  I Got What I Wanted. Why Did I Feel So Lost? — with Melissa Rose

  Oct 3, 20261h 6mS2

  What happens when you achieve the dream—and still don’t feel the way you thought you would? Melissa Rose, performer, founder of InnerVox, and host of The Purpose Search Podcast, joins me for an honest, funny, and deeply personal conversation about success, spiritual awakening, and learning to trust your own inner voice. Melissa shares how reaching London’s West End coincided with some of her hardest emotional struggles, how therapy helped her begin understanding her past, and how meditation and a journey to Bali opened unexpected possibilities for her life. We explore the intuitive nudge that brought us together, the difference between looking accomplished and feeling safe enough to be real, and why becoming someone new doesn’t mean rejecting every version of yourself that came before. Melissa also shares her personal experience of receiving a Metatron Gold Cube installation before our recording—and how it sent our planned interview in an entirely different direction. There’s laughter, vulnerability, and a reminder that even when you’ve done a lot of inner work, you’re still allowed to need someone who can hold space for you.

  The Universe Doesn't Owe You a Reward

  Sep 22, 202630 minS2

  What happens when you've done the healing, set the boundaries, trusted your intuition, raised your vibration, surrendered to divine timing…and the Universe still doesn't give you the damn thing? Where's the relationship? The opportunity? The abundance? The new life you thought all this spiritual growth was supposed to unlock? In this episode of Aligned AF: Real Talk for the Evolving Soul , I'm looking at the quiet bargain many of us make with the Universe: If I do the work, life should start cooperating with me. But what if spiritual growth doesn't create a debt the Universe is required to repay? We talk about how healing can quietly become another achievement system, why disappointment doesn't mean you're out of alignment, the difference between surrender and pretending not to want something, and what happens when we stop using outcomes as evidence of our worth. Because maybe the reward for healing isn't that nobody hurts you again. Maybe the reward for boundaries isn't that everyone respects them. Maybe the reward for self-love isn't that somebody finally chooses you. And maybe the point of doing the work isn't earning a perfect life. Maybe it's becoming someone who can actually inhabit the life they're already living. Your life is not a spiritual vending machine. You don't insert three meditations, two healed traumas, a forgiveness practice and a vision board, press B7, and receive your soulmate. You can still want the thing. Hope for the thing. Work your ass off for the thing. Just maybe without handing the Universe an invoice afterward. Topics: spiritual growth, manifestation, surrender, alignment, healing, self-worth, spiritual awakening, divine timing, self-love, boundaries, spirituality, personal growth

  The Lies We Live: You can't heal a life you keep lying about

  Sep 3, 202640 minS2

  What if the biggest thing standing in the way of your healing isn’t what happened to you—but the story you’re still telling yourself about your life? In this solo episode of Aligned AF: Real Talk for the Evolving Soul , Yahweh Kent explores self-deception, emotional healing, spiritual growth, radical honesty, and the uncomfortable truths we sometimes avoid in order to stay comfortable. We tell ourselves things like: “I’m fine.” “I’m happy here.” “This relationship works.” “I don’t have a choice.” “That’s just who I am.” “I’m staying because…” “Someday I’ll change it.” But what happens when those explanations stop being true and become stories we use to protect ourselves from something we already know? The Lies We Live is a deep look at the stories we unconsciously build around relationships, identity, fear, old wounds, difficult choices, and even spirituality itself. Yahweh explores why self-deception often begins as protection, how a survival strategy can eventually become a prison, and why healing sometimes requires us to stop asking only “What happened to me?” and begin asking: “What am I still participating in?” This episode also takes an honest look at spiritual bypassing and some of the phrases we use in spiritual communities: “Everything happens for a reason.” “I’ve forgiven them.” “I’m protecting my peace.” “I’m trusting divine timing.” Those beliefs can be deeply meaningful—but sometimes spiritual language can also give us beautiful ways to avoid anger, grief, responsibility, difficult conversations, or choices we’re afraid to make. And then there’s the body. What does your body already know that your mind keeps trying to negotiate with? The exhaustion around certain people. The relief when plans are canceled. The tension surrounding something you keep insisting is “fine.” Sometimes our bodies begin telling the truth long before we're ready to say it out loud. This isn't an episode about judging yourself for the choices you've made or blowing up your life in the name of “healing.” It's about something much simpler—and much harder: Being honest with yourself. Because radical honesty without compassion becomes cruelty. Compassion without honesty becomes enabling. Healing needs both. You don't have to change your entire life today. You don't have to have all the answers. Maybe the first step is simply asking yourself: Where in my life am I working really hard to convince myself of something? Sit with that one. Because truth doesn't always make life easier. But it finally makes an honest life possible. ️ Aligned AF: Real Talk for the Evolving Soul Hosted by Yahweh Kent Conversations about spirituality, consciousness, healing, self-awareness, personal growth, relationships, authenticity, and what it actually means to live an aligned life while still being beautifully, imperfectly human.

