What happens when the career you've built your entire identity around is no longer the path you're meant to follow?

For more than 23 years, Tanuuj K Grover knew himself as a professional chef. His world revolved around precision, timing, measurements, and creating something meaningful through food.

But when career setbacks, financial uncertainty, and unexpected closed doors began challenging everything he had built, Tanuuj found himself facing a question many of us eventually encounter:

Who am I when the life I knew begins to change?

This week on Awakening Truths | MakeupyourPower Podcast, Nichole and Tina welcome Spotlight Guest Tanuuj K Grover, founder of Revum, for a conversation about identity, resilience, numerology, and discovering purpose through life's unexpected redirections.

After nearly two years of uncertainty, Tanuuj began exploring a different path through astrology, Tarot, ancient numerology, Numero Vastu, and Remedial Feng Shui.

What began as a personal search for understanding eventually became a new way of serving others.

As Tanuuj shares:

"Before I was making a food recipe. Now I'm making a cosmic recipe."

Throughout this conversation, we explore the emotional experience of losing a familiar identity, the importance of our internal dialogue, and how setbacks can sometimes invite us to reconsider the direction we're moving.

Tanuuj also introduces the principles behind his numerology work, including birth numbers, destiny numbers, and name correction. Tina joins him for a real-time numerology exploration, giving listeners a glimpse into how he approaches his practice.

But beyond the numbers and spiritual practices, this conversation is about something deeply human.

Learning to trust yourself when the path ahead looks nothing like the one you planned.

Find What Resonates

At Awakening Truths, we believe every story offers something different to the person listening.

As you hear Tanuuj's journey, we invite you to reflect:

• Have you ever experienced a setback that caused you to question your identity or direction?

• Are you holding on to a version of yourself that may no longer reflect who you're becoming?

• What if a closed door isn't always the end of your story, but an invitation to explore something different?

You don't have to share every belief or follow the same path to find meaning in someone else's experiences.

Take what speaks to you. Reflect on what challenges you. Leave what doesn't align.

Because sometimes the next chapter begins when we become willing to see our lives through a different lens.

Maybe the recipe for your future isn't the one you originally planned.

And maybe that's where something new begins.

What happens when the life that once defined you no longer exists—and you're left asking who you are underneath all of it?

For more than two decades, Summer built a successful career within the structure of the federal government. Behind that highly analytical and regulated world, however, was another part of her life she kept much quieter: her intuition.

Then life began asking her to listen differently.

In this deeply personal Spotlight conversation, Summer joins Nichole L Haywood and Tina Akowitz to share the experiences that shaped her spiritual awakening, her relationship with intuition, and eventually the creation of Just Be True.

Summer takes us back to a pivotal moment in her 30s when she began hearing voices she couldn't explain. Afraid she was “going crazy,” she scheduled an appointment with a medium. Before Summer could explain what had been happening, the medium told her the very thing she desperately needed to hear: “You're not crazy.” That moment became a light switch, allowing experiences from much earlier in Summer's life to suddenly make sense.

One of those experiences takes this conversation somewhere especially vulnerable.

Summer shares the story of sitting outside her apartment years earlier and repeatedly hearing a warning telling her not to go inside. She questioned it, reasoned with it, and ultimately entered her apartment—where she encountered an armed attacker and survived a violent assault. Looking back through the lens of her later awakening transformed the way she understood that night, intuition, and the guidance she believes had been trying to reach her. Pasted text

But Summer's story isn't simply about developing spiritual gifts.

It's about learning to trust herself.

It's about what happens when an identity you've spent decades building disappears.

It's about missing the structure, authority, financial security, and familiarity of an old life while simultaneously knowing you're being called toward something different.

And it's about realizing that transformation doesn't always happen overnight.

After being laid off from her 22-year federal career in 2025, Summer found herself navigating exactly that space. She speaks candidly about the freedom that came with the transition—and the very human reality that followed: missing her salary, her structure, her role and the people who once came to her for answers. Pasted text

Today, Summer brings both sides of herself into her work: the grounded, analytical woman who understands systems and structure, and the intuitive practitioner who believes deeply in energy, healing and our ability to reconnect with ourselves.

Through Just Be True, she is building something larger than individual sessions. Her vision is community—a place where people navigating awakening, trauma, life changes or experiences they don't quite know how to explain can feel accepted rather than alone. Pasted text

And before the conversation ends, Summer opens herself to a channeled message for the audience:

Trust what you're feeling. Stop fighting every season you don't understand. Allow yourself to experience your life instead of trying to control every part of it.

Because, as Summer beautifully reminds us, sometimes the expansion we're searching for begins on the other side of our own fear. Pasted text

And when Nichole asks Summer what she would tell the woman she once was, her answer brings the entire conversation home:

“Just be true to who you are. Just be true to you and all else aligns.” Pasted text

This is a conversation about awakening, identity, intuition, trauma, transition, self-trust, community and becoming more fully who you already are.
