Welcome to Part Three of the Roots & Rituals series, where we get honest about the practices that were supposed to ground us—but didn’t quite make it past week one.This episode is a love letter to the rituals that never stuck. The ones we were so sure would change our lives. The routines we downloaded, bookmarked, scheduled… and then silently ghosted.Because sometimes, the pressure to “stay consistent” becomes louder than the ritual itself. And when that happens, what once felt sacred can start to feel like shame.In this episode, Darnell explores the heartbreak and humor of trying to build consistency in a world that often demands perfection—but rarely makes space for real, messy, human practice.If you’ve ever started something with the best of intentions… and quietly never mentioned it again, this one’s for you.We’re not here to judge your half-finished journals or your one-day meditations.We’re here to release the guilt, laugh a little, and remember:Falling off doesn’t mean you failed.It just means you’re human.And that’s sacred too.
