Spirituality can be a source of deep healing—but when misused, it can also cause harm. This blog explores the subtle yet powerful dynamic of spiritual narcissism—where ego hides behind enlightenment. It’s a call for awareness, integrity, and accountability in modern spiritual spaces. Let’s move beyond performance into a practice rooted in humility, compassion, and real inner work.
In coaching and wellness, persuasion is powerful—but can easily slip into propaganda. Ethical persuasion informs and empowers; propaganda manipulates. As belief systems go viral, especially at the intersection of wellness and politics, it's vital to lead with integrity, nuance, and critical thinking. Let’s keep it REAL—in practice and in truth.
Belle Gibson faked brain cancer and built a wellness empire on lies, promoting alternative healing while people abandoned real treatment.

Astrology
New Moons and Full Moons and everything in between.
On March 29, a powerful New Moon partial solar eclipse in Aries marks a turning point of radical endings and bold beginnings. With the North Node in Pisces and Neptune entering Aries, this cosmic moment urges truth, surrender, and transformation. Illusions dissolve, revelations rise, and clarity becomes a revolutionary act. We are being called to release the past, face reality, and awaken to a new era rooted in discernment, action, and truth.
March 2025 is a month of profound astrological shifts, marked by two eclipses, Venus and Mercury retrogrades, and Neptune’s rare entry into Aries. These cosmic events stir rapid change, urging deep reflection, recalibration, and decisive action. Themes of evolving values, navigating ideological battles, and balancing intellect with intuition dominate. With chaos comes opportunity—March is a turning point. Will we resist or rise? The choices we make now shape the future. Buckle up—transformation is here.
The atmosphere is thick with transformation. Whether or not you follow astrology, the shifts are undeniable—change is messy, disruptive, and often uncomfortable. But transformation demands awareness. We can’t change what we refuse to see. History shows us that great upheavals push humanity forward, forcing us to adapt, innovate, and awaken.
Right now, we stand at a critical choice point. Truth has a way of piercing illusions, and in times like these, clarity is both a challenge and a gift. The real question isn’t if change is happening—it’s how we choose to meet it.
Let that truth lead the way.
