17, it is
so easy to fall into the trap ofwhy didn't I know better?
Right?
How did I not see that coming?
What were the red flags that Imissed?
And so I'm just asking you toshift your perspective to say,
(25:54):
wow, that was a really hard timefor me.
And I did a really good jobnavigating through that.
Because I couldn't be41-year-old Nicole today if I
didn't do what I did at 17, if Ididn't do what I did at 23, at
27, at 32, right?
(26:15):
Like I wouldn't be who I amright now if I didn't find my
way and navigate my way throughall of those cringe moments,
always led by my values andalways doing what I thought was
the right thing at the time,which has slowly evolved me.
It's like Michelangelo's David,everybody.
It was like chip by chip, themessage.
(26:37):
Masterpiece has come together.
And don't you think thatMichelangelo probably screwed up
a couple times along the way?
And yet he still created amasterpiece.
Maybe he didn't.
I feel like he did becausethat's the reality.
Nothing is perfect.
And so you have the choice.
You have the choice to eitherlook back at yourself and judge
(26:59):
yourself from your currentstandpoint, from your current
knowledge, from your currentlessons that you've already
lived.
Or you can take a moment tounderstand and remind yourselves
and put your back, put yourselfback in those shoes and say,
where did I, where am I proud ofmyself?
Where did I hold steady?
(27:21):
Where did my values show up?
Because I'll tell you what.
If you look back and you feelcringe, I love that.
If you feel uncomfortable, Ilove that.
Do you know why?
Because you have grown sincethen.
(27:43):
You have changed since then.
Your perspective has grown andchanged, and you've become a new
and better person because ofwhat you've been through.
And so that cringe, that feelingof disgust, that feeling of, oh
my God, I can't believe I didthat.
I can't believe that I used todo that.
(28:04):
That feeling is the proof ofyour evolution.
And I want to celebrate all ofthose moments that have led you
to the current moment.
And so that's what this podcastis about, everybody, is that
every single twist and turn inyour journey, good or bad, light
(28:28):
or dark, um, empowering ordisempowering, even when you got
married and got divorced, youknow, six months later, right?
Like that's what I'm talkingabout.
It doesn't matter because everysingle moment has led you to who
we're who and where you aretoday.
And here's the big kicker.
Here is the biggest thing that Ihave come into the realization
(28:50):
of since working with spirit.
And I think I probably couldhave had this podcast episode
without me diving into thespiritual world.
But here is the reality of whatI've learned now that I am so
much closer with my team withspirit is that everything has
purpose.
Everything has purpose.
(29:10):
Every twist and turn you've beenon, do you think that they were
accidents?
Do you think that they were justmissteps?
Because I promise you theyweren't.
I promise you that with everyside quest that you have been
on, you have learned adifferent, a different skill, a
different tool, a differentcoping mechanism, a different
way to navigate life, et cetera,that you wouldn't have learned
(29:34):
otherwise.
And that's what I mean when Isay there are no accidents.
There are no accidents.
Are there delays?
Sure.
Are there accidents?
No, because everything andeverything that you are is built
in those small moments, in thoseside quests, and these in these
(29:54):
lessons that we've learned.
And your soul has probablyplanned most of them before you
came here because you needed tolearn that lesson.
You needed that tool, you neededthat that experience, that
perspective along the way tohelp you with something else
down the line.
And so I'm gonna go one further.
I'm gonna go one further, okay?
(30:16):
Because, and I'm doing this liveoff the cuff.
I've not completely unplannedthis analysis right now.
But let's take my cringe assself back in the college days
and me deciding not toparticipate in the culture of
business school.
What was it teaching me?
(30:38):
So business school taught me thefinancial foundation that
allowed me to feel comfortableleaving my corporate job.
Point blank.
Point fucking blank.
Because if I didn't go tobusiness school, I wouldn't have
learned to put money into my401k as soon as I graduated,
right?
I wouldn't learn the time valueof money.
I wouldn't learn aboutopportunity cost.
I wouldn't learn that as soon asyou drive a car off the parking
(31:00):
lot, if it's a brand new car, itdepreciates by like 20%, right?
Maybe not nowadays.
But I wouldn't have learned thefinancial acumen that allows me
to feel comfortable and safe inthe decision of leaving my
six-figure job.
(31:21):
Right?
So step one, needed to go tobusiness school.
Needed to go there.
Number two, the fact of notfitting in socially within
business school, but alsoshowing up and changing the
(31:42):
rules of the game and not doingthings the way that everybody
else has done it.
