Episode 92: The 5 Stages of Deconstruction: What Happens When Faith Falls Apart and Comes Back Together
Deconstruction isn't a crisis of faith, it's a process, and it turns out that process has stages. this week jaisa and rachael walk through the five researched stages of faith deconstruction and reconstruction, and share where they've each landed. It starts with the catalyst, the wound or question or piece of biblical history that first makes you pause. then questioning and research, where the anxiety of "is any of this true?" lives. then grief, because deconstruction really does cost you certainty, community, and the version of god you were handed. then deconstruction proper, where you decide what stays and read scripture through the fourfold lens the early church used. and finally reconstruction or release, and the question underneath all of it: what does faith look like when it's chosen, not inherited? Wherever you are in it, you're exactly where you're supposed to be. Go deeper on the fourfold lens: we break it down through the hot-button Christian topics in our ebook .

Episode 91: Mysticism, Empire, and Finding Our Way Back to Love w/ Joash P Thomas
Our friend Joash P. Thomas is back on Spirit Outspoken. He's a priest, a public theologian, and the author of The Justice of Jesus , and this conversation goes deep into mysticism, empire, and the parts of church history nobody taught us in Sunday school. We start with Mother Mary. Joash opens up about his own mystical experiences with her, and how becoming open to acknowledging the saints can be such a beautiful, supplemental expansion of our faith. From there we talk guardian angels, patron saints, and the communion of saints described in Hebrews 12. Then we go deeper into history. Joash walks us through the colonial roots of empire, including the surprising, colonial era origin of the phrase "the Great Commission," and why understanding that history frees us from the pressure to convert anyone to our way of thinking. The beauty in what he reveals brings us back to the whole point of the gospels, which is simply to love. If you've ever felt like your mysticism and your Christianity were at odds, or wondered where some of these teachings actually came from, this episode is for you. Topics covered: Mother Mary and mystical experience, guardian angels and patron saints, the communion of saints, the colonial history of empire and the Great Commission, and rediscovering love as the true point of the gospel.

Episode 90 Your Moon Sign Is Your Emotional Blueprint
In this episode, Jaisa and Rachael break down one of astrology's most misunderstood placements and why it might be the most important one you've never paid attention to. Your moon sign , who you are when the performance is over. When you're home. When nobody's watching. They start with the science. The moon pulls ocean tides. It raises and lowers the earth's crust by 30 centimeters. It shifts human sleep cycles, hormonal patterns, and psychiatric episodes. If the moon can do all of that to physical matter, what is it doing to the 60% water that makes up your body? Then Jaisa shares a stunning synchronicity. A divine appointment that literally stopped traffic to connect her with another cancer mom, and how her moon omens reading that same night explained every single moment of it in real time. From there they walk through all 12 moon signs. The core emotional need of each one. What it looks like when you're thriving in it. And what happens when you're not. You'll leave this episode knowing yourself in a completely different way. This is astrology as a tool for spiritual self-understanding. Not fortune-telling. Not witchcraft. Just a language, one that God can use to speak to you, if you let Him. In this episode: •The real science behind how the moon affects your body, your sleep, and your emotions •Jaisa’s story of divine intervention through a drawbridge in Duluth •The difference between your sun sign and your moon sign, and why the moon hits different •A full breakdown of all 12 moon signs: healthy, unhealthy, and what your core need really is •How understanding moon signs transforms your relationships, your parenting, and your self-compassion Find your moon sign: grab your birth date, birth city, and birth time and run a free birth chart at cafeastrology.com If you enjoyed this episode be sure to check out: Episode 62: Using Astrology & Numerology to Reflect and Grow Episode 82: How to Love and Care for Every Enneagram Type Support the show Join the Spirit 360!

Episode 89: The Human Biofield: Dr. Jason Yuan on Energy Healing, Cancer Research, and the Science Behind Laying on of Hands
Jaisa's son's tumor took up ninety percent of his chest. Seven days later, it was gone. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Jason Yuan, a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist who has spent years studying the human biofield, the energy field that modern science can measure but still can't fully explain. We break down a groundbreaking study from MD Anderson Cancer Center, where visualization based healing methods reduced cancer spread in mice by fifty percent, and talk about what that means for the future of medicine. We also explore the biblical roots of energy healing, including what Jesus may have meant by laying on of hands, and Jaisa shares her own story of watching her son's tumor disappear during his cancer treatment. This conversation sits right at the intersection of faith, science, and mysticism, and it might change how you think about healing. In this episode, we cover: What the human biofield is and how science is beginning to measure it The MD Anderson study on biofield therapies and pancreatic cancer cells The difference between the Bengston Healing Method, Reiki, acupuncture, and other energy healing practices Laying on of hands as one of the oldest recorded healing practices in history Jaisa's personal story of her son's cancer diagnosis and recovery How energy healing and Christian faith can coexist without contradiction About our guest: Dr. Jason Yuan is a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist specializing in integrative and functional medicine. He also practices and teaches biofield therapies, drawing on his own healing journey with chronic eczema to help others explore the connection between energy, consciousness, and health.

