Step into the luminous, gentle embrace of the angelic with Angel Coach Sue Elliott and host Linda, as they explore what it truly means to live guided by purpose, unconditional love, and Divine presence.

In this uplifting episode, Sue Elliott invites us to rediscover our inner connection to the angels—not as distant, celestial beings, but as ever-present companions guiding us in deeply personal and practical ways.

Here are three radiant insights from their soulful conversation:

🔹 The Language of Angels is Unique to You: Sue Elliott illuminates how our angels lovingly communicate with us through signs, symbols, and synchronicities tailored just for us—whether it’s a dragonfly in a furniture store or numbers on the clock. By tuning into these gentle nudges and playful treasures, we realize we are never alone or unsupported.

🔹 Embodying Divine Unconditional Love: The journey starts with self-love. Sue Elliott and Linda Lang share that all transformation flows from tending to our emotions, soothing our wounds, and embracing our humanity. The more we clear our internal “gunk”—old beliefs and hurt—the more we can radiate as the unique facet of the Divine we truly are.

🔹 Your Purpose is Already Unfolding: Feeling lost or behind? Take heart, as Sue Elliott reminds us: you are already on your path. Whether your purpose is peace, joy, or moment-to-moment presence, the angels affirm you are exactly where you need to be.

Let this episode be a balm for your soul—a gentle reminder to trust your inner knowing, invite angelic help, and love yourself into wholeness. For soothing angelic energies and more, visit myangelcoach.com/soothing and nurture your spiritual journey today.

Transcript:

Sue Elliott:
They’re going to bring you signs and symbols that are unique just for you. They know what means what to you, right? They know you so intimately and they love you so much that they’re going to speak to you in a language that’s unique for you.

Linda Lang:
What if the Angels are already communicating with you, but in ways that you don’t recognize yet?

Announcer: Welcome to Exploring the Mystical Side of Life with your host, Linda Lang.

Linda Lang:
Hi, this is Linda Lang from www.ThoughtChange.com. Today I have Angel Coach Sue Elliott with me who teaches people how to consciously collaborate with their angels. Sue, was there a moment in your life when the Angels became Undeniably real to you?

Sue Elliott:
It was more like a series of small moments. So many moments of learning to trust their guidance and learning to trust what they were saying and often guiding me to say to somebody else. So from, you know, driving around in a new town before the days of GPS and trying to figure out… I just want a sandwich, and I had to be somewhere to let, you know, repair people in… And all of a sudden I heard, “Turn right.” And I turned right into what looked like an office park. And in front of me, it was a sandwich shop. And I went, “Okay, all right.” Or they would tell me to ask what seemed like the weirdest question.

And then people would say, “I was just thinking about exactly that.” Or say something crazy, and they’d say, “Oh, my dad used to always say that.” Right. So it was these series of small learning to trust the process experiences rather than one big epiphany.

Linda Lang:
So how did you decide that they were angels and not spirit guides? Or maybe they’re the same thing?

Sue Elliott:
I love that question. And I’m never very good at answering it because my knowing of reality, is that we are all facets on the one jewel that is the Divine. So at some level, we’re all one being. So angels, spirit guides, the Divine, my higher self. Like, on some level, it’s all the same thing. So it’s often difficult for me to pull apart what’s what. I know that when I say angels, I feel tremendous resonance with it and tremendous joy with it, so I experience them as angels. I also know that they are really potent beings that help facilitate Divine intent or Divine perfect timing so that they can manage all the red lights so we get there a little slower than we were going to, or that we sit in the one empty seat next to the person who has the answers to our questions.

I guess I don’t sense an important distinction between spirit guides and angels. They’re all here to help.

Linda Lang:
Exactly. Now, there are a lot of people who would consider an angel to never have had a human incarnation, whereas maybe a spirit guide might have been. Might have been, you know, their passed-over grandmother or somebody from a past life. But my understanding from you is that angels can really be anyone.

Sue Elliott:
Yes. And all of us can be used as somebody’s Earth Angel. So often our messages get delivered through other people who sometimes say something very unexpected, like heaven knows I’ve done a lot of times. But sometimes we’re put in line in the grocery store with somebody behind us who has the answer to our question that we’ve been racking our brains around or trying to find the answer to. I am quite sure that there are times where a person is created specifically to be an Earth Angel. specifically to help us with what it is that we need. So whether we want to call them an angel who incarnated for a moment, or a thought pattern, or— it doesn’t really matter. But they’re here to help us in physical if we need them to be physical, and in non-physical if that works.

Linda Lang:
I love your broad perspective on angels because it really opens up the whole field of possibilities.

Sue Elliott:
Yes.

Linda Lang:
Tell us about the angels that you work with.

Sue Elliott:
So the angels I work with are not the ones people know by name. They haven’t spent as much time with Earth before, because they’re here now to help humanity rise up into a higher level of consciousness, a level of consciousness that’s based in divine unconditional love. And I love it when I say that, because I just got another wave of goosebumps. So they are here to help us embody divine unconditional love, or said another way, they’re here to help us embody our unique aspect of the Divine in physical form. So on the one hand, we’re all that one jewel that is the Divine, but the both/and is that we’re also an individuated, unique in all the cosmos expression of the Divine. So they’re here to help us be that. Without the subconscious programming and the limiting beliefs and the gunk that we picked up in 3D reality. They’re here to help us live, as you could say, our higher self or our soul expression, which is really delicious.

