BLUE WIRE
About this episode

Tori dives into the concept of life as a series of initiations, akin to challenges in a video game, that propel us into new levels of personal growth and understanding. She shares her personal experiences and offers guidance on identifying the various forms that initiations can take in our lives.

Tori walks us through her own initiation story, unveiling the raw and vulnerable aspects of spiritual evolution. She discusses the "thunder clap" – the moment when we are abruptly confronted with the need for change – and the role avoidance can play in hindering our progress.

Recognizing that initiations are a shared human experience, Tori reminds us that we are not alone in our struggles. She offers insights on how to identify whether we might be going through an initiation ourselves.

Tori provides practical tools and strategies to navigate these challenging times, helping us embrace the process of spiritual rebirth. By acknowledging our shared experiences and fostering self-awareness, we can learn to approach life's initiations with courage and resilience.
