If Part 1 left you with more questions than answers… buckle up, buttercup!

Today, I’m sharing the rest of my journey—what happened when my spiritual mentoring experience took a turn, and how I found my way back to clarity, confidence, and trust in myself.

If you’ve ever second-guessed your intuition, felt pulled into someone else’s agenda, or struggled to discern the difference between influence and truth—this episode is for you.

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of the final retreat I attended with Betty—what was supposed to be a 10-day experience that turned into a 24-day unraveling.

From the unsettling dynamics of the retreat to the high control, paranoia, and mind games that followed, I share what it took to finally wake up, reclaim my power, and break the spell for good.

This isn’t just about one mentor or one retreat.

It’s about recognizing when a situation no longer serves you, sharpening your discernment, and reclaiming your own wisdom. Because while guidance can be valuable, your intuition always gets the final say.

Key Topics:
✨ The retreat experience that made me second-guess what I knew to be true.
✨ The fine line between deep spiritual work and losing connection with your own power.
✨ Influence vs. intuition—understanding the difference and why it matters.
✨ How I navigated the aftermath—and what healing has looked like since.

Reflection Questions:
💭 Where have you overridden your own gut instincts for the sake of belonging?
💭 When have you felt the pressure to doubt your own wisdom?
💭 How can you strengthen your discernment so that it never happens again?
