Wildly Beautiful Life Ann Marie Grace

What if the part of you you keep trying to eliminate is actually trying to protect you?

In my latest conversation with counselling psychologist Kristi De Young, she describes the psyche as an inner boardroom.

Around the table might sit your achiever, caretaker, perfectionist, anxious planner, confident self and the part of you longing to take a risk.

But the most powerful question may be: Who is not allowed in the room?

Which part of you learned she was too sensitive, too angry, too ambitious, too imperfect, too spiritual—or simply too much?

We explore Internal Family Systems, the core Self beneath our protective patterns, the body’s need for safety, and what becomes possible when we stop compartmentalising who we are.

Kristi shares that, as she began bringing her psychologist self and spiritual self together, a colleague told her: “I didn’t know we were allowed to be that.”

Sometimes our willingness to be fully ourselves becomes someone else’s permission.

Love to hear your thoughts once you have a listen and tell me, who as been waiting outside your inner boardroom?✨

No Bad Parts: Psychology, Spirituality & Coming Home to Yourself — Ann Marie Grace What if your perfectionism, people-pleasing and anxiety are not proof that you are broken, but parts of you still working from an old set of instructions? None of these parts is inherently good or bad. Each has a history, a purpose and a perspective.

What an absolute joy this podcast was! Jane deftly moved the conversation from analysing my dream to exploring my work as a soul-alignment coach, my book and even my art.

She was so intrigued by what I share about Human Design that we went on to record a live ‘Unpacking Your Blieprint’ session together, which she allowed me to record for sharing.

It was a fascinating reading that really mirrored Jane’s life and I look forward to sharing that with you in the next couple of weeks.

In the meantime - enjoy this fascinating conversation about what our dreams really mean!

Be the first to listen to this beautiful conversation with Georgie Hope on Moving with the Moon: What the Moon Can Teach Us About Life, Business & Letting Go.

We explore the power of the pause, learning to trust the messages from your body, understanding your inherent design — including how Human Design can completely shift the way you parent — and how working with the phases of the moon can help you create more flow, ease and alignment in life and business.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re pushing, forcing or moving against your natural rhythm, this episode is such a nourishing reminder to slow down, listen more deeply and come back into rhythm with yourself.

When I painted this piece - it was a departure from the surrealist / impressionist dots that I often paint with.

I was adding the palette knife. I was blending my dots. I was afraid I might ruin the piece which I already liked… but something inside me pushed me to approach this piece differently.

It has become one of my favourite pieces. ‘Happiness is a Field of Coulour’. It has gone on to inspire the way I approach so many of my pieces now. Not all, but a lot.

It is available both as the original (framed) and as a print.

Colour colour colour

Soon I’ll go back to something landscape - but at the moment it’s colourful bursts capturing my imagination

This feels like a moment.
Naming and claiming my new reality.

This is me - an artist and soul alignment coach. A writer and a speaker. This is in perfect alignment for a 6/2, manifesting generator - juggling my multi passions.

This morning in the wee hours of the Piscean Full moon / I woke with a clear affirmation in my heart - I am couragrous enough to follow my dreams. ✨

This is what I hope to imbue on all of my clients, readers and podcast listeners. Permission to be. Just as you are.

Soul Meets Strategy Session (annmariegrace.com/soul-meets-strategy )✨

Over the past couple of years - a clear vision keeps coming to me. This feather fell from the sky and quite literally dropped into my hands the first time I experienced the vision.

The mind asks, ‘How’?
The heart says, ‘Trust’.

Last night - I woke up with the Full Moon in Pisces.

This affirmation clear as day: ‘I am courageous enough to follow my dreams’.

This is what I have been preparing for these past couple of years… and I can feel this vision is inching closer and closer.

Creating a new reality is as simple (& difficult) as:

Clarity + Connection + Courage + Commitment + Trust in the Unknown

In an hour I’m kicking off the first of three ‘Soul Meets Strategy’ sessions with a new client.

Our focus - clarity, values and vision

She knows she’s in the liminal space at the moment.

Something is calling her forward - but she doesn’t quite know what it is. I can’t wait to take her into her Future Vision that is calling her forward to see what is there.

How cool is this that this is my life - getting to guide people into clarity, connection, courage and commitment to create their own new realities… as I walk the path, as well. ✨

Feel it's time for some clarity for you? I have space for 2 clients atm.

You were never “too much.”
You were never “not enough.”

You were patterned.
From 0–7, you absorbed.
From 7–14, you adapted.
From then on, you performed what kept you safe, loved, and accepted.
And somewhere along the way… you forgot what was actually you.

This week inside Thriving Through Connection - I'm headed in a new direction.

We begin with one simple - but radical - theme:
Permission to Be Me

Not the conditioned version.
Not the high-achieving, shape-shifting, people-pleasing version.
The designed version.

Your energetic blueprint isn’t about prediction.

It’s about clarity.

It helps you understand:
• Why you burn out the way you do
• Why you need more (or less) alone time
• Why you pivot when others stay
• Why certain relationships feel effortless — and others don’t

When you see your design clearly, the self-judgment softens.
And in its place?

Ownership. Peace. Direction.

This is the foundation of a wildly beautiful life.

And in my second episode of Season 2 of The Wildly Beautiful Life podcast, I'm choosing to share the entire Masterclass walking you through the Foundations of your Human Design Energetics.

If you’re ready to stop living on autopilot and start living aligned - I hope you'll listen in. The episode drops tomorrow.

✨ This is your season.