Was proving me that I can go upagainst institutions.
I can go up against social normsas long as I'm living by my
(32:02):
values, living by my truth, anddoing what I think is
authentically the right thing.
And I will come out on top everysingle time.
That's what that journey hasshowed me.
I wouldn't be where I was, Iwouldn't be who I was in
corporate America doing the samething, right?
I wouldn't be out here talkingto you as the former corporate
(32:25):
executive, right?
Former Catholic faith person.
If I didn't learn that lesson ofit's okay to feel uncomfortable,
but living by your values andliving in alignment with
yourself is always going to beyour best and truest path.
And getting comfortable withpeople feeling uncomfortable
with me.
(32:45):
That's what I learned.
And so again, I needed to go tobusiness school.
There is no accident in that.
I needed to feel different.
I needed to do different becausethat was the learning ground to
get me to you hearing me in thiscurrent moment.
SPEAKER_00 (33:06):
Let me see if I can break it down into a smaller
example.
SPEAKER_01 (33:14):
Um spirits like, can we talk drugs for a second?
Is that okay?
If you got kids around, youmight want to pause it.
Not that it's bad because Idon't do anything ever, but my
entire life I have been offeredaltering substances.
Let's put it that way.
Um, in my entire, like up tolike started at 13, always have
(33:36):
been offered my entire life.
And I'm talking like fromfamily, right?
From friends, from strangers.
Like the first time I went toAmsterdam, I literally stumbled.
Has anyone ever experiencedthis?
Dump stumbled off the train at 6a.m.
after my red eye flight came in,left the train station, somebody
immediately offered me drugs.
Immediately.
(33:57):
And I have always said no.
I mean, no, is anyone surprised?
Those of you that you know,you're like Nicole's never done
anything.
It's totally true.
Um, way too high strung for thatshit.
And so my entire life, no, no,no, I don't want it.
I don't want it.
I don't want it.
I don't want it.
Right.
Even now to this day, you know,as a metaphysical practitioner,
(34:22):
I can't tell you how many timesI'm offered like shrooms and
ayahuasca.
And uh with what's the frog one?
You know what I'm talking about.
Um, where you you have the sick,this is a thing, everybody, if
you're unaware.
Um it begins with it's twosyllables, it begins with a K.
Um, it's like you you ingest thepoisonous frog juice.
(34:48):
Right?
Um But every single time I'vesaid no, I've said no, I've said
no.
Right.
And and and that's my journey.
So let me see what the hell thelesson is in this that spirit
wants me to talk about this.
Because again, everybody hasasked me over and over again,
and every single moment I'vesaid no, or these micro moments
(35:09):
where I stay in alignment withwho I am.
Because the reality is, is thatI don't need, I've never wanted,
I've always wanted to maintainmaintain control, totally honest
with you.
Never liked mind-alteringsubstances, period.
Never, um, never something I'veever wanted to do.
Probably lived a lifetime in the70s where I overdosed on
(35:29):
everything ever.
Um, however, as we get into thiscurrent moment of my spiritual
journey, wouldn't it be fuckingcool to be able to access what
everybody else has accessed?
But here's the reality is that Inever needed to access it
because I can access that nowwithout any sort of drugs,
without any sort ofmind-altering substances.
(35:51):
I can go out into the galaxiesand feel high as a kite without
ever leaving my physical state,without ever needing differing
drugs, because the mind is avery powerful tool, right?
And I can, I can access the farreaches of the universe and have
that same experience withouthaving to lose my mind or um
(36:15):
without having to alter thechemicals in my brain.
I don't, why am I talking aboutthis?
Let me ask my team.
And the the reason is they'retelling me it's all about your
instincts and your knowing andyour um and and following your
(36:36):
intuition.
And so as you look back in thesemoments and you're like, I don't
know why I did that.
I don't know why I went to myfirst medium.
I felt called to.
Part of that is your soul.
So there's something in there,and I don't know what it is.
I'm gonna drop this and run withall of you.
Take a moment at thosehistorical moments in your time
(36:58):
where you've made decision andyou don't know why, because it
will be the direction from yoursoul or the direction from
spirit.
And those will likely be majorturning points in your life
and/or proof of who you are as asoul at your deepest level, at
your integration, at yourfrequency level, the purest
(37:21):
reflection of you.
