Celinne Da Costa & Jemie Sae Koo at AUREA: Clean the Vessel So the Soul Can Land

Brand-story coach Celinne Da Costa and Psychable founder Jemie Sae Koo on the AUREA stage: why healing stalls when the vessel — body, home, environment — still works against the soul, and how to reclaim it layer by layer.

Celinne Da Costa & Jemie Sae Koo at AUREA: Clean the Vessel So the Soul Can Land

Two women sat on the AUREA stage and had the conversation most wellness spaces avoid: what if your healing isn't finished because your vessel — the body, the home, the invisible environment around you — is still working against your soul?

Celinne Da Costa is a bestselling author and brand-story coach for visionary leaders, featured in Forbes and Entrepreneur. Jemie Sae Koo is the founder and CEO of Psychable, one of the leading communities in psychedelic-assisted healing. Together, their exchange became one of the most quietly radical sessions of AUREA III.

This is not your grandparents' world

The frame they set early holds the whole talk: "We're no longer living in the world that our parents and our grandparents grew up in." Modern life runs on invisible forces — chemical, digital, and economic — that quietly keep the body in a state of dis-ease. You can do the inner work faithfully and still feel off, because the vessel carrying your soul is under a load no previous generation carried.

The call is not fear. It is sovereignty — remembering who you are, and taking back authorship over what your body, attention, and energy are exposed to.

The abyss, and the two phone calls

The most human moment came as a story of collapse. A life of being the most extroverted person in every room — then a descent so complete that "my own mother didn't even know what I was going through." And then, in that abyss, two phone calls in one week from two deeply respected people, arriving out of the blue like a rope thrown into the dark.

It is the AUREA pattern again, told from another life: the pit is not the end of the story. It is where the real one begins — and the people who reach for you in it are part of the architecture.

Clean the vessel so the soul can land

The practical heart of the talk is a whole-ecosystem view of healing. Going "all in" on one modality — the medicine journey, the detox, the gym — while the rest of your environment stays toxic is like training daily and wondering why nothing changes. The work compounds only when the whole vessel is tended: what you eat, yes, but also what you cook it in, what you scroll, what you breathe, who you let near your energy.

One layer at a time, by resonance rather than force: "Does that feel in resonance for you? Great — then let's look at the next layer." Sovereignty of the body, built the way anything sacred is built. Deliberately.

The takeaway

Your soul cannot fully land in a vessel that is fighting for its life against its own environment. Healing is not one heroic intervention — it is the patient reclamation of everything you touch and everything that touches you.
