Are you feeling stuck, lost, or uncertain about your life’s direction? Do you ever wonder if there’s a deeper purpose to your journey—something uniquely yours, waiting to be discovered? If you’re searching for meaning, clarity, or a sense of belonging in this world, you’re not alone. Many of us reach a point where we crave answers about our life’s path, our challenges, and our true potential. That’s where a Soul Plan Consultation can be a game-changer, offering profound insights and a personalized roadmap to help you navigate life with greater confidence and ease and a lot more fun!
What Is a Soul Plan Consultation?
A Soul Plan Consultation is a deeply insightful and healing experience that deciphers the unique vibration of your birth name—the name written on your birth certificate—to reveal your soul’s blueprint. Rooted in ancient wisdom and the system of Hebrew gematria, this method analyzes the sound and energetic resonance of your name to uncover your life’s purpose, natural talents, core challenges, and ultimate soul destiny.
Unlike generic personality tests or broad horoscopes, your Soul Plan is uniquely yours. It’s a spiritual map that illuminates your strengths, the lessons your soul came here to learn, and the gifts you’re meant to share with the world. What’s also unique about the Soul Plan is the foundation of it doesn’t change.
What does change is your viewpoints and understandings of it, so it’s highly encouraged to revisit your Soul Plan at least once a year (or especially after/before major life changes). You’ll be amazed at what you discover each time you revisit it that you didn’t notice before. As you grow and change, your Soul Plan reveals more and more of the wisdom contained within.
Why Does Understanding Your Soul Plan Matter?
I like to think of a Soul Plan as your spiritual curriculum for this lifetime—a kind of cosmic syllabus, tailored just for you. The idea isn’t new; many spiritual traditions teach that our souls choose certain experiences, lessons, and even challenges before we’re born, all to help us grow and evolve.
Here’s the fascinating part: your Soul Plan is encoded in the name exactly as written on your original birth certificate (even if it was ‘misspelled’ or changed after). There are no mistakes. The name written on your original birth certificate is your soul’s personalized, unique blueprint and the foundation for any other names you take on during your lifetime (which can be explored with a Multi-Name Soul Plan Consultation).
Using a system rooted in ancient wisdom and the energetic resonance of language, we can actually “decode” this blueprint. The process isn’t about fortune-telling; it’s about uncovering the deeper patterns, gifts, and lessons that shape your journey.
Why Do Our Challenges Repeat? (Hint: They’re Not Punishments)
If you’ve ever felt like life keeps handing you the same test, you’re not alone. One of the most powerful insights from Soul Plan work is understanding that our challenges are not punishments—they’re invitations. Each recurring struggle is a nudge from your soul, inviting you to step into your power, develop new talents, look at your struggles/challenges from a different perspective, or heal old wounds.
For example, I once worked with a client who felt “stuck” in a cycle of difficult relationships. Through her Soul Plan, we discovered that her soul had chosen these experiences to help her learn self-worth and healthy boundaries. Once she saw her challenges as opportunities—not failures—she was able to shift her approach and attract more supportive connections into her life.

The Benefits of a Soul Plan Consultation
If you’re struggling to understand your life direction or searching for your purpose, a Soul Plan reading can offer the clarity and empowerment you need. Here’s why so many people find this process life-changing:
Clarity on Life Purpose: Discover what your soul is truly here to achieve, bringing a renewed sense of meaning and direction to your journey.
Transform Challenges Into Talents: Learn how to view your life’s struggles as opportunities for growth, and receive guidance on turning obstacles into strengths.
Unlock Hidden Talents: Reveal both your worldly and spiritual gifts—some of which may be latent or unrecognized—and learn how to use them to reach your goals.
Break Free From Limiting Patterns: Gain awareness of subconscious blocks and repetitive patterns, empowering you to release what no longer serves you and step into your full potential.
Personalized, Actionable Guidance: Receive practical advice and affirmations, if applicable, tailored to your unique energetic signature, helping you make empowered decisions and move forward with confidence.
Deep Healing and Alignment: Experience a healing undercurrent throughout your reading, helping to clear energetic blockages and realign you with your soul’s highest path.
What You’ll Discover in a Soul Plan Consultation
Curious what actually happens in a Soul Plan session? Here’s what I love about this work: it’s practical, insightful, and deeply personal. Using your birth name, we explore seven key aspects of your Soul Plan:
Worldly Challenges: The life lessons and patterns that keep showing up, asking for your attention.
Worldly Talents: Your natural gifts—some you might already know, others waiting to be discovered.
Worldly Goals: The aspirations your soul mapped out for your material life.
Spiritual Challenges: The deeper, often hidden, hurdles that shape your spiritual growth.
Spiritual Talents: Gifts that help you navigate your inner world and connect with your purpose.
Spiritual Goals: The soul-level intentions guiding your evolution.
Soul Destiny: The essence of what your soul came here to embody.
It’s like holding a mirror up to your soul, seeing yourself with fresh eyes, and realizing you’re more equipped than you thought.
What’s Included in Your Personalized Soul Plan?
Before your emailed session, your soul's plan is intuitively analyzed using your full birth name (as it appears on your birth certificate). This forms the foundation of your Soul Plan chart. During the pre-recorded consultation, I’ll explore your:
Worldly and Spiritual Challenges: The life lessons and obstacles your soul chose for growth.
Worldly and Spiritual Talents: Your innate gifts and strengths, both manifest and possibly latent.
Worldly and Spiritual Goals: The aspirations your soul mapped out for you, guiding your journey.
