# Meet Lydia Smith

### CEO • Host of the *Oneness Junkie Podcast* • Wayshower • Conscious Connector

Hello, I'm Lydia Smith—a self-proclaimed **Oneness Junkie** with an insatiable curiosity about what it truly means to live a conscious, connected, and purpose-filled life.

My journey hasn't followed a conventional path.

Raised in a traditional home with conservative values, I lived abroad, graduated from Texas A&M University, and experienced the unimaginable loss of my sister to suicide—all before the age of twenty-two. That heartbreaking chapter became the catalyst for a lifelong search for meaning, healing, and a deeper understanding of who we truly are.

Rather than allowing life's challenges to define me, I chose to let them awaken me.

My spiritual journey began with *Anatomy of the Spirit* by Dr. Caroline Myss, a book that forever changed the way I viewed myself and the world. Soon after, I found a spiritual home at Unity of Houston, where I spent years exploring consciousness, healing, and personal transformation.

Over the past two decades, I've been inspired by many of today's leading voices in spirituality and human potential, including Dr. Caroline Myss, Iyanla Vanzant, Gary Zukav, Wayne Dyer, Marianne Williamson, Louise Hay, Gregg Braden, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Christiane Northrup, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Esther Hicks and Abraham, Oprah Winfrey, and many other remarkable teachers who helped expand my awareness and understanding of life.

Along the way, I discovered my own gifts as an empath, Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), intuitive energy reader, communicator, connector, and healer. My entrepreneurial and corporate career—combined with years of building communities and creating meaningful connections—has given me the skills to bring inspiring ideas and transformative conversations to a wider audience.

The *Oneness Junkie Podcast* was born from one simple belief:

**When we remember our connection to ourselves, each other, and something greater than ourselves, we change the world.**

Through heartfelt conversations with thought leaders, healers, scientists, authors, entrepreneurs, and everyday changemakers, my mission is to introduce you to ideas that expand your awareness, inspire your heart, and empower you to live with greater compassion, joy, and purpose.

I believe that healing is not just personal—it is collective.

Every act of kindness creates a ripple.
Every moment of self-awareness raises the collective consciousness.
Every person who chooses love over fear helps build a better world.

This podcast is more than a collection of interviews. It's an invitation to remember who you truly are and to explore what becomes possible when we live from the awareness that **we are all connected.**

If you're seeking inspiration, deeper meaning, personal growth, or simply a community of like-minded souls, you've found your tribe.

Thank you for being here.

Together, let's create a more compassionate world—one conversation, one connection, and one awakening at a time.

**Welcome to the journey.**
