Wake Up with Susan
Spiritual awakening can be a beautiful but often confusing and lonely journey. I created this podcast because it is what I needed which is someone sharing their own experiences so I knew I wasn't alone.
My name is Susan Sutherland. I am a married, mom of 3, an intuitive healer and spiritual coach. Like many of you, I have been called to rise up and shine my light. I am constantly learning and growing and have dedicated myself to helping others remember their true divine nature and being an ambassador of love. I hope to share everything I can to help you feel connected, and supported, and to tune into your spiritual gifts.

Wake Up with Susan
Soul Codes and Garden Gates: Your Invitation to Remember
Have you ever felt the need to hold back your deepest spiritual truths? That's exactly what prompted the birth of The Keepers' Garden – a sacred space where spiritual wisdom can flow unfiltered and uninhibited. This episode is my peek inside the garden gates.
During an ayahuasca ceremony, I received a clear vision – not of another content platform or performance stage, but of a field, a gathering place where authentic connection and remembrance could flourish. Despite initial resistance, I understood this wasn't meant to be yet another hub for spiritual content consumption. Instead, it would be a sanctuary where truth doesn't need to be hidden, softened, or edited to fit algorithmic preferences or social expectations.
The reality is that many spiritual truths get suppressed on public platforms. Videos speaking to misunderstood realities often get buried by algorithms, regardless of their potential to unlock profound remembering in viewers. I realized I had become an unintentional gatekeeper, holding back transmissions because there wasn't an appropriate vessel to carry them. The Keepers' Garden emerged as the answer – not another place for creation, but our collective remembering.
If something within you resonates with this vision, if you feel that gentle tugging in your soul, this might be your season to root deeper. You already hold the blueprint within you. Your codes are ready to be remembered.
Join us in tending the soil of a new earth together.

Rise and shine everybody. It's time to wake up with Susan. Spiritual awakening can be a beautiful, messy and sometimes lonely journey, so let's do it together. I'm your host, susan Sutherland. I'm an intuitive healer and spiritual mentor. We are all called to rise up above our conditioning and limiting beliefs and shine our light on ourselves and others. So let's get to it.
Speaker 1:Hello, my beautiful family, I feel like the excitement that you used to have when you had show and tell day and you had the right thing. It wasn't like last minute grabbing something off the kitchen counter. It was like I have this precious gift that I'm really excited to share something off the kitchen counter. It was like I have this precious gift that I'm really excited to share. That's the energy I'm feeling today is I get to have a show and tell with something that has been quietly growing and I've been cultivating and birthing in my own space. And now I want to give you a sneak peek behind the garden gate at the private community, the Keeper's Garden, and kind of go into why, why, why I'm doing that and kind of what it's about. Okay, for those who have been with me for a while, you know that I don't create things lightly. I don't launch things because I need more work to do, because I don't. I create when spirit won't let me sleep and when I know that what's coming through isn't meant just for me. And this, this garden, started whispering to me in ceremony, during an ayahuasca ceremony. I was shown this space, a private community. That is a field, not a platform. It's a gathering, not a stage, and I was told I would build the private community and I didn't fully understand what that meant and, honestly, I resisted. I was sitting there and negotiating in ceremony with Ayahuasca going like I don't know if I can do that. I didn't want another hub for content consumption. I didn't want the pressure of putting out more polished videos or having more weekly deadlines. I didn't want to perform my own knowing, but what I did want the part that felt in alignment was a space for real remembering, real connection, a space where truth didn't need to be hidden or softened or edited, because the truth is.
Speaker 1:There's a lot. I can't say Partially, because I have three children and some of what comes through or what happens in my life involves them or my husband and I intentionally leave a lot out, a lot that is meaningful and purposeful and would be very relatable I don't talk about because I honor their lives within my public space and it's not like I'm Joe Rogan talking about them. But I still honor the fact that once I put a podcast out there, that's out there, that's public. And so there's a lot I don't share because I am self-censoring in a way that is respectful, not in a way that I feel like I'm silencing myself, but in a way that I am honoring their experience. But, honestly, there's a lot I cannot say on public platforms, not because I'm afraid, not because I'm being, not because I'm being respectful, but because the platforms themselves are designed to suppress certain frequencies.
Speaker 1:Many of my videos that speak to misunderstood truths get buried by the algorithm. It just is, and I haven't even, like, like, gotten past the tip of the iceberg of what wants to be shared. But those don't go out, and those videos, they're not content, they're transmissions. It is to unlock your own remembering, your own knowing, and so there's so much I've been holding so much more depth than what I've shared so far, because so far there hasn't been a space that's able to hold it. So when I was working through recently, like where am I not aligned with my highest path.
Speaker 1:One of the things that came through is that I am a gatekeeper. I'm a gatekeeper of the knowledge that I have received, but I'm a gatekeeper because I don't know how to get it out there. I haven't known how to share some of what has come through to me. What is the appropriate platform? Okay, for starters, there was like a perception problem, like if I share this, then perhaps some people will think I've gone off my rocker. I think I'm past that. I don't really care anymore. This is the truth as I know it in my bones to be true, and I feel comfortable with that. However, there is not a really good platform for that. So some things I've shared a little bit on TikTok, I'm very hesitant to share on Instagram because my Instagram following was created from friends and family originally and not from people who were necessarily aligned with what I was doing. So I have personal resistance about sharing a lot of things there that are beyond like just really encouraging, uplifting messages, but I'm talking about like truths. I've been more hesitant to share it there, but it came up for me that I am being a gatekeeper and that is one of the ways that I am not living in alignment with my soul calling.
