I’m here to ask the uncomfortable questions we usually avoid.In this first episode, we’re going in—on spiritual bypassing.You know the drill:💬 “Everything happens for a reason.”💬 “Just raise your vibration.”💬 “Pain is just an illusion.”Sounds comforting—until it isn’t.We’ll talk about: • How spiritual language can gaslight you out of your own emotions • The fine line between personal responsibility and systemic gaslighting • Why “love & light” isn’t always loving or light • How spiritual bypassing props up systems of inequality and shuts down real healing • And why some of the most “evolved” folks might be the most emotionally avoidant👁️‍🗨️ If you’ve ever walked out of a breathwork class more confused than centered—this one’s for you.💣 If you’ve been told your burnout is just “low vibration”—this one’s definitely for you.🎧 Subscribe, leave a comment, and tell me:What’s the most unhelpful “wisdom” someone’s thrown at you while you were struggling?We’re not here to “just stay positive.”We’re here to sit in the tension.🌀 This is Space in Between—where healing gets honest.
