Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast

Staying on the path of awakening and evolution is a CHOICE - often a choice we must make daily. There's a lot of noise, chaos, and collective fear in our modern world, which challenges us to stay on the path and continue making choices from a place of love, alignment, clarity, and Higher Wisdom - not from reactivity, judgment, fear, hatred, or division. As healers and lightworkers with a clear mission to RAISE CONSCIOUSNESS ON THIS PLANET, we're being called more than ever to stay firmly planted in Truth and to lead the way with our daily lives and our work. This episode of Inner Work will serve as a reminder - or, rather, 5 key reminders! - on how to stay on your path of light and evolution... ... and how to continue leading the way for others, especially during these turbulent times in humanity's history. You're lovingly invited to join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newsletter: https://josephinehardman.com/akashic-records-intro/ Explore the next round of m

We’re in a time of massive cultural (and spiritual) transition. In many ways, this is a time of collapse – as old paradigms crumble and make room for the NEW. We’re all being called to step into new ways of being, new ways of thinking, new ways of leading. We’re being called to become more discerning than EVER about what is True, so we don’t fall prey to illusion. As a tool of discernment and Highest Wisdom, the Akashic Records are here to support us in this challenging time of transition. The Akashic Records are like a bullet train to expansion. Once you board that train, there’s no going back. There’s no return to unconsciousness, or to the familiar comfort zones of the past. Working with the Akashic Records is NOT for those who’ve got one foot in, one foot out… or who would prefer to stay in the “comfortable” status quo. The Akashic Records require us to show up in a FULL, authentic, responsible, grounded way for our evolution, and so we can light the path for others. Are you one of the few Lightworkers fu

Is Akashic Records work always focused on past lives? Do we have to focus on the past when working with the Records? Or can we access other timelines - including the present and the future - by tapping into the infinite Akashic field? These are very common questions I get, so let's clear up some misconceptions and explore the vast range of things we can actually do with the Akashic Records! Join me for a discussion of: does Akashic Records work always have to be focused on past lives? how the Akashic Records can give you access to infinite timelines and dimensions across time and space the importance of CURRENT LIFETIME RELEVANCE when working with the Akashic Records why we never want to dwell on the past just for its own sake how resolving and coming to terms with the past (fully!) can help us access our power, wisdom, and abundance in the present the value of exploring relevant past lives - or unprocessed trauma, experiences, or emotions from those past lifetimes - that could be influencing you today why R

Self-attack is something many of us have often done to ourselves. We live in a world that programs and conditions us to attack ourselves in many different ways; to live in a perpetual mode of self-judgment, self-betrayal, self-criticism... diminishing who we are and our inherent value. Living in this kind of state is draining, exhausting, and it keeps you separate from your Higher, Divine Self. Join me for a discussion of: common ways in which self-attack can manifest in everyday life  how self-attack can show up in your spiritual practices and spiritual path the damaging and Soul-draining effects of self-attack how can you begin letting go of self-attack and shift into self-empathy? what is self-empathy and how can you apply it in daily life? how self-empathy requires you to show up for yourself in deeper, more authentic ways the healing effects of self-empathy on your self-worth, self-confidence, and self-love   Join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newslet

This episode of INNER WORK will support you in upleveling and refining your Akashic Record readings, as a practitioner. Join me for a discussion of: key differences between "information dump" readings and genuinely transformative, co-creative Akashic Record readings why "information dump" readings can overwhelm or paralyze clients (in addition to making our work as healers/readers unnecessarily draining!) raising the standards for how we do spiritual work and show up for our clients how to support your clients (and yourself) in creating lasting breakthroughs, insights, and healing through the Akashic Records the importance of evolving your readings from a purely cognitive level of insight into other levels of healing and transformation the multiple layers of listening we must harness to be highly effective Akashic Record practitioners   Join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newsletter: https://josephinehardman.com/akashic-records-intro/ Explore the next round

Although there's some overlap between spirituality and psychology, Akashic Records work is distinct from traditional therapy in a few different ways. This episode of INNER WORK is an exploration of how we can understand some of the differences between spiritual healing work and talk therapy. Join me for a discussion of: how the main goals of spiritual healing work and talk therapy are often different what ARE the main goals of Akashic Records work, in particular? what's required to embark on meaningful and transformative Akashic Records work (including emotional stability, capacity for self-regulation, and a firm grounding in reality) the value of adding a transpersonal or spiritual component to therapeutic approaches  expanding our healing work beyond the cognitive level of insight putting spiritual awakening and a "dark night of the Soul" into proper context, both for ourselves and for our clients ensuring we do our work responsibly, effectively, and safely as Akashic Records readers and healing practition

