Listening to a podcast today with Jenna Zoe (link below), I wanted to tap into the essence of what she was saying and how it directly relates to where I have been.
Lately, I’ve been sitting with some tender truths.
Truths like how easy it is to drown in the endless consumption of information — podcasts, books, courses, reels. It’s all meant to help us, right? But sometimes I wonder if it only keeps us circling the same drain, avoiding the deeper work that actually changes things.
At some point, all this knowing has to become living. All this insight has to become embodiment. That usually starts by simply letting yourself say something out loud. To admit what hurts. To stop intellectualizing it all and get honest about what’s really running underneath the surface.
The unbecoming
So much of healing is not about becoming someone new, but unbecoming everything we’re not. It’s seeing life through a clearer lens — one that isn’t clouded by subconscious misinterpretations or protective narratives we created long ago.
Sometimes, we’re telling ourselves a completely different story about what happened, just so we can avoid the trigger.Just so we don’t have to feel that thing again.
And our brains are so clever at keeping us safe that they’ll muscle through it, show up in fake strength, or even slip into a kind of performative weakness — anything to keep us in the realm of the familiar.
Because to our nervous system, familiar is “safe,” even when it’s painful.
Getting comfortable with the unknown
The more I do this work — on myself and with clients — the more I see how healing is really about getting comfortable with the unknown. Because truly…that’s all there is.
Our minds try to build a neat little world where we’re protected from surprises, where we can outthink or outrun the hard stuff. But life doesn’t work that way. Healing doesn’t work that way.
At the end of the day, no one is coming to save me but me. And there’s something strangely comforting about that. Because it means the power to change, to feel differently, to live differently, is actually in my hands.
How this ties into my work
This is the heart of why I do what I do.
Whether it’s through Emotion Code sessions, where we gently release trapped emotions and inherited patterns that keep your system stuck in old loops…Or through mediumship sessions, where we receive loving perspective and reminders from Spirit that you’re never actually alone…
It’s all about helping you peel back those layers. To see yourself clearly. To stop muscling through life or getting lost in the next piece of information — and instead come back to your own knowing, your own heart.
Because the truth is, the more we clear, the more we unbecome, the more we allow the unknown — the more ease, trust, and self-compassion we get to live in.
If these words resonate with you and you’re feeling that pull to explore what’s underneath, I’d be honored to hold space for you. 🤍
