Where Catholic faith meets folk magic, astrology whispers truths, and the divine flows through every ritual.
The Sacred Mix is a space for souls who have been told they have to choose — between faith and magic, between the church and the craft, between who they are and who they're told they should be.
Created by Laura — a Catholic grey witch, Life Path 33, and Sacred Flame Oracle — this is where astrology, Hoodoo, folk magik, numerology, human design, and deep Catholic faith all exist in the same breath.
You don't have to choose. You never did. 🕯
I'm a grey witch, oracle, and devoted believer who has walked between worlds since I was 13 years old. My path is one that others don't always understand — blending Catholic faith with folk magic, Hoodoo, astrology, numerology, and Human Design into something wholly my own.
The Sacred Mix was born from the sacred chaos of my life: the prayers whispered at midnight, the candles lit with intention, the stars I've studied for years. I created this space for every soul who's been told they can't hold both faith and magic in the same hands.
You can. I'm proof.
New episodes drop weekly — each one a portal into the sacred intersection of faith, stars, and magic.

"And God said, Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years." — Genesis 1:14
I want to tell you about the night the moon changed my life forever. Not in a poetic, metaphorical way. I mean it literally changed the course of something I was holding onto — something I had buried so deep I thought no one would ever find it. Not even God. Not even me.
But the moon found it.
Let me be honest with you. When I first started studying astrology and hearing about Mercury retrograde and full moons, I thought it was interesting but I didn't really believe it. Not fully. I was curious the way you're curious about something you've never tried before — open, but skeptical.
I had faith. I loved God. But I had been taught that the stars were just stars. Beautiful, yes. But just decorations in the sky that God hung up like lights in a room. Nothing more.
Then came that night.
I sat outside alone under a full moon. I wasn't doing a ritual. I wasn't reading a chart. I was just sitting there — gazing up at it the way you do when something is so beautiful it makes you stop everything. And I just... stared.
Something shifted in me that I cannot fully explain with words. It was like a pressure. Like something that had been locked inside of me was suddenly being pulled to the surface. I was keeping a secret. Something I had been lying about to someone I cared about. And in that moment — uncontrollably, without planning it, without even deciding to — I released it. I told the truth.
I could not stop myself. The moon's energy just took over. What was hidden came to light. And I sat there afterward in absolute awe because I realized — that's not coincidence. That's not just the moon being pretty. That is power. Divine, God-given power written into creation from the very beginning.
Go back and read Genesis 1:14. Not quickly. Slowly. God didn't just create the lights in the sky to help us see at night. He said they would serve as signs. To mark sacred times. Days and years. From the very beginning — before astrology was a trend, before anyone called it witchcraft or New Age — God Himself assigned purpose and meaning to the moon and the stars.
The full moon revealing what is hidden? That's a sign. Mercury retrograde slowing everything down so you're forced to revisit and reflect? That's a sacred time. The stars guiding and leading you somewhere you couldn't find on your own? That is exactly what God designed them to do.
I'm not worshipping the moon. I am recognizing the God who made it and the intention He placed inside of it when He spoke it into existence.
When I see the moon now I feel its energy. I feel the intensity of it — like it's alive, like it's speaking. There is something about standing under a full moon that makes me feel like I can do anything and achieve anything. It gives me a kind of happiness that is hard to describe. It is beautiful and it is unique and it is one of the ways God shows up for me.
And the stars? I feel like they are there to guide me. To lead me somewhere. Like breadcrumbs from heaven left specifically for the people willing to look up.
I believe God speaks through His creation. I believe He always has. And I believe that the night I sat under that full moon and finally told the truth — God was using the very sign He created to bring something hidden into His light.
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands." — Psalm 19:1
You don't have to choose between your faith and the sky God made. You never did.

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world." — Ephesians 6:12
I was 13 years old when I got my very first computer. And like any kid who suddenly had the whole internet at their fingertips, I searched everything. Anything I could think of. I clicked through page after page just exploring — not looking for anything in particular.
Until something found me.
I stumbled across a website about witchcraft, spells, and enchantments. I felt like I was led there — like my fingers just kept clicking until I ended up exactly where I was supposed to be. And on that website was a binding spell. One that used a candle.
Now at 13 I was getting into trouble at school constantly. And my principal — she and I did not see eye to eye at all. So I did what any resourceful 13 year old who just discovered candle magic would do. I performed that binding spell to keep her away from me. To basically make her stop seeing me. In my mind I wanted her gone.
