It is almost infuriating to hear people complain about and be angry with the youth of our nation—and the world—today. This has weighed on my heart for quite some time, and I believe it’s time to change the script. Before you get defensive and begin to respond that the youth are sorry, lazy, greedy, andContinueContinue reading “Labeled by Design: Why Today’s Youth Are Angry—and Why It’s Not Their Fault”

Returning to True Oneness: Rebuilding Spirituality from the Ground Up
In my last post, I talked about how spirituality as a whole is undergoing a massive transformation — a death and rebirth — as the old structures of religion collapse under their own weight. As that crumbling accelerates, many people are waking up to the need for something deeper, something real. But rebuilding true spiritualContinueContinue reading “Returning to True Oneness: Rebuilding Spirituality from the Ground Up”
The Purpose of Pain: Where God Meets Us
We come into this world fragile, unknowing, and dependent—and we leave it in much the same way. Along the way, life leaves its marks on us, not in spite of its challenges but because of them. We are shaped, scarred, and softened by the trials we face. Yet so many of us chase an illusion—aContinueContinue reading “The Purpose of Pain: Where God Meets Us”
Worthiness: The Quiet Truth We’re Missing
We hear it all the time: You’re worthy. Remember your worth. It’s everywhere—on social media, in self-help books, and even whispered in moments of prayer. But how many of us actually believe it? Even the Bible tells us we were worthy enough for God to send Jesus to die for our sins. Yet, growing upContinueContinue reading “Worthiness: The Quiet Truth We’re Missing”
Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)
I wrote this post a year ago, but the words necessary to appropriately convey it took a lot longer to set in. I used to struggle with anxiety, especially around the holidays. Not the run-of-the-mill holiday stress—this was the kind of anxiety that wrapped itself around my chest, whispering, “Someone’s going to die. Something terribleContinueContinue reading “Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)”
The Strength in Presence: Lessons of Duality, Forgiveness, and Growth
Letting Go and Learning the Hard Way Letting go has never been easy for me. Over the years, I’ve had to say goodbye to many people—some to death, and others who are still very much alive. As difficult as losing loved ones to death is, I’ve found that the hardest goodbyes are with those whoContinueContinue reading “The Strength in Presence: Lessons of Duality, Forgiveness, and Growth”
Misdiagnosing Growth: The Danger of Labeling Spiritual Awakening as Depression
Nearly twenty years ago, I experienced what I now understand to be a spiritual awakening—a dark night of the soul. But at the time, my attempt to embrace this deeply personal and transformative experience was met with fear, skepticism, and ultimately, suppression. In the eyes of the world, my withdrawal into solitude and reflection wasn’tContinueContinue reading “Misdiagnosing Growth: The Danger of Labeling Spiritual Awakening as Depression”
Embracing Your Authentic Self: Lessons from Pain, Growth, and Letting Go
Life is a series of choices, a balancing act between who we are and who the world tells us we should be. For many of us, the journey to authenticity begins with pain. It’s not the kind of pain that destroys us—though it may feel like it at times—but the kind that reshapes us, callingContinueContinue reading “Embracing Your Authentic Self: Lessons from Pain, Growth, and Letting Go”
Choosing Yourself: What I’ve Learned From My Journey of Letting Go and Letting God
Everything I am in this Now—everything I’ve overcome, everything I do or don’t do today—is because of God/Source. I live, breathe, and move forward with a deep sense of gratitude to the One who carried me through valleys I thought I’d never escape. God/Source truly led me out of the valley of the shadow ofContinueContinue reading “Choosing Yourself: What I’ve Learned From My Journey of Letting Go and Letting God”
The Mirror Within: Reconciling My Self in Love and Spiritual Growth
There’s a duality in me—two people, one who has lost themselves and another who never found themselves to begin with. These two selves lived within me, at times harmonizing, but often clashing, pulling me in opposite directions. They’ve shaped how I’ve experienced love, growth, and loss, both within myself and in the relationships I’ve attracted.ContinueContinue reading “The Mirror Within: Reconciling My Self in Love and Spiritual Growth”
