The app for independent voices
Hey Friends, I’m here of Substack, and here is why I decided to leave MSNBC and go 100% independent with all my content.
Evangelicalism had way more fear baked into it than we realized—fear of “the world,” fear of getting it wrong, fear of hell.
So much of what we were taught—evangelism, behavior modification, even Bible study—wasn’t about encountering the beauty, peace, and radical love of God. It was about defending against an enemy.
We weren’t learning how to love—we were learning how to fight. And now, actual empathy gets treated as a threat.
It’s heartbreaking. But I think more people are starting to wake up to it.

Conditional self-forgiveness is a doorway to intense suffering. Conditional self-forgiveness can lead us to lower energy and heightened emotional pain in:
Our professional lives
Our relationships with others
Our journey as spiritual students
The only way to make it all stop is a posture of innocence, and reminding our selves that our mistakes are just as innocent as everyone else’s.
Substack is the only platform not currently owned by a billionaire, and I have full editorial control over my content.
It’s why I’m here. Thank you all for joining me.

Hey guys. Sorry if you got a notification I had a video up. I opened a blaster of illusions and I somehow recorded it in slow motion making an 8 minute video 49 mins. I feel dumb. I’ll post “my hits” as soon as my daughter wraps up her basketball season. They are currently 0-7. Will they win the final game? I’m taking action on the game now. I’ll have a pod up later for my payers.

The Narcissist’s Playbook #1: The Guilt Weapon
It’s never their fault.
You set a boundary? You’re selfish.
You call out their behavior? You’re cruel.
You pull away? How could you do this to me?
They don’t take responsibility—they hand it to you.
Suddenly, you’re the one apologising. You’re the one making it right. You’re the one carrying the weight of their choices like it was yours to begin with.
And the worst part? It works.
Because you’re a good person. Because you care. Because you don’t want to be the villain in someone’s story.
But here’s the truth: setting boundaries isn’t betrayal. Refusing to be manipulated isn’t cruelty. Walking away isn’t a crime.
Let them feel their own guilt. It was never yours to hold.
See you next Wednesday for the next page of The Narcissist’s Playbook.
With love,
Salwa