Discovering Repeating Patterns & Themes: Our soul often chooses one to three overarching patterns/themes that manifest in a variety of ways in order to have a full soul experience of that pattern/theme. The SP session will clearly illuminate these patterns and themes for you.
Soul Destiny: The essence of your soul’s purpose and the highest potential you’re here to embody.
You’ll receive:
A recording of your session (so you can revisit the insights anytime–which you are highly encouraged to do).
A visual representation of your Soul Plan to download and keep!
Healing affirmations, when applicable, and practical strategies to help you overcome challenges and activate your talents all throughout the session.
An opportunity to email any questions or feedback after you have had an opportunity to listen to your recorded session.
How a Soul Plan Consultation Can Change Your Life
Before sharing my favorite tips, let’s talk about why this process is so powerful. Many clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges or unsure of their next steps. After their Soul Plan Consultation, they often describe feeling lighter, more focused, and deeply validated in their experiences. Here’s how you can benefit:
5 Ways a Soul Plan Consultation Can Empower You
Sometimes, we just need a little nudge—or a big “aha!”—to get back on track. Here are five ways a Soul Plan can help you move forward with more ease and grace:
Gain Self-Awareness: Understand the deeper meaning behind your recurring challenges and patterns, so you can approach them with compassion and wisdom.
Activate Your Gifts: Learn how to harness your unique talents and use them to overcome obstacles and achieve your dreams.
Set Aligned Goals: With clarity on your soul’s purpose, you can set intentions and goals that truly resonate with your heart.
Accelerate Personal Understanding & Healing: Seeing your “challenges” and “talents” through the perspective of an independent observer often triggers a powerful experience of energetic clearing and healing that helps you release old wounds and step into a new chapter.

Real-Life Impact: Client Stories
One client shared, “I was quite blown away!! I was able to gain both clarity and confirmation around many aspects of my life. If you’re looking for a little ‘roadmap’ to guide you, I highly recommend it”.
Another described their consultation as “a real turning point,” helping them see their life from a deeper perspective and finally understand the meaning behind their experiences.
Finding Meaning and Direction When Life Feels Uncertain
So if you’ve ever caught yourself wondering, “Is this really it?” or “Why do I keep facing the same challenges over and over?” then perhaps a Soul Plan consultation is exactly what you didn’t know you were looking for! And if you’re anything like me—or many of the people I’ve worked with—you’ve probably felt the weight of uncertainty or the ache of wanting your life to mean something more.
The search for purpose can feel lonely, especially when you’re stuck in a cycle of self-doubt or confusion. But what if your struggles aren’t random? What if they’re actually part of a deeper design, a Soul Plan, uniquely yours and written into the very vibration of your name?
The Soul Plan might just be the missing piece if you’re searching for clarity and direction.
Turning Challenges Into Talents: The Real Magic ✨
Here’s the part that excites me most about providing people with Soul Plan consultations: when you start to see your challenges as stepping stones, not stumbling blocks, everything shifts.
Your Soul Plan doesn’t just point out where you struggle—it shows you how those very struggles contain the seeds of your greatest strengths.
That recurring job frustration? It might be pointing you toward a talent for leadership or communication.
The feeling of “not fitting in”? Maybe it’s a sign you’re here to walk a unique path, inspiring others along the way.
The heartbreaks and losses? They could be teaching you compassion, resilience, or the courage to love again.
I’ve seen clients walk away from their sessions with a sense of relief and empowerment, finally understanding the “why” behind their story—and how to write the next chapter with more ease and grace.
Tips for Embracing Your Soul Plan
Let’s get practical. If you’re ready to start cooperating with your Soul Plan (instead of perhaps fighting against it), here are a few steps I recommend:
Reflect on Recurring Patterns: Notice which challenges keep showing up. What might your soul be asking you to learn?
Celebrate Your Talents: Make a list of your strengths—especially the ones you’ve developed through adversity.
Set Soul-Aligned Goals: Ask yourself, “What feels meaningful to me?” or “What feels exciting (& even scary–in a good way)?” Let your answers guide your next steps.
Seek Support: Sometimes we need an outside perspective to see our blind spots. A Soul Plan consultation, therapy, life coach, or a trusted mentor can help.
Practice Self-Compassion: Remember, you’re not failing—you’re learning. Every challenge is a chance to grow. Every challenge is an opportunity to realize more of what you do and do not want in your life.
More Real Voices, Real Stories
A client wrote, “I love the soul plans because they are so much simpler than astrological charts, and they highlight the important aspects. I have a unique surname situation, and it became very apparent how on point these soul plan readings are - I was quite blown away!! I was able to gain both clarity and confirmation around many aspects of my life. Kelley adds her unique intuitive insights to the reading which add even more magic! If you're looking for a little "roadmap" to guide you in this life, I highly recommend getting Kelley to read your soul plan.”
A parent of adolescents shared, “Kelley did soul plan readings for both my daughters. From a parental perspective, these not only affirmed some things that I knew, but highlighted the challenges that my kids have chosen, and this shifted how I interact with my kids in a very positive way. I also understand more about why they do things the way they do them, and that has allowed me to give them a bit more room to ‘be themselves’. This has resulted in a lot more harmony within our relationship.
What was really cool about these is the way Kelley ‘delivered’ them to meet my teen girls at their level. She provided practical ways for them to meet their challenges, and gave examples that were easy to understand and implement. These readings provide much insight and guidance of how a parent can both support their kids during challenges and yet allow them the freedom to blossom into becoming their own individual beings. I wish I had known about these when my girls were younger as I would've had this insight before their teen years!!”
