Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast

The specific words, prayer, ritual, or method you use to access the Akashic Records are NOT as important as the frequency, energy, and state of being you're holding when you access them.   Your frequency matters above ALL else, and it includes: the level of openness, curiosity, and beginner's mind you're bringing to your readings how grounded & anchored you are in your physical body when accessing the Records (i.e., not using the Records for spiritual bypassing or to "escape" reality) the level of safety you feel in your body and nervous system the beliefs and thoughts you're holding about yourself, about the Records, about the process of accessing them (especially beliefs having to do with your worthiness & ability to access them) your capacity to recognize and dissolve ego mind interference your level of emotional regulation & stability how much you're trusting yourself and the Records   These are all essential components that make up your overall frequency.   They determine how

One of the key ingredients that can "make or break" an Akashic Record reading is HOW you're formulating questions for the Records. There are some questions that can unlock potent healing, insights, and shifts when you're in the Records... ... and other questions that don't work as well, because:  they aren't appropriate for the Records (such as "should/shouldn't" questions) they're too general/broad they stay only at a surface level of insight they lead you to a dead-end This is why the kinds of questions you're asking -- and how you're asking them -- are both really important. I created this episode because one of my students recently asked some awesome questions about what we can ask the Records. In addition to giving you specific examples of what you can ask the Records, I walk you through some guidelines for formulating effective, impactful, powerful questions for the Records so you can get the MOST out of every reading. This episode is also available as a VIDEO TRAINING, with visual aids! You can check

Starting on April 8, 2025, I’m bringing together a select group of conscious healers, coaches, and lightworkers… and teaching them how to: Tap into the Akashic Field of unconditional wisdom and healing on command Connect to a source of Divine Wisdom that can clear away limiting patterns and beliefs at the speed of light (without YEARS of talk therapy or endless “working on yourself” that doesn't create lasting change) Use the Akashic Records as a tool of QUANTUM HEALING to clear away your own “stuff” (fear, resistance, self-doubt, second-guessing, overthinking, overgiving) so you can confidently show up for your clients – and powerfully help them clear *their* stuff as well Turn on your deepest inner guidance and experience deeper states of flow, connection, and purpose – consistently Become a grounded, confident, effective Akashic Records Practitioner and help your clients get life-changing results, so they keep coming back and referring you to everyone they know If you’re feeling the call of the Records –

As spiritual teachers, healers, and lightworkers, we have a sacred responsibility to adhere to certain ethical guidelines when we do our work. This ensures we're protecting our clients and ourselves, and creating a safe and grounded container for our healing work. This episode of INNER WORK is a discussion of some of these ethical considerations, both as a suggestion for healers and lightworkers and as a guideline for when you're looking for and evaluating a healer, coach, or mentor to work with. Some key discussion points: what originally sparked me to create this epiode why it's SO key for healers, lightworkers, and spiritual teachers to dismantle the old paradigm of power over/power under (where the healer or teacher is presumed to have all the power and knowledge, and the client or student has none) why humility, groundedness, transparency, emotional stability, and integrity are essential qualities for teachers and healers (and how things can go wrong when these qualities are missing) the 5 TOP red flags

In this ongoing podcast series, I interview Akashic Records Practitioners to explore how working with the Akashic Records has transformed their lives. We discuss topics such as: what it means to "hear the call of the Records" (and answer that call) the vast healing, personal evolution, and growth that happens when we activate the energy of the Akashic Records in our lives how the Akashic Records can help us fully awaken our intuitive, multidimensional, and healing gifts - both for ourselves and to serve others how tapping into the Akashic field can help us release outdated, long-standing patterns, beliefs, and attachments that aren't serving us the Akashic Records as a potent tool for psychospiritual development and to align fully with your highest purpose as a healer or lightworker In this episode, I speak with Jessica McClain, who completed my Akashic Records Certification Mastery Program in 2025. Jessica is a soul weaver—interlacing energy, intuition, and healing to guide others back to their true essenc

In the process of personal transformation and healing, you'll often find yourself existing somewhere between your “old self” and your “new self.” The “old self” is the identity that has served you up until now, which you have likely outgrown and are now seeking to shed. This “old self” is made up of the collection of attachments, self-perceptions, habits, behaviors, choices, and coping mechanisms (or “life strategies”) you’ve been carrying with you from the past. Your “new self” is your emerging identity and new way of BEING in the world, made up of the collection of conscious choices, behaviors, beliefs, and life strategies you’re stretching yourself into. This is part of your expansion, part of your awakening. This brilliant Self – your true self - is revealed, layer by layer, the more you shed anything that doesn’t reflect the truth of who you are. As you expand, you often have to “straddle” this in-between state: that state when your new Self hasn’t fully emerged, and your old self is still sometimes ru

This month, I've been teaching my new Soul Purpose Workshop for Akashic Record practitioners. A student in this workshop asked a really important question: "How is asking for guidance from the Akashic Records different from wanting someone outside of us to give us the answers?" In this episode of INNER WORK, I’m going to break this down and offer a clear explanation of the vast difference between these two things. Join me for a discussion of: the misconceptions and illusions that make us believe we're separate from the Universe (and therefore separate from the Akashic Records) how the Akashic Records give you access to your Higher Self and Higher Mind 3 key points to ensure you're seeking guidance from a place of empowerment, groundedness, and worthiness  how to make sure you're not seeking guidance or answers from outside of yourself how to make sure you're not unconsciously (or consciously) giving your power away to any healer, teacher, or mentor - or to the Akashic Records!   You're lovingly invited to j

