About this listen
When faith becomes an excuse, someone has to say “enough.” In this round-table discussion —recorded April 30, 2025—Malcolm Traverse sits with Greg, Devon, and Swag to pry open the glossy shell of “love-and-light” culture and ask the harder question: Is your spirituality actually helping you grow, or just hiding the mess?
Across laughter, side-eyes, and a few black-church memories, we wrestle with:
- what “spiritual bypassing” really means—and why “everything happens for a reason” can be a velvet-lined cop-out;
- using faith as a launchpad and a crutch: where’s the line?;
- the uneasy marriage of mental health, trauma, and Sunday-morning platitudes;
- comfort food, diabetes, and the spiritual excuses we make for skipped doctor visits;
- reclaiming accountability—whether it’s therapy, a gym membership, or finally checking your blood pressure.
Expect sharp humor, unapologetic sidebars, and a challenge to test every cherished belief for its real-world utility. If your practice doesn’t make you kinder, healthier, and more present, maybe it’s just costume jewelry for the soul.
Listen in, get uncomfortable, and—above all—keep it useful.
