In this soulful and deeply reflective conversation, Natalie is joined by longtime friend and fellow Lightworker, Becky Cummins, for an honest exploration of spiritual identity, self-trust, and walking an authentic path.

Becky opens by sharing a recent spiritual breakthrough that challenged her self-perception. When she realised she felt no resonance with a group journey to Egypt, it initially stirred self-doubt and questioning. Rather than forcing alignment, Becky allowed herself to listen more deeply. This moment of honesty became an initiation, leading her to reclaim a profound spiritual connection to the Celtic lands of Ireland and Scotland. Through this self-acceptance, new spirit guides began to emerge, her Reiki practice deepened, and she learned to lean into emotional triggers as teachers rather than avoiding them.

The conversation naturally flows into reflections on Reiki and their shared history, with Natalie having been Becky’s teacher at the beginning of her Reiki journey. Becky speaks openly about how Reiki became a foundational tool for personal responsibility, helping her recognise that her reactions, energy, and experiences were always hers to work with. This awareness led to a powerful realisation: her purpose is not to become anything more, but simply to be herself, fully and authentically.

Together, they explore how years of self-inquiry, healing modalities, and energetic awareness have transformed the way Becky navigates life, particularly within challenging family dynamics. Where emotional reactivity once lived, she now finds neutrality, presence, and the ability to observe without absorbing or fixing.

Reflecting on their eighteen-year friendship, Natalie and Becky speak candidly about common pitfalls within the healing space, especially the ego trap of believing we are here to “fix” others rather than hold space for self-healing. They reminisce about key moments that revealed their mutual growth, maturity and deepening respect for the wisdom that unfolds through lived experience.

The episode concludes with a powerful reminder that our individual energy matters. Personal responsibility, authenticity, and discernment are not just personal practices, but contributions to the collective. The true work, they agree, is learning to trust your own inner guidance and honour the path that is uniquely yours.

This episode is an invitation to soften, listen inward and remember that your way is valid, even when it doesn’t look like anyone else’s.
