An Inspired Chat with Lacey Hellenbrand & Marley Hellenbrand of Online/Virtual

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Lacey Hellenbrand & Marley Hellenbrand. Check out our conversation below.

Lacey & Marley, really appreciate you sharing your stories and insights with us. The world would have so much more understanding and empathy if we all were a bit more open about our stories and how they have helped shaped our journey and worldview. Let’s jump in with a fun one: What are you being called to do now, that you may have been afraid of before?
Right now, our spiritual work is focused on speaking our truth by sharing collective channeled messages. At first, this was scary for us. We knew the channeled messages would be polarizing and possibly make people uncomfortable. We knew not everyone would agree or like it. We also knew people would assign meaning and emotions to these messages rather than staying objective.

Ultimately, we realized it wasn’t doing any good keeping our channeled messages about the collective and Earth’s ascension to ourselves. It was only holding us and others back from moving forward and understanding our work. We decided to create Starseed Disclosure Discussions as a sacred space for like-minded people to gather and receive these channeled messages. This space has become a freeing and powerful environment for us to serve the collective.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
We’re identical twins, who also happen to be Starseed Lightworkers and Psychic Mediums. Through our business, Twin Essence, we serve as collective guides for women looking to uncover their cosmic origins and ascend. We transmit messages and guidance to connect women to their multidimensionality and empower them to align with their most authentic self. Our spiritual work leads to inner power, truth, and living an aligned life.

Collectively, we use our Starseed connections to spread light and healing from dimensions beyond Earth. We’re here to activate humanity’s remembrance and create a collective pathway for ascension.

Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
As young adults, our first international trip was to Scotland. We joined a paranormal group trip that toured around Scotland, focused on ancient, haunted locations. This was actually a significant trip for us early in our spiritual development journeys. Exploring Scottish cities and sites without the responsibilities of time and work was incredibly expansive for us. We arrived in Scotland as authentic versions of ourselves without wearing any titles or labels from the outside world. We weren’t defined by our jobs or education or where we lived. We were blossoming psychic mediums, who had no idea the possibilities the Universe had in store for us.

This trip exposed us to so many different people and spiritual experiences. It gave us a glimpse into what our futures could look like if we continued down the spiritual path. It led to a deeper understanding of our spiritual gifts and what we could do for others.

As we’ve walked this path, it developed into one of Starseed and ascension work. Scotland opened our minds to the endless possibilities the Universe holds for us all. The farther we walk down this path, the more our view of the world widens.

What fear has held you back the most in your life?
For a long time, we were held back by the fear of what others think. This led to playing it small and staying safe. It created a comfort zone that was ultimately holding us back. It also led to people pleasing tendencies as we would do the work we felt others would accept rather than what we wanted to do.

As we broke down the fear and belief systems, we realized it wasn’t really making us happy to continue to live in the comfort zone of others. It only led to our own unhappiness. We also realized part of our Starseed mission is to serve as collective ascension guides, which means having a higher level of visibility. It’s hard to develop visibility when you’re worried about what others think of you.

So we started taking risks by showing up authentically. At times, it can be unpolished and informal, but our stories and our authenticity is what resonates with our audience. We even launched a podcast, The Ascension Path with Twin Essence, to share our stories and experiences. It has led to living an aligned life that keeps us growing and evolving rather than safe for others’ comfort.

Next, maybe we can discuss some of your foundational philosophies and views? What are the biggest lies your industry tells itself?
The biggest misconception we see in the spiritual industry is the belief that there’s one way to walk the spiritual path. We see so many spiritual healers and leaders creating and presenting rules and guidelines as requirements to a spiritual path. They preach behaviors like healthy eating, no alcohol, kindness, daily meditation, rituals, and more. While these behaviors and practices can be beneficial, they aren’t required to be “spiritual” and ascend.

There is no “one size fits all” approach when it comes to spiritual work. This is true for ascension too. The path of ascension is one of evolution. This means that what has always worked, won’t continue to work for you as you change. As you raise your vibration and frequency for ascension, your practices evolve with you. If we kept doing the same practices we learned when we first awakened our spiritual gifts, we wouldn’t have grown and evolved into our Starseed missions today.

As collective ascension guides, we are creating a pathway for ascension on Earth. We all have different programming, beliefs, traumas, and experiences that shape who we are. That means different ascension practices are needed for everyone, and the collective must learn to accept these differences in practices. In our work, we guide clients on what ascension looks like for them.

Thank you so much for all of your openness so far. Maybe we can close with a future oriented question. What do you think people will most misunderstand about your legacy?
Some people appear so programmed by the 3rd dimensional reality on Earth that they misunderstand our mission and purpose. They may think there’s no life beyond what they see on Earth…yet they think of a passed loved one every so often, and it brings a smile to their face. They notice a gut feeling and act on it. They see shadows at night and wave it away as their eyesight. THIS is the impact of our work. They don’t need to believe in us or our work to be impacted by what we do. Their ascension path will unfold in divine timing for them. We trust in our mission and our ability to evolve the collective at all levels of dimensionality. We trust in the collective ascension process.

Our spiritual work is rooted in service to Earth’s ascension – for ourselves, for the individual, and for the collective. Our work is a soul remembrance that leaves a ripple in the collective, forging the path for ascension.
