We were lucky to catch up with Nicole Radha Stephens recently and have shared our conversation below.
Nicole Radha , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?
When I was younger I always felt that there was more to life than what meets the eye. I feel as though I have always been a risk-taker and have navigated my life in a way that was always ecstatic. Before my path to endless awakening and self-realization, I was an unconscious ecstatic and fell into substance abuse and was chasing the dragon.
My first awakening was a near-death experience that shook me out of the self-destructive pattern that I was carrying out in my life. Before my NDE I was dabbling with meditation, spiritual practices and even became placed and attuned with Holy Fire Reiki 1&2 but was still intermeshed in my old ways. The accident consisted of me falling off of a cliff that was nearly 30ft high and was deep in the Laplata canyon that was located outside of Durango, Colorado. I broke my pelvis, jaw, and cheekbone all on my right side. Through grace, I was luckily with one other person who sought help. It took Flight For Life Colorado 3 hours to find the location I was in to fly me to the hospital in Durango. When found I was not breathing on my own and was in ice cold water for 3 hours that initially saved my life because I was suffering from a hematoma from where I broke my pelvis. When taken to Durango hospital for examination they claimed that there was nothing they could do because my trauma was too severe. I was then flown to the trauma center in Lakewood, Colorado where I had my surgeries and recovered for 1 week. Walking out with a walker, I was unsure if I would ever snowboard or run again. Because I was placed with Holy Fire Reiki I began to heal myself and I was snowboarding within 5 months and running within 9 months. Once fully recovered from the accident my partner and I moved to Denver, Colorado. Once moved I began to focus solely on my business that at the time was just a Reiki business. There were still themes of keeping myself small and hidden just like I did when I was a child so I felt that there was more healing to be done. I then sought out a shaman whom I would journey with Ayahuasca. I realized that I was holding trauma from when I was a child and grandmother ayahuasca showed me how to release this trauma and how to become a clear channel of the divine in order to help others release theirs too. I found that my substance abuse stemmed from a lack of purpose and the ability to fully express myself in a way that was only divine and unique to me. After fully tapping into my true divine essence and purpose I have had zero cravings for the substances that I had used to partake in. I now work alongside my shamans in healings and continue to ever expand for the benefit of all beings.
My mission is to help others to unfold to the true essence of their own divine being. I am here to guide you in meeting the shadow, recognizing the ego, and guide you to releasing stories that no longer serve you. Stories that you have been attached to since childhood. I am here to show you how to ride the dragon of compassion through life instead of chasing it. Ecstatic bliss is located within the self and I am here to guide you to your bliss and path to self-realization.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
My name is Nicole but I go by the name Radha. Radha was a name given to me by my shaman during an initiation. Radha is Sanskrit and means devotion, compassion, and peace. I am 28 years old and my credentials are certified Holy Fire Reiki Master and Holistic Health Coach but I am not limited to this. I have worked alongside shamans, I am a clear channel of the Divine Mother, a multidimensional healer-meaning shamanic and spiritual awakening mentor.
Initially, spirit is how I got into my industry. When I first began to meditate I immediately got connected to spirit and received a vision of myself healing others and I enrolled myself in a Holy Fire Reiki 1&2 class having little to no knowledge about really what it even was. I just trusted that I was in the right place and I was. 11 days after the certification I was in a hiking accident, where I fell close to 25ft and broke my jaw, cheekbone, and pelvis all on my right side. This NDE caused me to go even deeper into myself and began to create a plan for forging and developing my business. During my recovery from my accident, I obtained my Holistic Health Coach certification and Holy Fire Reiki Master. Once recovered my partner and I moved to Denver, Colorado and I officially started my business. In the beginning, my business name was “Sublime Natural Wellness” in honor of a friend, Hawk who had passed away. As I grew, my business grew and I decided to change the name to “Sea Change Holistic Healing LLC” Sea Change means profound or notable transformation and that’s exactly what I provide for myself and my clients. My discipline is mainly yogic practices with a focus on service and devotion. I practice Sādhanā every day which initially is ego-transcending spiritual practice and discipline that allows you to attain Samadhi. I am Hindu influenced in my spiritual practices but am also deeply connected to Mother Mary and Ascended Master Jesus and work with them often.
Services I provide:
-1:1 Remote Healing Session
-5 Month awakening program called “Bliss”
-Holy Fire Reiki 1,2 and Masterclasses
In my healing sessions, the focus is on releasing and removing blockages throughout the energetic body that is also connected to the emotional, mental and physical body. Releasing what no longer serves in order for you to tap into your true essence. overcome a current block that you are currently experiencing in your reality in order to transition and transform your current life experience. I use a range of different modalities and choose the one that would be most beneficial for the client and their souls evolution.
In my mentorship program, we focus on trauma release, meeting and recognizing the shadow, transcending the ego, and providing support, healing, and coaching to allow the client to be ever-expanding because that is our truest nature.
I am able to see things from a multidimensional view meaning that I don’t fall into the linear vision that is “this or that”, or “good or bad”. I can see and feel where the blockage or roadblock is coming from. There are multiple truths but my mission as a shaman is to see the 1 truth that the soul will respond to the most to make the most profound transition/transformation. This sets me apart because there can be a lot of dancing around the root issue. I can see exactly where it is coming from and take the best measure possible for the client to make the most profound and notable shift.
I am most grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the collective awakening. It is an absolute honor to serve humanity and to provide a safe space for others to expand and unfold to their own true divine essence. I would like my people to know that we are one and I will always see and hold you in your light. Sea Change is here to serve and is fully devoted to you and your awakening journey.
We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?
I was really attracted to this question because initially our path to becoming self-realized and the development of bringing more awareness into our lives requires the ability to unlearn. Most of all that we are told and taught when we were younger has created an imprint on us that has initially kept us small or cozy in our “safebox”. One major lesson that I had to unlearn is comparing myself to others. I realized that it has zero benefits to myself and my audience. When we are truly authentic, people can feel that and that is the medicine. Authenticity cannot be replicated and YOU can only serve your own unique divine medicine. So releasing the old story of things having to be or look a certain way because of society’s standards, you can then tap into what is true to you and how you can spread your authentic message to the world. The attachment to comparing myself to others really just came from the environment I was raised in as a child. Very competitive and always felt pressured to be the best. I know now that “being the best” is just an illusion that cannot be satisfied. When you are in your authenticity, there is nothing to prove because you are already IT.
Can you tell us about a time you’ve had to pivot?
When I was first developing my business I was in full flow but had little structure to it or so to speak a solid foundation. I felt as though everything was all over the place. I realized that I needed help with navigating my mentorship program with more structure. I initially hired a coach to help me tap into the masculine energies for my business that I was lacking. I was too tapped into the feminine and the flow of things that it initially had me all over the place. With help from my coach, he helped me to structure a solid foundation in order to allow my creative force to flow within that foundation. This was pivotal for me because before I had not realized how important the balance was between structure and flow. You can’t have too much of one or the other, the balance creates the highest outcome.
