Have you ever felt that gnawing sensation when something that once filled you with excitement now feels like a chore? That uncomfortable feeling might be the universe's way of telling you it's time to spread your wings.

In this deeply personal episode, I share the powerful revelations that came to me during a sunrise swim in the Atlantic Ocean on a pivotal 7-7 portal day. As waves crashed around me—some gently lifting me, others knocking me down—I recognized how perfectly they mirrored my recent spiritual journey in Florida.

For months, I'd been clinging to situations and teachings that no longer resonated, convinced that letting go would somehow mean failure. What I discovered instead was a profound truth from ancient wisdom: "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear; when the student is truly ready, the teacher will disappear."

This episode explores the delicate balance between dedication and attachment. I reveal how my Enneagram 8 tendencies toward control had kept me pushing others toward paths that weren't theirs to walk, and how learning to trust my own discernment finally freed me to recognize when seasons had changed.

Whether you're questioning your current path, feeling stuck in old patterns, or sensing that something new is calling you forward, this conversation offers compassionate guidance for distinguishing between the comfort of familiarity and the joy of authentic growth. Learn why true teachers ignite passion rather than demand compliance, and how recognizing when to move on isn't abandonment—it's graduation.

Join me in exploring how we can honor what we've learned while courageously stepping toward what's next. Your next level of awakening might be waiting just beyond what you're willing to release.
