Exit The Matrix with Me Experiment: Guest: Your Subconscious Is Running Everything

What If The Real Reason You’re Stuck Isn’t Your Strategy — But The Emotional Pattern Running Your Life? This week on Exit The Matrix, Jane Slack-Smith sat down with Fay Chan — EFT practitioner, former financial counsellor, and emotional reprogramming expert helping people break the subconscious patterns keeping them trapped in cycles of stress, lack, burnout, and self-sabotage. Fay shares a truth most people never stop to question: financial struggles are rarely just about money. The real issue often sits underneath the surface — inside the emotional programming and survival patterns we’ve carried for years. Jane and Fay unpack how childhood conditioning shapes our beliefs around money, self-worth, trust, and success. From hearing “money doesn’t grow on trees” to constantly feeling unsafe, unsupported, or not good enough — these emotional imprints quietly drive the way we live, earn, spend, and show up in the world.

Exit The Matrix with Me Experiment: Guest: Reawakening Vision Beyond Sight

What If Your Intuition Isn’t Woo-Woo — But a Capacity You’ve Been Trained to Ignore? This week on Exit The Matrix, Jane sat down with Elina Celik — homeopath, educator, and facilitator of mind vision training — to explore a question that challenges everything we’ve been taught about perception, learning, and human potential. Elina works with children to help them access what she describes as subconscious vision — a way of receiving information beyond the usual five-sense, analytical mind. And while that might sound out there at first, the deeper conversation goes somewhere far more practical: what happens when we stop living entirely in the left brain? Read more

Exit The Matrix with Me Experiment: Guest: Peace is the New Power: Healing the High-Achiever’s Stress Pattern

What If Stress Isn’t the Problem — But the Pattern You’ve Normalised? This week on Exit The Matrix, Jane sat down with Julie Hutchinson — heart coherence expert, trauma-informed practitioner, and a leader in helping high-performers regulate their nervous system and reclaim internal peace. Julie brings a truth most people don’t want to face: stress isn’t just part of success — it’s the silent driver behind it. We unpack why 80% of doctor visits are linked to stress, how high-functioning leaders unknowingly run on survival mode, and why anxiety, burnout, and even chronic illness often trace back to one thing — a dysregulated nervous system.

Are Trauma, Cult Dynamics & AI the Real Tipping Point? This week on Exit The Matrix, Jane sat down with Dr Lisa Turner — engineer-turned-consciousness researcher, creator of Conscious Emotional Transformation (CET), and author of Our Conscious Tipping Point. Lisa shares the truth most people miss: trafficking doesn’t usually look like a van and a basement — it starts with grooming, coercion, and control. We unpack the eerie parallels between cults, “guru culture”, and abusive dynamics, and why people don’t “just leave” when coercive control has a grip on the mind. Read more

Is Your Ship Off Course—and Will You Notice Before It’s Too Late? What if the life you're living isn't the one your soul agreed to? What if the roles you’re playing, the job you’re in, the “success” you’re chasing—are part of a contract you didn’t consciously sign? This week I was prompted by a previous conversation to create a Soul Contract course... and then I realised I actually had an expert in my midst I could ask all about it - and even get a tick of approval for my beginners guide to soul contracts.
