Welcome everyone to another episode of adventures in mysticism. Thank you for tuning in. Today I am here with Minerva Maharaj. And she is just an amazing woman that I have had so many different experiences with in the short time that we have known each other. We have had such a journey together. You know, we started out student teacher, so I was teaching my nervous coaching skills. And then we ended up being on faculty together at a coach training school. And then she hired me as her coach. And then she started her own coach training school called starseed. And I am now one of the advisors of the school. So we have had quite a journey together. And last week, Minerva was actually also on the spiritually architect the Future Summit. And so we've added yet another journey. And so here we are, podcasting together. So I'm excited to add one more thing to our list. Collaboration.

I feel very honored to be here. I just wanted to say thank you for having me,

of course. And what is so awesome as we've never met in person. Minerva lives in Canada, and I'm in the States.

So funny, because it feels like we've been in every area of my life in some shape or form that when you say that, it's like, really we haven't because it feels like we have met like it's been such a close relationship in so many ways.

It absolutely feel the same way. One of my soul sisters. Yeah, exactly. Yes, completely eautiful. Well, so many of us and I obviously know who you are, please tell the listeners who you are.

Well, I am a certified spiritual coach. I am a professional certified coach through the ICF. I'm owner of goddess of wisdom, spiritual life coaching as well as owner and founder of star seed Academy coach training. And I'm on a mission to show the impossible. That's really what it comes down to. Since I was a little girl when people said something wasn't impossible. I was like why I angered me, I didn't understand it. And deep down in my little soul, I just made anything possible. I didn't even know I was a manifester, at the time through human design. But when I look back, it makes so much sense when things like shook me to the core in terms of when people said you can't do that you got to wait till you graduate you got you got to put off that dream and bubble. And I'll be like, Why? Why I do not understand why. And I even made me go even harder to get that dream. And I made I made it happen all the time. And basically, that's what I'm on a mission to do. And it just it lines up to I had a meditation years ago of what is my soul's purpose and is to show the impossible and it didn't make sense. Until I really leaned into that more in my coaching program. I have a group coaching program called Live Your impossible is the essence of that and really the essence of all the work I do whether it's training spiritual coaches, or working with my clients, one on one, whatever you feel in your soul, whatever is pulsing, and bursting within your soul is meant to come here into the physical you're meant to live that out. So whatever feels impossible, or you've been told as impossible is your possible. That's why the word itself says I'm possible. So I'm here to show you that to facilitate that. And yeah, to show you how and to make it a reality. So that's me, that's what I'm here for.

Absolutely. And you do that for you do that in your own life as well. So you're modeling it as well as doing For others, yeah. And you know, I just have to share the story. So I had led Minerva through a custom kind of future oriented meditation in which this idea bubbled forth for her to open this coaching school. And it took How long before that happened?

Oh, Lord, I remember the date. It was January 13, you facilitated this meditation. Mind you is the same day found out I was pregnant. So it just unfolded that day, January 13, we found I found out and I shared everything with you right away. You're just the salsas and like, by the way, I'm pregnant. By the way, I'm opening school. April 1, everything we open the doors, we had people signing up the day, first day. So what's that 123 months about?

Yeah, and this is you all, you know, if you haven't created curriculum, and you haven't done something like that, it's an intense amount of work to create an entire curriculum for six month program that is detailed, and that takes people through this journey of not just learning some coaching skills, but also of you know, their own personal development journey. Because if you're a spiritual coach, you kind of have to know who you are, and have gone through some, some of your own trials and, and figured out some things so that you can hold that space for others. And then also to have that aspect of it that that helps people to really get their business up and running. And so, you know, to do that, in the amount of time that it was done in I was like, wow, look at what this girl can make possible.

