Breaking the Spell is a podcast exploring how systems of power and control shape our lives — from birth to death and everything in between — and how we reclaim freedom through embodied truth.
Through solo reflections and conversations, this space examines how narratives are formed, how bodies are conditioned, and how dissent becomes fragmented — and asks what it might look like to unite dissent without collapsing complexity.
This is not a space for ideology or certainty. It’s a practice of seeing clearly, listening to the body, and remembering what we’ve been trained to forget.
Hosted by Jen Ballew.

✨ Soul Philosophy for Holding Both Knowing and Unknowing
I am a vessel for truth and a student of mystery.
I honor the moments when deep knowing rises within me —
a remembering older than this lifetime, a certainty born not of logic, but of spirit.
This is the gnostic flame within me:
the part of me that touches the divine directly, beyond proof, beyond doubt.
And I honor the moments when I bow to the vastness I cannot name —
when I recognize that the Infinite can never be contained in words, concepts, or certainty.
This is the agnostic humility within me:
the part of me that knows I am small before the Great Mystery.
I am not trapped between these states.
I am dancing between them —
letting revelation and reverence be my rhythm.
Knowing when to trust my inner sight.
And knowing when to fall silent before the Unknown.
I am both gnostic and agnostic,
because truth is both a fire in my heart
and a vastness beyond my grasp.
And this, too, is sacred.

Shame in the body -
One of the most difficult emotions to be with.
It lingers and slithers…
It’s heavy
It’s potent
So im going to choose to be with my shame. The shame I hold in my body.
I am going to feel it and I am going to hold space for myself to work through it.
It makes me sick. I don’t want to be with it. I want to escape it. I hate it.
I don’t want to be with it.
But I’m choosing to be with it. For a moment here.
To be with my shame. Oh it’s enough to consume me.
I can choose to also release it.
I don’t have to hold onto it.
I don’t have to identify with it. I can feel it and release it. I can move it out of the body. I can create a ceremony to release it.
I can choose to have compassion for it. Understanding for it.
I don’t want to carry it with me any longer.
It’s very painful. I can feel it within so much of my body. I want to cry.
But I can be strong with it. I can not let it consume me.
I’m tired of waking up with this pit in my stomach. The feeling of doom and gloom all around me. Not wanting to face it all. Not wanting to be with it all.
And yet I know that I must be with it. To witness it and witness myself within it.
To be beyond it and to build and birth new life without it.

Great video on toxic positivity regarding the physical body and what can be seen “out there”.

When you can’t read the data from a higher understanding or light. You would not have been able to interpret it. These things ARE happening. So as not to be in fear but be aware and make the right choices for yourself and those you share space with.
