Why is it sooo hard to connect with the worth that is inherent in our existence? Why isn't awakening to our true nature, to our spiritual and creative gifts enough to heal this wound and actualize our inherent worth?
And why do I have such issues with how we use the words "deserve" and "worthy" in the trendy spiritual lexicon?
Let's explore.
In this episode:
- Where the worthiness wound originates (bigger than personal trauma)
- One of the biggest obstacles to connecting with core worth that I've observed in us spiritually awakened humans
- How the final stages of alchemy--the Dark Nights of the Spirit and Distillation help deliver us from the madness of always having to prove our worth
- More exploration of the Philosopher's Stone/the Unbreakable Core
With love for the outliers,
McCall
