We all carry some form of generational trauma and pain. But its important for you to know that you are not your trauma. The pain you’ve carried, the scars you bear - they are not the sum of who you are.

It's easy to believe that the past has the final word, but the truth is, you have always been enough.

You have always been worthy of love, compassion, and kindness, simply because you exist.

Healing begins when you realise that you’re not broken, only shaped by experiences that never had the power to define you.

You are a whole, radiant being, far greater than any hardship you've endured.

Thank you so much for listening!

Going through an existential crisis is like being caught in a storm of uncertainty, where you look around you, at the life you’ve lived and you ask yourself, if that’s all there is, where the essence of who you thought you were has begun to feel fragmented.

Questions about purpose, identity, and the meaning of life flood your mind, leaving a sense of disconnection from everything you’ve known and built. It's as if the foundation that once anchored you, begins to crumble, and you're forced to confront the uncomfortable reality that maybe your sense of self has always been more of an illusion than a concrete truth.

In this moment of vulnerability, you start to search for answers, but often, all you end up finding, are more questions.

A spiritual journey can be a very challenging one. If you can imagine that for the most part, there is no set manual or a convenient spiritual mentor/guru/shaman at hand to help guide you as you try and figure things out. And so we are exposed bare, to a world full of mystery. The question then becomes "how do I know that I'm on the right path?". The answer is out there, I'd like to believe!

Have you ever had an experience that was so emotional and visceral, that it shook you to the core, and made you question everything about your life?

In this short prologue I take you through the day I had an encounter with underworld spirits that changed my spiritual journey forever! It's a true story, of everything that happened on that cold morning in February 2022 that would tear my world apart!

Thank you so much for listening!

Self-discovery is not about becoming something new, but about unearthing what has always been.

Beneath those layers of expectation, conditioning, fear, and identity, lies a deeper truth—the essence of who we are. And yet, that truth cannot be read in a book or handed down from someone else. It must be lived, uncovered one step at a time through experience, reflection, and often, solitude.

The spiritual implications of this journey are so profound. To seek oneself is, in a way, to seek the divine—whether one names it God, the Universe, Consciousness, or simply Truth.

Welcome to How I Met My SOUL©, I’m your host Shumba Guru, a descendant of the Great Lion Clan of Southern Africa.

Firstly I’d like to thank you for checking out my Podcast, it’s really appreciated. It’s a passion project of mine that was born out of my own personal journey of self-discovery, which exposed all the unresolved trauma that I’d been carrying for years. Some how this podcast has helped me to start dealing with my pain, to face my past, and open myself up to find my resolution through acceptance, and letting go!

I really hope you’ll join me, as I delve into topics that will hopefully help you to find meaning in your own spiritual experiences to hopefully lead you towards your ultimate connection with your divine soul and life purpose.

I’ve got so many captivating stories of my own experiences to share with you as well as some inspiring conversations with friends from all walks of life. I hope it will help to shine a light on the spiritual experiences of everyday people, who are awakening to spirit, everyday!

Lastly, I pray that you receive great wisdom, upliftment, expanded consciousness and real transformation.
