After focusing on ground level psychological foundations this year, I return to the deeply spiritual aspect of this path and the importance of an integrated approach.

I discuss energy clearing, the path of divine union as the move towards spiritual wholeness (NOT a romantic relationship, as it’s commonly referred to) and much more.

My work has not been traditional therapy for years. It is a blend of grounded psychology, shadow work, trauma healing, but also taking it to the spiritual heights of what is possible through relationships and our human experience. I weave long-form breathwork in specifically as a way to access altered states, talk about psychedelics and microdosing, and how we’re all being called into a balancing act between the linear and non-linear.

There’s also some overall updates on what’s happening, our next group program, in person retreats, my collaboration with my partner Joel Schafer, and much more.

Would love to hear any insights, reflections, or questions in the comments as always!

There’s much unfolding very deeply on this path as I live this work through me and continue to teach and serve at my own edge of embodiment of this work, as an imperfect human with a simultaneous devotion to the new paradigm and the truth of what is possible.

About me:

My name is Leigh-Anne LoPinto, and I’m a psychologist and breathwork teacher specializing in spiritual relationships. I help people who are done with repeating the same patterns over and over again, and want love and connection built on a healthy, stable foundation.

My clients tend to struggle with insecure attachment, codependency, and a more passive style of communication. They tend to settle for subpar relationships, put others on pedestals, and have difficulty with boundaries.

We work on healing all of this in order to step into incredible, healthy and happy relationships - all the way to the heights of spiritual partnership and true divine union.

“One of the hallmarks of disturbed characters (narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths) is their pathological lack of shame.”

- George Simon, Character Disturbance

Most people lump shame into one thing and think that it's all bad, all of the time. This couldn't be further from the truth. In this episode, I share the critical difference between healthy shame and toxic shame. And how missing the boat with this has led to the rise of narcissism across the board.

In today’s episode, I get really honest and cut to the chase, sharing who’s right for this path and who it might not be the best fit for.

Here are some attributes that I look for in my clients, and in people who are best suited for this path:

They resonate with the path of relationships that I outline, and are excited at the possibility of walking it. They typically feel very aligned with it, like it’s part of their destiny.

At the same time, they don’t romanticize it, and know that it’s going to bring stuff up.

(One of the biggest myths about conscious relationships is that somehow they’re all rainbows and butterflies.)

We don’t spiritually bypass on this path, in fact it’s meant to be relational shadow work.

My people are ready and willing to see their blind spots. This can be uncomfortable, but is true freedom.

I often say that I’m not in service to people at the level of ego, but in service to people at a soul level. I have compassion for the ego, but will not prop it up.

My people have a growth mindset, a fundamental understanding that life is here as a school for us, and we’re here to learn some things.

This requires humility, knowing that, “Hey, i don’t know everything, but i’m willing to learn.”

And, this realization does not trigger shame inside of them. They get it, knowing it’s the human experience.

They know that seeing and accepting their weak areas is actually empowerment, because as they lean in, they can get stronger and more whole. Life becomes more balanced and better all around.

This ties into personal responsibility. Are you willing to take responsibility for your subconscious, the thing that’s actually creating your reality?

My people also know that healing is not linear. Sometimes we need to revisit things from multiple angles, especially our core wounds. (This relates to Jung’s concept of circumambulation.)

They are open to a truly holistic view of healing: psychological, spiritual, energetic, somatic.

My people are committed and aren’t going to run away when things get hard.

They are able to communicate openly if something doesn’t feel good, and practice open communication.

They’re willing to be empowered and take what I give them and run with it, putting it into practice, rather than giving all their power away, and expecting me to do the work for them.

Lastly, my people truly see this work as an investment in themselves and everyone around them.

It’s an investment in time, money, and energy, and yet ultimately it is an investment in your soul.

I match all of these things, and it’s really interesting for me to read back this list, because most of it is just my standards in relationships.

Lots of love to you all, and if you want to join The Visionaries, doors stay open until Monday, May 4, 2026 at 9:00 pm Pacific time.
