Welcome back! As my birthday week rolls around, I find myself feeling less celebratory and more… salty. There’s a growing frustration I’ve been carrying about the health and wellness space, and today I’m finally letting it out.

Too many women are being misled by shiny branding and empty promises. Behind all the perfect aesthetics and “healing” talk, there’s a lot of manipulation going on, and it's time to name it.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the hidden side of the industry. We’ll talk about the rise of self-proclaimed “gurus” and spiritual influencers who sell a curated image of healing while profiting from confusion and vulnerability. It’s easy to get lost in the noise, especially for women who are genuinely trying to reconnect with themselves.

This episode is your reminder to stay sharp. We’ll unpack the difference between being judgmental and simply seeing things clearly. I’ll also dive into the phrase: “Be wise as serpents and innocent as doves,” and what it really means for navigating this space with clarity.

Tune in to learn how to spot the fakes, trust your intuition, and take your power back from anyone selling you smoke and mirrors. It’s time to ask for more than just good vibes. So let’s demand what’s real, true, and actually healing.
