  • Trusting Spirituality When You're Suspicious of Everything

    Episode 7: Trusting Spirituality when You’re Suspicious of Everything  

    Welcome to another episode of Spiritually Suspended with Caroline, where spirituality meets the realities of everyday life. In this episode, I discuss how Reiki, an energy healing modality, helped me to fall deeper into my spiritual practice, and learned to trust my own intuition. This story is about how I went from a hard skeptic to a believer who finally acknowledged the path I was being offered.   

    As a former professional psychic medium turned science and technology careerist, I’ve navigated the tension between the spiritual and the practical for years. From communities with cult-like mentalities to embracing motherhood, my journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s led me to a deeper understanding of how to integrate spirituality into the hustle and bustle of my everyday life.

    If you are someone who has struggled with being overly skeptical of spirituality or skeptical of your own intuition, this episode may be for you.

    Listen now and find out why being spiritually suspended doesn’t mean you’re off track—it’s just part of the journey!

  • Unrealistic Expectations in Life and Spiriuality

    Episode 3: Unrealistic Standards & the Reality of Spiritual Living


    Welcome to another episode of Spiritually Suspended with Caroline, where spirituality meets the realities of everyday life. In this candid episode, we explore the pressure of living up to unrealistic standards, especially in our spiritual practices, and the toll it can take on our mental health.

    Lately, the vibes have felt "off," and I’ve found myself in a dark place—grappling with depression, frustration, and a sense of emotional disconnect. We’ve all been there, right? The expectation to always be in flow, spiritually aligned, or at peace can feel overwhelming. In this episode, I dive into my personal experience with a "functional freeze" and how I learned that sometimes the most spiritually aligned thing you can do is tap out and allow yourself the space to rest.

    We’ll explore:

    • The struggle of trying to live up to impossible standards in both spiritual and personal life
    • How embracing imperfection can lead to deeper alignment and peace
    • Why spiritual living isn’t about perfect meditations, flawless rituals, or constant productivity—it’s about being present and intentional with your time
    • The importance of real self-care and why taking a step back can often be the most aligned thing you can do for your mental and emotional well-being
    • As a former professional psychic medium turned science and technology careerist, I’ve navigated the tension between the spiritual and the practical for years. From almost joining spiritual cults to embracing motherhood, my journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s led me to a deeper understanding of how to integrate spirituality into the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

      If you’ve ever felt the weight of unrealistically high expectations, or if you’ve struggled to find peace in the midst of it all, this episode is for you.
