Did Jesus write these words himself—and why were they hidden for centuries? In this episode, Scott Wolter explores the discovery of encoded Yeshua scrolls and what they might reveal about history, identity, and truth.In this episode of the Always Better Than Yesterday Podcast, Ryan Hartley sits down with forensic geologist and researcher Scott Wolter to explore one of the most controversial discoveries of his career: a sealed jar containing encoded scrolls attributed to Yeshua. What emerges is not just an alternative historical theory, but a radically different framing of identity, spirituality, and truth. The scrolls describe Yeshua not simply as human or divine in the traditional sense, but as something more complex—pointing toward non-human lineage, advanced knowledge, and a teaching rooted in inner divinity rather than external authority. Scott shares how these documents were discovered, decoded, and interpreted, along with the role of the Knights Templar in preserving this knowledge across centuries. Together, Ryan and Scott explore the implications of these teachings—challenging institutional narratives, re-examining the balance between masculine and feminine, and questioning what may have been omitted from the story we’ve inherited. The conversation also moves into deeper territory: hidden knowledge, human origins, symbolic warnings of deception, and a specific date embedded within the scrolls—June 6, 2026. At its heart, this episode explores the tension between inherited belief and emerging evidence—and invites you to question what truth really means.📘 About the Yeshua Scrolls The Yeshua Scrolls refer to a set of encoded documents reportedly discovered within a sealed jar and linked to preservation efforts associated with the Knights Templar. They present an alternative account of Yeshua’s life and teachings, including references to non-human lineage, a relationship with Mary Magdalene, and a spiritual system rooted in balance between masculine and feminine principles. The material also includes symbolic warnings, encoded timelines, and philosophical frameworks suggesting a shift in human consciousness.Those with ears, let them hear.

In this episode of the Always Better Than Yesterday Podcast, Ryan Hartley sits down with author, facilitator and leadership guide Sydney Campos for a wide-ranging conversation on embodiment, healing, discernment, and the deeper meaning of ascension.Sydney shares the lived path behind her work: a childhood shaped by trauma, anxiety, disassociation and addiction, followed by a hard-won journey through sobriety, nervous system healing, spiritual remembrance, and a growing devotion to truth. Rather than presenting awakening as something lofty or abstract, she describes it as a return to the body, a surrender of survival strategies, and a willingness to feel what was once too painful to feel alone.Together, Ryan and Sydney explore anger, grief, reparenting, the God wound, the search for safety, and the courage it takes to stop performing and simply be. They also talk about discernment in modern spirituality, the risks of giving power away to gurus, the value of silence and nature, and why genuine transformation often looks less like escape and more like deeper embodiment.At its heart, this episode is about remembering that who you are being is more than enough. It is an invitation to regulate, reconnect, and live from a steadier inner knowing - one that can shape relationships, leadership, business, and the way we build a more coherent world.About "I’m Ascending, Now What?"Sydney’s book reframes ascension as an inward journey rather than an escape "up and out." It offers an embodied path for people who are waking up, healing, and learning how to live with more authenticity, sovereignty, and connection.The work explores nervous system repair, emotional release, reparenting, discernment, spiritual responsibility, and practical integration.Its aim is to help people move beyond performance, survival and spiritual cosplay so they can trust themselves, feel more deeply, and create from a grounded connection to Source.Those with ears, let them hear.Always love,RyanConnect with SydneyWebsite: https://sydneycampos.com/ Instagram: https://instagram.com/sydneycampos LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/sydneycampos YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Sydney-Campos Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/419qkS0EuUsMlbPJKXabIB Connect with Always Better Than YesterdayWebsite: https://abty.co.uk/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alwaysbetterthanyesterdayuk/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/abty/Men’s Group (Akira): https://abty.co.uk/akiraJoin our mailing list: https://abty.co.uk/contactSign up for coaching: https://abty.co.uk/coachingPlease email questions and reflections to:podcast@abty.co.uk