Weeks passed.
My mother pulled me out of school and I was homeschooled.
I never saw that principal again.
The universe said — wish granted. 🕯
I know some of you are laughing. I know some of you are shaking your head. But in that moment as a 13 year old girl I realized something that I have never been able to unfeel since — this is real. Candle work is real. Intention is real. Energy is real.
And I was all in from that moment forward.
As I got older and my relationship with God deepened, something beautiful happened. My candle work didn't disappear — it transformed. I stopped using candles just for spells and started using them as petitions. As prayers with fire.
I began lighting candles to petition God directly. To call on Archangel Michael for protection over my home, my daughter, my husband. To pray for spiritual guidance when I couldn't hear God's voice clearly. To do uncrossing and unhexing work — removing any curses, hexes, or harm that anyone had sent my way, intentionally or not.
Because here's what people don't understand — spiritual warfare is real. Ephesians 6:12 says our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of evil. I believe that. Deeply. And candle work is one of the ways I fight that battle.
The most sacred thing I do with candle work is protection. As a mother and a wife there is nothing more important to me than covering my family spiritually. I have lit candles over my daughter's name. Over my husband. I have worked to break any generational curses trying to attach themselves to my bloodline.
I don't do this instead of prayer. I do this AS prayer. The candle is the physical representation of my intention meeting the spiritual realm. The flame is my faith made visible.
Some people call it witchcraft. I call it intercession with fire. 🔥
If you've been drawn to candle work and you love God and you've been told you have to choose — I want you to hear me. You don't have to apologize for the way you commune with the divine. You don't have to fit anyone else's box of what a Catholic looks like.
I started at 13 with a binding spell and a principal I never wanted to see again. And today I light candles for God, for my angels, for my family, and for my own protection. Both of those versions of me are real. Both are valid. Both are mine.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." — Jeremiah 29:11
Nobody tells you the truth about being a Life Path 33. They give you the highlight reel — Master Teacher, rare vibration, chosen, gifted, powerful. And yes, all of that is true.
But they leave out the part that's hard. The part that's lonely. The part where you spend years feeling like nobody in the room actually gets you — not fully, not really — and you start to wonder if something is wrong with you.
Nothing is wrong with you. You just carry a number that most people will never understand because most people will never carry it.
Being a 33 is hard. I will not sugarcoat that for you. Nothing comes easy. The challenges are real and they are constant and they are heavy. You feel things on a level that other people don't. You see things — your destiny, your vision, the life you're supposed to live — with a clarity that can feel like a curse when the reality around you doesn't match it yet.
I have always known who I am. I have always known what I want. I have always been able to see the vision of where I'm going. That knowing lives in my soul like a fire that never goes out no matter how cold things get around me.
But knowing your destiny and living it are two very different things. And the road between them? For a 33 — it is not a straight line. It is a test.
I felt it in my soul from the beginning — I was not built for a 9 to 5. I was not made to sit in someone else's dream and build their vision while mine waited. I knew I was meant for more. I knew I wanted to be wealthy but not just wealthy — I wanted to be wealthy doing something I love. Something that set my spirit on fire.
For me that thing is spirituality. It always has been.
I tried different things to get to my vision. Some of them failed. Some of them failed more than once. And for a long time I let that shake me. But then I realized something that changed the way I see everything —
Failure isn't delay for me. It's restructuring. God is rebuilding me to find a better way to do what I was always meant to do.
Every door that closed was redirecting me. Every thing that didn't work was clearing space for what will. A 33 doesn't fail — a 33 gets refined.
I'm not going to pretend the journey has been comfortable. There have been seasons of being broke. Seasons of uncertainty. Seasons where the vision felt so far away that I had to hold onto it with everything I had just to keep it from slipping.
But God has never let me go without. Not once. He knows what I need and He makes sure I have it. Not always in the way I expected. Not always on my timeline. But He provides. Every single time.
That's what it means to walk in faith as a 33. You hold the vision even when you can't see it yet. You trust the process even when the process is painful. You keep going because you know — deep in your soul you KNOW — that it is worth it.
I am creating generational wealth. Not just for me — for my daughter. For the generations that come after her. That is my assignment in this lifetime and I know it without a shadow of a doubt.
The 33 is called the Master Teacher because we are here to elevate others. To pour into people. To lead. To show the way. And I believe that The Sacred Mix is part of how I do that — through my podcast, through these articles, through every piece of content I put into the world.