Episode 88: The "Moral Issues" That Masked Segregation
Abortion and homosexuality. If you grew up in conservative Christianity, you know these are the two issues. The ones that decide votes. The ones churches will not bend on. But what if neither issue started out as the point? This is part three of our series on the church’s role in building white supremacy in America. In part one, we traced colonization and slavery. In part two, we covered Jim Crow and the civil rights era. In this episode, we follow that same through line of racism forward to the political strategy that focused conservative Christians on abortion and homosexuality, in order to secure the conservative Christian vote and keep the right people in office to uphold segregation. This episode wraps up our current series on the Christian church’s historical role in building white supremacy in America. Topics covered: a recap of part one (colonization and slavery) and part two (Jim Crow and civil rights), the political strategy that focused conservative Christians on abortion and homosexuality, securing the conservative Christian vote, and how that vote was used to uphold segregation.

Episode 87: Jim Crow and the Pulpit: How the Church Preached Racism as God's Order
In part two of this series, Rachael and Jaisa walk through the comprehensive legal system of Jim Crow, the culture of lynching as a celebrated Christian community event, and the documented role of white evangelical leaders in opposing civil rights. We talk about Jerry Falwell Senior's 1958 sermon declaring racial integration a communist plot against God's design. We talk about Billy Graham privately urging Martin Luther King Jr. to slow the movement. And we trace how that same political base shifted from explicit segregation to a new moral framework built around abortion and homosexuality, one that secured the conservative vote without ever having to say the quiet part out loud. We're also talking about what's happening right now. ICE raids. Murdered activists. The white moderate who opposes injustice but opposes disruption more. And why silence has always been a form of consent. This is not a comfortable episode. It's a necessary one. In This Episode • Jim Crow as a comprehensive legal system, not just a social custom • Lynching postcards: how Christians documented and celebrated racial murder • Jerry Falwell Senior's 1958 segregation sermon and the formation of the Moral Majority • Billy Graham, the white moderate, and Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail • The throughline from Jim Crow to today's political landscape • Reincarnation, karma, and what a just God might actually require If you enjoy this episode, be sure to check out: Episode 71: Mayan Astrology Explained Episode 58: The 1946 Mistake That Changed Christianity - How "Homosexual" Entered the Bible Support the show Join the Spirit 360!

Episode 86: 1493: When the Church Gave Permission for Conquest and Slavery
What if the church didn't just fail to stop white supremacy, it helped build it? In part one of this two-part series, Rachael takes you back to the very beginning. Not the Civil War. Not Jim Crow. 1493. The year the church wrote the theological permission slip for conquest, colonization, and the dehumanization of entire peoples. This episode breaks down three things most Christians were never taught. The Doctrine of Discovery. The papal bulls that gave European Christian nations divine permission to claim any land inhabited by non-Christians. This wasn't fringe theology. It shaped everything that came after. The Curse of Ham. One misread passage in Genesis became the theological engine for chattel slavery. What the text actually says required ignoring the Bible entirely to make the distortion work. The Pro-Slavery Church. Respected, credentialed, mainstream pastors and entire denominations built a sophisticated Bible-based case for slavery. One denomination was founded in 1845 specifically to protect the right of slaveholders. It is still one of the largest in America today. This is not a story about bad people doing bad things. This is about a theological system that was carefully constructed, widely taught, and built into the institutions many of us grew up in.