And we’ve all had moments of it. We’ve all experienced that. And they’re saying that now the planet is ready and enough of the energy on the planet is ready for us to do that more and more. Eventually, 100% of the time.

Linda Lang:
Do you think we’ll see that in our lifetime?

Sue Elliott:
Yes, yes, yes, yes. They can’t give me a timeframe because there are so many factors, so many moving parts in the cosmos. And every now and then they’ll say 3 years. Now they’ve been saying that for a while, so I wouldn’t, you know, hang your hat on it, but certainly within our lifetime. And it may unfold in a lot of different ways. Because we know that there are different timelines, there are different parallel realities, if you want to call them that. There are different expressions of reality happening at one time.

Linda Lang:
There’s that darn free will, right?

Sue Elliott:
Yes, which is awesome and sometimes annoying. Yeah.

Linda Lang:
Sometimes we like to take the long path.

Sue Elliott:
But the angels do want to say that it’s all path, right? We can get ourselves so knotted up around a misstep or, you know, going the wrong way or taking a detour or even having a tangent in the conversation. And they want to say everything can be used by the angels and the divine. So one of my favorite examples was I was working in an education technology startup and it wasn’t intended to launch. And I was throwing so much energy into it. I just was doing everything, pouring my heart and soul and all my life force.

And eventually I was almost, you know, worn down to a nub, completely burned out. And I had been hearing over and over and ignoring, it’s not meant to launch. But it was meant for each of us involved to have that experience. Like, nothing went wrong. I just had to let go of my attachment to what I thought a successful unfolding in this particular instance looked like.

Linda Lang:
You know, Sue, that’s a beautiful piece of wisdom that you just shared. Because it takes the hierarchy out of the conversation of doing something right and then doing something not right.

Sue Elliott:
And boy, has that been a big piece of my journey. Like, “doing it wrong” is probably my biggest wound that I’m working on at this moment, right? That terrified little child going, “But I do it wrong,” and I love her so much and she needs a lot of soothing.

Linda Lang:
You also talk about self-love as a prominent message from the angels. Tell us why it’s so important.

Sue Elliott:
Oh, thank you for asking. So a reality based in unconditional love, which is what the angels are here to help us facilitate, has to start with unconditional love for ourself first. Because we’ve been so programmed to self-sacrifice and martyr ourselves, or to be a people pleaser, right? To all those things, all those things that feel so, we’ll just say “yucky” with others, come from that yearning for love, that crying out for love, that flailing around. So lashing out in anger, needing to dominate and control others, all these things. are just symptoms of, let’s just call it, a not-yet-ready to fully love ourselves. And there’s massive programming on this planet to block that, because a planet full of people who unconditionally love themselves can’t be manipulated. They can’t be made to buy something they don’t really need because it’ll make them pretty or smart or whatever. So when the angels first showed me that being told that putting yourself first was selfish was actually incredibly ironic.

The people who told us that, the example they gave me was very sweet. They said, “Let’s say you’re a little kid and you’re playing a game and your mother says, ‘Go set the table.’ And you say, ‘I’ll do that as soon as I finish this game.’ And your mom says, ‘Stop being so selfish and go set the table.’ Well, really, she said, ‘Don’t do what you wanna do. Do what I wanna do, which was her being selfish in that moment.” Now we know that moms have the best of intentions and they’ve got lots of stress going on and they’re trying to teach children to be responsible and all those things. But we started picking up these messages about not listening to ourselves, not listening to what we wanna do, not listening to how we feel, right? We’re running around playing outside and mom is sitting on a bench watching and she’s cold, so she makes us put on a sweater, but we’re really hot ’cause we’re running around.

So we stop listening to our bodies. We stop listening to our guidance. We stop eating when we’re hungry and not eating when we’re not hungry, because you’re supposed to eat when mom makes dinner and puts it on the table, right? Not to beat up on the moms on the planet, but all these things happen from a very, very young age that disconnect us from our own truth. And so now the way to be the change, the way to embody our unique aspect of the Divine, is just to very gently notice: how am I feeling inside right now? Am I feeling inner harmony? Am I feeling centered, at peace, joyful, blissed out? Am I feeling turbulence? Any kind of turbulence? Anxious, worried, scared, terrified? And then attend to yourself first, right? If you’re feeling inner harmony, maybe you can amplify that, but there’s not a whole lot that you have to do.

But if you’re feeling anything other than inner harmony, you can use gentle touch to soothe yourself. You can use kind words to yourself. You can ask someone for a hug. You can pet your cat or your dog. You can call your coach. There are a million things you can do to bring yourself back to inner harmony. And the angels encourage us to do that first, because when we come from that place, we’re not lashing out in anger. We’re not needy or clingy, wanting love and approval from outside of ourselves. We’re giving ourselves exactly what we are desiring. And then we’re able to show up present and in our true power and as our unique aspect of the Divine. And we’re able to actually be love in the world.

Sue Elliott:
But it has to start with being love for ourselves first.

Linda Lang:
Do we come in knowing our true divine presence?

Sue Elliott:
So yes, now, and most people born into 3D reality forgot. The angels describe it to me as a game of “not divine,” right? We’re born onto Earth and we pretend that we’re not divine so that we can have all these experiences. But the 5D reality, the new reality that we’re co-creating now, is a true game of being the Divine on Earth. So the beings who are born now, and there have been many of us, not as much me, but there have been many beings over the years who have come in and not forgotten. It’s been probably a challenging journey for a lot of them because of that, because they were told they were wrong and all the things. But more and more, that will be the experience on Earth, is that people will come in and remember that they are a unique aspect of the Divine, and they won’t be manipulatable. They won’t be susceptible to all of the programming and conditioning and bullying and badgering that happens to so many beings on this planet.

