I Took the Road Less Traveled—Now I Don’t Know Where the F*ck I Am (Spiritually Speaking)


I Took the Road Less Traveled—Now I Don’t Know Where the F*ck I Am (Spiritually Speaking)

At some point in my spiritual journey
probably during a full moon, while clutching a chunk of amethyst and sobbing into a cup of herbal tea—I decided to take the road less traveled. You know the one. It’s not on Google Maps. There are no signs, no gas stations, and definitely no Starbucks. Just vibes. Cosmic ones.

I thought it was going to be all love, light, and ascension codes.

Instead, it’s been more like:

“Where am I?”
“What dimension is this?”
“Why does my shadow keep yelling at me?”
“Am I healing… or just hallucinating on cacao again?”

The road less traveled is basically a spiritual back alley with detours through your childhood trauma, several ego deaths (RIP to the old me—again), and confusing downloads that come in at 3 a.m. when you're just trying to sleep but your guides are like, “Wake up, beloved, you must journal.”

Don’t get me wrong. There’s beauty in this chaos. There are moments where the veil lifts and you see the truth of everything—then promptly forget it the next morning and have to start all over again. That’s the magic and the madness of awakening. It’s like trying to find your way out of IKEA blindfolded, using only your intuition and a pendulum.

Sometimes I feel like a cosmic hitchhiker. Other days, I’m the driver, passenger, and backseat inner child all screaming at the same time. Progress is non-linear. So are my chakras.

And yet… I wouldn't go back.

Because the truth is: the road more traveled was never mine. It was paved by society, cemented in fear, and lined with beige cubicles and hollow conversations. No thanks.

This road—though bizarre and bewildering—feels real. Soul real. Even if I have no idea where the f*ck I am, at least I’m not pretending anymore. I’m just here, raw and ridiculous, unraveling lifetimes of karmic nonsense while laughing at how seriously I used to take this human gig.

So if you’ve also taken the weird, winding path through the metaphysical jungle and ended up existentially lost—welcome. You’re exactly where you’re meant to be. Kind of. Maybe. I don’t actually know. But hey, let’s wander together.

And if all else fails, just follow the scent of burning sage and the sound of someone hysterically laughing at the absurdity of it all. That’s probably me.

Breaking Free from Division: A Call to Unite in Love

  Breaking Free from Division: A Call to Unite in Love Everywhere we turn, the world feels like it’s unraveling. War, political upheaval, and social unrest dominate the headlines. Countries clash over resources and power, governments crumble under corruption, and society is increasingly divided into factions—left versus right, the elite versus the working class, one country against another. It’s a carefully orchestrated chaos, keeping humanity distracted and disconnected from what truly matters. We’re being fed a constant stream of fear, anger, and outrage, designed to keep us in a state of division. But what if we’re missing the bigger picture? What if, beneath all of this turmoil, the universe is orchestrating something far greater?   It may not seem like it, but everything is unfolding exactly as it should. The universe doesn’t make mistakes. Humanity is being pushed—forced—to evolve. Every event, every leader, and every moment of tension is part of a much larger plan....

How to Stay Sane in a World Gone Mad

  How to Stay Sane in a World Gone Mad It’s no secret—the world feels like it’s spinning out of control. Everywhere you look, there’s conflict, corruption, division, and a sense of unease hanging in the air. Social media amplifies every crisis, and the never-ending news cycle keeps feeding us chaos. For empaths, lightworkers, and those who simply feel deeply, it can feel like an unbearable weight. So how do you navigate this madness without letting it consume you? 1. Recognize What You Can and Cannot Control You can’t single-handedly fix the world, but you can control how you respond to it. Focus your energy on what is within your reach—your thoughts, actions, and the energy you bring into the world. When you feel overwhelmed, take a step back and ask yourself: Is this something I can change? If not, allow yourself to release it. 2. Limit Exposure to Negativity Doomscrolling through social media or watching hours of news won’t make the world better—it will only drain you. Be ...
