Therapist and host, Malisa Hepner, sits down with Dean Graves, author, podcaster, mental health counselor, consciousness researcher, messenger, to explore the deeper purpose behind the experiences we resist. Together, they uncover how contrast, discomfort, and the moments we wish away often become our greatest teachers—guiding us toward clarity, self-acceptance, and alignment with what we truly value.

Every experience, even the ones we wish had never happened, holds a mirror to our becoming. Dean reminds us that the things we dislike are not detours—they're divine direction. Through contrast, we discover the contours of our truth; through resistance, we remember our power to choose differently. Life's uncomfortable moments are not punishments but invitations—to refine our preferences, deepen our awareness, and create from a place of knowing who we are and what truly matters.