Episode 85: BONUS EPISODE: The Playbook: Jesus, Healing and Human Potential w/ Charlie Goldsmith
What if the healing ministry of Jesus was never meant to stop with Him? In this special bonus episode, we sit back down with Charlie Goldsmith, world-renowned energy healer and star of The Healer, for a conversation that started after the cameras stopped rolling and turned into one of the most personally meaningful exchanges we have ever had on this show. Jaisa opens up about her son's tumor disappearing in seven days, the physical sensations she experienced during that time, and how this conversation finally gave her language for something she has carried for years. Together we explore the idea that what Jesus demonstrated was not exclusive to Him but a blueprint for human potential that the church may have unintentionally buried over centuries. Charlie also offers a fascinating reframe of forgiveness, original sin, and what Jesus was actually communicating through His healing ministry that cuts through centuries of religious interpretation and lands somewhere surprisingly freeing. In this episode, we explore: Why the healing ministry of Jesus was meant to be a blueprint, not a one-time event How Jaisa experienced an unexplained healing with her son and what that might mean The connection between energy healing, human potential, and Christian mysticism Why putting Jesus on a pedestal may have disempowered the very people He was trying to inspire What "the kingdom of God is within you" might actually mean for how we approach healing today This is a conversation that will expand your understanding of Jesus, of healing, and of the extraordinary potential that may already be living inside you.

Episode 84: From Fringe to Frontline: How Energy Healing is Being Legitimized w/ Charlie Goldsmith
What if healing was possible beyond the limits of conventional medicine? In this profound episode, we welcome Charlie Goldsmith, world-renowned energy healer and star of The Healer , for an honest soul-stirring conversation about his extraordinary gift and what it truly means for humanity. Charlie opens up about how his healing abilities first emerged, what actually happens during an energy healing session, and the spiritual dimensions of a practice that has left doctors, scientists, and patients speechless. We also dive deep into one of the most fascinating topics in health and consciousness: the placebo effect and what it reveals about our innate human ability to heal ourselves from within. But Charlie's vision goes far beyond his own practice. He is on a mission to identify the most talented healers in the world, build a network of vetted practitioners, and make that healing accessible and affordable to anyone right from their iPhone. In this episode, we explore: How Charlie discovered and developed his remarkable energy healing abilities What an energy healing session looks and feels like from the inside The incredible power of the placebo effect and our body's natural capacity to heal Why Charlie believes healing shouldn't be a privilege and what he's doing about it His mission to create a global accessible healing network available to everyone This is a conversation that will expand your sense of what's possible in healing, in consciousness, and in the unseen forces that shape our lives. 🎧 Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who is ready to open their mind.

Episode 83: The Sagittarius Full Moon, Releasing Old Beliefs & Expanding Into Truth
In this episode, Rachael and Jaisa discuss the upcoming Full Moon in Sagittarius on May 31 and why this particular energy may feel especially significant for those in the deconstruction and reconstruction process. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion, truth, questioning, wisdom, and exploration, making this a powerful time to reflect on the beliefs, identities, and narratives people may be outgrowing. They explore how this full moon invites people to stop playing small, seek deeper truth, and honestly examine what is no longer aligned spiritually, emotionally, and personally. For many reevaluating faith, spirituality, or the systems they were raised in, this energy can bring clarity, courage, and a deeper sense of inner knowing. Rachael and Jaisa also discuss how working intentionally with the rhythms of nature, like the moon, is not about worshipping creation, but about using what God already created as a sacred rhythm for reflection, release, prayer, and intentional living. Throughout scripture, the natural world is used as signs, seasons, symbols, and reminders of God’s presence, and for them, this practice simply creates intentional space each month to pause, reflect, release what is no longer serving them, and call in what they hope to cultivate. They also open up personally about what they themselves are releasing in this season, what they are making space for, and the honest realities of navigating growth and change. This conversation was originally recorded for the Spirit 360 community, but after Zoom failed to record the call despite promises that members would receive the replay, they decided to sit back down and re-record it. Once they did, they realized the conversation felt too meaningful not to share with everyone. This episode encourages listeners to reflect, release, expand, and step more fully into the life and truth they are being called toward.

Episode 82: How to Love and Care for Every Enneagram Type w/ Abbey Howe
Most of us are giving love the way we want to receive it. And for a lot of people, that's where connection quietly breaks down. This week, Rachael and Jaisa sit down with Enneagram expert Abbey Howe to talk about one of the most practical and deeply human questions we can ask: how do I actually show up well for the people I care about? Abbey walks through every Enneagram type and what each one genuinely needs to feel loved, safe, and cared for. This isn't surface-level personality talk. It's a real conversation about how each type is wired, what wounds they carry, and what kind of love actually lands for them. Whether you're trying to understand your partner, your friend, your kid, your parent, or yourself, this episode will shift how you see the people around you. Abbey brings both deep knowledge of Enneagram theory and a grounded, compassionate framework that makes it feel instantly applicable to your real relationships. The Enneagram, when used well, is a tool for transformation and compassion. It helps us stop asking why people aren't more like us, and start asking what they actually need. This conversation touches on emotional healing, how our core fears shape the way we give and receive love, and how understanding type can create more safety, more depth, and more grace in every relationship in your life.

