The New Age Sage Podcast

Why do so many women sabotage relationships just when things are going great? In this episode, I’m breaking down the truth about self-sabotage. It’s not a mistake—it’s a subconscious test, a way for the feminine to uncover if a man can truly handle her in all her wildness and depth. Using Jungian psychology, I’ll explain why these patterns aren’t random. They’re a way of finding safety, of asking: Can he hold space for all of me, or will he fold when things get real? If you’ve ever felt misunderstood or chaotic in dating—or if you’re a man wondering why she suddenly “went crazy”—this episode will give you the clarity you didn’t know you needed. ——————— 00:00 - Intro 02:01 - Why women self-sabotage in early-stage relationships 04:30 - The archetype of the self in Jungian psychology 08:15 - Understanding the divine wisdom in self-sabotage 12:00 - Why women test their partners (unconsciously and consciously) 16:45 - Mythology and rom-coms: Lessons in the feminine journey 20:39 - How men can hold space for a woman’s full expression 25:12 - The shadow feminine vs. the healed feminine 30:15 - Practical tips for conscious communication in dating 36:00 - For men: How to handle chaos without losing your center 42:05 - Building trust and emotional safety in relationships 48:00 - Why self-sabotage is ultimately about self-trust ——————— Please like, comment, and subscribe if this episode resonates with you.

Welcome to a new solo episode of The New Age Sage Podcast. Today, I’m diving into a deeply personal journey from atheism to New Age spirituality and finally to Christ Consciousness. In this episode, I’m reflecting on how atheism shaped my early life, the pitfalls of New Age practices, and why I found myself surrendering to Christ consciousness as the ultimate path forward.

But here’s the twist—through all of that, I found that the only true path to freedom was surrendering to Christ’s archetype: embracing reality, accepting suffering as divine, and allowing it to lead us toward our highest good.
