Dear Community,
This episode is a little different—in the best way.
Host, Yasmeen Turayhi, hands the mic to her friend Bella Shing for an intimate, real conversation about Yasmeen’s new book, A Glitch in the Matrix: 10 Energy Codes to Become the Main Character of Your Life —a practical guide to waking up from unconscious patterning and stepping into conscious authorship.
Grounded in 15+ years on the personal development path and 250+ interviews on Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen distills what she’s learned into 10 core Energy Codes designed to help you shift your identity, reclaim your energy, and create from coherence rather than conditioning.
Together, Yasmeen and Bella explore what a “glitch” actually is: the moment you see the program running your life—and realize you don’t have to keep living it. They talk about the “Matrix” as a cultural agreement built on conditional worth and performance, how people unknowingly give their power away every day, and why identity is the real engine behind long-term change. The conversation also moves into energy mastery—presence, embodiment, intuition, nervous system capacity—and why levity, play, and humor are not distractions from the sacred, but often the doorway into it.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re living on autopilot, this episode is a transmission back to your agency.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
1. What a “glitch in the matrix” really is—and how to recognize it in your own life
2. How the “Matrix” functions as a dominant cultural program built on conditional worth
3. The most common ways we give our power away (and how to call it back)
4. Why identity is the reason most people don’t change—and how to use identity intentionally
5. How intuition differs from fear (and what “nonlinear knowing” feels like)
6. Why embodiment and nervous system capacity are essential for real transformation
7. How karma, resonance, and energetic “accounting” shape what comes back to you
8. The role of humor and play in spiritual maturity—sacred doesn’t have to mean serious
About the book: A Glitch in the Matrix is Yasmeen’s love letter to the world—an accessible, grounded framework for energy mastery, presence, and conscious creation, written for anyone ready to stop sleepwalking through life and start living from inner authority.
