The Journey Of Self Discovery: From Ego to Spirituality, Awakening, Happiness and Passion With Angie Langley
In this episode of Mindful You, Alan Carroll interviews Angie Langley. Angie always knew she was different and blocked it from a young age. As she grew older she couldn’t ignore the signs when before a car accident a voice told her to ‘get her (your) seat belt on’. Through many near death experiences Angie went through the process of awakening and decided to help other woman on their happiness journey.

Welcome to the mindful U podcast. My name is
Alan Carroll:Alan Carroll. And I'll be your host. Today's guest, Angie
Alan Carroll:Langley is a spiritual transformation coach who has
Alan Carroll:been involved in healing, both from an intuitive type of
Alan Carroll:healing, a energy healing, and even a trauma healing for many
Alan Carroll:years. And she's here today to share her experiences, and share
Alan Carroll:some of the techniques that you can use to heal and relax and
Alan Carroll:calm the energy down. And so you're able to be more mindful
Alan Carroll:and more present in the moment. So please welcome Angie to the
Alan Carroll:mindful you podcast. Well, let's talk a little bit about your
Alan Carroll:spirituality because mindfulness you is about spirituality.
Alan Carroll:Because we say that spirituality is that space of consciousness
Alan Carroll:beyond the physical world, and most people are in the physical
Alan Carroll:world. And so how do you get from the physical world to that
Alan Carroll:spiritual world? That's the path, and you've been on that
Alan Carroll:path. So my audience would like to know, how you how you made it
Alan Carroll:from that ego identity, this side of the bridge to that side
Alan Carroll:of the bridge?
Angie Langley:Well, I don't have much of an ego anymore.
Alan Carroll:That's good. I made your foreign the bridge.
Alan Carroll:That's good. Yes. Well,
Angie Langley:it was quite a battle. But I have control now.
Angie Langley:And that is one of the things that I teach people to sell. But
Angie Langley:to go from being a human to be in spiritual, um, it's quite a
Angie Langley:journey. It's not something I mean, I know some people say,
Angie Langley:you know, it's like, it just happened like this. To a woman
Angie Langley:one time she said, she got high, and that's how she had her
Angie Langley:spiritual awakening. And I was like, Oh, well, it wasn't that
Angie Langley:easy for me. But, um, but when I was a kid, when I was a
Angie Langley:teenager, I always knew I was different. And I could hear my
Angie Langley:name being called sometimes, and nobody was there. And I would go
Angie Langley:to people's houses that I've never been to before. But I just
Angie Langley:knew that I was there before. You know what I mean? Yeah. So,
Angie Langley:of course, being a teenager, I mean, who do you tell way back
Angie Langley:then? Right. And so I blocked it, blocked everything. And, but
Angie Langley:I know, my guides have been around me all the time. And they
Angie Langley:do talk to me. Um, I had a car accident one time. And about
Angie Langley:five minutes before we had this accident. This was like before
Angie Langley:we had to wear seatbelts. Sure. Yeah, they were they weren't
Angie Langley:mandatory then. So yeah, I heard this voice saying, and it wasn't
Angie Langley:in my head. It was there here. Yeah. said Get your seatbelt on
Angie Langley:blue. And I was like, whooping the seatbelt on? I mean, I'm
Angie Langley:only going to my grandma, she lives down the road two miles,
Angie Langley:right. Like, why would I go there? And then I heard get just
Angie Langley:fell on this. And I'm like, okay. Come on. And just as I get
Angie Langley:my seatbelt on, we're the head on collision. I wouldn't be here
Angie Langley:today, if it wasn't for them. Yeah, so I've had quite a few
Angie Langley:near death experiences. So yeah.
Alan Carroll:So that voice that guidance is definitely something
Alan Carroll:that most people don't don't have. I've not seen anybody.
Alan Carroll:Action say that. However, it's not common, that that people are
Alan Carroll:connected with that transcendent dimension of consciousness,
Alan Carroll:which can see things in a timeless place that everything's
Alan Carroll:happening at once and I see the car is going to be hidden. And
Alan Carroll:listen, listen, you know, you got to do something. And Jake,
Alan Carroll:you got you got to put the seatbelt and then to say it
Alan Carroll:twice. And the second time really makes you a believer.
Angie Langley:Yes, yes. Um, yeah, I've had, um, I don't
Angie Langley:know, they, I have them on their toes. Let's just say they did
Angie Langley:again. I have my Spirit Guides. There. They're on their toes.