I am powerful. I am abundant. I am wealthy — in spirit, in purpose, and in the trajectory God has set for my life. The money is coming. The legacy is already being built.
If you're a 33 reading this — I see you. The loneliness is real. The weight is real. But so is the calling. Keep going. 🕯

"He who digs a pit will fall into it, and he who rolls a stone, it will come back on him." — Proverbs 26:27
I was 13 years old, deep in a research rabbit hole about spirituality and Hoodoo, when I came across a video that stopped me completely.
A Black Hoodoo priest and teacher was on screen performing a working. Not just any working — she was returning a curse back to its sender. And I was completely intrigued. I couldn't look away. I watched every move she made, trying to understand what I was seeing.
And then she opened a book.
The Book of Psalms.
At 13 I had never really read the Bible. I didn't grow up deeply in church. So when I saw her open that book I had no idea what it was. I just knew it looked old and it looked powerful and she was using it like a weapon of protection.
I went to eBay and looked it up.
That is how I found out the Book of Psalms was part of the Holy Bible.
Let that sink in for a moment. God used Hoodoo — the very thing the church told people to stay away from — to lead a 13 year old girl straight to His Word. I wasn't raised in a pew. I wasn't handed a Bible at Sunday school. I found scripture through a Hoodoo priestess returning a curse on the internet. And I have never been the same since.
This is what most people — especially people raised in the church — don't know. Hoodoo is not separate from the Bible. Hoodoo, particularly in African American folk magic tradition, has always been deeply rooted in scripture. Psalms especially. Practitioners have used specific psalms for specific purposes for generations — Psalm 23 for protection, Psalm 91 for spiritual warfare, Psalm 37 for justice.
This is not new. This is not trend. This is ancient. This is the tradition that enslaved Black people held onto when everything else was taken from them — their language, their land, their freedom. They mixed their spiritual practices with the Bible that was handed to them and created something powerful, something holy, something that survived.
That is Hoodoo. And it has scripture written all the way through it.
Watching that priestess return a curse back to sender taught me something that I have carried with me ever since — energy is real, energy is powerful, and energy has to go somewhere.
When someone sends a curse, a hex, negative energy, or ill intent toward you — that energy exists. It is real. It is in motion. And if you do the work to remove it from yourself it doesn't just disappear into nothing. It has to go somewhere. And the most just place for it to go is back to the person who sent it.
That is not evil. That is spiritual law. Proverbs 26:27 says it plainly — he who digs a pit will fall into it. What you send out returns to you. Hoodoo practitioners have known this forever. They just have a ritual for it.
Energy is powerful and sometimes you have to manipulate it. That is not witchcraft against God. That is understanding how God's universe actually works.
What that priestess was doing was protection. Pure and simple. She was not hurting anyone who had not already tried to hurt her. She was not going on the offense — she was defending herself using the tools available to her. Scripture, intention, energy, and spiritual authority.
That is the same thing I do. That is the same thing generations of Hoodoo practitioners have done. And the Bible — the same Bible the church uses to condemn these practices — is threaded through every single working.
I found God through Hoodoo. Not despite it. Through it. And I will never be ashamed of that path because it led me exactly where I was supposed to go.

"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart." — Jeremiah 1:5
I didn't grow up in a time when people talked openly about their craft. There was no TikTok. No spiritual influencers. No community showing their altar on camera or teaching candle work to millions of followers.
Where I come from you kept it hidden. Not because of shame alone — because of danger. Not burn at the stake danger, though that still exists in parts of this world. I'm talking about being thrown into a psychiatric facility. Being medically induced. Being looked at like you were broken, like something was deeply wrong with you. Witchcraft wasn't accepted almost anywhere. And if you had gifts — real gifts — you learned very quickly to keep them to yourself.
When I first stepped into spirituality something happened that I was not prepared for. I connected with God more deeply than I ever had in my entire life. And with that connection came gifts I couldn't explain — visions, vivid dreams, knowing things before they happened, sensing things that hadn't been spoken out loud yet.
I didn't have language for what was happening to me. I just knew it was real. I knew it was powerful. And I knew it felt holy.
But then I found the scripture. The one they always point to. Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. Witchcraft is sin. It is of the devil. All witches burn.
And I was confused in a way I cannot fully put into words. Because the thing that was bringing me closer to God was the same thing the Bible seemed to condemn. How could something that felt this sacred be this wrong?
