Softening the Edges: Seeing Emotions and Healing Differently

In this episode of Her New Lens, I’m joined by spiritual psychology coach Maureen Spielman, founder of the Mystical Sisterhood Podcast and community. Together, we explore what it means to look at our lives—and ourselves—through a softer, more compassionate lens.

Maureen introduces us to spiritual psychology as a powerful, heart-centered modality that views emotions as sacred messengers and life as a soul-led journey. Her insights into the practice of “allowance” offer a gentle invitation to stop resisting what we feel and start listening instead.

Inside this episode, we dive into:

  • The healing power of emotional “allowing”

  • Reframing anger, sadness, and grief as soul wisdom

  • The role of intuition in inner growth

  • Creating community as a vessel for support and transformation

  • How spiritual psychology shifts your internal narrative

Maureen also shares the story of how the Mystical Sisterhood was born—during a season of personal transition—and how it has grown into a sacred space for women seeking soulful connection and healing.

Listen on:

“You can be with another person’s uncomfortable emotions to the degree that you can be with your own.”

What would change if you allowed your emotions instead of resisting them?

So many of us were taught to push feelings aside, solve them quickly, or hide them altogether. But emotions are not problems to fix. They are messengers—pointing us toward something that wants our attention, compassion, and care.

Allowing does not mean staying stuck.
It means creating space for truth.

And often, that space is where healing begins.