Thank you. Yeah, it really true to that. And with help, right, like, I need the support, I need the help. And you were such a crucial part in that with helping with the development of all of that. Couldn't have done it without you. And yeah, it's just it makes me Bill makes me feel alive. Like my soul comes alive. And I put my heart and soul and literally into everything I do. Yeah, so thank you for that. And it's so nice to hear that repeated back because when you're in it sometimes even as a manifester, I know, we're talking a lot about manifester stuff right now, sometimes I don't understand the impact of it. And I'm sure you know about that. And then there's days where, you know, I have another teacher of the school being like Minerva, do you not realize what you're doing in people's lives? And like, no, sometimes I don't know. And sometimes I need to hear it back.

Yeah. And so as a manifester, and human design, you're only 8% of the population and you're meant to initiate you know, you're meant to help manifest things into the third dimension. And so you've aligned perfectly with what your design came here to to do. And your soul, right. Your soul and your design are one. Yeah, yes. Yes. Beautiful. So let's dig in and talk about some of this mystical stuff that's happened in your life. Like is the first mystical experience you recall having.

There were a lot, but one of the first that come to mind actually showed up in a dream. I want to say dream, but I was I feel like I was in a semi sleeping state. Like I was awake, but asleep at the same time, probably in the light stage. Not sure what that stage is called.

Do we call that lucid dreaming?

I think so. Yeah, I didn't want to say the wrong names. I know you had an expert who knows about dreaming and shows. Yeah, so it was like that lucid dreaming. And there was this image of you know, the price is right when you do the big wheel. So there, but it wasn't the prices, right? So I was on the show, in my dream. And I spun this wheel. And really, for a long time my life I never felt I was the girl who won the prize, Jeremy like I always miss the CUSP on certain things. And so anyways, in the dream, it hit like the jackpot of the of the the highest thing you can get on this wheel. And there was like confetti and everything. And I was like, Ooh, I just remember this is one of the first dreams I really stood out to me and it felt so real. And with in that same day now, in my waking hours. I was in university at the time, didn't finish university but I was in university. And I ended up getting a call from which I auditioned for so I was expecting a call for the NBA Toronto Raptors dance pack. Now, since I was a little girl I always wanted to be a dancer before I discovered my real calm, spiritual Coach, but for the longest time, I wanted to be a famous dancer and actress, and had that dream, the night or morning of. And then when I went to school, I got a call from the head coach of the dance team and says, Congratulations, you made the team. And it literally felt like that, or it's like confetti was falling, and it was like, but it was almost like I was in the dream, you know, you want to like scream, but you can't scream sometimes. That's how it felt in real life. But I was just, I was just so excited and overwhelmed. But I was just like, holy, like, it's just so much like I went into this warp, like a different zone when I got this, the the news, so that to me, there was something going on, like for warning and like a premonition or tell me this is about to happen. It was just so aligned. And that's where I really lean into trusting my dreams may not always be in the literal sense. But also, sometimes it does tell me what's going on or what's about to happen, or the deeper meaning behind my experiences. But yeah, that was one of those moments that really stood out for me of Tommy, this is about to happen. And it happened and it felt like an outer body. Not a human experience, if that makes sense.

Yeah, absolutely. And you had you had dreamed you would know that it was going to happen, but not directly. Because of the way that the dream came.

Yes. Yes. Exactly.

Fantastic. So you you mentioned like, before I did what my soul wanted me to do, I was a dancer, I actually think we're multi dimensional. And so you know, being that dancer was part of your soul's calling in some respect. And that was what was right for like divine timing. Right, that was right for that time in your life. And then this is right for this time in your life, and who knows what you'll be making possible from the impossible 10 years from now? Oh,

