Stop Trying to Be Spiritual

If you’ve ever felt too emotional, too intense, or like parts of you needed to be hidden in order to be accepted — this episode is for you. In this conversation, I’m joined by Lisa Brogi, licensed therapist and astrologer known as The Lilith Therapist, to explore how astrology can be used as a powerful tool for healing, self-understanding, and reclaiming personal power. We talk about: • Black Moon Lilith and why she represents the parts of you that were exiled or shamed • How your Moon, Chiron, Saturn, and rising sign reveal emotional needs and survival patterns • The connection between shadow work, therapy, and astrology • Why compassion and curiosity not fixing are what actually create healing This episode is about bringing the hidden parts of yourself back into wholeness. Without spiritual bypassing, and without shame.

Most people are trying to connect to their intuition in ways that keep them second-guessing themselves. They pull cards. Ask for signs. Worry they’re being deceived. And never feel fully grounded or clear. In this episode, I break down what spirit guides actually are, how they communicate, and why learning to connect from within not through fear, tools, or external authority...changes everything. I share: Why spirit guides are one of the most underutilized resources in spiritual awakening The difference between guides, angels, higher self, and loved ones in spirit How fear and unintegrated shadow shut down intuition Why your guides don’t command you and what it means if you think they are How to start trusting what you receive instead of questioning it This conversation is about sovereignty, discernment, and embodied spiritual connection not spiritual hierarchy or blind belief. If you’re ready to stop outsourcing your intuition and start trusting yourself, this episode is for you. Let's work 1:1 on your spiritual abilities: Mentorship Until next time: Stop trying to be spiritual.

If 2025 felt like an ending you didn’t ask for… you’re not imagining it. In this episode of Stop Trying to Be Spiritual, I’m joined again by Courtney Taylor (numerologist + psychic) to unpack what was actually happening in 2025’s collective Year 9 energy and what 2026’s collective Year 1 means for your identity, leadership, and the next 9 years of your life. We talk about numerology in a way that’s practical, grounded, and weirdly validating. Especially if you’ve been in that in-between space where you know everything changed… but you can’t fully see what’s next yet. Inside this conversation: Why 2025 felt heavy: endings, shedding, and “the universe will do it for you” energy What 2026 Year 1 is really about (and why you may not see instant results yet) How to calculate your personal year (and why it hits differently depending on your life path) Master numbers in personal years (11/22) and when they matter The personal day numbers system Courtney uses to plan her life + business (and stop the shame spiral) “Money days” (yes, that’s a real thing in this method) + why Day 8 is best Odd vs even number energy: momentum vs integration (and why some of us hate structure but need it) Compatibility + number dynamics (and why some number pairings feel… challenging) Timing for launches, big decisions, and even conceiving/creation cycles Courtney’s closing message for 2026 is simple: move before you’re ready. Not from chaos. From self-leadership.

If you’ve ever questioned your intuition, felt overwhelmed by what you’re sensing, or wondered if you’re doing something wrong spiritually. This episode is for you. In this episode, I break down: Mediumship and spirit communication after death Angels vs spirit guides and how they actually feel different The fear around “entity attachments” and why it’s often misunderstood Energy cleansing myths and what’s really happening beneath the surface This isn’t about denying spiritual experiences.

Listen to this podcast/masterclass if you can read energy clearly for other people, but when it comes to your own life, your intuition feels confusing or quiet. In this episode, I break down why this happens and why it has nothing to do with your gifts or ability. This isn’t an intuition problem. It’s a self-trust and worthiness pattern. We talk about how ego interferes with intuitive clarity, why yes/no questions keep you stuck, and how to ask better questions so your intuition can actually guide your decisions. If you’ve ever felt like your intuition works for everyone but you, this episode will bring clarity. Work with me HERE... Stop trying to be spiritual. ❤️

If you have experienced deep rejection, isolation, or pain, especially early in life, this episode is for you. Many healers and intuitives are forged through hardship, not because something went wrong, but because their soul required it. Rejection is not punishment. It is initiation. Feeling blocked or off path is often the very thing pushing you back toward your purpose. In this episode, I share: Why healers and intuitives often experience rejection and isolation How pain becomes the medicine that awakens you Why spiritual awakenings require identity death and ego dismantling The reason relationships and old versions of you fall away before alignment arrives How your hardship is redirecting you toward your soul’s path If you are in the middle of a spiritual awakening that feels confusing, heavy, or lonely, you are not broken. You are being forged. Your pain has meaning. And it is leading you home. My intuitive led courses are 25 percent off through the Solstice on 12/21 HERE One to one mentorship and healer pathways are also open HERE Stop trying to be spiritual.

