If you have ever had sex you have probably had HPV. Eight out of ten people will get it at some point and right now one in four people has it. Most people clear it on their own but sometimes it sticks and sometimes it sticks so long it turns into cancer. That is what happened to me. Hot men, hookups, and HPV left me one stage away from cervical cancer in my 20s.In this episode I get real about my years of chasing validation, the chaos of teenage rosters and hookups, and the wake up call that came when my pap smear results turned serious. I share the wild stories, the heartbreak, and the lessons that finally forced me to take ownership of my body and my health.This conversation is not about shame. It is about truth.

TW: This episode talks about mental health and suicideI’m pulling back the curtain on the parts of my story that shaped me most. My dad’s infidelity. My mom’s suicide. How those wounds hardwired me into survival mode. For years I ran from the pain through addiction, self abandonment, and repeating the same loops that were never mine to carry.This episode isn’t just about my past. It’s about the choice we all have to rewrite our stories. To break the habits and beliefs that keep us stuck. To step out of the pain that’s been passed down and finally rise into our purpose.If you’ve ever felt trapped in cycles that don’t belong to you, this is your reminder that survival doesn’t have to be your standard.

In this episode I sit down with DezMariah, Reiki healer, spiritual coach, and host of Spiritual & Spicy, to explore the sacred dance between duality and divine unity. We dive into the balance of masculine and feminine energy, what it really means to heal together instead of hurt together, and the powerful contrast between a soul tie and a trauma bond.DezMariah shares her perspective on divine unity and how we can hold both contrast and connection as part of our human experience. Together, we invite you to ask yourself where you are living in duality and where you are being called back into unity.Follow DezMariah on Instagram: @dezmariahxx
