In this episode I explore the uncomfortable but necessary work of becoming congruent with who you truly are—because the gap between your truth and your behavior is where anxiety, shame, and self-betrayal are born. I talk about the power of ritual in healing our personal and collective fractures, why we must rebuild community if we want to feel whole, and how honoring our own contradictions allows us to hold the contradictions of others. I dive into what happens to the body when we live out of alignment, why authenticity is the antidote to chronic stress, and how every misstep is an invitation to return to integrity. This episode is a call to stop abandoning yourself, reclaim coherence, and live a life that matches the truth you already feel in your bones.
