Rabbit Hole Reflections with Lisa

UNMASKED HEALING | Dani Murrell on Spiritual Addiction, Raw Awakening & Reclaiming Truth

Lisa Van Slyke Season 2 Episode 18

Could your healing journey be another mask you’re wearing?

What if the rituals, meditations, and sacred affirmations were just a spiritual costume—hiding the very wounds they claim to heal?

This week on Rabbit Hole Reflections, Lisa sits down with Dani Murrell for a piercing, powerful dialogue on spiritual bypassing, emotional addiction, and the high cost of performative healing. Together, they unravel what it means to perform healing, why softness matters in the middle of shame storms, and how motherhood, loss, and truth-telling exposed the truths she was never taught to name.

This isn’t curated spirituality—it’s the part no one talks about: the messy middle, the unfiltered truth beneath the ‘healed’ facade.

INSIDE THIS EPISODE:

  • The emotional addiction of looking healed while falling apart
  • Spiritual bypassing disguised as personal growth
  • Releasing the pressure to “perform” your transformation
  • Why raw truth trumps curated progress
  • How grief, surrender, and divine connection cracked Dani wide open
  • What authentic awakening actually requires
