I was raised Christian but I have decided to take my relationship with God into my own hands and out of the contructs of what I was taught. The Spiritual Realest is a space for honest conversations about what it really looks like to grow, question, and stay grounded in your spiritual journey. No performance and no pretending, just real life, real challenges, and real alignment. If you are learning how to trust yourself, unlearn what no longer serves you, and live with intention, this is for you. I just want to set the captives free!

    Is Jesus the Only Way? | Episode 25

    This episode was never supposed to be an episode. What started as an impromptu, off-the-cuff conversation between Scarlett Draught and someone off mic turned into one of the most honest spiritual conversations on The Spiritual Realist. Because the conversation was not originally intended for the podcast, you will hear Scarlett clearly, while the other person is off mic. The audio is less polished than a traditional episode, but the conversation was too real not to share. In Is Jesus the Only Way?, Scarlett and her conversation partner wrestle with Christianity, spirituality, salvation, heaven, hell, reincarnation, faith, and the fear of being wrong. They ask the questions people are often taught not to ask: Can someone be a genuinely good person and still be condemned because they do not believe in Jesus? Does prayer have to go through Jesus to reach God? Is salvation about belief, behavior, grace, or something deeper? And how much of what we believe is rooted in faith — versus fear of choosing the wrong path? The conversation also moves into reincarnation, spiritual evolution, the afterlife, and why unfamiliar spiritual practices are so quickly labeled evil. This is not a formal debate, and it was never meant to be. It is two people with different spiritual perspectives talking honestly, challenging one another, checking one another, and trying to better understand what they believe and why. Sometimes the conversations we never planned are the ones we most need to hear. Is Jesus the only way? The Spiritual Realist with Scarlett Draught — heavenly minded, but earthly good.

    Deities | Episode 24

    Connect with us at thespiritualrealest.com In this episode of The Spiritual Realest, Scarlett Drow continues the conversation about spiritual practice by exploring tobacco, deities, Orishas, and the importance of understanding what you are working with before you step deeper into a tradition. Scarlett shares how tobacco can be used in spiritual practice as an offering, a way to hold prayer and intention, support ritual focus, and create a connection between the spiritual and physical. From there, she opens a larger conversation about Orishas, including Agayu, Oshun, Oya, Shango, Eshu, and others, and discusses how African spiritual traditions were preserved through associations with Catholic saints. She also challenges the idea of choosing a deity simply because you identify with its most attractive qualities. Every Orisha carries duality, and true understanding requires more than social media research or picking the characteristics you like. Most importantly, Scarlett encourages anyone interested in these traditions to seek knowledge, credible spiritual guidance, and a trustworthy house before allowing anyone to initiate, guide, or perform spiritual work for them. Get understanding. Get wisdom. Get knowledge. And know what you're getting into before you get into it.

    Altars | Episode 23

    Altars can be powerful—but setting one up without understanding what you’re inviting into your space can be a problem. In this episode of The Spiritual Realest, Scarlett breaks down several different types of altars, including ancestor altars, money altars, hoodoo altars, and the boveda, while explaining some of the basic elements people may encounter when beginning their own research. But this conversation goes deeper than candles, flowers, water, herbs, and petitions. Scarlett gets real about the responsibility that comes with spiritual practice, why every piece of information isn’t meant for everybody at every stage of their journey, and why being careful about what—and who—you invite into your spiritual space matters. And before you build another altar asking for money, protection, guidance, or connection, there’s one altar you need to make sure you’re taking care of first: You. Your mind. Your body. Your soul. Your spirit. Because you were the first altar you were ever given—and no spiritual practice means much if you’re neglecting yourself. The Spiritual Realest is where spirituality meets responsibility—heavenly minded, but always earthly good.

    Divination Tools | Episode 22

    In this episode of The Spiritual Realest, I’m opening up my spiritual toolbox and breaking down some of the different ways people use divination to seek clarity, guidance, and confirmation. From tarot and oracle cards to pendulums, dowsing rods, playing cards, prayer, and other tools, there are many ways to communicate with spirit—but that does not mean every tool is meant for everybody. I share how I personally work with these tools, how I cleanse and prepare them, and why your spiritual hygiene and relationship with your own spirit team should always come first. I also introduce my own 60-card Oracle deck for the first time and talk about the intention, prayer, and spiritual guidance that went into creating it. Then we get hands-on. I demonstrate how I use pendulums and rods for yes-or-no questions, explain how dowsing works for me, and even ask my spirit guide a few questions in real time. But the biggest message is this: use discernment. Do your research. Know what you are working with. Be intentional about what you invoke, and do not pick up a spiritual practice just because you saw somebody else doing it. Spirituality is personal, and what works in my house may not be what is meant for yours. Heavenly minded, but always earthly good.