I stopped.
I put it all down. I walked away from my practice, from my gifts, from everything that had made me feel most alive and most connected to God. I denied that part of myself completely because I thought that was what faith required.
And I lost my gifts. Every single one of them. The visions stopped. The knowing stopped. The dreams went quiet. The connection I had felt so deeply — gone.
That was the worst mistake I ever made. When I denied my gifts I denied the God who gave them to me.
Don't worry — I got them back. But that season of silence taught me something I will never forget. You cannot suppress what God placed inside of you without losing a piece of yourself in the process.
When TikTok exploded during COVID something shifted in the world. Suddenly everyone was into spirituality. Everyone was posting their journey, their altar, their craft. Witchcraft was everywhere and for the first time it felt like maybe — maybe — there was a community where I would finally be understood.
So I stepped into the witch community online. And I thought these are my people. These are the ones who will get it.
I was wrong.
The witch community had a problem with God. A real one. And I couldn't understand it. If witchcraft is used for good — for protection, for healing, for love — why would you reject the source of all goodness? What I found was that many of them weren't rejecting God exactly. They were worshipping something else entirely. Goddesses. Deities. Pantheons I had never studied.
And so I learned. I went deeper. I studied the dark arts, dark magic, deity work, goddess worship. I won't pretend I didn't go to a darker place during that season — I did. I explored things I had never touched before.
And it still didn't feel right.
I spent almost three years just sitting with myself. Processing everything I had learned. Everything I had experienced. Every community that had told me I was too much or not enough. The church that said I was sinning. The witches that said I was too Catholic. The world that had no category for someone like me.
And somewhere in that silence the answer came through clearly.
Why not mix it all together?
Because every single thing I had learned — from faith, from folk magic, from Hoodoo, from astrology, from numerology, from human design — had worked. All of it. In different seasons, for different reasons, it had all served me. It had all led me closer to truth. It had all been real.
So why did I have to choose?
I am Catholic. I love God with everything I have. I pray, I read scripture, I was baptized in the Catholic Church and that faith is the root of everything I am.
I am also a grey witch. I work with candles and herbs and intention. I read charts and study the moon. I do protection work and uncrossing and I take my spiritual warfare seriously on every level — physical, energetic, and divine.
Both of those things are true at the same time. They always have been. It just took me years of being pushed out of every box to finally stop trying to fit into one.
The church said no. The witch community said no. And I stood in the middle of both of them and built my own path anyway.
That path is The Sacred Mix.
If you've been told you can't be both — you can. I'm proof. 🕯🌙

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." — Ephesians 6:12
I need you to understand something before we go any further. The things happening in your life — the cycles you can't break, the patterns that keep repeating, the relationships that keep falling apart, the anger you can't explain, the depression that won't lift — it is not all you. Some of it is, yes. But some of it is something else entirely.
Spiritual warfare is real. And most people are losing a battle they don't even know they're in.
Around 2016 and 2017 I was living in my first apartment. Mostly isolated. A lot of time alone with my thoughts, my studies, my search for truth. I was deep in studying spirituality and faith at the same time and I came across a YouTube channel that changed the way I saw everything.
They used anime — animation — to show how spirits and demons operate on people without their knowledge. How they attach. How they influence behavior. How they pass from person to person, from generation to generation. And as I watched those videos I wasn't watching strangers on a screen.
I was watching my life. My family. My friends.
I saw it all clearly for the first time — how these spirits operate, what their assignments are, how they destroy from the inside out while the person they're on has no idea what is driving them. That was the moment I truly understood what Ephesians 6:12 meant. We do not fight against flesh and blood. We fight against something we cannot see with our natural eyes.
This is the part that took real courage — turning that same discernment on myself.
At that time in my life I was actively doing drugs. Having ungodly soul ties. Filled with anger and depression. Surrounded by people who didn't like me for reasons I couldn't understand. And when I looked at all of it through the lens of what I had just learned I saw it for what it was — familiar spirits. Demons that had been passed down through my bloodline, waiting for their moment to show up in my life and carry out their assignment.
They came in my time. Right on schedule. And I almost let them win.
But I understood their assignment. And the moment you understand what something is sent to do — you take away its power to do it in the dark.
Once I could see it in myself I couldn't unsee it anywhere. I looked at my family and I saw the patterns clearly — gambling, infidelity, addiction, people stuck in life, people sick, people dying young, poverty passing from one generation to the next like an inheritance nobody asked for.