yeah, I already know what's gonna happen there in the future in that sense. But, but it's so true. Like, there was a while I would, you know, look back on that, because there were some negative imprints on that like memories around, you know, being in the entertainment business around, you know, weight issues and things being told to me and the criticism rejections that takes a toll. So when I had an I, the moment I had decided to leave, I mean, literally, from when I was like, I can remember, walking or dancing was five, six years old. That's all I wanted to do my entire life. So it wasn't up until, from a say, from six years old, to even I would say, five has ever be dancing in front of everybody. And like everyone looked at me. But I knew in my heart, I wanted to do this for the longest time. And it wasn't until I was in my 30s. When I got married, I was like, okay, something is just not lining up here. I'm not feeling good. This can't be what I'm here for. And it was just mental. It was mentally draining. And I want to use the word torment, in terms of, you know, being in that industry. For me what my experience was like, and just what I was doing, it just felt I just wasn't happy. It was it didn't feel aligned. And like, this can't be my purpose. This can't be what life purpose means. So what is that? And what am I meant to do, and I hope it's something I'm good at. And that's when I went on that journey. And then I had some, you know, paranormal experiences there that affirmed my next path. So, to go back to your first point of, yes, I believe that like, I look back now I can think of the fond memories and how it's gotten me to where I am today and how much I had to go through that it's part of my soul's evolution at that time. And I can look back with some fonder memories. But there was a lot of healing that came out of that app that I had to go through after, which then helped with me coaching other people, all the stuff that you look back on, and you think it has a negative impression and memory of it. But that ends up being gold for the future in helping with now helping my clients and what they've gone through first of all, it calls me to do the work and show up and go through that healing. And even from that experience on those tools, and everything has come out of that experience of my own personal development helps clients, but it's just funny how sometimes the things they come to you for was in direct relation to that which I thought we had, you know, I'm not that I'm coaching dancers per se but those lessons are brought forth and they are gold for my clients now.

That makes total sense. I mean, the whole definition of alchemy is turning lead into gold.

Yes, I my husband calls me an alchemist and I go Why do you call me that? So it's a nice that's a nice little affirmation. I love that word. alchemy and alchemists.

I love men who see strong women and magical women and aren't afraid to just name it. Yeah.

Yeah, he's definitely like that. I'm very, very lucky for that. Yes.

Awesome. So you mentioned you had some other paranormal experiences, what would you say was your like, kind of most impactful one? Hmm.

One of the most impactful one, if not my favorite, to this day, was actually, I mean, I did some other training before I went through the training with you at another organization. And it was the first life coaching certification I went through. And the night of my exam, I had a client coming to do my final exam, I had to just do this, like case study or whatever. And at remember, was around three o'clock between three and 330. And I had some time before my client came. And I was like, Okay, I'm gonna take a little nap, kind of thing. But a lot of things happen when I'm about to go to sleep. Just as I'm talking about this, but my grandmother was in the hospital at the time, and I knew was near. Near the end, we were starting to say our goodbyes and stuff. But I had this last exam and somehow and even my cousin's like, Are you sure you don't want to reschedule and I go, something in me was like, I could do it. Like, it's almost like my grandmother's tell me don't cancel for this is almost like grandma's like, don't cancel for death. Like, are you crazy, like, just do this. So anyways, I when I took this nap, and again, I wasn't I know I wasn't sleeping. But I had her come to me, just as about to drift off and she came to me in the most, she showed up in the stronger, healthier image of what we last saw her as, and I could hear her voice. I could almost like see her feel her she came to me and was like, remember me this way? And I said, Okay, grandma. And then she went away. I remember exactly, she was writing and everything. She went away and I I drifted on my camera to go to sleep. I slept for like 30 minutes or something like that. When I woke up. I got a text from my cousin that says grandma has passed through I came. Yeah, it was a tax because I remember the time. And the time that she said grandma passed was the time she came to me. And so I was like, what, like, I know chills. Yeah, I can just feel it still. I just love it. And I feel I feel her near me and just love her love her love her love her so much. And she it was her and it's just like, I had that strength. And I was at peace. It was it was calm, obviously. I love her. I missed her. It was a sad time and went through the grieving but it was so it was complete at the same time. So it was just such a beautiful affirmation and it didn't make it feel so scary during that time because it was one of the first passings in our family are someone really close to us or me. So that was one of my favorites. But to this day, I could feel it. I could feel it like she was here. And yeah, everyone I tell that story, too. They feel that they feel the same thing too. And just Yeah, and then I also had somebody do a reading at least funny enough, I was teaching at a Oh, a retreat. And they had a medium come in, and they invited me to stay. I was like, sure I love mediums like love mediums. And I was like, it's funny enough because I didn't really get my grandmother after she passed. So I always questioned maybe she's at, she's complete and like, you know, she knows a lover we can. But I was surprised I wasn't getting more of these experiences when she's crossed over. And so I said going into smokey grandma, if you're here, like let me know if you can see my kids like see my daughter. I just had my daughter at the time. And I was sitting in the circle and I really just kind of like sat back a bit because you know, sort of people who have paid, you know, the participants who enrolled in this retreat, and the the medium said, you have someone standing over your shoulder and she says she's really proud of you and your kids, your daughter. She's that kids but I know I didn't wasn't even pregnant with my second eye. She was just pregnant. My first actually. So it was just, I love those moments because I do believe there's life after death. And those affirmations it's just so nice to experience it but also as people from that for you too.

