We’ve been told it’s laziness.
That if we just had more motivation, more discipline, we’d finally change.
But what if the thing holding you back isn’t resistance to progress — it’s grief for the version of you that had to survive?

In this episode, Ray dismantles the illusion that healing is all high vibes and affirmations.
She dives into how resistance is not the enemy but a sacred teacher — a signal of grief, fear, and the unfamiliar peace we’ve been conditioned to avoid.
You’ll learn how to recognize resistance in your everyday life, understand what it’s trying to tell you, and alchemize it into clarity, accountability, and action.

Because resistance was never laziness — it was your nervous system’s way of saying, “We’ve never been here before.”
