Episode notes

In this compelling episode, transformational teacher and author Rena Harvey joins us to explore why pain reveals the truth. We delve into self-mastery, soul contracts, childhood wounding, frequency, and the courageous work of reclaiming personal power. Drawing from her own lived experience, Rena shares how pain becomes initiation, how truth emerges through shock, and why mastery is not a moment—but a lifelong remembering. This conversation is raw, expansive, and intensely activating for anyone ready to rise beyond illusion and into embodied wisdom.
