When "Everything Happens for a Reason" Hurts. Get the Spiritual Perspective

We’ve all been there.

You’re going through something hard.

And someone hits you with:

“Everything happens for a reason.”

Or…

“Stay positive vibe.”

Or…

“You just need to let it go.”

And in that moment, instead of feeling seen, you feel… dismissed.

Like your pain didn’t get the memo that we’re all supposed to be enlightened now.

In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, we’re talking about bypassing—specifically, how to recognize it without becoming the bypasser yourself.

Because here’s the thing:

Sometimes, people really are avoiding responsibility or emotions by sounding “spiritual.”

But other times, we’re just projecting our discomfort with how they’re processing something.

It’s a tricky balance.

So how do you know the difference?

And what do you do when someone else’s attempt at perspective just makes you want to scream?

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why some “wise” advice can actually keep people stuck
• The hidden reason we’re so quick to call others out
• What to do instead when bypassing might be happening

This one’s not about shaming anybody.

It’s about getting more clear and more free—in your own lane.
