In this episode, I sit down with Simone Milasas, a facilitator of Access Consciousness, to explore kindness, connection, and the transformative power of receiving. Simone shares profound insights on energy exchange, the generosity of spirit, and the importance of gratitude and presence in our lives.
We begin with Simone’s reflections on her deep connection with animals—particularly horses in Costa Rica—and how they taught her to build trust and overcome fear. Learning to ride horses bareback became a powerful metaphor for life: it required immense trust, self-awareness, and a willingness to push past fear.
Simone also opens up about a harrowing experience during a whitewater rafting accident in Costa Rica, where she was trapped underwater in grade four rapids. Her story is one of resilience—summoning the determination to survive and processing the trauma with raw vulnerability. This near-death experience became a pivotal moment, inspiring her to embrace life with renewed gratitude and zest.
The conversation flows into conscious living and the tools of Access Consciousness. Simone shares the importance of “living in the question,” staying curious, and asking whether choices contribute to your life. She opens up about her past relationship, highlighting the value of self-reflection, growth, and living authentically without regrets.
Simone also touches on societal expectations around relationships, marriage, and finances. Her pragmatic approach to money offers actionable wisdom on shifting limiting beliefs around abundance and debt. She reveals how our points of view shape our financial reality and explains how simple mindset changes can create lasting freedom.
A powerful theme throughout is the idea of allowance—accepting people and situations as they are without judgment. Simone shares her father’s profound advice: stop seeking understanding from those who can’t “get you.” Instead, allow others to be who they are and focus on living life on your terms.
Key Takeaways:
- Allow others to be who they are without projecting expectations.
- Ask yourself, “Who does this belong to?” when heavy emotions arise.
- Your mindset determines your relationship with money, health, and life.
- Choose trust, vulnerability, and curiosity to embrace life fully.
This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, conscious living, and the beauty of embracing who you truly are.