And find yourself in thosemoments, find your truth in
those moments, find the magic ofspirit in your soul leading the
way down these twists and turns,down these alleys, down these
side quests that you've been on,and reflect back about how
(37:48):
amazing you are, how guided andloved and supportive you are,
because there are no accidentsin your life.
And instead, understand theperspective of what they taught
you, understand the value of howyou got through it, and also
give yourself grace and love forliving through and navigating
(38:13):
through probably some very darkmoments in your life and how you
have survived.
You have come here, you arestill here, you still have a
story to tell.
So when you start looking atthese themes, it's gonna be so
important.
And it will help you immenselydiscover who you are and what
(38:36):
you are meant to do here.
Because the parallels betweenour lives and the lives and who
we are as souls and the livesthat we lay out as souls before
before we come here, there areno accidents.
So when people come to me andthey ask, well, what's my path?
I can often reflect back attheir entire journey and show
(38:57):
them that every single stepalong the way, they have been
walking that path.
And that this path is nothingnew.
It's just a continuation of thejourney that you've already been
on.
And so as I close this out, whatI'm hearing in my head is the
Oasis song of Don't Look Back inAnger.
(39:18):
So go listen to that song, goreflect back.
Um, and if you are in the classtomorrow, bring your things.
We are asking everybody to bringartifacts that represent your
milestones, your growth, yourprogress, the different phases
of you, either in the last yearor the last nine years.
And we are going to do somereally cool stuff with that.
(39:40):
So I can't wait to see you allthere.
I am sending you all the love.
Happy it's Wednesday today forme.
So happy Wednesday, and I willsee you all very soon.
Take care.
Hello there.
Welcome back to the Unity Code.
I am so excited today to talkabout what we are going to do in
this week's session of the 2026activation portal.
And I am number one astounded,astounded by how many of you
(02:43):
have signed up for this program.
Um never in my wildest dreamsdid I expect to see that many
people sign up.
I'm so thankful and grateful forall of you.
And I'm so honored to help younavigate this journey, but more
so I'm so floored that many ofyou chose you and honored you
(03:06):
and knew that you were on thecusp of change and growth and
opted to walk towards thatchange and that growth.
And that is huge.
Like that is so mind-blowinglyamazing to me how many of you
know in your intuition that thisis the right program for you.
(03:28):
So bravo.
And I know not everyone's goneout there.
I know not everyone's signed up.
I know not everyone's seen thevideo, and that's absolutely
fine.
But I would tell you that if youhave signed up and you haven't
been a part of those sessionsyet, you are missing out.
They are magic.
They are clearing andintegrations and downloads from
(03:52):
me, from my team.
And people are walking awaysaying how they blacked out
during the last clearing, whichis, by the way, the best way to
clear.
Can we talk about that for asecond?
It's the best way to clear whenyour mind physically blacks out
and you don't remember what'shappening.
That means that your energy isclearing while you don't have to
(04:14):
be conscious of it.
And this goes back to this ideathat my team has instilled in me
that healing doesn't have to behard.
It doesn't have to be hard.
We don't always have to push therock, the boulder up the hill,
right?
Like in the mythology days, wedon't have to always choose the
most difficult path.
Sometimes healing can be simple,can be small, can be your team
(04:36):
saying, I got this for you.
We're gonna black that out.
You just sit back and relax, andwe got this for you.
And how amazing is that?
How amazing is it to embracethe, I want to say the divine
feminine way of healing, ofcoming at it from love and
nurturing and respect, and notfrom the typical masculine way
(04:58):
of trying to solve it by doingsomething head on.
And so this is something I'mformulating in my head.
Um more and more to come onthat.
I haven't figured it all outquite yet.
But I agree, I agree.
And I think there's a lot of myown journey where I've proven to
myself, you know, this is whatit looks like when I do go head
(05:19):
on towards the problem, justlike I would have in corporate
America.
I'm gonna look at it, I'm gonnaanalyze it from every single
angle, and I'm gonna figure outthe best root cause way there.
And I think there's a path forthat, absolutely.
But for some of the stuff, wedon't have to heat, we don't
have to go through all thosesteps.
Sometimes we can just let it go.
Sometimes we can just shift andrelease and we don't have to
(05:41):
revisit it again because we'vealready done the work.
And that's what I'm talkingabout with this blackout thing
here.
So I'm I'm so grateful for allof you who have sent the
messages, who have participatedin the community again.
If you haven't been, if you areon this program, by the way,
we're closing that up on the15th.