Oh, absolutely. That's such a wonderful kind of level. parting with your grandmother to Yeah, that's beautiful. Thank you for sharing that with us. Yeah, no

problem. I love going down those memories. And I feel like she's even here, as I'm talking about it now. And sometimes she comes as a butterfly. Like I see the monarch butterflies floating by her my grandpa.

Yes. Because they're still here. And in the non physical in their pute in their purest form, really. So still energy here. And they that energy could translate or show up in other ways. I do feel like they're here. And they can speak to us in other ways.

Absolutely. What What have all of your paranormal experiences done for you?

Good question. A lot is coming up. So I'm just thinking of how to, like, convey this. For me, is it firms a deeper knowing, and I think since I was a little girl, or I know, since I was a little girl, I had the big questions. And a deeper knowing of, there's something more here. Why am I here, there's a purpose there was, I feel like I remember things from past lives, or I can tune in to more than what everyone is saying or what meets the eye. So those paranormal experiences, affirm that there's something more there's something greater, there's something beyond and also just affirms just how beautiful this orchestration of life is. And that we're not alone, and that we're supported and that things are in divine order, even with tragedies don't, quote unquote, tragedies and struggles. And there is a way, there is a way and it's very calming, to know so it doesn't feel like you're alone. And if you feel like you're alone, to me, that's very depressing. Like for me, there was a moment where I didn't believe in all this and I had to go through that to get to this point, I didn't believe in God and I grew up as like Roman Catholic, and I questioned everything is through a everything and everyone laughed at me. But I had to go through that to understand that there is something more. So my new favorite show right now is life after death with what's his name? Oh, gosh, I slipped my mind. Tyler Henry, love him. So he reads, He reads spirits. He's a medium. And so when I hear those things, like, I guess I was always intrigued about death as well and what that really means, but when I hear about like, when people do readings or like a witness that or even experience it for myself, it just affirms that there's something greater and peaceful and loving behind all of this. And there's something to lean into it even when there's when times do get challenging and tough here on Earth.

Yeah, how I feel that makes a lot of sense. makes a lot sense. So you said that you've had, you know, several different kind of lucid dreaming experiences? Is there maybe one more you'd like to share with the listeners?

Hmm, yeah, yes. Let me think. Well, a couple of things to saw so much a dream but tuning in. I tend to tune into babies quite a lot. I did with both my kids before they were hearing the physical. Like I I knew when my daughter was in my belly before anything was affirmed and be like, Oh, well, you got to like slow down. Maybe get the test and let the doctor from like, No, I know. Because I've been talking to her. So there was a different connection from when she was on. She was just in the non physical and same thing with my son than when they were in the physical in when they were my tummy. And sorry, go ahead.

How did you experience that? In terms of having communication and the non physical with them.