    Words Are Spells | Episode 21

    Before the candle is lit, the herbs are gathered, or the ritual begins, the first spell is often spoken through your own mouth. In this episode, I’m talking about the power carried by our words and how easily they can plant seeds of confidence, fear, possibility, limitation, blessing, or destruction. I share a personal experience that taught me how quickly spoken intentions can begin shifting our lives, sometimes before we believe we are ready. We also examine the words spoken over us by family, friends, partners, media, and society, and how repeated messages can become part of our subconscious identity. Being told you are always late, not smart enough, incapable of changing, or destined to struggle can become a script you continue living unless you intentionally rewrite it. Your tongue can speak life or reinforce the very conditions you are trying to escape. Instead of declaring that you are always broke, overwhelmed, unlucky, or unable to change, you can begin choosing language that leaves room for growth, abundance, discipline, and transformation. This week, I’m challenging you to become more intentional with the words you speak over yourself and others. Speak life. Encourage yourself. Break the spell of every limiting story that no longer belongs to you. Because your words are not empty. Your words are spells.

    Spiritual Growth Is Not a Race | Episode 20

    Spirituality should bring you into greater alignment, not pull you away from your body, your relationships, or your everyday responsibilities. In this episode, I’m talking about what spiritual imbalance can look like, from anxiety, exhaustion, and emotional triggers to relying so heavily on tarot or other spiritual tools that you stop trusting your own inner voice. Not everything is a spiritual attack, and not every decision needs to be taken to the altar. Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is slow down, ground yourself, and take care of your human needs. I also share how moving too quickly can create unnecessary tower moments, why divine timing matters, and how vetiver can support grounding, emotional stability, and spiritual realignment. Spiritual growth is not about rushing to become more gifted. It is about creating balance between your human connection and your connection with God. Spiritual alignment is freedom. Take care of your human side with the same intention you give your spiritual side, because both are necessary for lasting growth.

    I Refused to Pass Down Childhood Trauma | Episode 19

    My parents loved me, protected me, and did what they believed was best for me. But love and good intentions do not always prevent childhood wounds. In this episode, I open up about being introduced to dieting at an early age, struggling to believe my body was acceptable as it was, and learning that parts of my personality did not always fit what others expected a girl to be. My mother wanted to protect me from how the world treated bigger bodies. My father wanted his only daughter to embrace her femininity. Neither of them intended to cause harm, but those experiences still shaped how I saw my body, my identity, and myself. When I became a parent, I made a conscious decision not to pass those pressures down. I wanted my daughter to have a healthy relationship with her body, movement, food, femininity, masculinity, and the freedom to be exactly who she was. This conversation is not about blaming our parents or pretending they did not love us. It is about recognizing that people can love us deeply and still leave us with something we must heal. We cannot always control what was planted in us, but we can decide what continues through us. What did you inherit that you never wanted to pass down? What behavior in your child triggers something unresolved within you? And what can you change now so the cycle ends with you? I am looking honestly at what shaped me, honoring the people who raised me, and choosing not to repeat what no longer serves the generations coming after me. Heavenly minded, but earthly good.

    ASÉ vs Amen | Episode 18

    In this episode, I sit with the spiritual meaning behind Ashe and Amen. This is not an attack on the church, and it is not about making Amen wrong. Amen has been a word of agreement, survival, memory, and faith for generations before us. It helped our people make it through things many of us will never fully understand. But Ashe is different. Ashe is action. Ashe is power. Ashe is manifestation. Ashe is the authority of speaking a thing and knowing that your words carry life, movement, and spiritual force. I talk about why Ashe feels so personal to our bloodline, why so many of us are being called back to what was intentionally hidden from us, and why reclaiming our words is part of reclaiming our power. This episode is for anyone who has started questioning what they were taught, not because they are lost, but because they are finally ready to remember. Stand in your power. Speak with authority. Take ownership of your words. Ashe.