Linda Lang:
A lot of people think programming with government, religion, education, but it’s really everywhere.

Sue Elliott:
And it happens before we’re verbal. So it’s sometimes hard to identify as an adult. It starts often in utero, in the womb, where we’re acclimating to the family we’re being born into and the culture we’re being born into and the state of the country we’re being born into, right? Are we at war? Are we in a time of great abundance? And many of us bring in things from other lifetimes too. That we want to play with or resolve or experience a different facet of. So there’s all of that. And that’s not to say that the Angels are gonna instantly dissolve any agreements we had before we came in. Sometimes our Higher Self wants to continue that. So the angels aren’t gonna get in the way of what we as a soul or a higher being choose for ourselves. But they are happy to help with everything. And because it’s a free will planet, as you mentioned, they can do so much more when we ask. So they really want us to ask. Ask, ask all day, every day.

Linda Lang:
How did they suggest that we clear away some of that gunk so we have more access to them?

Sue Elliott:
Well, one of the ways is actually in the book. So they and I, the angels and I, infused the beginning of each chapter. There’s an image and some words with energy that dissolves gunk. So it dissolves subconscious programming, limiting beliefs, rules that you made for yourself when you were 3 years old that made perfect sense to a 3-year-old, but may now be getting in the way of what you actually desire as an adult. So we like to joke you could put the book under your pillow and it would have the same effect as if you read it, but you also probably would have more fun reading it. But of course you don’t need the book. So you have access to the angels 100% of the time.

You can do something as broad and general as, “Angels, I am ready to let go of programming. Thank you, angels, for dissolving programming, belief systems, everything that isn’t supportive of my full flourishing.” And they will start, and they won’t do it all in one fell swoop. One thing about angels is they’re very gentle. So you’re not gonna say something that all of a sudden you don’t remember who you are or where you live. Or, you know, as much as I love Eckhart Tolle’s story of being blissed out on a park bench for months, that’s not what the angels have in store for most of us. It’s a much gentler unfolding.

So oftentimes I’ll sit with a client and the angels will say, “This will unfold over the next 2 weeks,” because they’re going to pull out a little bit at a time so that we can acclimate.

So we let go of something, and then we get used to that, and then we let go of another big chunk of density, and then we get used to that. So we’re not as likely to go back to where we were before they started doing the work. Because when we feel disoriented, then we try and reorient ourselves to who we were before.

Linda Lang:
How important is the awareness of what we’re clearing? Or maybe it’s not important at all. Maybe it’s just the clearing that’s important.

Sue Elliott:
That’s such a beautiful question, because again, it’s a both/and. So sometimes it’s very important, and the angels will make it clear to us. So they may show us an image as a symbol, Or they may show us a little movie or a memory of a certain thing. And other times it’s not important to remember, and it would, in fact, be traumatic to remember and the angel’s going to make sure we don’t remember. So the unfolding will happen in the way that is most divinely perfect for each person. It’s always different.

Linda Lang:
I suppose that’s why some messages are very, very subtle. And some of them are clear as a bell.

Sue Elliott:
Well, and sometimes they get out the cosmic 2×4, right? Give you a good whack upside the head because we weren’t listening and we’re so cute. We have a tendency to second-guess and logic ourselves out of following our guidance. And they just turn up the volume and turn up the volume. And then eventually, you know, we throw our back out and we’re laying on our back for 6 weeks and we have plenty of time to reevaluate all our choices.

Linda Lang:
A lot of people don’t know how to listen. How can we listen better?

Sue Elliott:
Ah, so the angels would love to position this as a sort of a treasure hunt because they’re very playful and they want us to have more joy and play in our lives. So they want us to just begin to notice, you know, some of the usual stuff— looking at the clock and it’s 2:22 or 4:44, which is the angels saying, “Hey, we’re here, ask us for help,” right? Or there’s a feather in your path. Of course, that’s an angel sign. But they’re also going to bring you— signs and symbols that are unique just for you. They know what means what to you, right? They know you so intimately and they love you so much that they’re going to speak to you in a language that’s unique for you.

For example, my mother told me that she would revisit me after she made her transition as a dragonfly. And I’ve had dragonflies go shopping with me in a huge furniture warehouse, right? Like, it just flew with me through the whole store. And I was like, “Wow, Mom, I love shopping with you. Thanks for coming to play.” So there are things like that. At one point in my life, when I was single, I was having trouble figuring out who to date. And so I asked the angels to make it so obvious that even I couldn’t miss it. And so one day, I was standing in a room, and I turned around and everybody in the room was black and white except one man was in color. I was like, “That is obvious enough. Thank you. I will go talk to that man.”

Linda Lang:
I love that story. I have a similar story. When I first met my husband, he had this golden aura around him. And I was like, “Who is this person?” It was just “pay attention,” I think. “Pay attention.”

Sue Elliott:
Yes, I turned around one time and a guy had yes in neon on his forehead. Now, obviously, he didn’t actually have that. But that was what I saw. And I was like, “Okay, (I’m) talking to him.”

Linda Lang:
So when you’re working with the angels, do you hear them? Or is it really through clairvoyant messaging?

