We recently connected with Aprielle Garcia and have shared our conversation below.
Aprielle, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?
The beginning – 2020 hit and I discovered what one might call a dark night of the soul, my life was flipped upside down when my parents made me homeless at age 21.
I learnt very quickly that I had to figure things out, this lead me down a path of seeking support in the wrong places which resulted in me developing a relationship with a narcissistic abuser.
We very quickly moved in together and things spiralled out of control, before I could even catch breath of what was happening.
Things came to a head in that relationship which resulted in a whirl wind of public outrage when I went missing with my abuser for 3 days. I experienced physical and sexual violence during that time and now have the perspective that it was actually my greatest gift.
The middle- Following that life altering experience, I was dealing with psychosis, PTSD, anxiety & depression. I was living in a women’s refuge and living of food vouchers. A low point in my life for sure but absolutely necessary for me to truly embody my inner power and shine as the person I am today. I didn’t want to take medication that the doctors were trying to prescribe me. I decided that I wanted to opt for a holistic approach to healing. I started to study things like meditation, reiki and hypnosis. I started to craft and rebuild my confidence in society. I committed my life’s purpose to inner-work, healing myself, healing the planet and choosing to grow and evolve.
My mission is too have holistic educational centres all over the world focusing on creative expression, individuality and development of spiritual gifts.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
I’m now a spiritual coach, I empower people to embody their true selves through inner-work, energy healing and creative expression. I have designed a holistic inner-work programme to help people clear subconscious blocks that is holding them back from fully expressing their highest truth.
I offer life purpose readings, spirit baby readings, quantum healing sessions, distance reiki sessions and 1-1 meditation sessions.
I also host a meditation class every Friday for my online community and I love creating content to inspire and activate those who are ready to take their life to the next level.
I’ve opened my first educational centre in Barry South Wales UK at the Goodsheds called The Galactic Healing Hub where I host educational workshops.
My discipline with my own spiritual practices has what’s guided me to this point of opening an educational centre. I started to put myself into self hypnosis after the trauma I experienced and realised that we can massively shift our entire reality quickly by going within and seeking the answers from our soul. So many people have been conditioned to think a certain way that they are helpless or can not heal from certain things but we are so very more powerful than what we think.
My favourite service I now offer is my quantum healing sessions where I help people to access the layer of the brain that allows for deep relaxation it is through this healing modality that we can access the subconscious part of the brain. By accessing this we can re-wire our subconscious programming, this enables my clients to let go of negative ways of thinking, old belief patterns and fear that they are so ready to let go of.
I also love going live on zoom every Friday for my community where I host a free reading session. These then also get posted to my YouTube channel (Aprielle Garcia).

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?
In the beginning of starting this business journey, I had no funding, no savings just a part-time job. I had absolutely no idea how I was going to fund the start up of my business yet I knew I had to jump. I knew I had to take action and somehow it WOULD work out. I write this with the intention that it inspires one person to take that jump that next leap into entrepreneurship. It definitely isn’t for the faint hearted and doesn’t always work out the way you expect however, it’s important to listen when to take inspired and aligned action even if it makes absolutely no logical sense.
When I applied for 3 different funding pots I was declined all of them. I really had to take a step back and figure out what this experience was trying to teach me. If I wasn’t resilient I would of given up there and then however, I had a little voice in the back of my mind telling me to keep going, keep pushing.
I think a lot of people think entrepreneurship is all about the business, the details of the business the logical things you can see in front of you however, to really shift your business to where you want it too be it starts with you, your mindset, your belief systems. What do you really believe is possible? How far can you take your business because if you can’t see the big goal the end vision clear as day then you won’t have the stamina or resilience to continue on even when things don’t go your way.
How did you build your audience on social media?
I would honestly say just be true to you! I know we hear this a lot but it really is true. If you’re not being authentic online it really does show. I also think putting in effort really goes a long way, for example I always like to make sure I’m put together when I make videos. I know some people will disagree with this and say just do it as you are. For me, I feel putting in that extra bit of effort really helps me to get into the content creation a lot more. If I look my best it really motivates me to create content. I treat it like I would any other job, I have a folder where I have all my ideas, so whenever I get a great idea for a video or a piece of content I will put it into a folder. This way I don’t get overwhelmed by all of the ideas. Then on the day I have decided to create content for my social platforms I can head straight to that folder and create. I batch make content so that I can post in a way that suits my business goals. Having intentions with every post you create and is a great way to stay motivated and engage your audience.
I don’t have a lot of “stereotypical” social media knowledge per say I massively trust in my faith that my messages and content will reach the people it’s supposed too at the exact moment they are ready to receive it. I think a lot of people overthink social media when it really doesn’t have to be complicated at all.
I do love collaborating with others on social media, I have found this really engages my audience. I go live and interact with my audience quite often which I feel is more personal.
I’m still growing my audience and very much still in the trail and error stage but that’s okay! I think staying consistent is very important even if you don’t get the initial results you would like to see. Let’s be real every business owner would like their content to go viral who wouldn’t. That doesn’t happen if you give up so easily.