Angie Langley:Yeah. Yeah. I've had I fallen asleep driving one day. And I've
Angie Langley:heard wake up. And I was like what? Like this and here I am
Angie Langley:like this close to the ditch. Yeah. So it's, it's, they look
Angie Langley:after me. So there is a higher
Alan Carroll:or higher consciousness and you offer
Alan Carroll:programs, you offer guidance, you offer coaching in order to
Alan Carroll:support people in experiencing those other dimensions of
Alan Carroll:consciousness.
Angie Langley:Well, what I do is, I'm a happiness expert. And
Angie Langley:I specialize in intuitive healing, energy healing, and
Angie Langley:trauma healing. So what I do is I help professional women who
Angie Langley:have faced trauma and loss every time they turn around, how to
Angie Langley:have an amazing breakthrough into their happiness. So they
Angie Langley:can magnetize the light, they always want it without falling
Angie Langley:into that old sadness again. So, and some of the women that I
Angie Langley:work with have been in therapy, and I've had other modalities,
Angie Langley:and they just get to a certain point. But they, they're stuck
Angie Langley:there. So they come to me, and I show them how to be in touch
Angie Langley:with the laws of the universe. How to, sorry, how to magnetize
Angie Langley:how to, you know, shed their darkness so they can shine their
Angie Langley:light so they can use the law of attraction to get the things
Angie Langley:that they want?
Alan Carroll:That's great. That's great. I found that Do
Alan Carroll:you have a practice that you do a meditation practice or a
Alan Carroll:mindfulness practice that you have incorporated into your
Alan Carroll:daily practice daily life?
Angie Langley:I do. Um, I have a Facebook group of amazing
Angie Langley:women. And and I have a ultimate happiness blueprint.
Alan Carroll:What does that mean? Can I show you what it is?
Alan Carroll:Sure, absolutely, please.
Angie Langley:So it's just there. This is the blueprint.
Angie Langley:Yeah, there's three levels. There's the triage, the tools
Angie Langley:transform. And each level, there are three steps. So we have
Angie Langley:assessment, alignment, and awakening for the triage. So let
Angie Langley:me explain a little bit
Alan Carroll:awakening. I like awakening to talk about the
Alan Carroll:awakening process.
Angie Langley:The Awakening is becoming aware of what is
Angie Langley:holding you back. Do you procrastinate sometimes? You
Angie Langley:bet. Do you kind of doubt yourself sometimes? Sure. Yeah.
Angie Langley:Well, in the awakening stage, we get rid of all that.
Alan Carroll:It goes away. Yeah. So I don't procrastinate
Alan Carroll:anymore. I work harder.
Angie Langley:No, you're just more aware of what's holding you
Angie Langley:back. Like if there's something that you absolutely want to do.
Angie Langley:Okay. Like today. This was my first pod a palooza. And, of
Angie Langley:course, I was kind of nervous, you know, because I didn't know
Angie Langley:what to expect. And it was kind of like, oh, do I really need to
Angie Langley:do this? Like, maybe I should go here? Or maybe I should go do
Angie Langley:something else. And I'm thinking No, sure. No, I'm doing this. I
Angie Langley:signed up for it. I'm doing. So yeah.
Alan Carroll:So awakening is becoming aware of the thoughts
Alan Carroll:that you're thinking about the situation that you're in? Yeah.
Alan Carroll:Okay. Yeah. And then we go to the next step,
Angie Langley:which is all of the tools. So we educate, where
Angie Langley:are we, where are we, we educate, and we experiment, and
Angie Langley:we elevate. So I give you all the tools to release all of that
Angie Langley:trauma, all that loss, all that darkness.
Alan Carroll:What would be an example of a tool that you would
Alan Carroll:that you would give some money to us?
Angie Langley:Do you have a toolbox? You bet. So what is the
Angie Langley:tool that you have in your toolbox?
Alan Carroll:I have a screwdriver.
Angie Langley:Okay. So with the screwdriver, you're tightening
Angie Langley:things up, right? That's right. So a lot of people who have
Angie Langley:trauma, their thoughts are scattered everywhere. So we
Angie Langley:grabbed that screwdriver, and we're tightening up all those
Angie Langley:loose thoughts. so they can focus on one thing.
Alan Carroll:Okay, so that would be an example of a tool
Alan Carroll:that would allow you to focus your attention and not be
Alan Carroll:distracted. Yes. Okay, cool. Let's go to the third step.