In April 2025, I’m bringing together a select group of conscious healers, coaches, and lightworkers… and teaching them how to: Tap into the Akashic Field of unconditional wisdom and healing on command Connect to a source of Divine Wisdom that can clear away limiting patterns and beliefs at the speed of light (without YEARS of talk therapy or endless “working on yourself” that doesn't create lasting change) Use the Akashic Records as a tool of QUANTUM HEALING to clear away your own “stuff” (fear, resistance, self-doubt, second-guessing, overthinking, overgiving) so you can confidently show up for your clients – and powerfully help them clear *their* stuff as well Turn on your deepest inner guidance and experience deeper states of flow, connection, and purpose – consistently Become a grounded, confident, effective Akashic Records Practitioner and help your clients get life-changing results, so they keep coming back and referring you to everyone they know If you’re feeling the call of the Records – this is nev

Before the beginning of your current lifetime, your Soul made some conscious decisions about what you would experience in this life, what would occur, which lessons and challenges you'd face, and who would be involved in those lessons. All of these decisions and orchestrations are part of your Soul's curriculum - your conscious plan of evolution and expansion for this lifetime. In this episode of INNER WORK, we'll talk about: how can we define the concept of Soul's curriculum? what are the different levels of your Soul's curriculum? how can you gain a better understanding of your own Soul's curriculum... so you can fulfill it? the fears that get in the way of shining your light brightly and living out your Soul's curriculum the collective curriculum we share as lightworkers to raise consciousness on this planet and assist other humans in their evolution (PLUS bonus numerology discussion and how the number 222 is related to your Soul's curriculum at the beginning of this episode!)   Join my email community a

I don’t have to tell you that the world we're living in is pretty crazy and chaotic. There's a lot of confusion, division, projection, anger, and fear out there. So, what do we do with that collective consciousness of fear, separation, and illusion that's so prevalent in the world today? What do we do with that, as lightworkers, as healers, as people who have a strong mission to be of service or to DO something to raise the level of consciousness on this planet? I know for many of us there's a deep sense of purpose and taking action, in one way or another, to change things, to dismantle the old paradigms, to contribute to the evolution, liberation, and enlightenment of humanity. This isn't an easy or quick task. As lightworkers, we hold sacred responsibilities to awaken the light in ourselves and others (and SEE the light in ourselves and others) during crazy times of upheaval and social or political unrest -- when we see so many egoic agendas running the show on many levels of society, government, corporatio

Projection is a defense mechanism where someone displaces their own unresolved feelings or thoughts onto another person or group. It's a way for people to cope with emotional discomfort and conflict without acknowledging their own emotions. We've all projected our stuff unconsciously onto others at times... and we've also been the recipients of others' projections. In the world we're living in today, there's SO much projection going on. As lightworkers and spiritually awake people, we need a strategy to (1) protect ourselves from others’ projections and (2) be conscious and mindful enough so WE don’t project our stuff onto others, either. Join me for this episode where I discuss: why projection is such a common human reaction (and coping mechanism) what it really means to project -- and to be projected onto how to shift your mindset and internal attitude so that others' projections don't affect you as much how to set inner and outer boundaries so you can protect your space, energy, and sanity... without al

This meditation will help you: neutrally observe and dis-identify from your body, mind, and emotions get into "right relationship" with your physical body, mind, and emotions - knowing your true self is larger, wiser, and much more permanent than any of these develop a deeper, embodied sense of your inner divinity and inner I AM Presence (which supports you in feeling more divinely connected) Thank you for tuning in and spending this time with me!  Join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newsletter: https://josephinehardman.com/akashic-records-intro/ Explore becoming a certified Akashic Records Practitioner: https://josephinehardman.com/work-with-me/akashic-records-certification-program/ You can also send a note to [email protected] to let me know how this episode landed, or if you have questions or topic suggestions for a future episo

As a tool for accessing Divine Guidance, quantum healing, and rapid transformation, the Akashic Records can help you become fully aligned with your true purpose - and live that purpose every day. In this episode of INNER WORK, I tell my personal story of leaving a successful career in academia to do spiritual work full-time... and the KEY role that the Akashic Records played in making that transition. (I couldn't have done it without them!) Join me for a discussion of: how I started recognizing that my successful, years-long career in academia wasn't fully aligned with me the messages I received from my Higher Self (and from the Akashic Records) along the way how the Akashic Records helped me release an old identity and step into a more authentic, aligned, and fulfilled version of myself how the Akashic Records helped me build a sustainable, 6-figure spiritual business the importance of trusting and following the Divine Guidance and "sacred nudges" we receive on our life path Thank you for tuning in and spe

This episode is about how to shift your perspective, mindset, and energy when something unwanted or challenging shows up in your life. As humans, we're naturally wired and inclined to see the NEGATIVE when something challenging, unexpected, or irritating shows up in our life experience.  We might also immediately want this unexpected or challenging thing (or person, situation, etc) to GO AWAY - which is a completely normal human reaction. But that resistance, of course, typically makes things worse. Join me for a discussion of: the primitive brain's negativity bias, and how we're wired to see the negative (or to look for problems) the importance of remembering the level and degree of choice we have EVEN WHEN something challenging happens pausing consciously so you can explore what's actually showing up in your life (and why) a sequence of reflection questions to shift out of resistance and into expansion shifting from a place of victimhood ("WHY is this happening to me???") to a place of empowered curiosity
