So, what if spirituality isn’t about ascending but actually about becoming more human? Plot twist: that’s the whole damn point.
In this episode, we dive into:
✨ Why we’re not here to suffer (shocking, I know).
✨ What The Good Place got right about the afterlife (and why knowing everything is actually boring as hell).
✨ Why neurodivergent humans are ahead of the game (and how society tried to gaslight us into thinking otherwise).
✨ How spirituality and humanity aren’t separate—they’re meant to be rooted together.
✨ And the big one: Why you’re here at this exact moment in time—because not just anyone gets the golden ticket to Earth School during a global shift.
Also, I may or may not compare life to a messed up Disney park, call out the universe for throwing us into a mystery dinner theater of existence, and casually remind you that we built this place—so maybe it’s time we fix it.
If you’ve ever wondered Why am I here?, Am I really meant to change the world?, or Wait, did she say she turned on a microwave with her mind?, this episode is for you.
🎧 Listen now, and let’s start questioning everything!
Your host, Erica, is a Quantum Healer, Intuitive Guide, and author of Teach Me to Forget (Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers). Raised on a steady diet of SNL, Scooby-Doo, and pizza rolls, she brings a side-eye for authority and a hunger for deeper truth. With a gift for decoding both human behavior and cosmic patterns, Erica makes spiritual insight both accessible and hilarious.

Ep. 6 The Hitchhiker's Guide to: Wait, There Are No Rules in Earth School?
What if I told you there are no rules? Like, none. Just you, your journey, and whatever beautifully chaotic mess you choose.
In this episode, we dismantle the idea that spirituality (or life, really) has an instruction manual. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t. Sure, there are plenty of guides, courses, and self-proclaimed experts (including, ahem, me), but at the end of the day, you make the rules—or better yet, you break them.
Let's go on another adventure down the rabbit hole!
We'll explore:
✨ Why spirituality isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience (despite what TikTok says).
✨ That time my spirit guides called me out for, “BTW, there’s no rules.” (rude, but fair.)
✨ Why synchronicities, intuitive signs, and random targeted ads might actually be the universe talking to you.
✨ And can't forget our fave topic, Earth School—because if there’s no rules, why does everything feel like a final exam?
So, if you’ve ever felt trapped by expectations, woo woo fatigue, or your own rulebook, this one’s for you. Let’s throw out the outdated handbook, and maybe—just maybe—book that damn trip to Greece.
No rules, just vibes.

Ep. 8 The Hitchhiker's Guide to: The Masks of the Generational Curse Breakers of the World
You ever get something amazing, like your dreams coming true, and instead of pure joy, your brain goes “oh no, what if this gets taken away?” Yeah. Fun times. Turns out, survival mode doesn’t just clock out when things get better. It just puts on a different mask. 🎭
In this episode, we’re cracking open the whole shame/masks/generational trauma can of worms, because why not go all in?
Being known vs. being seen—one is a performance, the other is terrifyingly real
The family secrets & buried shame that keep generational curses alive
Why sudden success can feel like a setup for disaster (looking at you, lottery winners & overnight celebrities)
Shadow work: Turns out, the goal isn’t to get rid of the dark parts of you—it’s to integrate them
The power of being believed—and how just one person can change everything
Millennials, Gen X, and Generation Jones, congrats! You won the Golden Ticket to breaking cycles (no refunds, sorry)
How shame literally rewires the brain—and why we’re undoing it now
Generational trauma doesn’t get to win. Not on our watch.

Ep. 7 The Hitchhiker's Guide to: the Willy Wonka golden ticket of life in this timeline
Hello, and welcome to Hitchhiker's Guide to Humanity. Today, we're talking about how the whole point of spirituality is really to find your humanity. Okay, so the whole idea that we are here to discover something in the spiritual realm, it's not actually what it is. These are, again, learning tools like even ascended masters, the divine, all of this, all within us. The whole purpose
