In this episode, I talk about a tension I’ve carried for years: I love the community that church can create, but I’ve also seen how faith can turn into a system—and how easy it is to go through the motions without being truly transformed.

I share why more people today say they’re spiritual but not religious, what organized religion still does well, and why trust in institutions has been challenged. Then I briefly touch on numerology—not as a religion, but as a self-awareness tool that’s helped me recognize patterns, blind spots, and parts of myself I’ve avoided.

I wrap it up with what this looks like in real life: weekly relationship check-ins, battling sugar cravings, and choosing growth over ego.

If you’ve ever wrestled with faith, identity, or what it actually means to live what you believe—this one’s for you.

This weeks episode we talk about the initial teachings of The Surrender Experiment by Michael A. Singer. We explore the challenges of being bad at meditation.

This episode started with a health wake-up call and turned into something deeper. I talk about focusing on the “clean” problem while ignoring the uncomfortable one, how that pattern shows up in my health and my boundaries, and why learning to show up for myself has been harder than showing up for everyone else.