I want people to, I have toclose the doors before we start
(06:01):
doing the visioning because Ineed you to clear and honor
yourself before you do thevisioning.
So if people pop in just to dothe visioning on the 2026 and
just do the activation on 2026,it's not going to be anchored in
the right energy.
You're gonna anchor yourself inold timelines.
You're gonna anchor yourself inthe worry and the chaos and the
energy that we've all beenexperiencing in 2025.
(06:24):
And that's why these steps areso important to clear, to honor,
and then to activate and helpyou get into the new year
energy.
So I'll be shutting that down onthe 15th.
So sign up if you haven'talready.
Um, and if you are in and youhaven't watched the videos, I
really encourage you to do it.
They're they're only an hour.
Everyone can find an hour out ofthe day.
I promise you it is going to beworth your time.
(06:48):
And so shifting gears into thetopic this week in that class.
And I want to give this asalmost a precursor.
This is not going to be what theclass is on, but it kind of is.
And I want to talk abouthonoring ourselves and honoring
every single aspect ofourselves.
(07:08):
And how and why that can be souncomfortable.
I really feel called to use theword cringe, probably because of
my children, but it is souncomfortable.
It is so um, oh, you don't wantto do it.
You don't always want to lookback and see all these different
versions of yourself.
And I want to talk about thewhy.
(07:29):
Um, why does that feeluncomfortable?
And then why is it also soimportant to do that?
Which we are going to be doingin this class tomorrow on
Thursday.
And so if we take a step backand you think about all the
different versions of yourselfacross your life, across maybe
(07:50):
the last nine years, maybeacross even this year.
And there are so many timeswhere I have relayed my life and
what has happened to me and mycringe moments over and over and
over in my head.
And it's been very, veryuncomfortable.
And it creates this pattern ofnegativity, it creates this
(08:11):
pattern of self-judgment, ofself-rejection in looking at who
I was and saying, why didn't Iknow better at the time?
And so as we think about um, aswe like take, I want to take a
(08:32):
few steps back and I want totell a story a little bit here
as well, because I think it's soimportant to recognize that our
our need to fit in, our need tobe our best selves, this need
for perfectionism is based inthe biology of who we are.
It is in the biology of ourbrain, our ego, our our caveman
(08:55):
brain, our need to survive,right?
Because if you think aboutcaveman days, I always like to
bring it there because it's sobasic, it's so primal, it's so
easy to understand becauseeverything is so black and
white, right?
If you didn't fit in, if youdidn't do what the group needed
you to do, then they wouldprobably kick you out of the
(09:16):
group and/or the the group wouldstarve to death and die, right?
If I were, as a woman, agatherer back in the day, maybe
taking care of the children, andI chose to do something
different, and I chose to notwant to follow the status quo of
everybody else, I would not begathering food.
I would not be watching the nextgeneration of children that were
(09:37):
going to help lead, right?
That the literal future of thetribe would be at risk.
And so, of course, if I chose todo that, I would be ostracized
from the group.
I would likely be either killedor kicked out of the group,
probably killed.
And so I would have not onlysocial, uh, um, like so what's
(09:58):
the right?
What do you want to say?
You've probably already thoughtof it in your head.
Like, I would be sociallyostracized and kicked out of the
group, but also my life would beat risk because they would maybe
literally kill me.
If I was off of my own, Iwouldn't be able to survive on
my own.
And so we have this deep-seatedbiology to belong.
We have this deep-seated biologyto not ruffle feathers, right?
(10:21):
To maintain the status quo, tomaintain the social norms, to,
and that's that goes, you know,within overall society and also
within your family.
Let's talk about that because ifyou don't follow the status quo
of the family, how many of youare the black sheep listening to
this?
And you've witnessed andexperienced and lived through
the toxicity and the trauma ofyour own families because you
(10:43):
have stood up.
Oh, it's different.
You have stood up for yourselfor different values or beliefs
that you hold.
Right.
And how many times do they pushback on you to try to put you
back in your place, to try toget you back in the box so that
you maintain the status quo ofthe group?
(11:04):
And there is going to be um theWeather Vene Witches, I am going
to do a podcast on that, I thinktomorrow, in the sometime in the
next few days, that talks aboutthat crab mentality.
And just to iterate before weget there, the crab mentality is
if you take one crab, put onecrab in a bucket, it can easily
get out by itself.
(11:24):
But if you put a lot of crabs,any more than one, if you put
two plus crabs in a bucket, theywill not get out because as one
tries to climb up the sides, theother ones will pull them down.
