"We Are Spiritual Beings Having a Spiritual Experience on the Physical End of the Energy Spectrum"
Episode 026 of Living in Response is a bit of a portal into my relationship with spirituality and my Self, something that’s been asking for life lately. Plus a sample into my Personal perspectives on social media spirituality and “fix-it” self-help type programs.
This raw, unedited, unfiltered, and unbounded podcast is the product of coming back into relationship with the energy that I am, which has enabled me to do it afraid, uncertain, uncharted, and without any real agenda other than, “don’t stop” and “be myself.”

Topics Covered in This Episode:Summarized (mostly) with AI
1️⃣ Why I Missed a Day for the First TimeFor the first time in 24 episodes, I didn’t record yesterday—because I was in the ER with intense, unexplained pain. I reflect on what happened, how it unfolded, and what thoughts it provoked in me. (I’m okay!)
2️⃣ Listening to My Body vs. Pushing ThroughI talk about choosing to do energy work before heading to the ER, and how I reached a point where I had to hand things over to modern medicine (which is still energy work, as I have learned from Cindy Dale’s book). I believe both energy healing and allopathic treatment can coexist—they're all energy medicine in different forms.
3️⃣ Energetic Expansion Can Trigger Physical SymptomsThe days leading up to the ER visit, I had experienced huge energetic openings—both at a visionary weekend and after joining a tantric meditation community. I explore the idea that clearing energy sometimes needs to move through the body and can feel intense. (I’m still seeing my PCP to check in, don’t worry!)
4️⃣ Discovering True Tantra (Not Just the Sex Stuff)I share how learning from a traditional Indian tantra lineage opened me to deeper divine feminine energy and embodiment work—far beyond the Westernized version of tantra I’d previously assumed.
5️⃣ Spiritual Authenticity in a World of Appropriation & CapitalismI unpack my complex relationship with mainstream spirituality—especially the appropriation, bypassing, and spiritual capitalism I’ve witnessed—and why I’m learning to trust my own discernment.
6️⃣ Holding Paradox & Respecting Other ViewsI reflect on how I’ve always seen many sides of things—and how I hold space for different perspectives even when I don’t fully agree. I believe this nuance is essential on the spiritual path.
7️⃣ Our Disconnection from the SoulI share why I think the real crisis is not too much spirituality—it’s too little. We've forgotten that we are souls, and I draw on Viktor Frankl’s idea of the “noös” to explore this deeper layer of being.
8️⃣ Spirituality Is in the BodyInstead of seeking the cosmos, I’ve been turning inward—tracking sensations along my spine, feeling into my shushumna (central channel along my spine), and developing interoception. That’s where my soul speaks to me through my body.
9️⃣ How My Life Has Changed Through FeelingBecoming more aware of how things feel in my body has naturally shifted my behavior—from how I eat to how I treat the earth. It’s not about forcing—it’s about feeling.
🔟 Why I’m Reconsidering Self-Help ProgramsAfter $30K+ in programs, I’m seeing the same pattern: some people transform, and some stay stuck. I wonder if constantly clearing beliefs isn’t always the answer—maybe what’s needed is a deeper return to self.
1️⃣1️⃣ The Power of Slow Somatic PracticeMy body-based practice of slowly tracking sensations along my spine (especially when I can’t feel) has become foundational. This isn’t just a technique—it’s my lifeline to the present moment and my inner truth.
1️⃣2️⃣ Creativity Through Core AuthenticityI talk about how living from my core energy—not just my thoughts—fuels my creativity and helps me say what I actually mean, especially around spirituality.
1️⃣3️⃣ Feeling It Is the Way Through ItInstead of trying to fix or rewire everything, I’m choosing to feel what’s there, follow it, and let it move. It’s not bypass—it’s presence.