Speaker 1:My soul calling is like, hey, you received this information and it's not yours to hoard, but following ayahuasca, when I was kind of going into deliberation about this, because there are so many people who have communities and I needed it to not mimic that. I needed it to feel in resonance with what I have to offer, and one of the best things about it is to have a private community. I have a space to share. I feel like I share authentically on the podcast, but I guess you know, be more like naked. I want to be naked in the garden, not wearing clothes on the podcast, but a little bit of nakedness, oh my gosh. You know what I mean, though, right, naked in the garden. I'm just saying bearing more of myself there, with all of my truth.
Speaker 1:Here is what's coming through, this is what is speaking to my heart and wishing to be shared, so that you can feel how it lands in your body, so it can activate what it needs to activate in you, so it can stir up conversations that some of us are meant to be having right now. And so, when I started the negotiation about this space, that was one of the selling points for me was to have a place where the videos don't need to be edited. It is like this is me, this is just who I am and this is the message that wants to come to you and that feels like less work and also so, so soul aligned with me. So that is why the keeper, the keeper's garden, exists. Please note that the apostrophe on the keeper's garden is after the S, because anyone that finds themselves there is also a keeper, a keeper of the remembrance, a keeper of the codes, a keeper of this divine light that we are meant to embody. You are here to hold a frequency, to not only spread seeds, but I'm talking about tend the soil of the new earth, and that is why it is not my keeper, I am not the keeper of the garden. Together, we keep Okay. So that's an important note for you to make mentally, as I'm saying this know where the apostrophe is, okay. So the keeper's garden is not a vault for content. It will be a living field of remembrance. It's not a place to scroll quickly through the lessons or to quickly consume. It is a place to awaken your soul codes.
Speaker 1:I have had to learn and accept and finally embrace that. Part of my role here is an activator, and I used to hesitate saying that because I don't want anybody to think that I believe that somehow I'm better or more special or more evolved. But now I've had some experiences where, after a session or after an experience, or even after a conversation Even after a conversation someone's gifts came online. There was someone we talked soul to soul and soon after all of her gifts came, she began remembering herself more fully and she now walks as an activator, activating others. And I realized it's not about me, it's about what moves through me when I speak from truth, when I am in my soul alignment that can activate others. And I believe many of you carry this as well. You are not here to consume truth, you are here to embody it. You're here to wake up others just by being fully. You, like you, hold the frequency to allow their remembering.
Speaker 1:One of my soul's missions is to remind people of their sovereignty, to help others come home to their own power, their own knowing their own divinity power, their own knowing their own divinity To be outside of the cage, flying and saying it's safe. It's safe to leave the bars of our old understanding. And this is not because I have the blueprint, this is because you do. I've just chosen to live close to mine and now I'm holding space for others who are ready to do the same. So I'm not going to be doing some big, huge push or a big launch for the garden. There's no big ads, there will be no countdowns, because I do trust that those who were meant to find it will feel it.
Speaker 1:Some of you who are listening now don't just hear the words in these episodes. You feel the message. You know when something is for you. So I wanted to name it, to offer it gently, to say if this is tugging at something inside of you, come, this might be your season to root deeper, to awaken what you've barely let yourself believe is possible. The garden is set to be sacred and ceremonial and funny, because we can't be serious all the time and there is nothing more sacred than joy and laughter and humor. So there you will have activations and healings, but you will also find lightheartedness. Okay, so let's take a little peek inside at the garden.
Speaker 1:In there there are three tiers, depending on where your heart feels called right now. The first is the well. It is for those drawn to the deep waters. The well is the community gathering spot After you have taken a long, lonely awakening journey, this is the spot to come together and to replenish and to nourish your soul. The next tier is the sanctuary. In the sanctuary there are deeper teachings for those who are ready to anchor. And the third tier is the temple, for those who long to be witnessed, to be mirrored, to be reflected in real time.
Speaker 1:In the temple there are altar hours, which are like office hours, where you join for live gatherings with what's on your heart, not just more content from me, but you bring your questions and your thoughts and what is stirring inside of you, because we long for a place for each other to be seen, not just one leader, to have more of the spotlight. This is an opportunity for you, without a private session, to come and to interact with what's on your heart. So each of those tiers offers something different, but they all carry the same seed Not more information, but more integration. And there's going to be content, there's going to be offerings, but it invites you to go deeper with it, not just like consume, consume, consume. All right.
Speaker 1:So thank you for allowing me this show and tell, but before I close, I want to say this my wholeness is not mine alone. It is braided with yours. I am, we are. The Keeper's Garden is not my creation, it's our remembering, and I will hold the field until you are ready to step in. Thank you for being here. Thank you for listening, not just with your ears but with your soul. May you remember the sound of your own voice and may you find the courage to follow it, and may you walk toward the garden of your own remembering, wherever it may live. I love you and I'll see you soon. Thanks for listening, I love you and I'll see rating on your favorite podcast app. Have a great week.
