  • Tub Transmission: Speaking to the Sky in Shades of Gray
    Aug 28 2025

    The second half of this channeled transmission of Hélène's highest self, dives into ancient knowing versus modern science, the persecution of healers, and why your voice matters even when it feels like no one's listening. Hélène reflects on being called "Butterfly" for her racing mind (and mouth) and explores why we need mess, color, and contrast in a world that demands perfection. A raw reminder that you were born to be witnessed, not hidden.

  • Tub Transmission: Moths, Smoke & Sacred Shadows
    Aug 28 2025

    In this first Tub Transmission, Hélène channels wisdom from her sacred bathtub space about finding light in the darkest places. Through visions of moths, burning incense, and the beauty of smoke against light, she explores why we need both shadow and illumination, and how the liminal spaces between them are where real transformation happens. Unscripted, unfiltered, and entirely from the heart.

  • Should You Quit Your Job? The Messy Reality Check
    Jul 30 2025

    Thinking of quitting your job—or feeling stuck in endless indecision about what comes next? Welcome to a radically honest, no-bullshit exploration of what it really means to leave (or stay at) your job, beyond the capitalist scripts and polite resignation letters.

    [CONTENT WARNING: Suicide, Murder.]

    Join fulfillment coach and recovering overachiever Hélène Caniac as she drags job-quitting out of the “should I/shouldn’t I?” binary and into the real messy middle: privilege, self-worth, internalized hustle, and the sacred relief of finally giving yourself permission to want what you actually want.

    This episode isn’t a checklist for burnout fixes. It’s an unfiltered invitation to get intimate with your true motivations, interrogate the invisible rules you follow, and start diversifying your identity far beyond your job title or paycheck. Whether you’re plotting a grand escape, reeling from a layoff, or just lost in existential limbo—consider this your call to dig deeper (and laugh a little along the way).

    • Privilege, and the systems at play, shape every “should I quit?” conversation.

    • You might be trying to escape not your job, but a toxic internal narrative or work identity—don’t drag that baggage into your next gig.

    • Connecting with your real values, setting boundaries, and building a genuine support web matter way more than any resume line.

    • You are worthy, whether you’re employed, jobless, burnt out, or thriving. Period.

    • Your life isn’t meant to be reduced to a job title or KPIs. Diversify your fulfillment—today.

    Ready to quit—or not quit—on your terms? Unpack, laugh, and reclaim your choice (and your joy) with Hélène.