These were not just bad choices. These were familiar spirits hopping from one family member to the next, finding the open doors — the unhealed wounds, the unconfessed sins, the broken covenants — and walking right through them.
We had a generational problem. And generational problems require more than therapy. They require warfare.
I prayed powerful spiritual warfare scriptures over my husband. Over my family. I did workings to pull the people I loved out of what was on them. I fasted. I interceded. I fought with everything I had.
But I also learned a hard truth — if you cast a spirit out and you don't do it correctly, seven more will come back more powerful than the first. I learned that the hard way. I watched the spirits come back harder and stronger every time I wasn't fully equipped. Every time I went in without covering, without preparation, without the full armor.
That humbled me. Because spiritual warfare is not something you do casually. It demands your whole self.
This is how I fight now — fully equipped, fully covered, fully intentional.
🕯 Candle work — with holy water and anointing oil, my Bible open to Psalms, working with intention and authority.
📖 Scripture — Psalms specifically. Psalm 91, Psalm 23, Psalm 35. These are weapons not decorations.
🙏 Prayer — powerful, specific, targeted warfare prayer. Not vague. Not polite. Direct.
⚡ Fasting — some spirits only move through fasting and prayer. I take that seriously.
💧 Holy water and anointing oil — consecrated, intentional, applied with purpose over thresholds, over people, over spaces.
All of it together. Not one or the other. The full armor of God combined with every spiritual tool I have been given.
Years of study, years of warfare, years of being refined through the battle — I can see spirits and demons operating in people when they walk into a room. They cannot hide from me anymore. I know what I am looking at. I know what I am dealing with. And I know how to fight it.
That is not something I take lightly. That is a gift. And that gift came through the pain of fighting my own warfare first before I was equipped to help anyone else fight theirs.
It is not them. It is the spirit on them. We do not fight against flesh and blood. Remember that. It will change how you see everyone around you.

"He made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows its time for setting." — Psalm 104:19
Every time Mercury retrograde comes around the internet loses its mind. Don't sign contracts. Don't start anything new. Don't text your ex. Watch your technology. Brace yourself.
I used to be one of those people. Scared of it. Dreading it. Waiting for everything to fall apart the moment it started.
Now? I sit back and rest while I watch everyone else spiral. And I warn the people I love so they can do the same.
Let me tell you how I got here.
Mercury retrograde feels like a big spiritual test. Things get brought up that you thought were buried. Things that needed fixing finally force themselves to be fixed. People from your past show back up — exes, old friends, unresolved situations — all of them knocking on the door at the same time.
The energy is intense. It pushes you. It doesn't let you coast or avoid or procrastinate. It forces you to deal with everything you have been lacking on, everything you have been putting off, everything you told yourself you would handle later.
Later is here. Mercury retrograde is the universe's way of saying — we are not moving forward until you handle this.
I went through plenty of Mercury retrogrades before I understood what they were actually asking of me. And every single time I failed the test — every time I went back to someone I should have left behind, every time I reopened something that needed to stay closed, every time I avoided the work — those same people, those same situations, those same lessons came right back around.
Square one. Every time.
And square one is not fun. It is exhausting. It is demoralizing. It is standing at the beginning of something you thought you had already finished and realizing you never really completed it at all.
I also need to be honest with you — I was scared of Mercury retrograde for a very personal reason. I talked about it in another article but I will say it here too. During a Mercury retrograde combined with a full moon I was sitting outside one night and something I had been hiding from someone I loved came pouring out of me. Uncontrollably. I could not stop it. The energy of that season found what was hidden and brought it to the surface.
After that I was terrified of what these seasons could pull out of me. I did not trust myself in them. I did not trust what they might reveal.
Then one Mercury retrograde came around and I waited. I braced myself like I always did. I waited for the chaos, for the people from the past to start showing up, for the tests to begin.
Nobody came back.
Not one person. Not one old situation. Not one unresolved thing knocking at my door.
And in that silence I understood something that I will never forget —
When nobody comes back during Mercury retrograde it means you finally learned the lesson. You are ready for the next level. Your blessings are waiting on the other side.
I had done the work. I had passed the test. And the universe had nothing left to send back to me because I had already handled it all.
Now when Mercury retrograde comes I do not panic. I do not brace myself. I warn the people around me, I prepare, and then I rest while I watch everyone else go through their chaos.
