"Life is for Entertainment Purposes Only": Discussion with Christian Bradley West about navigating spiritual awakenings, absurdity, and the power of showing your work

Join us for a beautifully authentic, vulnerable, and potent discussion with Christian Bradley West (aka The Country Clairvoyant) on all things spiritual awakening, coming into ourselves and our authenticity, the sometimes circular journey of deep healing, and above all... to not take life so seriously. Known partly for his work on social media in finding humor and pointing out the absurd within our spiritual journeys here on Earth, Meo and Shannon talk to Christian about how we can stay grounded and keep things in perspective while we try to heal, grow, and evolve in this life, especially in light of religious dogma, the multitude of different spiritual beliefs and "rules" that exist, and whatever hot spiritual "dos and don'ts" being touted by the latest popular gurus. This episode is jam-packed with the good stuff, most of all though, the emphasis on the importance of going within and finding what is truth for ourselves, being brutally honest with ourselves about what it means to be part of humanity, and how choosing to be open and vulnerable about our process. They discuss the importance of "showing your work" for others to see - all the messiness that's involved with healing and growth, and that doing so is one of the most authentic ways teachers or wayshowers can help others feel empowered to do the same. Christian is witty, intelligent, compassionate, highly intuitive, and deeply empathetic. It was so fantastic to connect with him and record this conversation!