Sue Elliott:
Ah, good question. So I was more clairvoyant as a child, and it scared me. So I turned it off, as so many do. I am clairsentient, so I feel in my body what people are experiencing, or I’ll get that wave of goosebumps. And we all get this, by the way. The angels wanna add that the unfiltered truth of the moment comes through our body. So many of us have filters or belief systems or things that get in the way of more cognitive guidance. So they would love for us to notice when we’re getting that.

All choked up feeling, or the hairs on the back of your neck stood up, or something made you gasp with its breathtaking beauty. And I do hear the angels, and oftentimes I hear a whole bunch of angels at once. So it’s a matter of sort of sorting through all that they have to say. And they will show me short movie clips or images, and they will do that with everyone. So they wanna say, if you’re sitting having a conversation with I don’t know, someone who’s trying to sell you insurance. And all of a sudden, you see an image of somebody who ripped you off in the past. That’s a “no, thank you.” That was a sort of symbolic message saying, “this person is like that person.” That’s a “no, thank you.” So our guidance often comes in like that. They use our own experiences, our own memories, to give us the flavor of what we’re experiencing in that moment.

Linda Lang:
There are no secrets.

Sue Elliott:
No. And there’s no judgment. So I know sometimes the minute you hear there are no secrets, people are like, “hmm,” but really there’s no judgment. When we say unconditional love, we mean that. The definition of unconditional love is no matter what you’ve done or not done, no matter what you’ve said or not said, they love you. Period.

Linda Lang:
It’s a little sad to think that there’s probably only a small percentage of the population that has ever had an unconditional love experience that they recognized. We’ve probably all had them, but people don’t recognize it because I guess maybe they’re in their head or in their own judgments.

Sue Elliott:
Well, there’s, there’s an infinite variety of reasons, of course. The most obvious one is there are not a lot of people on this planet who’ve been capable of giving unconditional And there, there are many people who are not yet ready to receive unconditional love. So they’re showing me a relationship that I was in where I just looked into someone’s eyes with love, openness, just presence, and he ran out of the building. Like, he just completely freaked out. And that was because of the woundedness he had that he couldn’t be seen on that level and held on that level. But more and more, we are going to start having those moments or weekends or, you know, I have one dear friend and colleague who had a whole summer where she experienced living in 5D reality. And so now she’s a little sad that it ended, but she has that sort of barometer that she can bring to whatever she’s doing. And the, the knowingness, the felt sense of what it is to be that way.

Linda Lang:
And once you’ve done it once, right? You do have that muscle memory.

Sue Elliott:
It’s an embodiment journey. That’s the tricky part for so many of the lightworkers I meet at this point, is that many of us, because of the density of this reality or the painful experiences that we’ve had along the journey, are not very embodied. Like, my consciousness used to live right about here, and it took a while to get it into my head, and then it took a while to get it down into my body. And there are still moments where I notice it’s back out there. And the angels have great love and gentleness and compassion for us. It’s not that we have to be perfect every moment of every day, but again, it’s coming into the body and doing trauma release work if need be, to be able to come into the body, doing the things that your body is asking for to be able. to navigate this part of the journey.

Linda Lang:
We do have very high expectations for our healers and spiritual teachers… and ourselves, if we’re a lightworker.

Sue Elliott:
Yes. And I mean, I’ve had this since I was a little kid, right? I didn’t care what other people got on a— what their score was on an exam. But I expected that I was going to get 100% on everything always.

Linda Lang:
How did that work out for you, Sue?

Sue Elliott:
Well, most of the time I did. I was one of those annoying children, um, and college students. And when I finally got into the work world, I discovered that not everybody had the same high standards of excellence that I did. And that did not make them bad, wrong, horrible, but it did make me very annoying to work with for a while there.

Linda Lang:
I’m sure, I’m sure. When this path started, when the angels first started to connect with you and communicate with you, did you ever have any doubts or wondered if you were losing your mind? Any of those kind of perspectives?

Sue Elliott:
Oh yeah, so many. And mostly it was a journey of remembering or being shown how to do things. So there’s been plenty of arguing with the angels along the way. Don’t get me wrong, I still do. I’ve shown up in places and they’ve said, do this, right? Things have come outta my mouth that I’m like, I can do that. And then the next thing I know, I’m doing that because so much of this journey has been letting them work through me, letting them use my mouth to speak what needs to be spoken, letting them use my hands to do what can be done. physically. Even writing the book was very much a co-creative endeavor.

So it feels like everything is more and more a co-creative dance. And I think that’s what we experience when we’re in a flow state, or when an athlete is in the zone, right? We just sort of get out of our head, we get out of all the chatter, and we’re present, and we’re focused, and we’re allowing divine love to flow through us in whatever flavor it flows through us. And that’s one of the coolest things. It flows through each of us in our unique flavor. Each of us, as a unique expression of the Divine, can be a unique tool for a job, right? I mean, they, they know all the moving parts and pieces. And the Divine loves experiencing life as each of us. So experiencing life as Linda Lang, for the Divine, feels quite different than experiencing life as Sue Elliot, and they’re both delicious, and they’re both meaningful and expanding all of reality.

Linda Lang:
I love that you said that, because that’s something I’ve said for many, many years… how fascinating each one of us is, and how the Divine gets expanded and gets to know itself through each of these little facets that live a life here on Earth.

