Rooted Realities with Christmas Miller

What if the very thing you were told would set you free … is actually keeping you stuck?

In this episode, I’m talking about the kind of forgiveness that doesn’t feel like peace, but more like pressure. You forgive, and then it happens again and again. Whether it’s repeated betrayal by the same person or a family pattern that keeps circling back, it’s not always simple, and it’s definitely not always healing.

We’ve been taught that be...

So you finally did the brave thing.

You let go.

You left.

You told the truth.

Or you closed the door. Maybe even locked it.

But … why do you still feel heavy?

In this episode, I discuss what it really means to move on and why the story we’ve been sold about how it should feel doesn’t hold up.

I’ll also share the often-overlooked parts—the doubt, the grief, and the unraveling of identity that happens once the outside change is made, but yo...

There are moments when the truth slips out of your mouth before you have a chance to edit it. Unfiltered. Unexpected. Unapologetically real.

For me, it came out as: “Momma … all I wanna do is sing.” But this episode isn’t about music — it’s about those deeper truths that rise up when we’ve outgrown the spaces we’ve been squeezing ourselves into.

This is for anyone who’s felt the tension between showing up for others, and honoring the...

What if your emotions weren't just reactions, but investments?

In this episode, we examine the hidden costs of how we expend our energy. And no, I'm not talking about your to-do list.

I'm talking about something more subtle and far more expensive: your emotional currency.

We exchange energy constantly  in conversations, online, in what we consume, and where we focus our attention. Few people ever stop to ask: Is this wo...

So you’ve tried shrinking yourself, playing it safe, and editing who you are just to be accepted. You’ve dimmed your light, sat on your ideas, and let go of a vision others couldn’t see. Maybe you’ve even silenced your truth to avoid being an outcast.

If you’re tired, still questioning, and feeling like what you bring is “too much” for the room — you’re not alone. Many of us have been there, stuck in the cycle of self-editing a...

So ... you’ve done the journaling. The meditations. Maybe even the therapy.

But if you’re still exhausted, still triggered, still tolerating what you swore you healed from … you’re not alone. Many of us have been there, caught in the cycle of performative healing.

In this episode, we’re talking about performative healing — what it really looks like, why it happens, and how to return to something real.

From unconscious survival pattern...
