Waking up to the world around us is only the first step.

I know what it is to see the programming and still find yourself ruled by it.

I started questioning the world around me in 2012. By 2020, when I started using the language of being awake, I thought people were basically either awake or they weren’t. Over time, I realized it is not that simple. You can wake up to one layer and still be programmed in others.

In fact, the more I have woken up, the more I have realized how deep the layers of programming go.

Five years ago, I hit rock bottom after several cycles of depression. I had spent years picking myself up, getting on with life, and then finding myself back in the same place again. That was the point where I decided I was not going to keep repeating the cycle. I wanted to understand the actual cause and deal with it.

Since then, I have become fascinated by how our experiences shape us, how we interpret them, and how they affect the choices we make going forward. A lot of what looks like choice is actually an old conclusion about what is safe or allowed still playing out.

I do this work because I believe waking up to the world around us is only part of it. When old programming runs inside us, it keeps the deeper self trapped behind layers of protection.

That is what Unstuck Soul is about: helping the deeper self come out from behind the old programming, so it can guide how we live.