Sue Elliott:
The angels want to jump in and say, as the one jewel, right, as a facet on the one jewel, they want us to remember that we’re always interacting with ourself. So if we’re afraid of someone or something, if we’re going to a job interview and we’re getting nervous, we can remind ourselves, I’m just going to go talk to other aspects of myself. I’m just going to sell this thing that I’m nervous about trying to sell to another aspect of myself. I used to have marketing agencies, and the angels and I have reframed marketing and sales from my experience as being the invitation, which feels much more harmonious than trying to get something out of someone, which is how most of the old reality marketing and sales. But the angels and I show up and we’re like, we’re the invitation to allow them to make your life easier and more fun and more peaceful and more “loveful.”

Linda Lang:
That was really interesting to watch, Sue, because the angels came in when they had something they wanted to add to our conversation, you didn’t have to sit and invite them in. Is that typically how they work with you now?

Sue Elliott:
Oh yeah, yeah, they’re ever-present. I don’t have a practice or a process to get ready, and they really want to say this… So angel coaching, which I’m not doing privately anymore, although I may offer, I don’t know… anyway… But angel coaching has been me showing up and being myself. It’s the most me I ever feel. Whether I’m doing it with a friend who’s going through something or, you know, there’s a client, I show up and be my unique aspect of the Divine. And the angels come through whenever there’s something that they know would be supportive. But I used to, in the early days of coaching, show up as Coach Sue everywhere I went until finally one day I heard unsolicited advice is really criticism. The last thing I wanted to do was seem judgmental or critical.

Linda Lang:
Is there a concern to opening up and having something less than love and light coming in?

Sue Elliott:
No. So I’ve felt what it is to have, let’s just say, interference. The angels really like us to be very general about that sort of thing. I don’t need to know the name of it or the origin of it, the flavor. And in fact, when we sense that we’re having interference, they want us to simply give it to love. Give it to the angels. “Thank you, Angels, for filling my body with divine unconditional love. Thank you for filling my home with divine unconditional love.”

Because love is always the answer. My favorite angel joke is, “Love is the answer. What was the question?” But divine unconditional love, if there is an entity in your space, it will either morph to be resonant with divine unconditional love, or it’ll find that so repellent that it will leave your space. So love is the answer. We really don’t have to figure out millions of practices and processes. We can just delegate everything to the angels, fill the space with love, be love for ourselves first, and then go out into the world. They like to make it simple.

Linda Lang:
Well, Sue, it sounds really simple, and yet so many people have a hard time with unconditional love. So what kind of steps can we take to actually put us into that energy?

Sue Elliott:
All right, great question. So the first step is tuning in, right? How am I feeling right now? What’s going on in my body? What’s going on in my emotions? What’s going on in my mind? And attending to that. So they wanna take the emotional piece first because I had never heard this from anyone else. Not to say that it’s unique in all the cosmos, but the angels and I like to treat our emotions as messengers. The magazine that I did, the personal transformation magazine, was called Law of Attraction. And I didn’t really love that name ’cause it was broader than that to begin with. But toward the end, I had a lot of issues with the way people did Law of Attraction processes, including only wanting to feel positive 100% of the time.

And the angels back then were saying, “You’re not meant to see somebody kick their dog and feel positive.” It just doesn’t work like that, right? And they said, “All emotions have value.” Now, I knew Abraham Hicks and talking about, you know, how you could move up the vibrational scale, but they wanted to make it even different from that. We love the movie Inside Out because the little girl— it’s an animated Pixar, I think, movie— and the little girl has different emotions in headquarters inside her head. And each emotion is a different cartoon character, and it looks different, and it sounds different, and it acts differently because it stays in character, right? So disgust is different from joy is different from sadness. And they love it when we picture each of our emotions as a cute little cartoon character that’s showing up to bring us a message. So if you’re feeling anxious, they don’t want you to go get medicated— although they’re not saying that’s bad and wrong.

And if it helps you, by all means. And most of us greet anxiety with whack-a-mole. “Go away, go away, go away,” right? And it pops up over there and then we hit it and then pops up over there and we hit it over there. And they’re saying, it will keep popping up until you receive the message. So we would rather that you say, “Hi, anxiety, what is it that you want me to know?” And then anxiety can deliver its message and go back to the sandbox and play with all the other emotions till it has another message for you. So anxiety feels seen and heard and met with love. And each of your emotions has a message. There is a part of you who feels anxious who wants to tell you something.

There’s a part of you who feels scared or angry, right? And the anger wants to show up and say, “That was not fair, and that person shouldn’t have done that, and it was wrong,” and “there should be repercussions,” and “we don’t ever wanna experience that again.” And when you can say, “I hear you, anger. Absolutely. I hear you. Thank you very much for delivering that valuable message.” Then anger’s like, “Ah.” And then we do what we feel inspired and guided to do with that message, right? It’s not that we’re gonna spew our anger all over people. Oh, there are times where the angels will guide us to speak with anger because that’s the only way this person is gonna receive what we have to say.

So they don’t wanna say anything is always right or always wrong, but when we receive the message from anger, we stop feeling angry in a minute. And they wanna say most humans have had at least one emotion that they’ve suppressed. So perhaps your family, when you were growing up, said, “Stiff upper lip, big boys don’t cry,” or “I’ll give you something to cry about.” You know, all those things. So you don’t ever wanna feel sadness. And if you start to feel sad, you may even get this kind of primal fear coming up because we needed those big people to take care of us when we were little. So the angels are encouraging us to notice when we start to feel resistance to an emotion and maybe just do an activity to release that emotion. So if you have a lot of sadness that you’ve stuffed down into your system because you didn’t wanna express it, watch a tearjerker movie, listen to music that makes you cry. If you’re feeling a lot of anger and you know why you’re feeling it, or you just know that I’ve never let myself be angry, so I have 50 years of anger stuffed down.