And so that's what I'm talkingabout here.
That's why it feels souncomfortable to be different,
(11:46):
to stand up for yourself, to dosomething different.
Because you are literally inyour nervous system programmed
to fit in, programmed to do thesame as others, programmed to
assimilate in the organizations,the families, the cultures that
you are raised in.
(12:08):
And so when you look back onthat, you might have an actual
cringe moment from your nervoussystem feeling that doesn't feel
safe.
That felt very insecure.
That felt like, ooh, and becausewhat happens is in your brain,
your brain can't tell thedifference between actual
(12:30):
threats to your life andpotential worried thoughts of
that.
Your nervous system in yourbrain reacts the same way.
So as you are recalling thesethings in your past when you
stood up and you didn't feelsafe, you're reactivating those
same centers in your brain allover again, like it's happening
in the current moment.
So not only are you trainedsocially to fit in, but also
(12:54):
your brain is giving you thesame exact nervous system
response as if you were in thatpresent moment.
And that's why it feels socringe and gross to look back at
these moments in your life aboutwho you were, right?
Maybe doing something differentfrom the status quo and why you
(13:14):
have this physical response toit.
The heart palpitations, thesweating, the um, you know, the
fight or flight or freezeresponse that happens because
your system is programmed thatway.
Now, can you deprogram that?
I I don't know.
Probably, I don't know.
It would take a long time, buthonestly, this is all rooted in
(13:35):
your system as a human, in theway that your body functions for
safety.
And I'm not talking about egobecause I think ego is in the
mind.
But I do think that there'sthere is a primal part of you
that will always be this way.
And your goal isn't necessarilyto eliminate that from
happening, it is to recognizewhen it is happening and not let
(13:58):
that energy take over, not letyour nervous system rule the
roost and instead acknowledgewhat your nervous system is
doing, understanding that it'strying to protect you and keep
you safe, but also keeping thedistance saying, I recognize
that trigger in my nervoussystem, but I don't need to
respond that way.
Right?
I can take a moment and let mynervous system calm down before
(14:23):
I respond and react.
And there's a wonderful, Ican't, I would reference it if I
remembered the reference, butthere's something about like
wait 90 seconds.
Whenever you're having a massivenervous system response, wait 90
seconds.
Don't do anything for 90seconds.
And and your like that initialrush of adrenaline or cortisol
(14:45):
or whatever that hormone is, ittends to go away or at least
reduces in the 90 seconds.
And so you're able to make amuch more um even keeled
response to what is happening inthat moment.
And so this isn't like you'retraining your nervous system.
You're training yourself awayfrom your nervous system ruling
(15:05):
everything.
So that is one way and oneexample of why it can feel very
cringe to look back at self-pastversions of yourself because you
might have done things that feltunsafe in those moments and
you're feeling it all again.
That's number one.
Number two is this is so funnybecause this come, this has come
(15:29):
up recently on a few text changewith with a few of my friends,
because we look back atourselves in the past and judge
us by what we know in thepresent.
Let me say that differentlybecause it's so important that
you make sure you understandthis.
I can look back at my, let'ssay, freshman year and college
(15:52):
self right now as a 41-year-old.
And I can look back at my age, Iwas 17.
I started school early when Iwas little.
Fun fact about me.
I was um in preschool at homedoing third grade math.
So my mom was like, You're not,you're not missing a year.
I was after the cutoff.
(16:13):
Um, and so you can look back atyourself.
I can look back at myself, my my17-year-old self in my first
year of college and be like, Iwas so fucking cringe then.
I had no idea who I was.
I was a girl that grew up withmusic and show choir and also
(16:33):
loving math.
And I went to business school.
Why?
Because my boyfriend at the timewas at business school.
He's I'm married to him now, soit wasn't a bad decision.
But I ended up going to collegeto study computers, which I love
computers.
Love it.
I've been literally making webpages since 1993 when I've got
(18:59):
my first computer.
So I love computers, as most ofyou who work with me know, like
I can whip out a web page in anhour.
Um, and so I was this like musictheater liberal arts nerd going
to business school to studycomputers.
I was so fucking out of myelement, right?
Should have known then.
(19:21):
Because I was surrounded by abunch.
Can I say it?
I'm gonna say this.
It's gonna sound judgy.
It is judgy.
A bunch of wrench, pompousassholes whose daddies bought
them prowlers that they weredriving onto campus.
