Aligned Alchemy Podcast with Ichel Francis

Have you heard of the "Witch Wound?" It goes all the way back to the history of how witches, healers, herbalists, midwives, etc. were persecuted, hunted, and murdered in the most horrific of ways. This gruesome point in time has been held as trauma in our bodies for hundreds of years, and is the root of why spiritualists and mystics avoid standing out... It's for the sake of survival...

Finding a community - a group of people who get you, a place where you feel safe, seen, and heard - is absolutely essential to how far, how fast, and how deeply you will go in your journey. Many people (especially women) don’t feel safe or supported to share their true, authentic self with their local communities… In fact, many women who are drawn to join my circles tend to have throat chakra issu...

Have you ever thought you were coming from a place of love for wanting to help someone (especially someone close to you)? Despite your best intentions, there is actually something else that can be at play here. You may be so much in your ego that you think you know exactly what that person needs… But how can you? Do you know what their personal karma is? Do you have a roadmap of their life? The si...

Is your worth dependent on what you do? If so, what happens if that title changes or is taken from you? Who are you then? How much doing, exactly, do you have to do to feel worthy? And what would happen if you stopped doing? All this and more in a deep dive into this commonly-experienced notion that your worth is somehow linked to your ability to do. I’m here to assure you that this is not true! T...

Have you ever wondered what your dominant element is? Earth, fire, air, or water? Resonating more deeply with one is not to say that you dismiss the others - trust that there’s beauty and value in everything. For instance, I’m a summer girl - I claim it as “my season.” But this doesn’t mean that I shirk or dread all the other seasons, it just means that I feel more in my power in the summer months...

Many of us know our time on the planet is limited, but we don't really get it. Do you? If you did, you would wake up and live differently tomorrow. Tomorrow is promised to no one, and yet, if you're like most people, you are still delaying making decisions, choices, and putting off the things you really want to do because you think you know the timeline. But the truth is, none of us do... Life is...

Since listeners resonated with the last episode of the Aligned Alchemy podcast, “How to Manifest Anything,” I’ve decided to continue the convo with an exploration that dives more deeply into the energetics of how we manifest using language and frequency. Your words have resonance. The words you choose create a FEELING in you and that is what emits your frequency to the Universe. So yes, your choic...

There are generally two schools of thought when it comes to manifesting. However, both often miss an imperative step... When you add in this step, THAT'S when the magic really starts to happen. In this episode of the Aligned Alchemy podcast, I bring you a real life, personal example of manifesting the seemingly impossible. Specifically, the magic that occurred that brought everything together for...

What does connection mean to you? Are you a surface level surfer or a deep dive connector? To be connected is to be a part of something...do you feel like you're a part of something outside of yourself, or are you feeling more and more disconnected lately? (If so, you're not alone.) Part of the reason that so much of our power has been taken from us is because of the perceived notion that we are d...

Ever wonder why you always seem to be working from just enough rather than having an abundance of money in your life? Consider the energy that the word "wealth" has... What comes to mind when you hear it/say it? How do you feel in your body? What emotions arise? Whatever comes up for you is very telling, and holds the key to how you view money and success (and, more importantly, what may be standi...

Did you know that nothing actually changes from Dec 31st to Jan 1st? What if you explored working from a new beginning that worked in tune with you, nature and her cycles, rather than some Gregorian calendar that throws us off our natural rhythms? In this episode, we explore the alternatives. And if you do really want to make Jan 1st your new start, a word of caution and how you can be best placed...

Is the title of this episode incorrect? Surely it is meant to be the gift of giving, yes? (Especially considering that we’re deep in the holiday season.) Yes and no! In this episode of the Aligned Alchemy Podcast, we look at the real reasons behind why you might be stuck in giving mode AND the shocking repercussions of what happens when you don’t receive… This episode also explores… The way the en...

Ever wonder... Why spiritual evolution is so hard? Why our lessons have to be so painful? What’s with the difficulty surrounding dark night of the soul? In this episode of the Aligned Alchemy Podcast, we explore the reasons why these experiences are so hard and what you can do to make your next spiritual jump easy, pain-free and quick! This episode also explores... Why we’re so resistant to the le...

This episode is inspired by snowy Northern Lights and a beautiful golden moon rise! In fact, the stunning aurora borealis phenomena made me bump this week’s intended topic back. I actually had an entirely different subject matter in mind, but I felt compelled to talk about magic instead. (Can you blame me?) I speak on the energetics of how our Universe works; the idea that when you seek out magic...

This one of the money stories that kept me blocked for so long! That somehow being spiritual equated to living a life of punishment and shouldn't I get enough from just being spiritual? This episode is for you if you believe that wealth is not available to you for whatever story you have created around it. Money is energy and you can choose to be comfortable attracting it or not.

You get to choose 100's of times a day what you place your attention on. Whatever that is, your energy has to follow and flow there.

The more you try to figure out what your lesson is the more it will run from you. Just the act of wanting life to be exactly a ceratin way actually closes doors of possibility that were open to you.

It is easy for your mouth to say one thing and your actions another but are you aware of what creates that? When someone (or even yourself) says they are one thing but everything the person is showing you is the absolute contrary. Are they lying on purpose? Or is something else going on under the surface that they may have a blind spot with and be unable to see? In this episode, Ichel talks about...

When you can begin to truly see the unique gift that you are to the Universe, it starts to become less about you and more about who you can help. No-one else can say it like you, bring it like you, deliver it with your energy. You are the only you that will ever be. Discover what that really means and what to do with it inside this episode.

When you live a deeply grateful life, does it ever mean that you abandon your own hopes and dreams, wants and aspirations because it is easier just to go along with others than to sit in the discomfort of first identifying what you actually want and then even more painful, knowing that you won't go after it. This episode explores more of gratitude vs settling. Join the waitlist for the ⁠⁠⁠⁠ Go...

When faced with the discomfort that making decisions can bring, you may, like I did, think it's safer just to stay still and not move in any direction. Just don't make any choice at all. When you begin to see that not doing anything is also actually making the choice to not do anything, you can begin to see that you are allowing and encouraging your own helplessness and feeling like you ar...

In this episode, Ichel brings you powerful personal examples of the lessons learned when it comes to saving things or putting off things to a later date. As with everything, there are surface level lessons about what it means, and there are deeper lessons when you allow yourself to be self-aware, observe, reflect and take in the message. This is a powerful episode, that will help you to look at yo...

In the spirit of all things equinox and harvest, this is about the ancient wisdom of our grannies "You reap what you sow" etc. So how often are you looking for the harvest of outcomes that you never planted the seeds for? What will you harvest in 6 months, or even 5 years, from the seeds you are planting today? Is your behavior and your habits aligned with the outcomes you are striving f...

No, this isn't about getting rid of or 'killing' your ego. It's about having the awareness to see when your ego is in the driving seat and you might not be operating from your highest values in order to create the impact you came here to make. This episode covers how to see that, what the cost is to stay in your ego and the benefit of working in harmony with your ego. Join the wait...
