Restore the Real

The Chains we mistake for God

Dr. Randy Michaux opens up about one of the most personal and powerful awakenings of his life. This episode explores the subtle, often invisible chains we inherit—the beliefs that tell us our worth is tied to perfection, performance, and fear. Through a transformative journey with plant medicine, Dr. Randy confronts the inner programming that made him confuse religious obligation with divine love.

What if your idea of God was actually rooted in fear, not love? What if you were never meant to earn grace—but simply remember it was always yours?

From psychedelic journeys to childhood religious trauma, this episode is raw, honest, and deeply healing. It’s about letting go of shame, shedding the masks of performance, and finally embracing the truth: you are already enough.

Key Takeaways

  • Fear often hides behind the mask of faith.
  • The drive to “be good enough” can be inherited trauma, not divine guidance.
  • Plant medicine unlocked a profound shift from striving for love to receiving it.
  • God and religion are not the same—and separating them can be liberating.
  • The true self doesn’t have to perform. It just is—like a forest.
  • Healing begins when we stop chasing worth and start accepting our wholeness.