Play some music that, you know… I love to play Judas Priest, You’ve Got Another Thing Coming. And like, and I guarantee you by the end of 3, like, bang-your-head songs, the anger is outta my system and I feel so much better. And I got some exercise. So it’s all good. But it may be that that is not your thing. Maybe you wanna tear up a bunch of junk mail, or maybe you wanna pile pillows on your bed and pound ’em and let the anger out that way. It doesn’t really matter how you do it, but the angels really encourage us to let the stuck emotions out. That will help with being able to be divine unconditional love.

The more gunk we have in our system, the easier it is for us to be triggered. So sometimes that gunk is a trauma. That’s why they encourage things like trauma release exercise, where you don’t have to name the trauma or dive deep and talk about it for hours. You can just let your body release whatever is stuck in there. And those sort of things, we call them shrapnel, because most of your listeners have done some inner work, maybe lots and lots of inner work. But if there are little shards of things still left, the angels can go in and they can dissolve that for us. They can give us insights that help us release whatever that last remaining bit of gunk was, that last layer of the onion. Or they can show us a practice or a process or deliver a song on the radio that’s gonna make us jump around like a crazy person and get the stuff out.

And all those things help us to be fully present in the moment. Because at the end of the day, all we have to be is present in this moment. And then noticing how we feel. So I do all the things to get present in the moment. I get rid of the stuck stuff. I notice I’m triggered. I love myself. I, I soothe myself.

This is called “havening.” You’ll see me do it a lot because it was developed by neuroscientists and therapists to reset the nervous system. So it’s kind of like hugging yourself and petting yourself. You may talk to yourself, “Oh sweetheart, I know you’re scared. It was scary. I’m sorry that you experienced that.” You may want to get someone else to help you. Hugging, we mention hugging a lot because our bodies are built to regulate via physical connection with somebody else whose nervous system is regulated.

So if we’re feeling triggered, angry, scared, whatever it is, and we hug someone who’s feeling calm or peaceful or joyful or loving, it helps our nervous system reset. That’s why when we’re little, we go running to mommy when something scares us. I love that the angels share things that are super practical and free. And even if you’re a person who needs science-based evidence, you can go find it, right? We know that a group of people getting together and focusing their intention on a polluted body of water can clear up that water. Thanks to Dr. Masaru Emoto’s work and others, we know that a group of people meditating with the energy of peace can affect the crime rate. Like, we know these things cognitively.  Now we get to embody them.

Linda Lang:
As you were talking, Sue, it made me think about this really transformational time that we’re going through as a species and socially and personally… and if part of this transformation is our guck coming up, which is why it seems like we’re so far away from the light.

Sue Elliott:
So first, the angels wanna say, well, “Be gentle with yourself.” The more we can meet that part of ourselves who’s disappointed, right? “I’ve done all this work, why am I back in the same old spot?” Angels wanna say we’re on a spiral journey. So it may be helpful to remember that, right? “I’m not back in that same old place. I’m 27 layers up on the spiral now, and I can look at it with, from higher perspective now.” So that thing that used to debilitate me for 6 weeks when it happened before now may only be painful for 6 minutes or 6 seconds, right? How awesome is that? So we can appreciate how far we’ve come. We can appreciate ourselves for doing the work. But they do wanna acknowledge what you said on another level, which is we’re so excited for what’s next.

I guarantee you everyone listening to this podcast is here to co-create the new reality. They’re part of the team that came to do this. So we’ve known what’s possible because we’re here for that. We’re encoded for that. And we’ve likely had some flailing around in the old reality because we’re like, it doesn’t make sense. It’s just crazy madness out there. What are those people doing? So they want us to give ourselves more grace, right? We, we didn’t fit in because we weren’t here for that. The stuff that’s coming up now really is what we referenced a moment ago.

It’s the little tiny shards. It’s the little bits of shrapnel that are still stuck in the system. It’s the last few layers of the onion. So the more we can greet that stuff with, “Oh good, it’s coming out now.” In the immortal words of Shrek, “Better out than in,” right? So it’s not that we’re doing something wrong. It’s not that we’ve failed at clearing all the gunk out of our… It’s that the last little bit of gunk is kind of waving on its way out the door. So if we can greet it that way, you know, and it’s a farewell greeting, it’s like, “Oh, hey, you were still in there. Oh, have a nice trip. Bye-bye.” Right?

The more we can be that kind of gentle, playful, loving with ourselves. They wanna say there were many parts of us that were traumatized by the old reality. We were guilted, we were shamed, maybe we were pointed at and laughed at. We were told that we were too much of this and not enough of that. It happens to everybody in the old reality, but lightworkers take it particularly hard. And they want us to know that if we judge ourselves for judging— this is one of the coolest things that they showed me recently— judgment is a preemptive attempt to stop ourselves from being shamed or ridiculed or guilted again. So self-judgment and also judgment of others is something that we set up. It is a subconscious program. It’s a rule we made for ourselves never to do that again. So if we can be gentle with that part of ourselves too, because she’s trying to protect you, she’s trying to keep you safe. We don’t have to do it that way anymore. We can thank her for her support. We can thank her for all the hard and wonderful work she’s done over the years, and she can go relax now. It’s a relief.