Okay.
Uh, you ain't seen nothing untilyou were a poor kid from lower
(19:41):
middle class going into abusiness school.
Damn.
Did I felt, did I feel sofucking out of place?
I felt so out of place that Ididn't last three weeks living
on campus.
I moved back home.
That's how out of place I went.
That's how unsafe I felt in thatenvironment.
That's how out of the socialnorms I felt that I moved home
(20:06):
and I worked full time duringcollege.
(22:18):
Hindsight, fantastic idea.
Um, did not walk away with a lotof debt because I took put every
money I had towards towardsthat, um, towards my college
expenses, et cetera, tuition.
And if I look back at that time,I can so easily judge it.
(22:40):
I can so easily judge that Iran, that um, that I felt so out
of place, that I have thisnervous system triggers of, oh
my God, who was I?
Who even was I?
I shaved my head.
Like I was um, I was trying tostand out and be somebody
totally different because Ididn't just assimilate into the
(23:01):
culture of the business school.
I went 180 in the oppositedirection and I said, fuck all
these kids.
I'm gonna be the exact oppositeof them.
And I wore, and I still do,giant hooded sweatshirts to
college, right?
Like I I didn't participate inany clubs.
SPEAKER_00 (23:16):
I was like, I do not want to be a part of this
culture.
And yet I still thrived.
SPEAKER_01 (23:26):
And yet I still graduated top of my class while
working full-time, whilecommuting to college every day.
Right?
Because when you look back, andthis is what I want you to think
about, when I look back at who Iwas then, even though I was
(23:48):
still finding who I was, there'sparts of me that I'm so proud of
because I knew I was different.
I knew that I would not assimil.
Could I have done it better?
Absolutely, but I knew that Iwould not assimilate into that
culture.
I knew that hard work andintegrity and ethics were gonna
make get me through that, right?
(24:09):
I played the game of businessschool so differently they did
not see me coming because Iworked hard, I worked my ass
off, and I let my values lead meunderneath the surface, even
though on the surface I looklike a hot fucking mess.
(24:30):
And so you can always look backto these past versions of
yourself and find the silverlining and the common threads of
what you can be proud of.
You can always find that becausethe reality is that at any given
(24:52):
moment in our life, we do thebest with what we know and what
we have at the time.
Everyone does.
Do you think anyone consciouslymakes a bad decision?
Does anyone consciously decideto be an asshole?
I I don't think so.
Like, I honestly I'm thatperson.
I honestly don't think so.
(25:12):
I think that things happen andwe get in bad moods and it comes
out of us because it's ournervous system response, but I
don't think that anyone choosesto be an asshole.
I think that people genuinelytry to be their best selves and
show up in the best way thatthey possibly can that day, and
that's gonna look differentevery single day.
And so when you're takingyourself now, when I'm taking
(25:33):
myself now at 41 and I'm judgingmyself of who I was at 17, it is
so easy to fall into the trap ofwhy didn't I know better?
Right?
How did I not see that coming?
What were the red flags that Imissed?
And so I'm just asking you toshift your perspective to say,
(25:54):
wow, that was a really hard timefor me.
And I did a really good jobnavigating through that.
Because I couldn't be41-year-old Nicole today if I
didn't do what I did at 17, if Ididn't do what I did at 23, at
27, at 32, right?
(26:15):
Like I wouldn't be who I amright now if I didn't find my
way and navigate my way throughall of those cringe moments,
always led by my values andalways doing what I thought was
the right thing at the time,which has slowly evolved me.
It's like Michelangelo's David,everybody.
It was like chip by chip, themessage.
(26:37):
Masterpiece has come together.
And don't you think thatMichelangelo probably screwed up
a couple times along the way?
And yet he still created amasterpiece.
Maybe he didn't.
I feel like he did becausethat's the reality.
Nothing is perfect.
And so you have the choice.
You have the choice to eitherlook back at yourself and judge
(26:59):
yourself from your currentstandpoint, from your current
knowledge, from your currentlessons that you've already
lived.
Or you can take a moment tounderstand and remind yourselves
and put your back, put yourselfback in those shoes and say,
where did I, where am I proud ofmyself?
Where did I hold steady?
(27:21):
Where did my values show up?
Because I'll tell you what.
If you look back and you feelcringe, I love that.
If you feel uncomfortable, Ilove that.
Do you know why?
Because you have grown sincethen.
(27:43):
You have changed since then.
