Stop Trying to Be Spiritual

If I wasn't afraid to hurt your feelings, I would tell you that: your psychic abilities/ intuition and how you feel about your life is directly connected to your spiritual practice & the inner work you are doing or not doing.  In this episode, I’m sharing what actually creates powerful intuition and deep spiritual connection and it’s not more card pulls or waiting for a sign. It’s consistency. It’s self-honesty. It’s healing. I talk about my own journey of navigating fear, letting go of performing spirituality, and how everything changed when I finally committed to being with myself through meditation, shadow work, and real embodiment. If you’re ready to stop trying to look spiritual and actually start living it this conversation is for you. Here’s what we dive into: Why psychic gifts aren’t meant for performance — they’re here to help you heal How fear and avoidance keep you disconnected from your truth Why consistency in your spiritual practice matters more than chasing signs What I learned about manifestation (that no one talks about) How to reconnect with your intuition and finally feel clear Let this be your reminder: you were never meant to seek outside yourself. You’ve always had access you just have to show up for it. Work 1:1 with me here: www.lailataylor.com 

Clairvoyance isn’t just “seeing spirits” or having wild visions. It’s subtle. It’s intuitive. And it’s probably already happening for you; you're just not calling it that yet. In this episode, I’m breaking down the truth about clairvoyance: what it really is (and isn’t), how to know if you're already using it, and the sneaky ways language and spiritual dogma can block you from trusting your gifts. I share my own awakening journey, the doubts I had, and how I began to fully reclaim my psychic vision. Whether you're deep in your spiritual work or just starting to tune in, this is your reminder that your intuition is real and it’s time to trust it.

In this episode, I’m sharing a powerful session I had with a student who connected with her ancestors for the first time—and was completely overwhelmed by the love that came through. But here’s the thing… her lived experience growing up was the opposite. There was pain, gossip, disconnection. So how do you integrate that kind of spiritual love when your body still remembers the old story? This conversation goes deep into what happens when your awakening gives you a truth your nervous system isn’t used to holding. When you know you’re loved and guided—but you still feel tethered to old pain. If you’ve ever felt the gap between what spirit shows you and what life still feels like… this episode is for you.

In this episode of Stop Trying to Be Spiritual, I’m breaking down why your voice—not your third eye, not your rituals, not your perfect morning routine—is the most potent spiritual tool you have. If you’ve ever felt like you say you want to trust your intuition... ...but deep down you’re still second-guessing yourself, ...still swallowing your truth because you’re afraid of how others will respond, ...still trying to "protect your peace" by avoiding hard conversations— This episode is for you. I’ll share: Why so many intuitive, sensitive, empathic women feel blocked in their psychic abilities How your inability to speak your truth is creating fragmentation and inner chaos The difference between speaking from the wound and speaking from the heart Why comfort isn’t what you actually want (and what your soul really desires instead) How to collapse old patterns by using your voice as an alchemizer This is the conversation the spiritual world avoids—and it's the one that will change your life. If you’re ready to trust your gifts, anchor into your truth, and finally feel like you can stand strong in all parts of you... This is where it starts. With your voice. With your truth.

This week on Stop Trying to Be Spiritual, I’m pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to build a spiritually-aligned business—especially when your gifts feel big, your vision feels overwhelming, and your human self is still catching up. We’re talking about the identity shifts that no one prepares you for, how to stay present when your mission feels massive, and why entrepreneurship is one of the most powerful healing paths you can walk. If you’ve ever felt stuck, unsure, or like your purpose might swallow you whole—this episode is your anchor. I share how to build confidence in your gifts without waiting until you feel "ready," how to weave your spiritual self into your everyday life, and why mentorship isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. Because your calling is real. And it’s not too big for you. You’re just becoming the version of you who can hold it. ✨ Ready to go deeper and walk this path with support?

 This week on Stop Trying to Be Spiritual, we’re diving into the beautiful messiness of spiritual growth, self-discovery, and psychic development. Aka—the real stuff no one tells you when you first wake up. I’m talking about the fear that you might be “going crazy,” the inner battles with your beliefs, and how self-doubt loves to sneak in just when your intuition starts speaking up. If you’ve ever felt like you’re unraveling and waking up at the same time—this one’s for you. I get real about what it actually takes to access your psychic gifts (spoiler: healing is non-negotiable), how to trust your intuition when your inner voice is fogged by fear, and why mentorship can be the lighthouse you didn’t know you needed. You’ll also hear me talk about shadow work, belief systems, and how I’ve come to understand psychic abilities—not as something outside of us, but as something we return to when we integrate all the messy, beautiful parts of who we are. It’s a conversation that’ll remind you: you’re not broken, you’re becoming whole. And if this episode lights something up inside of you—if you're feeling the call for deeper support, guidance, and soul-anchored clarity—my 1:1 mentorship is where the real magic happens. We go deep, get real, and move you into alignment with the YOU that’s been waiting all along. More info HERE.    

In this week's podcast you are going to hear an actual client mentorship call that hits home amongst all spiritual seekers. That is the imposter syndrome, 2nd spiritual awakening, dark night of the soul, and the questioning of everything in life. Sounds dreamy, right? This client has such a beautiful energy and graciously allowed this recording to be shared, because sometimes you just need to hear that you aren't alone. I am always sharing my experiences and being real with you guys, because fake all love and light spiritual teachings hasn't ever helped anyone really. So yes, I share my own existential crisis, my imposter syndrome and how I moved through my own self-limiting beliefs to end up where I am now. Which is not surviving but thriving as a spiritual entrepreneur who's always looking for new ways to love and embrace me. That's what I encourage for you to. This whole spiritual awakening life can be a trip. Might as well do it together.  If you like what I share here & online you will love my 1:1 mentorship.

In this podcast episode, I talk about the need for embodying and speaking our truth on the spiritual journey. I bring up some recent client experiences that help give context to people who have been doing the 'work' but yet don't see that shift yet in their reality and explore what's really going on there We discuss how the Universe is always responding to what we believe about ourselves and sending us more of what we agree to. That to truly shift your experience of reality, you must lean into your discomfort with speaking your truth and to do it rooted in love and compassion.