I think when I teach and helps you with that my deeper connection within myself and with source but I could just tune into the energy I just breathe into it. And I could just ask like, are you here like spirit baby, like, are you coming and what's going on like it with my son? I felt like he took a you know, in human terms took a little longer, but he's here in divine time. But there's a moment of like, are you coming? Is this going to happen? And it's just like not, it's not time mom. So the way I feel is I literally just feel it was like energy here, like always near to the side here. And I remember distinctly even on a walk, and it was almost like he came closer and closer. And then there was a time where I couldn't connect, because he was here in the physical, if that makes sense. So I could sense it here. And when it's in the physical, I could connect, but it was different. And I also know when there was a process going on it with his physical being was almost like sometimes, like just be with it and not trying to communicate it with it. So it's only almost like telepathically sometimes I can communicate. And another example of that is like for my daughters, I have a daughter and son I know going back and forth about my daughter. So my daughter was born first and then my son came last year. And then the first time going for an ultrasound. And they didn't hear a heartbeat. But I just knew she was here. And as a first time mom and I and I you know if this is triggering for anyone I understand I send you so much love because it is it is hard for some people. And I understand that. So when they said it in here a heartbeat. Your first reaction would be like, Oh, my God is everything like, oh my god, maybe the baby's not here. But I just had this calm, calmness annoying, like, everything's fine. But the way that the technician she had no bedside manner was just like, well, I don't know why you came so early for she was acting like there's no baby here. And then I was like, pretty sure. And she's just like, well, it's not to say it's not here, she eventually ended up getting softer, but it's like, you just need to wait a couple more weeks before you come back. Anyways, I went, I remember going to the washroom, and then kind of like washed up and whatever. And I talked to her my daughter, and I was like, are you here? And is it a boy or girl? And she's like, I'm here, Mommy, I'm a girl. And so I knew everything that everyone's gonna end up telling me. We're gonna affirm the guy already knew, right? So it was just like, the way I experienced it, I just call it up. And I just tuned to it, I feel it. Everything is silence. And I really trust it. And the more I lean into that, and listen to it, them are and the energy. The more it's affirmed. Also, I just trust it. I don't know how to explain that. I just had this trusting knowing about it. And I trust what they're saying. And yeah, it's affirmed in the physical. So that's sort of like how I experienced it. And even now, when they're here and they're not feeling well, I literally, sometimes especially my son who can't speak yet, obviously, he's only I shouldn't say obviously, but he's six months. Can't speak yet. But I can just tune him like what's going on. And it's like his tummies hurting and then I'll help him with his tummy. And then once that's relieved, he's happier. So it's like, tuning into energy is really what it just comes down to. Right. And just

that makes total sense. So I was living with a girlfriend of mine while I was having a house built and she was pregnant. And her child and I just we were like connected. And I knew he was going to be a boy. And I knew he was just gonna be like the most adorable little thing. And he came out and we were like, I know, I knew him some somewhere, right? Yes, he could telepathically communicate with me. So I would tell her I'm like, he doesn't want the peas. He's gonna throw the peas around. He wants peaches tonight. And she's like, really? Yeah. That was like, Yeah, and I was, I mean, we have, you know, until he got to the stage where he wasn't like, in that energy anymore. You know, because they kind of grow out of it. They, you know, spend time with their friends and stuff. But yeah, he would come down and like crawl in bed with me. You know, like, and he would want to snuggle with me and she's like, this is my kid. She's like, I had your kid just like I had your kid for you.

You're like, thank you. I didn't have to go to the labor.

I was like, Yeah, I love this. But we would sit and have and and we would sit and have these conversations at the dinner table. Because you know, I'd be sitting there and I'd be like, What are you doing? He'll be like, what do you do?

Yes. And you connect more because you understand energy. Like it's it's, and you just speak at their level, you get them and every every you know, everything is energy, we're all energy. And even my husband to this day will be like something with my daughter who's almost four and has, you know, those beautiful tantrums. Some days, you'd be like, how did you do it? Like I could just defuse it quickly. I'm like, I just understand her energy. And I could just speak to her even though she can have the meltdown, the expression, the big expressions, and that's okay, I can get underneath that and tune into the energy. And then it's easier to, to tame or, or handle or alchemize alchemize. That's, yes, exactly. Energy just comes down to energy and to bring back and I'm loving these conversations. But to bring it back to what you were asking is like, how, how could you tune into it, it just comes down to energy, just practicing and becoming a, just practicing tuning into energy, your own energy, other people's energy, and it just keeps getting affirmed and Fernan becomes easier. So important. We don't even have to try so hard to you just close your eyes tune in. Once you silence and you connect, you can anyone can do it, you could pick up on it.

