Spiritual AF Sundays The Mystic Geek

Instagram-perfect is no longer just for fashion models. Whenever we turn to social media we see spiritual healers with curated feeds talking about how they have their stuff together. At the same time, we see others going to cringey lengths to be emotionally vulnerable, not knowing the fine line between authenticity showcasing something that may be better off on reality TV. If that's not enough, we keep getting messaging that we need to heal ourselves, often by facing our darkest issues head-on.
In this episode of Spiritual AF Sundays, we're bringing on Author, Empathic Mentor, and Master Trainer for EFT International Jennifer Moore to explore how hustling and working on the biggest, messiest emotional issues may not be the best route to healing ourselves. We'll also discuss how social media encourages performative acts of vulnerability and how new healers face unique challenges when trying to understand their own limits. Finally, we'll talk about the need to focus on our own healing process in addition to helping others, as well as introduce listeners to Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).

When we were young, we leaned on others for support and guidance. It makes sense. If you're a child, you should probably listen to your parental units, as well as mentors on what is okay to do.
And as we grew older, we looked to outside signs of what it means to be successful or what it means to have acceptance.However, there's no instruction book on learning to listen to yourself, so we run the risk of living our lives based on other people's standards. How do we learn to stand on our own?
In this episode of Spiritual AF Sundays, we bring on kinesiologist and archetypal life coach Amanda Kate to share her own story of healing and the importance of being able to distinguish between your own inner voice's callings and that of society.

Have you ever wondered how spirituality and politics are interconnected? Or why we become so polarized by the media? In this week's episode of Spiritual AF Sundays, we bring on Marc Wendt, Mens Wisdom Coach and Transformation Agent Provocateur, to explore these questions and more as we dive into the complex world of politics and belief systems.
We'll take a closer look at how breaking free from social conditioning can help us see things in a new light, and why modern political discourse often falls short of productive debate. And speaking of debate, we'll discuss the difference between healthy debate and toxic arguing.
But perhaps most importantly, we'll delve into the concept of truth - what it is, how it's defined, and whether it can be both objective and relative at the same time. And to wrap things up, we'll introduce you to Democracy 2.0 - a new approach to democracy that could revolutionize the way we think about politics. So join us for an eye-opening conversation on spirituality, politics, and everything in between!
