The Consensus of One: Breaking Free From External Validation w/ Corissa Saint Laurent

Episode 95 Published 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

We are taught that to be rational, our decisions must be backed by evidence and agreed upon by a majority. But in the mystical world, the majority does not rule, alignment does.

In this solo episode, Corissa explores the concept of the Consensus of One—the radical idea that you, in alignment with Source, constitute a majority. She shares personal stories of following the nudge, from the seemingly trivial impulse to redecorate an office to a life-saving hesitation on a street curb.

Corissa also gets vulnerable about the shadow side of relationships. She recounts a recent moment of jealousy regarding her husband's new podcast and how she used it as a mirror to heal a hidden part of herself. She breaks down the difference between doing what feels good and true spiritual orientation, and why we often demand our partners jump through hoops to fill voids only we can fill.

In this episode, she covers:

  • The Consensus Myth: Why we think we need permission to make changes, and why true rationality is simply alignment with your higher self.
  • The Hoop Jumping Trap: How Corissa realized she was subconsciously testing her partners to prove their worth, and how she broke that cycle in her marriage.
  • Small Moves, Big Impact: Why the decision to pause on a sidewalk can have as much weight as the decision to move to a new country.
  • The Office Space Fallacy: Deconstructing the idea that spiritual alignment just means doing nothing or hedonism, and how to tell the difference between intuition and escapism.
  • Shadow Work in Real Time: A raw look at how jealousy manifested in Corissa’s marriage and how she used it to identify a block in her own wholeness.
