On today's episode, we welcome the profoundly insightful Christina Lopes. She takes us on a journey through the intricate and often tumultuous path of spiritual awakening, sharing her own transformative experiences with a sincerity that is both moving and inspiring. Christina, a former clinician and physical therapist specializing in neuro-pediatrics, had a life that seemed ordinary on the surface. However, beneath this exterior, she harbored a profound spiritual sensitivity and a lineage of powerful healers, particularly from her maternal grandmother, who was known as the village witch in her hometown. Christina's spiritual journey began in earnest in 2013, triggered by a series of personal upheavals, including the end of her marriage. This period of crisis catalyzed her awakening, pushing her to confront deep-seated traumas and fears that had plagued her since childhood. As a child, Christina was extraordinarily sensitive to spiritual energies, often tormented by what she now identifies as shadow entities. These experiences, coupled with the traumatic environment due to her father’s illness, filled her early years with anxiety and fear, making her wary of her own spiritual gifts. Why, one might ask, did Christina fear opening the door to her spiritual potential? The answer lies in the intense and often dark energies she encountered as a child. She describes these shadow entities as lower-level energies that feed off fear and thrive in environments of trauma and stress. Christina recounts how, even with the protective rituals performed by her grandmother, the fear and anxiety remained until she learned to harness her own power and light. “There is no energy stronger than me,” she would repeat, a mantra that became a cornerstone of her healing and empowerment.