Navigating the 3D, human, earthly, mostly ego-based plane can be challenging. It can demand a lot from us. For this reason, it's completely natural to feel a sense of tiredness, exhaustion, or just wanting to "go back home." BUT -- in these chaotic times of revolution and upheaval, the Lightworkers and Light-Leaders are being called to be more fully present than ever before. Not to escape reality, but to be more fully grounded in that reality, so we can create actual, meaningful change. Join me for this episode of INNER WORK so we can make a difference together, and meet the challenges ahead while staying connected at all times to Divine Source -- and to our inner wisdom, knowing, clarity, and purpose. Explore how the Akashic Records can help you do just that.

In this impromptu episode of INNER WORK, I answer a student question about whether the information we can access through the Akashic Records is limited to planet Earth, or if we can tap into higher and vaster realms of information and consciousness. Everything in this episode is based on my 21-year experience with the Records - both personal and professional - plus recent research into how they operate. Join me for this discussion of: understanding the Akashic Records as an all-encompassing, cosmic field of information and energy is there such a thing as the "Akashic Records of Earth"? how the ego or linear mind has attempted to define (and label) the Akashic Records quantum research into the Akashic Records from Ervin Laszlo the importance of having a clear purpose and intention (and being fully grounded in reality) when we explore questions about past lives, interplanetary lives, in-between lives, starseed origins, etc through the Records You're lovingly invited to join my email community and get access t

What does it really mean to have a spiritual awakening? To wake up from the dream (or nightmare) of the 3D illusion?  Join me for this episode of INNER WORK where we'll discuss and answer these questions: what does it mean to spiritually awaken? what does the spiritual awakening journey often look like? what are some of the initial shifts in belief, perspective, mindset, and attitude that come with waking up spiritually? what are the challenges and rewards of a spiritual awakening? the importance of staying grounded, committed, humble, and open-hearted as you walk your path of spiritual awakening  the importance of going back to beginner's mind - regardless of how long you've been on the path   You're lovingly invited to join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newsletter: https://josephinehardman.com/akashic-records-intro/ Explore the next round of my Akashic Records Certification Program: https://josephinehardman.com/work-with-me/akashic-records-certification-

Staying on the path of awakening and evolution is a CHOICE - often a choice we must make daily. There's a lot of noise, chaos, and collective fear in our modern world, which challenges us to stay on the path and continue making choices from a place of love, alignment, clarity, and Higher Wisdom - not from reactivity, judgment, fear, hatred, or division. As healers and lightworkers with a clear mission to RAISE CONSCIOUSNESS ON THIS PLANET, we're being called more than ever to stay firmly planted in Truth and to lead the way with our daily lives and our work. This episode of Inner Work will serve as a reminder - or, rather, 5 key reminders! - on how to stay on your path of light and evolution... ... and how to continue leading the way for others, especially during these turbulent times in humanity's history.

We’re in a time of massive cultural (and spiritual) transition. In many ways, this is a time of collapse – as old paradigms crumble and make room for the NEW. We’re all being called to step into new ways of being, new ways of thinking, new ways of leading. We’re being called to become more discerning than EVER about what is True, so we don’t fall prey to illusion. As a tool of discernment and Highest Wisdom, the Akashic Records are here to support us in this challenging time of transition. The Akashic Records are like a bullet train to expansion. Once you board that train, there’s no going back. There’s no return to unconsciousness, or to the familiar comfort zones of the past. Working with the Akashic Records is NOT for those who’ve got one foot in, one foot out… or who would prefer to stay in the “comfortable” status quo. The Akashic Records require us to show up in a FULL, authentic, responsible, grounded way for our evolution, and so we can light the path for others. Are you one of the few Lightworkers fu

Is Akashic Records work always focused on past lives? Do we have to focus on the past when working with the Records? Or can we access other timelines - including the present and the future - by tapping into the infinite Akashic field? These are very common questions I get, so let's clear up some misconceptions and explore the vast range of things we can actually do with the Akashic Records! Join me for a discussion of: does Akashic Records work always have to be focused on past lives? how the Akashic Records can give you access to infinite timelines and dimensions across time and space the importance of CURRENT LIFETIME RELEVANCE when working with the Akashic Records why we never want to dwell on the past just for its own sake how resolving and coming to terms with the past (fully!) can help us access our power, wisdom, and abundance in the present the value of exploring relevant past lives - or unprocessed trauma, experiences, or emotions from those past lifetimes - that could be influencing you today why R

Self-attack is something many of us have often done to ourselves. We live in a world that programs and conditions us to attack ourselves in many different ways; to live in a perpetual mode of self-judgment, self-betrayal, self-criticism... diminishing who we are and our inherent value. Living in this kind of state is draining, exhausting, and it keeps you separate from your Higher, Divine Self. Join me for a discussion of: common ways in which self-attack can manifest in everyday life  how self-attack can show up in your spiritual practices and spiritual path the damaging and Soul-draining effects of self-attack how can you begin letting go of self-attack and shift into self-empathy? what is self-empathy and how can you apply it in daily life? how self-empathy requires you to show up for yourself in deeper, more authentic ways the healing effects of self-empathy on your self-worth, self-confidence, and self-love   Join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newslet