Episode 80: Finding Her Voice: How Songwriting & Healing Led to True Faith w/ Alana Springsteen
This week, we sat down with country singer-songwriter Alana Springsteen for a raw, honest, and deeply personal conversation about growing up in the church, living as a people-pleaser, and what it actually takes to step into your own voice. Alana shares how, for much of her life, she shaped herself around expectations, becoming who others needed her to be, inheriting a version of faith that did not fully feel like her own. It was not until she started getting honest, doing the inner healing work, and allowing herself to question everything that something shifted. Through songwriting and healing, she did not just find her voice, she encountered a more authentic and grounded experience of God. We also talk about one of the most relatable tensions so many people face, how to stay connected to family members who do not agree with where you have landed. Alana shares what it has looked like to hold love, compassion, and boundaries at the same time, and how to honor your growth without losing the people who matter to you. Her upcoming album, I Hope This Helps, is a reflection of this journey, vulnerable, honest, and deeply human. This episode is for anyone who is ready to stop performing and start living from what is true.

Episode 77: The Faith, Friendship, & Evolution behind Spirit Outspoken
What does it actually look like to build something from nothing - fueled by friendship, faith, and a whole lot of courage? In this episode of Spirit Outspoken, Rachael and Jaisa are pulling back the curtain. No guest, no script - just the two of them settling in for an honest, heartfelt conversation about the journey behind this podcast and the ways it has changed them both. Jaisa opens up about a deeply moving experience on spring break - celebrating her son's eighth birthday after three years of navigating childhood cancer, and the breathtaking signs from God that reminded her that her prayers had truly been answered. From cranes circling a boat in the Dominican Republic to a rainbow appearing over her kids playing in the mud, this is experiential faith at its most real and most beautiful. From there, Rachael and Jaisa reflect on how Spirit Outspoken was born. A casual comment from Rachael's husband that somehow landed like a divine download, two women who each abandoned their own paths to answer a calling they couldn't ignore, and a wine-fueled planning session that almost got them into serious trouble right out of the gate. They get honest about the fear of being judged, what it's like to deconstruct your faith publicly, the moment they discovered the Gnostic Gospels, and why certainty might actually be the enemy of genuine spirituality. They also talk about what it means to do this work as best friends - the communication, the yin and yang, and why their friendship always comes first. This episode is a beautiful reminder that you don't have to have it all figured out to show up. You just have to be willing. In this episode, we explore: Signs, synchronicities, and God speaking through the unexpected The real origin story behind Spirit Outspoken Faith deconstruction and reconstruction in real time Why certainty shuts down spiritual growth What it's like to question Christianity publicly and catch heat for it Doing purpose-driven work with your best friend If you're newer here, this is the perfect place to start.

Episode 76: Plant Medicine, Quantum Physics & Jesus w/ Juan Galan Politi
In this episode of Spirit Outspoken , Jaisa and Rachael sit down with Juan Galan Politi, Instagram influencer and co-founder of the Mystic Misfit Society, to explore his profound spiritual awakening and transformation. Juan opens up about his shift from an ego-centered identity to a life guided by the teachings of Yeshua (Jesus), and the experiences that catalyzed that change. We dive into his journey with plant medicine and how those experiences expanded his perception of reality, spirituality, and the nature of consciousness. Juan shares how these moments became a turning point, inviting him into a more integrated, embodied understanding of faith. One of the most fascinating parts of this conversation is Juan’s innovative AI-generated template, a tool designed to help people read the Bible through a multidimensional lens. By weaving together scripture with insights from quantum physics, science, and mysticism, this framework offers a fresh, intellectually grounded way to explore the teachings of Jesus. If you’ve ever felt torn between science and spirituality, if you’re curious about expanded states of consciousness and their role in faith, or if you’re looking for a deeper, more expansive way to understand the message of Jesus-this episode will open your mind and invite you into a broader perspective.

Candice recently completed an in-depth research study examining the psychological effects of the Akashic Records as a healing modality, comparing outcomes to traditional Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The results were both compelling and thought-provoking, opening the door to a deeper conversation about the intersection of science, spirituality, and transformation.
