In this episode of Changing the Channel, I welcome Kevin Tran, an inner work and Ascension guide and founder of the Academy of Transcendence. We discuss the concept of ascension, exploring its multi-layered meanings from planetary evolution to personal transformation. Kevin shares his insights on the evolution of consciousness, the importance of inner work, and practical ways to engage in self-reflection and healing. We also delve into the future of humanity, touching on themes such as unity consciousness, the role of cosmic energies, and the importance of heart-centered living. The episode is filled with deep wisdom and practical advice for anyone on their spiritual journey.

Kevin is the founder of Academy Of Transcendence, an education platform offering online courses, personalised 1–1 sessions and sacred group containers to help people catalyse their spiritual awakening, healing and Ascension process. As an Ascension Guide, Kevin teaches about the stages of spiritual evolution from 3D – 5D and beyond. His teachings focus on the journey from self-awareness to self-mastery through self-love, and how we can embody and express more of our soul frequency to experience more vibrancy and fulfilment in our lives. In 2023, Kevin received a message from his spirit team to document his teachings into a book. Academy Of Transcendence’s first publication, ‘How To Transcend’, is currently being written and will be available in hardcover format next year.