  Spiritual AF...And Still Pissed Off

  Aug 16, 202622 minS2

  SPIRITUAL AF... AND STILL PISSED OFF! | Anger, Spiritual Bypassing & Being Human Can you be deeply spiritual, believe in love and compassion...and still be absolutely pissed off at what you're seeing in the world? Hell yes. And maybe admitting it is more spiritual than pretending you're not. In this episode of Aligned AF: Real Talk for the Evolving Soul , I'm digging into something the spiritual community doesn't always like talking about: anger. What happens when your spiritual beliefs collide with your very human reaction to cruelty, injustice, hypocrisy, division, or people simply behaving badly? Does anger mean you're operating at a "low vibration"? Does judging someone's behavior make you less evolved? Are we supposed to send love and light to everything and everyone—even when part of us wants to scream, Are you fucking kidding me? I don't think spirituality asks us to stop being human. I think it asks us to become more conscious about what we do with our humanity. In this conversation, we explore spiritual anger, spiritual bypassing, compassion versus agreement, judgment versus discernment, and how anger can sometimes be information rather than evidence that you've somehow failed at being spiritual. We also talk about the uncomfortable possibility that two things can be true at once: You can love humanity...and be furious with human behavior. You can practice compassion...and still have boundaries. You can believe we're all connected...and still call bullshit when you see it. And you can be Spiritual AF...and still pissed off. If you've ever wondered, "Am I being a hypocrite—or am I just being human?" this episode is for you. IN THIS EPISODE: • Spirituality and anger • The problem with toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing • Why anger isn't automatically "negative energy" • Compassion without excusing harmful behavior • Judgment vs. healthy discernment • Using anger as information • Turning outrage into conscious, aligned action • Holding spiritual truth and messy humanity at the same time If this conversation resonates, tell me in the comments: Can you be spiritually evolved and still get pissed off?

  Running Into Buddha: An Unexpected Journey

  Aug 3, 20261h 17mS2

  Can meditation make you a better runner... or can it completely change your life? In this episode of Aligned AF: Real Talk for the Evolving Soul , Yahweh Kent sits down with Reed Pryor , a psychology graduate whose journey into meditation began with a simple goal: becoming a stronger track athlete. What started as mental training for competition unexpectedly led Reed halfway around the world, where he spent nine months living, studying, and meditating in Buddhist monasteries throughout Nepal . Now pursuing a Master's degree in Buddhist Classics , Reed shares how ancient Buddhist wisdom continues to shape his understanding of the mind, compassion, suffering, and what it truly means to live with intention. This isn't just a conversation about Buddhism. It's about curiosity. It's about transformation. It's about discovering that sometimes the path we're chasing quietly leads us somewhere we never expected to go. Whether you're interested in meditation , mindfulness , psychology , personal growth , spiritual awakening , or simply becoming a more present human being, this conversation offers practical wisdom that anyone can apply—regardless of their beliefs. In this episode, we explore: • Why Reed first started meditating as a competitive runner • How meditation unexpectedly transformed his life • Living inside Buddhist monasteries in Nepal • The relationship between psychology and Buddhist philosophy • What Western culture often misunderstands about Buddhism • Meditation beyond stress relief and productivity • Compassion, generosity, and receiving • Mindfulness in everyday life • Ancient wisdom for modern living • Why the journey often matters more than the destination Sometimes we think we're training for one thing... only to discover life has been preparing us for something much bigger. Perhaps you'll run into an unexpected path of your own.
