In this honest and tongue in cheek episode of Aligned Alchemy, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the most ironic things happening in the spiritual world and that is judgment.

From makeup to manicures to meditation styles, people are still being told what’s “spiritual enough” and what isn’t.

And it’s time we talk about it.

Because here’s the truth.

You do not need to shrink your light, mute your joy, or edit your expression to fit someone else’s version of spirituality.

Inside this episode, I share:
• The real story behind a comment that sparked this conversation
• Why spiritual judgment hits differently (and why it’s so ironic)
• How to release the fear of what others think and live unapologetically
• The deeper spiritual meaning behind my nail art and why it matters
• How to stop letting other people’s opinions dilute your magic

If you’ve ever felt “too much” or “not enough” on your spiritual path, this one’s for you.

It’s funny, freeing, and full of truth bombs that will remind you to live fully.

Exactly as you are.