Because I did the work. I faced the things that needed facing. I let go of what needed to go. I stopped running from the lessons and started sitting with them until I understood them completely.
Mercury retrograde is not a curse. It is not something that happens TO you. It is a mirror that gets held up to your face and shows you exactly what still needs your attention. Exactly what you have been avoiding. Exactly what is standing between you and the next chapter of your life.
If it's chaotic for you right now — that is information. What is being brought up? What is being forced to the surface? What have you been putting off that the universe is now refusing to let you ignore?
Do the work. Pass the test. Because on the other side of that test is everything you have been praying for.
And one day Mercury retrograde will come around and nobody will show up — and that silence will be the sweetest confirmation you have ever received. 🌙✨

"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." — Proverbs 22:6
Before I got pregnant I was deep in the dark arts. I knew the dangers. I had been on that path long enough to understand that when you work in those spaces you draw attention — not just from people who wish you well. From people who don't. From things that don't.
And the moment I found out I was carrying a child I knew one thing with absolute certainty — I had eyes on me. And now those eyes would be on her too.
I made a decision. For the sake of my daughter I was going to step back from the darker path I had been walking. Not because I thought it was wrong — I understood the path I had chosen and I knew it wouldn't just disappear. But I also knew I couldn't bring a baby into that level of spiritual exposure without consequences.
The problem was I wasn't fully equipped during my pregnancy. I wasn't deep in my craft. I wasn't Catholic enough at that time either. I was somewhere in between — trying to protect a life growing inside of me while not being fully armored myself.
But God never left me. Not once during that pregnancy did He go quiet. Almost every single night I had vivid intense dreams — warnings, signs, messages. God was speaking to me through my sleep when I wasn't spiritually active enough to hear Him any other way. He knew where I was. He met me there.
And I prayed. That was all I had in those months. Just prayer and hope that nothing would touch her.
The moment my daughter entered this world I understood something that no one had ever explained to me — newborns are the most spiritually vulnerable beings on this earth. They are pure innocence. And demonic spirits are drawn to innocence. They want to attach themselves to it before it has any defenses, before it even knows what it is.
I knew that. And knowing it meant I could not afford to be spiritually passive anymore.
I came back to my practice slowly and with purpose. Candle protection. Cleansing. Prayers over her while she slept. Anointing oil on her little body when I felt like she needed extra covering. Holy water — I put drops of holy water into her bottle because I believe wherever holy water goes it cleanses. And when she drank it I believed she was being healed, covered, and protected through the blood of Jesus Christ.
That is not superstition. That is a mother doing everything in her power — physical and spiritual — to cover her child.
As she grew — crawling, pulling herself up, starting to walk — she found her way to everything. Including my altar.
And I made a decision that surprised even me. I put it all away.
Not because I was done with my practice. But because I understood that the tools on my altar carry energy. They carry the residue of every working, every intention, every spirit that has been called in and worked with. And I was not going to let any of that attach itself to my daughter through innocent curious hands touching things she didn't understand yet.
Her protection came first. Before my practice. Before my altar. Before everything.
I have come to peace with what my role is in her spiritual journey — and what it is not.
I will teach her protection. Always. That is non-negotiable. She will know how to cover herself, how to recognize when something doesn't feel right, how to pray with authority and intention. That knowledge will be her inheritance.
But I will not push religion down her throat. I will not force a path on her. Because that was done to me — and look where it led. The pushing, the restricting, the being told what to believe and how to believe it — all it did was send me searching on my own through every dark and light corner of spirituality until I found my own truth.
She deserves to find her own truth too. On her own timeline. In her own way.
What I can give her is this — a mother who knows a little of everything. So whenever she has questions, whenever she's curious, whenever she's searching — she can come to me. And I will meet her wherever she is without judgment and without an agenda.
She has her own path. Her own destiny. And it is not my job to stand in the way of it. It is my job to make sure she is protected enough to walk it safely.
Being her mother has pushed me to protect, to fight, to pray, and to practice in ways I never would have without her. She is the reason my spiritual warfare is as strong as it is. She is the reason I came back to my practice with more intention and more discipline than I ever had before.
She pushed me to be a better version of myself. And because of her I owe her everything I achieve in this life. Every article. Every episode. Every bit of generational wealth I am building — it is for her.
You can raise a child in the grey. With love, with protection, with honesty, and with the freedom to find their own light. That is the most sacred thing I have ever done. 🕯🌙
That's The Sacred Mix.
