2. No More Crucifixes Above the Doors

In this episode, Monet reflects on growing up in the open-hearted spiritual landscape of Encinitas, the quiet grief of returning to a hometown that has changed, and the deeper meaning of sanctuary. She shares, for the first time, part of her story of living inside a marriage shaped by religious control, lack of bodily autonomy, and the slow erosion of her own inner knowing. Through memories of contrasting spaces of worship, hidden tarot cards, crucifixes above every door, and the moment she began to reclaim her own home, Monet explores the difference between the sacred and a control structure. This is an episode about intuition, embodiment, spiritual autonomy, and remembering that real love does not ask you to abandon yourself. Visit www.monetnoctaris.com to learn more.