Alan Carroll:Transformation, I think it was wasn't it transform, transform,
Angie Langley:that's where all the magic begins to transform is
Angie Langley:the buffer, the barrier and the boundaries. So when you get up
Angie Langley:here, you don't have all that darkness, all that trauma, all
Angie Langley:that baggage is gone. So up here is where we come into our power.
Angie Langley:Like in the buffer, we notice all the things that are changing
Angie Langley:inside of us, you know, we're more confident, we're more
Angie Langley:powerful, we're more decisive. And then we shining our light
Angie Langley:even more so that we start attracting the things that we
Angie Langley:want in our lives. So the barrier like if you want more
Angie Langley:money, no, money is gonna come to you. More opportunities are
Angie Langley:going to come to you. And all that struggle and worry, it's
Angie Langley:gonna go away. And then once we get to two or this point, right,
Angie Langley:we can do some strong boundaries. So when you're
Angie Langley:there, so you don't go back to the triage.
Alan Carroll:Strong boundaries means things you can do to
Alan Carroll:reinforce the tools that you're using over time so that you
Alan Carroll:don't lose the muscle.
Angie Langley:Yes. Oh,
Alan Carroll:cool. Well, that's very nice. And so I liked the
Alan Carroll:idea of the happiness you talked about happiness expert.
Alan Carroll:Happiness seems to be fleeting, seems to be sometimes I'm happy
Alan Carroll:sometimes I'm not happy. And, and it seems like I would always
Alan Carroll:want to be happy, what if I could choose, I always choose to
Alan Carroll:be happy. And yet times I'm not, I'm not happy. And so I think it
Alan Carroll:would be great to talk a little bit about happiness, and how you
Alan Carroll:define the start with a definition of how you define
Alan Carroll:happiness.
Angie Langley:I define happiness is living the life you
Angie Langley:always want it to be healthy, and strong. And having your own
Angie Langley:control of your own decisions. Because a lot of people who
Angie Langley:aren't happy, um, they're sick, they're depressed, they have
Angie Langley:autoimmune diseases, they have cancer. Right. And, and this all
Angie Langley:from embedded emotions that have happened from trauma, from loss,
Angie Langley:could be from past lives could be generational.
Alan Carroll:And go into trauma is not just physical trauma,
Alan Carroll:there could be emotional trauma also, correct?
Angie Langley:Yeah. Yeah. Because we all our body is kind
Angie Langley:of like a big sponge, right? We absorb all this stuff. And we
Angie Langley:just tap it down and tap it down and tap it down until we are not
Angie Langley:healthy and happy anymore.
Alan Carroll:What comes to mind is the idea of, of space and
Alan Carroll:creating space versus condensing and trauma causes a condensing
Alan Carroll:of energy and space creates an opening of the energy and
Alan Carroll:somehow you have to give yourself that that that space
Alan Carroll:and from a psychology point of view I look at it ng is a lot
Alan Carroll:about forgiveness. And being able to forgive that which you
Alan Carroll:consider to be had attacked you or made you scratch you hold
Alan Carroll:that energy of resentment or guilt or grievances all your
Alan Carroll:life what my mother said to me that this day, I never forget
Alan Carroll:what you said to me. And to me that that's not healthy for for
Alan Carroll:what you talked about living in the life I way I would like to
Alan Carroll:live.
Angie Langley:That's true. And what are we doing to our kids
Angie Langley:and our grandkids so we have to break that cycle. And they're
Angie Langley:gonna be happy.
Alan Carroll:And so by you working on yourself by you
Alan Carroll:developing a set of tools and skills that allows you to manage
Alan Carroll:yourself in the energy that you've swept through this chaos
Alan Carroll:to the space and the outer world. In order to achieve that
Alan Carroll:calmness and the clarity that you're talking about. And then
Alan Carroll:putting boundaries limits to hold the hold it in place. It's
Alan Carroll:great how long have you been doing this model?
Angie Langley:Um, well, I brought it in by accident.
Angie Langley:Because this is what I've been doing to heal myself. And I've
Angie Langley:had, of course, I've done some weird and wonderful things. I
Angie Langley:learned how to swim when I was 48 years old after almost
Angie Langley:drowning when I was 16.
Alan Carroll:So the trauma of almost drowning was with you
Alan Carroll:until you were 48. And finally, you said, I'm going to face the
Alan Carroll:fear. Yeah,
Angie Langley:yes. Something pushed me to it. Right. And I
Angie Langley:just had to do it. Yeah. Why? I've no idea. But
Unknown:well, you survived. Yeah. Yeah. And
Angie Langley:I have everything else that was holding me back.
