Sarah Saxby | The Soul Rehab Project™ Podcast

We’re called human beings, yet we live in a reality built entirely around doing.When the doing stops fitting, we’re told something is wrong with us: get therapy, take medication, find a hobby, learn to be more present. In this episode, Sarah talks about dropping the 50-hour workweek, the relationship, the consuming, and the posting, only to find the hours between waking and sleeping still waiting to be filled. Using the example of her son, who learns hands-on but is made to sit through classroom PowerPoints, she asks why we can see the mismatch so clearly for him and never for ourselves.Maybe nothing in you needs fixing, and it’s the reality that doesn’t fit.To bring Sarah into a stage or podcast, inquire about live in-person engagements.

Almost everyone is questioning the institutions running the world now, but almost no one questions the life they were handed.Who decided what life is, how it’s supposed to go, and that we’re here to make up for our sins? If the elite many people now say run the world also built the schools, medicine, religion, and nearly every institution that taught us what normal looks like, then trusting any of it doesn’t add up. We stop questioning where it gets uncomfortable, because being told how life works means we don’t have to change anything.You can’t question the people at the top and still believe everything they built.To bring Sarah into a stage or podcast, inquire about live in-person engagements.

All we really know is that we’re observing something, and everything else was handed to us.When someone says god came to them in a dream, all they know for sure is that they had a dream. When someone heals and we say god healed them, all we know is that they healed. The same goes for life itself. From the moment we’re born, we’re told that what we’re experiencing is called life, and we’re handed a script for it: school, marriage, kids, work, debt, retirement, and then death. This episode asks who handed us that script. If something did give us life, it may not be the loving, all-knowing god we were taught to believe in. It may be whatever runs this reality, the one where tragedy can take everything at any moment while we’re told to stay positive.Maybe it’s time to step all the way back and ask who told us this was life.To bring Sarah into a stage or podcast, inquire about live in-person engagements.

We keep waiting for something outside to fix things so we never have to change ourselves.In this episode, I break down how waiting for new leadership, open contact, a collapse, or a sign in a dream all serve the same purpose: keeping us comfortable. Even the voice you hear in meditation or the message that comes in a dream is still outside of you, and you’re the one deciding it was divine.The truth isn’t coming, because it’s already here, covered up by your comforts.To bring Sarah into a stage or podcast, inquire about live in-person engagements.

We’re furious about corrupt leaders, but we’ve never been angry about the reality that allows us to lose everything in an instant.We pray, practice gratitude, work harder, buy bigger houses, and hope for new leaders who will wipe the slate clean and rebuild. We’ve been told we’re here because we sinned or made a mistake, and that tragedy is just God’s plan. But one phone call can still change your life forever, and none of what you built or replaced will matter.You can rearrange the furniture all day long, but you’re still a sitting duck until you stop agreeing to the terms.Bring Sarah into a stage or podcast, inquire about live in-person engagements.