Yeah, and it doesn't even have to be a person. So I write, to find things, I will tune into the energy of them. I have a friend who he's, he calls me a witch. But he's like, because he'll call me he's like, Where's my wallet? And I'm like, it's on the side table next to your living room. And he's like, how do you do that? And I go, cuz I know the frequency of your wallet. So I just tune in, like where is it? Right? Yeah, just like honing in on like, if if I know the frequency of something, I can pretty much find it anywhere.

Yeah, yeah. I love that. Because it's so true. Like even you something came up the other day about like losing kids in the crowd. And I thought I was like, Oh, my God, what would I do? Like just panic was set in. But I was first thinking my mind like, I would just tune into my daughter's energy. And I will know exactly. Hopefully, this never happens. But if it does, energy, you're so right. I'm going to try eight. You do that with food? Right? Yeah, I do that with like, where should we go? Do I even want to be sure I want to do I want to be around this person to go to this restaurant? What do I want to eat? Sure. Go down this road. It just tuning into that energy? Just it'll guide you to what feels good and more of what feels good, I believe.

Yes, absolutely. Well, I loved hearing your stories today. Minerva? And I'm just curious, is there anything else you would like to share with our listeners today? Before we close?

Hmm, around energy? Well, around

your any mystical experiences you've had or anything, you know, paranormal, mystical galactic, huh.

The only thing that came to mind as well, as we may have shared this, we did share this in the summit, but also another one of those out of the world experiences is when we facilitated that meditation, and you unfolded the school, which I discovered the school and did we talk about that at the beginning already? A little bit, a little bit. Yeah. But that was another one of my favorite like, to me paranormal,

like supernatural type feeling of, you know, receiving this message and acting on it. And yeah, that was just one of my favorite ones as well. And you had a big role in that. So thank you. You're very welcome. I love leading meditations and I tend to channel them. So one of the things that that I found that just comes very naturally to me is I'll just tune into a group, you know, or an individual. And I close my eyes and the words just start coming out of my mouth. And they build something that and there's an energy with that, right. So like we were talking about I because I can just sort of feel it. And I am trained in neuro linguistic programming. So there's a way that I speak which is also designed to be more calming, and to kind of put people in a little bit of a trance, so that they can go deeper. But when I'm channeling I'm not thinking about that skill set, right, right, just kind of allowing it to come through and build those things. And and I do love what happens when I do those meditations? Because I almost see them as being activations for people to open up to what is already within them. Yeah, I'm not putting anything there. I'm not like going here, this is what you should do. I'm really just invoking from them. What is already, you know, in their soul seed?

Yeah, yeah. Same thing with me like when I every time I write a meditation, I can write one or even if I when I'm experiencing when I try to put on paper, it's different every time and whether I'm reading off is something I created. It always whether, you know, it's always a download from sources, like a co creation. And so it's not really of my own. It's always a co creation, and it changes every time. And it's tuning into what needs to be said in the moment. What is the message? You know, what needs to flow through me? What does the other person want to hear? And every time I tune in, and if I if I get into my head as I'm leading even if I'm teaching and the minute I drop into the energy of of connecting to source energy even to lead it, the right thing, the quote unquote right thing is said in the leads to that Aha, or expansion or what is needed in that moment. So yeah, just like the process of that and what meditation does to get you there.

Yeah, it's beautiful. Well, I'm so excited to have had you here today. Thank you for being my guest and to my listeners, thank you for tuning in to another adventures in mysticism. And until then, you know, go out and have your own supernatural adventures, whatever those may be.