Your perspective has grown andchanged, and you've become a new
and better person because ofwhat you've been through.
And so that cringe, that feelingof disgust, that feeling of, oh
my God, I can't believe I didthat.
I can't believe that I used todo that.
(28:04):
That feeling is the proof ofyour evolution.
And I want to celebrate all ofthose moments that have led you
to the current moment.
And so that's what this podcastis about, everybody, is that
every single twist and turn inyour journey, good or bad, light
(28:28):
or dark, um, empowering ordisempowering, even when you got
married and got divorced, youknow, six months later, right?
Like that's what I'm talkingabout.
It doesn't matter because everysingle moment has led you to who
we're who and where you aretoday.
And here's the big kicker.
Here is the biggest thing that Ihave come into the realization
(28:50):
of since working with spirit.
And I think I probably couldhave had this podcast episode
without me diving into thespiritual world.
But here is the reality of whatI've learned now that I am so
much closer with my team withspirit is that everything has
purpose.
Everything has purpose.
(29:10):
Every twist and turn you've beenon, do you think that they were
accidents?
Do you think that they were justmissteps?
Because I promise you theyweren't.
I promise you that with everyside quest that you have been
on, you have learned adifferent, a different skill, a
different tool, a differentcoping mechanism, a different
way to navigate life, et cetera,that you wouldn't have learned
(29:34):
otherwise.
And that's what I mean when Isay there are no accidents.
There are no accidents.
Are there delays?
Sure.
Are there accidents?
No, because everything andeverything that you are is built
in those small moments, in thoseside quests, and these in these
(29:54):
lessons that we've learned.
And your soul has probablyplanned most of them before you
came here because you needed tolearn that lesson.
You needed that tool, you neededthat that experience, that
perspective along the way tohelp you with something else
down the line.
And so I'm gonna go one further.
I'm gonna go one further, okay?
(30:16):
Because, and I'm doing this liveoff the cuff.
I've not completely unplannedthis analysis right now.
But let's take my cringe assself back in the college days
and me deciding not toparticipate in the culture of
business school.
What was it teaching me?
(30:38):
So business school taught me thefinancial foundation that
allowed me to feel comfortableleaving my corporate job.
Point blank.
Point fucking blank.
Because if I didn't go tobusiness school, I wouldn't have
learned to put money into my401k as soon as I graduated,
right?
I wouldn't learn the time valueof money.
I wouldn't learn aboutopportunity cost.
I wouldn't learn that as soon asyou drive a car off the parking
(31:00):
lot, if it's a brand new car, itdepreciates by like 20%, right?
Maybe not nowadays.
But I wouldn't have learned thefinancial acumen that allows me
to feel comfortable and safe inthe decision of leaving my
six-figure job.
(31:21):
Right?
So step one, needed to go tobusiness school.
Needed to go there.
Number two, the fact of notfitting in socially within
business school, but alsoshowing up and changing the
(31:42):
rules of the game and not doingthings the way that everybody
else has done it.
Was proving me that I can go upagainst institutions.
I can go up against social normsas long as I'm living by my
(32:02):
values, living by my truth, anddoing what I think is
authentically the right thing.
And I will come out on top everysingle time.
That's what that journey hasshowed me.
I wouldn't be where I was, Iwouldn't be who I was in
corporate America doing the samething, right?
I wouldn't be out here talkingto you as the former corporate
(32:25):
executive, right?
Former Catholic faith person.
If I didn't learn that lesson ofit's okay to feel uncomfortable,
but living by your values andliving in alignment with
yourself is always going to beyour best and truest path.
And getting comfortable withpeople feeling uncomfortable
with me.
(32:45):
That's what I learned.
And so again, I needed to go tobusiness school.
There is no accident in that.
I needed to feel different.
I needed to do different becausethat was the learning ground to
get me to you hearing me in thiscurrent moment.
SPEAKER_00 (33:06):
Let me see if I can break it down into a smaller
example.
SPEAKER_01 (33:14):
Um spirits like, can we talk drugs for a second?
Is that okay?
If you got kids around, youmight want to pause it.
Not that it's bad because Idon't do anything ever, but my
entire life I have been offeredaltering substances.
Let's put it that way.
Um, in my entire, like up tolike started at 13, always have
(33:36):
been offered my entire life.
And I'm talking like fromfamily, right?
From friends, from strangers.
Like the first time I went toAmsterdam, I literally stumbled.
Has anyone ever experiencedthis?
