Stop Trying to Be Spiritual

You want to trust your intuition. But every time you try to connect, you're already frustrated with yourself. "I'm not there yet. This should be easier by now." Here's the thing: your shadow, body, and inner child are showing up because you created them to keep you safe. And you're treating them like enemies instead of teachers. This episode is about why you keep bulldozing the parts of yourself t...

Episode 84, we talk about why everyone should be developing their psychic abilities and how to practically use them.  You don’t develop psychic abilities to become a psychic.

Most people feel confused because they don’t have the language for that. So, they look outside...

  When your mind is racing & you are feeling like "Spirit tell me what to do" The answer is going to come, by doing something different than pulling a tarot card or asking for another.

 You have a gift. You feel it moving through you. But the moment you think about letting someone see, something stops you. Not because the gift isn't real. Because being seen feels dangerous.

But somewhere between receiving and sharing, fear...

You don’t feel fear because you’re off track. You feel fear because something is about to change. Right before a new timeline becomes real.

In this episode, I break down: • Why fear increases at the edge of expansion •...

One of the biggest causes of human suffering is disconnection from your soul, your intuition, and the part of you where the Divine speaks through you. In this episode, I’m talking about what happens when we outsource our truth to institutions, relationships, other people’s opinions, and the version of ourselves we think we need to be to be loved. That severance creates shame, self-abandonment, exh...

Intuition doesn’t develop in a straight line, and it isn’t meant to feel the same every time.
