Our first Life Question comes from Jade in Alexandria, VA: After years of suppressing childhood pain, Jade is now confronting the truth about her father's long-standing dysfunction—infidelity, alcoholism, and a toxic blended family. She wants to have a healthy relationship only with him, but how can she navigate authenticity, boundaries, and spiritual growth when family pressure runs deep?
Next, Shay wonders whether it's possible to feel both genuine gratitude and genuine dislike at the same time—especially when her new home, while a blessing, also triggers feelings of lack because it wasn't the house she truly wanted. Does her mixed emotions sabotage her spiritual practice?
Finally, Michael leads a meditation on focusing on the Real and Eternal You that is untouched by time and the human experience.
