from Leaving the Church to Find God · host Melissa Whittington

In this episode, I'm sharing a conversation that first aired on Aviella Aloha's Student of Wealth Radio Hour on KAKU 88.5 FM in Maui, Hawaii.A note on context: Aviella approaches wealth, purpose, and community through a Christian faith framework. Her show opens with the Lord's Prayer and she references scripture throughout. I've recorded an intro for this episode to create a bridge — because the themes we explored are universal, even if the language isn't always mine.We talk about:→ The Clairs — clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairtangence & clairsentience→ Growing up in a high-control religion and deconstructing the programming→ Finding Jesus outside the church ("I love me some Jesus — I will never set    foot in a Pentecostal church again")→ Ancestor communication, Cherokee lineage & breathwork→ Why your authentic self is the greatest act of service you can offer→ Practical first steps to open your intuitionFor listeners of this show, this episode sits right at the intersection of where we live — leaving behind the container while honoring the sacred.─────────────────────────LINKS─────────────────────────📻 Aviella Aloha — Student of Wealth Hawaii:    https://www.studentofwealthhawaii.com   🎧 This episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/authenticallymeliSend us Fan Mail Support the showIf you would like to be a guest on this podcast or would like to support this work, visit www.leavingthechurchtofindgod.com where you can contact Melissa and or make a donation.