Dump stumbled off the train at 6a.m.
after my red eye flight came in,left the train station, somebody
immediately offered me drugs.
Immediately.
(33:57):
And I have always said no.
I mean, no, is anyone surprised?
Those of you that you know,you're like Nicole's never done
anything.
It's totally true.
Um, way too high strung for thatshit.
And so my entire life, no, no,no, I don't want it.
I don't want it.
I don't want it.
I don't want it.
Right.
Even now to this day, you know,as a metaphysical practitioner,
(34:22):
I can't tell you how many timesI'm offered like shrooms and
ayahuasca.
And uh with what's the frog one?
You know what I'm talking about.
Um, where you you have the sick,this is a thing, everybody, if
you're unaware.
Um it begins with it's twosyllables, it begins with a K.
Um, it's like you you ingest thepoisonous frog juice.
(34:48):
Right?
Um But every single time I'vesaid no, I've said no, I've said
no.
Right.
And and and that's my journey.
So let me see what the hell thelesson is in this that spirit
wants me to talk about this.
Because again, everybody hasasked me over and over again,
and every single moment I'vesaid no, or these micro moments
(35:09):
where I stay in alignment withwho I am.
Because the reality is, is thatI don't need, I've never wanted,
I've always wanted to maintainmaintain control, totally honest
with you.
Never liked mind-alteringsubstances, period.
Never, um, never something I'veever wanted to do.
Probably lived a lifetime in the70s where I overdosed on
(35:29):
everything ever.
Um, however, as we get into thiscurrent moment of my spiritual
journey, wouldn't it be fuckingcool to be able to access what
everybody else has accessed?
But here's the reality is that Inever needed to access it
because I can access that nowwithout any sort of drugs,
without any sort ofmind-altering substances.
(35:51):
I can go out into the galaxiesand feel high as a kite without
ever leaving my physical state,without ever needing differing
drugs, because the mind is avery powerful tool, right?
And I can, I can access the farreaches of the universe and have
that same experience withouthaving to lose my mind or um
(36:15):
without having to alter thechemicals in my brain.
I don't, why am I talking aboutthis?
Let me ask my team.
And the the reason is they'retelling me it's all about your
instincts and your knowing andyour um and and following your
(36:36):
intuition.
And so as you look back in thesemoments and you're like, I don't
know why I did that.
I don't know why I went to myfirst medium.
I felt called to.
Part of that is your soul.
So there's something in there,and I don't know what it is.
I'm gonna drop this and run withall of you.
Take a moment at thosehistorical moments in your time
(36:58):
where you've made decision andyou don't know why, because it
will be the direction from yoursoul or the direction from
spirit.
And those will likely be majorturning points in your life
and/or proof of who you are as asoul at your deepest level, at
your integration, at yourfrequency level, the purest
(37:21):
reflection of you.
And find yourself in thosemoments, find your truth in
those moments, find the magic ofspirit in your soul leading the
way down these twists and turns,down these alleys, down these
side quests that you've been on,and reflect back about how
(37:48):
amazing you are, how guided andloved and supportive you are,
because there are no accidentsin your life.
And instead, understand theperspective of what they taught
you, understand the value of howyou got through it, and also
give yourself grace and love forliving through and navigating
(38:13):
through probably some very darkmoments in your life and how you
have survived.
You have come here, you arestill here, you still have a
story to tell.
So when you start looking atthese themes, it's gonna be so
important.
And it will help you immenselydiscover who you are and what
(38:36):
you are meant to do here.
Because the parallels betweenour lives and the lives and who
we are as souls and the livesthat we lay out as souls before
before we come here, there areno accidents.
So when people come to me andthey ask, well, what's my path?
I can often reflect back attheir entire journey and show
(38:57):
them that every single stepalong the way, they have been
walking that path.
And that this path is nothingnew.
It's just a continuation of thejourney that you've already been
on.
And so as I close this out, whatI'm hearing in my head is the
Oasis song of Don't Look Back inAnger.
(39:18):
So go listen to that song, goreflect back.
Um, and if you are in the classtomorrow, bring your things.
We are asking everybody to bringartifacts that represent your
milestones, your growth, yourprogress, the different phases
of you, either in the last yearor the last nine years.
And we are going to do somereally cool stuff with that.
(39:40):
So I can't wait to see you allthere.
I am sending you all the love.
Happy it's Wednesday today forme.
So happy Wednesday, and I willsee you all very soon.
Take care.