Angie Langley:Because I was like, okay, you know, something's coming up
Angie Langley:something big, like this political loser. And it was
Angie Langley:like, you know, what, if I can jump in to a 12 feet of water,
Angie Langley:and not drown? I can do.
Alan Carroll:Right. Right, right. Being able to have the
Alan Carroll:voice inside your head, be your ally, rather than always
Alan Carroll:defending and protecting. It's pushing, it's pushing you a
Alan Carroll:little bit. Take take a risk. And I think there's Helen Keller
Alan Carroll:talked about life as either a daring adventure or nothing.
Alan Carroll:That's true. And so the you're, we're constantly have an
Alan Carroll:opportunity to push into that danger zone. And, and you did it
Alan Carroll:and you survived, which then gives you experience in order to
Alan Carroll:take that experience to the next boundary, the next barrier and
Alan Carroll:go, Oh, my God, my God. Well, I did it once. Maybe I can do it
Alan Carroll:again.
Angie Langley:I can do it again. Right. And then I use
Angie Langley:this experience to help other women too, right? So um, and of
Angie Langley:course, I posted all these accomplishments on my Facebook
Angie Langley:profile. And I've had women say, Okay, how did you do that? Like,
Angie Langley:I have this issue, what do I do? And I'm like, Well, I don't
Angie Langley:know, all I did was this. And then I had a woman, she told me,
Angie Langley:you know, you transformed my life. I wouldn't be where I am
Angie Langley:today without you. Right? I'm thinking, Well, how many more
Angie Langley:women can I help? Right? So this is how it began, I just started
Angie Langley:to evolve all of my experience, all of my fields, all the
Angie Langley:experts that I've worked with all of my knowledge, and my
Angie Langley:guests, you know, and I just bundled them all up into the
Angie Langley:ultimate happiness blueprint, and I'm changing lives.
Alan Carroll:Yep, yep. And therefore, that gives you the
Alan Carroll:courage to do the PATA Palooza to push the uncomfortable
Alan Carroll:envelope because you're not doing it for you. You're doing
Alan Carroll:it for all the women who haven't had the opportunity to
Alan Carroll:experience the things that you've experienced. And, and
Alan Carroll:that is, that that's God's work. That's, that's the work of
Alan Carroll:spiritual people on the planet, in order to reduce the
Alan Carroll:suffering, or the dissatisfaction that people
Alan Carroll:experienced. And so you found your passion. I have that's
Alan Carroll:wonderful. That's wonderful. Yeah.
Angie Langley:And no many people do. Right. So
Alan Carroll:well, you're, I don't meet a lot of people who
Alan Carroll:are, who are happy. They meet a lot of people who have
Alan Carroll:complaints, which is not the path pathway that I know to
Alan Carroll:happiness. But they complain a lot. And that, that's, that's
Alan Carroll:like the opposite of happy happiness is going the way I
Alan Carroll:want it to go. Not the way I don't want it to go. It's not
Alan Carroll:going the way I want it to go. Well, that's not happy.
Angie Langley:No, your happiness very sad again, it's
Angie Langley:just blocking their happiness.
Alan Carroll:Right? Right. The thoughts that you have in your
Alan Carroll:mind are, are like paint on the canvas. And you paint the
Alan Carroll:canvas, whatever the thought saw, your thinking becomes the
Alan Carroll:mind's eye canvas. And that's the canvas that I use to look at
Alan Carroll:you. And I if I see someone if I paint you, I like you, then
Alan Carroll:Angie, you're a wonderful person. I really I really enjoy
Alan Carroll:talking with you. If I paint it that I don't like you because
Alan Carroll:you're wearing a blue dress like my mother wore when I was three
Alan Carroll:years old, and she really beat the heck out of me. wears a blue
Alan Carroll:dress bow I hate right away. But I don't even know you that kind
Alan Carroll:of unconsciousness that. Why are you not connecting with NGO's? I
Alan Carroll:don't know, but I just don't use a bad person. I was just a
Alan Carroll:trigger. Yeah, it triggers it right. It triggers it So I
Alan Carroll:appreciate you taking the time to share with my audience some
Alan Carroll:of some of your journey. And when we want to connect with you
Alan Carroll:in the future, what are the best ways that my audience can
