Summary

What if the moment your spiritual world falls apart is actually the moment your spiritual life is about to take off?

In this episode, Rev. MK Mitchell names something many of us are feeling right now: The Great Unmooring. As teachers fall, pivot, or reveal themselves to be deeply human (quirks, foibles, flaws and scars), many seekers are left adrift, questioning not just the person, but everything they believed. This episode is a reframe and a reclamation. We explore why we hand our spiritual authority to others, how to separate the teaching from the teacher, and how to remember that the magic was always inside you.
