Walking Through the Door

There is a version of this story where I don't make it.Where the door I walked through in March of 2019 is the last one.That version exists somewhere.But it's not the one I'm living.On my timeline, I woke up.And this is the story of how that happened.Episode 5 is the one I've been building toward since I first hit record.Not because it's polished.Because it's the most true.This is my awakening story — nothing softened, nothing left out. From a childhood where I felt everything and trusted none of it, through the religion that promised answers and delivered rules, through the darkest moment of my life, and into a deprivation tank in Montrose, Colorado where thirty years of weight finally put itself down.If you have ever felt too much for the room you were in — this is for you.If you have ever built your life inside a framework and watched it fail you — this is for you.If you are somewhere in the early tremors of your own awakening and you aren't sure if you're evolving or unraveling — you found this at exactly the right time.A note before you press play:This episode discusses my 2019 suicide attempt openly and without armor. If you or someone you love is struggling, please call or text 988 — anytime, day or night.You are never alone.Now let's go._______________________________________________________________988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988, available 24/7Justin Nordine Tattoos — www.justinnordinetattoos.comDeprivation tank experience — https://soakwellness.com/Books referenced: Dolores Cannon | Michael A.
