In this episode, I pull back the curtain on the “love and light” narrative that dominates much of the spiritual community. While positivity has its place, true healing isn’t always pretty, polished, or peaceful. I talk about the dangers of spiritual bypassing, the pressure to suppress your full range of emotions, and why embracing your raw, human experience is vital to your spiritual growth. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit the aesthetic or emotional mold of what it “means” to be spiritual, this episode is a reminder: you are not broken—you are a spirit having a beautifully messy human experience, and that is more than enough