If your intuition feels unclear or hard to trust, this episode shows you the real reason: the conversations you’re avoiding, the boundaries you’re crossing, and the patterns you’re still repeating in your daily life. I break down: Why your self-betrayal becomes intuitive confusion How the “good girl / martyr” identity blocks spirit connection Why retreats + readings spark awakening but don’t sustain it How to become the intuitive in your actual life, not just in meditation The exact moment your psychic abilities start to feel clear If your spiritual awakening isn’t “working yet,” it’s still working on you. This episode will help you shift from surface-level spirituality into embodied, trustworthy intuition. Courses + Mentorship Mentioned: • How to Actually Change Your Life (identity + embodiment work) • Awaken (psychic abilities + spirit guides) • 3–12 Month Intuitive Mentorship- 2 spots left If this episode hit you, follow, share, and leave a review — it truly helps the show grow.

I’m sharing a channeled collective oracle reading using the Angel Guide Oracle, and the cards that came through: Spiritual Growth, Clear Cancel and Release, Do the Work, Listen Deeply, and Take Charge and Action all tell a very clear story. Right now, many people are experiencing spiritual expansion and contraction at the same time. There is confusion, identity shedding, nervous system quivering, and the sense that something new is trying to be born through you. This episode walks you through what that actually means, why it feels so intense, what you’re being asked to release, and how to move forward when you don’t know what you’re doing yet. I talk about the real process of spiritual growth. The part no one prepares you for. The part where old beliefs fall apart, your sense of self shifts, your intuition whispers instead of shouts, and you’re asked to act before you feel ready. If you’ve been asking spirit for clarity, this will help you understand what’s unfolding and how to work with it rather than fight it. Use this episode as a meditation point, a grounding space, and a reminder that nothing about your awakening is random. You’re being asked to trust yourself, clear what is no longer yours, and take small, grounded action toward the identity your soul is trying to grow you into.

It is your ability to see energy, symbolism, memory, and intuitive truth through your inner vision. But when clairvoyance is ungrounded, it can feel confusing, overwhelming, and impossible to trust. In this episode I walk you through why your clairvoyance might feel chaotic, why you see random faces or intense imagery, and how much of what you perceive is shaped by your beliefs, fears, and unprocessed emotional energy. I share the real reason your psychic vision can shift so dramatically and why grounding and integration matter more than simply trying to “open your third eye.” You will learn how to create an energetic viewing screen so your clairvoyance becomes stable, clear, and functional instead of scattered and frightening. I explain how to differentiate symbolic images from actual intuitive information, how to work with your imagination in a grounded way, and why developing boundaries with spirit actually strengthens your gifts rather than limiting them. If you want to deepen your clairvoyance without fear and begin receiving messages that are aligned, compassionate, and clear, this episode will help you understand the inner work that makes your psychic vision trustworthy. For deeper development, you can explore my Spirit Connector sessions, the Awaken course, or apply for Mentorship. Thank you for being here and for sharing your time with me. Until next time, stop trying to be spiritual.

In this episode I break down what psychic abilities actually are and how to recognize the ones you already have. Most people are using their gifts every day without realizing it, so I walk you through the core abilities and how they show up in real life. We explore • clairvoyance and why it is not the most reliable sense • clairaudience and how to tell spirit from your own thoughts • clairsentience and the difference between intuitive feeling and empathic overwhelm • clairtangency, clairalience, and clairgustance and how they come through the body I explain how your beliefs, your nervous system, and your self trust impact the way you receive messages and why developing your abilities is less about being gifted and more about awareness and practice. If you want to go deeper into intuition, spirit guides, and energy work, My Awaken course is a self-paced, you got for life course, if you’re ready to explore your gifts, meet your spirit team, and build intuitive confidence.
