The Sacred Pause

Remembering Who You Were Before the World Told You Otherwise

“You were never broken. Just buried”

Hi, I’m Fed Podeschi, and I help healers and therapists step into their power, align with their purpose, and build thriving, heart-centred practices.

But let’s take a breath first.

Actually - let’s pause. A deep, sacred pause.

Because before we talk about marketing, modalities, or even purpose...

We need to talk about remembering.

🌀 The wound of forgetting ourselves

Somewhere between school uniforms, social expectations, and scrolling on our phones - we forgot.

We forgot that we were once wise. Wild. Whole.

We forgot that we belonged - to nature, to each other, and to ourselves.

And we especially forgot that our value was never meant to be measured by productivity, popularity, or perfection.

In Shamanic Transcendence Therapy, we call this moment The Sacred Pause - the breath between the stories.

The part where your soul stops pretending, and your heart whispers:

“You were never broken. Just buried.”

🌱 Reclaiming the inner child and ancestral soul

The first part of the ALIGN shift in my Be In Your Heart method is about remembrance. Not learning who you are - but remembering. Because the truth is: your soul has always known.

In our ALIGN coaching calls, we start with this:

Reparenting the inner child who learned it was unsafe to feel

Honouring the ancestor within you who walked barefoot on sacred land

Clearing the energetic clutter of inherited trauma and societal scripts

It's tender work.

Sometimes messy.

Often magical.

One client recently said:

“It felt like I met the 5-year-old me again... and for the first time, I didn’t tell her to ‘calm down’ or ‘be good.’ I just let her dance.”

That’s healing. That’s alignment. That’s power.

💚 The heart is your compass - not your critic

If you've joined one of our ceremonies, you’ve heard me say:

“The heart is not just a pump. It’s your original brain, your wisest compass.”

And that’s not just a beautiful metaphor - it’s backed by science.

According to the HeartMath Institute, the heart sends more signals to the brain than the brain sends to the heart. It also has a magnetic field thousands of times more powerful than the brain’s.

When you live from your heart, you literally change your field - and the field around you.

The sacred pause helps you reconnect with that field.

It’s the moment when you stop asking, “What should I do?” and start asking, “Who am I becoming?”

And often, the answer is beautifully simple:

A healer. A teacher. A soul remembering itself.

🧘‍♂️ Try this: The Sacred Pause Practice

Take two minutes and try this now:

Put one hand on your heart

Breathe in for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 6

Ask: What part of me wants to be seen today?

Listen. No judgement. No fixing. Just presence.

Journal what arises — or simply be with it

You might be surprised how much wisdom lives in the silence.

🔥 What if clarity isn’t coming — because you’re already holding it?

So here’s my challenge to you today:

Take a sacred pause.

Turn off the noise. Put your hand on your heart. Breathe in your own presence.

And ask:

“Who was I before the world told me who to be?”

You might meet a barefoot child.

A medicine woman.

A lion-hearted dreamer.

Your real self.

You’re not lost.

You’re listening too loudly to the outside.

What if clarity isn’t waiting for you to chase it — but for you to get quiet enough to receive it?

✨ Let’s walk you home

And when you’re ready to reclaim who you are...

We’re here.

In the ALIGN coaching circle. In the STT journey. In your heart.

Let’s remember together.

Let’s walk you home.
