Description

Ep. 3 Amanda & Kristy tackle the pushback on spiritual shortcuts—can growth be joyful and authentic? They break down the difference between healthy acceleration and bypassing, redefining what it means to take a shortcut on the spiritual path.


“I see a shortcut as having fun in my life and creating an existence where it doesn't feel like I'm working really hard all the time.”


In the quest for spiritual growth, shortcuts are often viewed with skepticism, seen as detours that bypass essential lessons. Amanda equates shortcuts to biohacking, emphasizing that if the end result is fulfilling, the path—whether a shortcut or a long journey—matters less than the transformation itself.


💡 “The difference between being on a shortcut and not is like the difference between sitting in the mud going, ‘Am I doing anything?’ or picking yourself up onto the path.”


Key Takeaways



  • Redefining Shortcuts: A shortcut is not about cheating; it's about choosing a joyful, efficient path that still offers the necessary learning experiences.


  • Spiritual Bypassing: True spiritual growth requires embodying knowledge rather than just superficially adopting the behaviors or practices of spirituality.


  • Navigating False Guides: Authentic spiritual guidance comes from sources that love you unconditionally and facilitate personal clarity.
