Hey there soul family,

 

I’m Michy Pepper Spiritual Psychology Mentor fiercely living my inner child’s dream, honoring the wisdom of my highest self. 

 

Balancing playfulness and wisdom is a spiritual practice… 

​

It allows us to fulfill our hunger and curiosity for healing wisdom and growth while reminding ourselves that we’re spirits having a human experience. 

 

While today I am in a divine place of balancing my playful inner child and her love of color and travel while constantly growing my wisdom as a spiritual practitioner, it wasn’t always like this for me. 

 

I know how it feels to know deep down that your soul is calling for more but to be too afraid to listen to the call. Of being fearful of becoming like those who trigger you the most. Of being deeply afraid of allowing my past to run my present. Of numbing pain with substances rather than facing it head-on and healing it. 

 

My love, I want you to know that it’s possible to come back to your essential nature. It’s possible to become your own best healer. I had to become my own best healer to be able to hold space the way that I do as a Spiritual Psychology mentor. This is my story… 

 

Meet Little Me… 

 

Befriending the trees out her window, creating stories about the raindrops racing down the pane… little Michy’s inner world was rich with creativity and imagination….

 

I love Little Me - she is a survivor, finding ways to create and explore even through the darkest moments of my rocky childhood. In a matter of a couple of years, I was diagnosed with a learning disability, my mom was diagnosed bipolar, my parents got divorced and I began being raised by nannies. Let’s just say my home environment was rarely peaceful…

 

Yet, I wouldn’t change a moment of it.

 

I learned how to deeply hold space for someone in their darkest hours. I learned how to create my own inner world that could nourish and give me solstice, with the help of nature to ground me. I learned how to befriend Little Me. I learned how to truly listen. 

 

I know that my experience just makes me even more qualified to do the work I do today. 

 

First Came College… 

When I went to college, I entered a phase of deeply questioning who I was. I struggled to keep up with school, befriended the party crowd, and was constantly feeling like I was juggling the identities of the studious image I wanted to portray with the free-spirited party animal that was also coming out. 

 

It wasn’t until most of my friends studied abroad that I had the time to really question who I was and wanted to be. I went on a lot of solo hikes, read a lot of books, and really questioned things. 

 

This led me to eventually study Spiritual Psychology at the University of Santa Monica, where I was absolutely in awe of this world of science and spirituality working together in such harmony. While academic study had been a struggle for my entire life, I was now able to grasp concepts with incredible ease. I knew I’d found my calling. 

 

Then Came Travel… 

By the end of my time at USM, a couple of challenging heartbreaks and life lessons later, I realized that I was in complete control of my reality. I loved the work I was doing, but I knew there was something missing. I began to work with mentors who made it clear that I could live my soul-aligned life, fulfilling my purpose, and travel the world at the same time. 

 

I ended up buying a one-way ticket to Bali, and the second I booked it, my whole body felt light, excited and full of life. For the first time in my entire life, I didn’t have a plan. Bali was the first stop, but the wind could take me wherever I wanted to go (which ended up being Australia and India to begin...) 

 

Today: Balancing Playfulness + Wisdom 

Today, I’m dedicated to living my life honoring the two sides of my essence: my Little Me, and my 85-year old self, and I know and trust that I’m making them proud! I let my inner child feel seen by wearing colorful clothing and booking the coolest Air BnBs as I travel nomadically throughout the world. I honor my 85-year old self by constantly growing and connecting with my highest self. Balancing the playfulness and wisdom of our spiritual experience here on earth is what I’m here to bring to you in our work together.
