Description

I recently came across a post on Instagram of some spiritual thought leader telling people, in a very aggressive tone, that they need to let go of their desires in order to manifest them. It’s such a toxic cycle of preaching the power of our minds to create reality while simultaneously telling people they need to let go of the things they want in order to get them. It doesn’t make sense. Jess and I break down healthy and non-healthy ideas of what detachment could mean.

Then, I speak with Columbian - French - Canadian Drag Queen Adriana. Fresh of the hells of DragCon and that little incident during the season 2 panel, I talk to her about her journey to drag, what it was like auditioning and making it on the show, the filming process and yes the drama with her fellow castmates. It was such a fun convo!

The Superficial Spirit is a podcast that explores how pop culture affects our spiritual experiences and seeks to uncover unconventional ways people experience the divine… Every episode explores a different area of spirituality including tarot, crystals, psychics, manifesting, plant medicine and modern new-age trends. In the podcast, we ask questions like is modern spirituality a cult? Is Ayahuasca really that profound? Are psychics and tarot even real? What about fame, money, sex and social media? How do they affect our spirituality? Can the superficial really be profound? Ultimately, we believe in one thing: spirituality is real but the tools we use to define it may not be magical at all.

The Superficial Spirit is hosted by Peter Breeze, a former club kid and underground pop star who found success in queer clubs across Canada and America. He believes that his time as a fame-obsessed, hard-partying club-kid was a conduit for his spirituality and is passionate to connect with people who've also had unconventional or scandalous experiences exploring their own spirituality. Peter shamelessly explores the spiritual power of celebrities like Britney Spears, Courtney Love, Paris Hilton and The Real Housewives.

Guests include RuPaul's Drag Race Superstars, Reality TV stars, Scientists, witches, psychics, tarot readers, naturopathic doctors and regular people who've been affected by modern Spirituality.

Every episode includes a segment with @jessica.daily, Peter's Spiritual correspondent and a former reiki master and intuitive who's become passionate about sharing her own journey becoming disillusioned from the new age community. Jessica shares personal horror stories and hot takes about popular new age topics like tarot, psychics, mediums, ayahuasca retreats, crystals, ufo's and aliens.