Linda Lang:
That’s so interesting, Sue. I think what surprised me the most about this conversation is that we brought the angels down to humanity’s level— where we need them— instead of just love and light and reaching for that peace, the support. I mean, it’s built in there, but it’s also embracing our humanness in this conversation.

Sue Elliott:
Thank you. Yes, there’s a reason that we’ve each experienced the things that we’ve experienced. For me, working on car magazines for over 20 years helped me make things very physical, practical. It was hands-on, how-to magazines, you know, grab that wrench and here’s what you do if it won’t come loose. And taking that and making it a step-by-step, easy-to-follow article, or then food magazines making it a step-by-step, easy-to-follow recipe. So the angels use me to bring messages that are very simple, that are very practical, like fixing your car or making a meal, right?

There are other people who are more philosophical or metaphysical. And I can be those things, but at the end of the day, they use me as the tool for the job for people who may be new on the path or frustrated with, you know, “I went to the retreat and I was so fired up and I thought I was completely different. And 4 days later, I was back to being who I was before.” And they love you and we understand. So this is the where the rubber meets the road stuff of, you know, “I went to that meeting at work and now I feel terrified and I can’t think and what do I do?”

Linda Lang:
Speaking of angels and how we work with them, would you be open to bringing a message specifically for us today?

Sue Elliott:
Yes. Oh, I would love to… waves of goosebumps… Okay, they’re excited. So the angels want us to know that we’re already doing it. We’re not late, we’re not failing, we’re not doing it wrong. We’re already doing what we came here to do. They would love for you to feel some relief, a lot of hope, and also some appreciation for yourself for all that you’ve been through and all that you’ve quite literally accomplished already.

They want to say that many of the beings, Light Beings, on the planet struggle to find their purpose, quote unquote, because their purpose has been very general. For some, it was to embody the energy of peace or curiosity or calm or playfulness, all of the things that we have been taught are positive emotions. But more so with a depth and a resonance that’s innate to who you are as a being, because those things are very beneficial for the planet. They’re part of what has enabled the planet to rise in frequency, and they’re part of what has enabled nature to heal in many locations. They’re part of what has enabled a lot of the density in the collective consciousness on Earth to be removed, and what has allowed a lot of, let’s just say, dense beings to leave the planet. So no matter how general your purpose is, it is divine. There is nothing wrong. And in fact, there are many, many things so divinely perfect about going and sitting in nature, whatever flavor of nature you love— forest, ocean, desert— and meditating or hiking or swimming or journaling, whatever you feel inspired and guided to do.

And you don’t have to be perfect about it. You can go journal about all the things that are upsetting you and get them out. That’s incredibly valuable. And nature is, of course, one of the most supportive places to do that. There’s less noise and interference. The reason we love being in nature is we feel that palpable energy of unconditional love. So if you’re wondering what unconditional love feels like, it really can be as simple as hugging a tree. Or I have lamb’s ears outside my door and I go pet the lamb’s ear leaves on the way to and from the house.

Some of us have more specific purposes. For me, it’s helping people embody their aspect of the Divine and feel divine unconditional love. And also the second part will be, and this is more and more, experiencing work as joyful contribution. And I know that because when I say it, I feel deep resonance. But the angels don’t want anyone to get all tangled up in what is my purpose and what is not my purpose. Again, they wanna say it’s all path and all we ever have to do— especially as Lightworkers— is attend to our own energy, needs, body, right? If you’re hungry, eat. If you’re tired, rest. Soothe yourself if you’re feeling off in any way.

And be present, because your purpose is being present and attending to what the angels bring to you in the moment. It’s very simple. We like to make it very complicated, and we want to have a good elevator pitch for the people who ask what we do. The angels also want to say, it’s almost impossible for Lightworkers to deliver the same words over and over again anymore. And we don’t have to beat ourselves up for that. We will say what is resonant for us in the moment, and likely what is going to be resonant for the person in front of us in the moment, and sometimes what is going to be most repellent for the person in front of us in the moment. And that’s divinely perfect too. Everything moving forward is orchestrated by the angels according to resonance.

And so we don’t have to manage it, but we do get to notice. So if I’m feeling joyful, even if somebody I love, one of my closest friends who’s usually resonant, isn’t feeling resonant in the moment, it may be because they’re so far from joy, right? People who are feeling despair do not want to hang around with people who are feeling joy. Joyful people are annoying when you’re feeling despair. So The more we can sort of let the angels orchestrate all the things, let go of trying to figure things out between our ears anymore. I call myself a recovering intellectual. Many of us are. We’ve been trained to be that way since we were little kids and we had to have the answer when the teacher called on us. But now we get to do so much less mental math, right? We get to show up, become as present as we can in the moment.

And then maybe use our favorite way of tuning into the angels for guidance. “Angels, is there something for me to do or say right now?” And the angels want to add that usually there is not. About 85% of the time, the answer to that question is no. We saw what we were intended to see. We heard what we were intended to hear. If we hear no and we still want to do something, they say we can be love or we can be compassion. If the people around us are feeling despair, we can be hope. Again, we have so much evidence that that is valuable, powerful, and transformative.

