From Fitness to Formation | What ‘Wellness Culture’ Gets Wrong About Wholeness

Description

Modern wellness culture promises transformation—if we just track the right metrics, perfect the right routines, and optimize ourselves into enlightenment. But in the rush to biohack our way to better lives, we often miss the deeper truth: wholeness isn’t a performance. It’s a practice.

In this episode of …We Have a Spiritual Problem, we explore the limits of wellness culture, the commodification of health, and the cost of confusing productivity with presence. From spiritual bypassing to toxic self-help mantras, we unpack why real transformation requires formation, not just performance—and why rituals matter more than routines.

This is a conversation for anyone who’s ever felt exhausted by the pressure to improve, and hungry for something more meaningful than metrics.Watch/Listen to this episode and others in their entirety where you get your podcasts:Please, support ‘…We Have a Spiritual Problem’ by hitting the ‘like’ button, subscribing/following the podcast, and sharing with a friend.
