In this solo episode, I reflect on a question that’s been on my heart: what does it mean to be human? I share some of the very human experiences I’ve been navigating—shadow work, ancestral healing, falling in love—and how they’ve brought me deeper into my spiritual journey. I unpack the tension of balancing spiritual growth with everyday life and the ways I’ve learned to sit with discomfort without bypassing it. If you’re in a season of reckoning or re-grounding, I hope this episode meets you where you are.