We know that screaming at plants makes them wilt, and we know that talking lovingly to plants helps them thrive. Humans even more so. But we don’t have to verbalize it, and we don’t have to act on it. We can simply radiate it. So when you’re sitting in that meeting at work and people are getting annoyed with each other and frustrated and tension is mounting, you can be calm. You can be clarity. You can be compassion, which are all flavors of love. If you’re sitting at home and your toddler is freaking out because they’re trying to learn to walk and it’s not working, or whatever it is… or your spouse is freaking out because whatever it is… the remote won’t work, you can be love.

If you’re freaking out, part of you can be love, or you can simply delegate it to the angels. The more you’re freaking out, the more general the angels encourage us to go. So if you’re freaking out, it’s probably not going to be helpful to be very specific in what you delegate to the angels. So if I’m freaking out, I start with, “Thank you, Angels, for taking care of everything.” I know it’s true. It helps me feel a little better. So they’re encouraging us to look for that relief when we’re not feeling centered and present and yummy. Simply look for what brings relief.

So, “Thank you, angels, for taking care of my body.” “Thank you, angels, for taking care of my health.” “Thank you, angels, for taking care of my finances.” “Thank you, angels, for taking care of my children.” “Thank you, angels, for taking care of…”— you fill in the blank. You’ll know that it’s working because you’ll feel lighter physically. Maybe you feel like a load got lifted off your shoulders; the weight of the world isn’t on your shoulders anymore.

Or you may feel like the room got brighter. You may feel relief or peace. If you don’t, just play with the words, make it more general. And please know that these simple boots-on-the-ground, moment-by-moment, what you’re experiencing and how you’re being for yourself, moments of life, this is how we co-create the new reality. It’s not some airy-fairy philosophical idea, and it’s not some highfalutin thing that you’re not ready for or that you need some ascension process to get to. It happens by how we show up for ourselves and then for others every moment of every day, with no need for perfection, with no need for 100% on every test. They’re laughing at me. It’s just a little more and a little more.

And they wanna add that we’re past the tipping point. This is happening. We’re past the point of no return. We are able to live in the new reality, in a reality based in divine unconditional love, more and more each day. And if we’re not— they really, really, really wanna say this to the Lightworker community— if we are not experiencing 100% being in the new reality, that’s probably on purpose. We’re probably here to communicate with people who are not in their new reality to help them get there. They wanna say that again because it’s big. This is something that we weaponize against ourselves a lot.

If we are not experiencing being in the new reality 100% of the time, that is divinely perfect. Because we are still meant to be helping those who are looking for our guidance, our unique flavor of healing, coaching, painting, whatever it may be, to help them find their way there. There are some beings who are meant to be there 100% of the time, but much of the Light Community is not. We’re not doing it wrong. We’re not failing, we’re not deficient or defective or in any way less than those who are there full-time, any more than we’re better than those who are meant to keep the old reality functioning. That too is a divine purpose. That bureaucrat who made you crazy, or that police officer who gave you the ticket, they may be here as the divine purpose of keeping the old reality functional, because it would not be a kind and gentle unfolding for humanity for everything to collapse and fall apart around them. So wherever you are is perfect.

However you are is perfect. Whoever you are is so much more than perfect. It’s divine. I can’t think of a more beautiful message to have been honored to deliver.

Linda Lang:
So beautiful, Sue. Thank you so much. And let’s extend our gratitude to the angels as well.

Sue Elliott:
So much love.

Linda Lang:
Agreed. Agreed. Sue, tell us about your book.

Sue Elliott:
So a couple years ago, the angels guided me to stop doing private coaching and to take all of the best stuff we’d been doing for almost 20 years and put it into a book so it could be more accessible to people… a lot less expensive. You have it 24/7. So the book is called My Angel Coach: Receive Your Divine Guidance and Feel the Angels’ Love. And it has 63 short chapters to support and uplift you. You can read it as a regular book from front to back. You can read a chapter or two at night to soothe yourself to sleep. You can use it as a divination tool, like an angel card reading, where you ask a question and let it open to a random page. And it does help. Unlike most self-help books, the angels actually do a lot of the work for you.

Linda Lang:
There’s attunements or alignments in the book as well, right?

Sue Elliott:
So each chapter starts with what we’ve called an Angel Attunement, and the angels have infused each of those with the energy to dissolve what we call gunk. So subconscious programming, limiting beliefs, rules you made for yourself when you were 2 years old. So the book does a lot of the work for you. Unlike most self-help books where you have to sort of muscle your way through it all day, every day, the angels are eager and excited to dive in and do this work for you. to make life easier and to surprise and delight you along the journey.

Linda Lang:
Beautiful, beautiful. Now, Sue, where can we send people who want to know more about your work?

Sue Elliott:
Ah, you can find everything at myangelcoach.com. And we have a gift for you. So if you like the flavor of what came through, the angels and I have created an 8-minute audio called Soothing Energy from the Angels. So if you’re feeling off, this is a great pick-me-up relief. You can even leave it playing below audible level in the background to condition your space. And you can find it at myangelcoach.com/soothing.

Linda Lang:
Thank you, Sue.

Sue Elliott:
Oh, thank you, Linda. You have such beautiful energy and you called through the most gorgeous things. Wow.

Linda Lang:
Beautiful, beautiful. Thank you. Thank you. And thank you for listening to this week’s edition of Exploring the Mystical Side of Life. You’ll find all of our conversations on YouTube, Spotify, your favorite podcast platform. Come visit me at ThoughtChange.com, pick up your copy of Learning to Listen, and we will see you again next time. Bye for now.
