This week, we’re diving deep into a topic that connects us all on a soul level - Reincarnation. Why do we keep coming back to this planet? Why did your soul choose to be here, now? And most importantly, how can understanding reincarnation help you live your most magnetic, purpose-driven life? What We’re Unpacking in This Episode: - What is Reincarnation, Really? - Reincarnation is not just some mystical concept; it’s a cosmic opportunity for growth, it's like a game - each lifetime you’re learning new lessons, growing, and evolving. We dive into why Earth is like the ultimate soul school. - Why Did You Choose to Come Back? - The question isn’t why are we here? It’s why did YOU choose to incarnate here, right now? What lessons did you come to learn? What challenges did your soul choose to experience? Sandy breaks down how your soul made this decision and what you’re meant to take from this lifetime. - Sandy’s Pre-Incarnation Memories: Sandy shares personal stories of her pre-incarnation memories - memories of her soul’s journey before landing in this physical body. - The Earth School Metaphor: Imagine Earth is a school, and you’ve chosen to enroll here to grow and evolve, but you forget the lessons and your soul’s mission when you arrive. That’s where free will comes in. Sandy walks through why forgetting is part of the game and how we can start to remember again. - Free Will and the Power of Choice: Reincarnation is about free will—you have the power to choose, create, and shift your reality. In every lifetime, we are offered choices that reflect back to us what we are meant to learn. This episode unpacks how you can use your free will to align with your soul’s purpose. You’re not just living one life—you’re a soul that’s had many lifetimes, each filled with lessons, growth, and expansion and understanding reincarnation can help you to recognize that you are so much more than your body and this current experience. You are infinite. This life is part of a bigger journey. Earth is a school for the soul, and knowing the rules of the game can help you navigate it with more clarity and purpose. Want More?
