What if you’re already perfect — but you just forgot? In this real, raw, and hilarious conversation, Michael and Spanish talk about what happens when you stop waiting for someone (or something) to “take the wheel” and start showing up in your own life. From spiritual Instagram gurus to late-night meditations in the backyard, this episode dives into the hard truths, the divine whispers, and the personal patterns that just won’t go away until you finally pay attention. We talk God, ego, spiritual practice, and what it really means to change. Plus, Michael shares how his meditations have become out-loud conversations with the universe — and why that actually works. If you've ever questioned your path or felt like life was trying to teach you the same lesson again and again… this one's for you. This isn’t about religion. It’s about remembering who you are — and reclaiming the driver’s seat. 🧠 Key Takeaways Stop outsourcing your life to “Jesus take the wheel” — it’s time to drive. Repeating patterns are often the universe saying, “you missed a spot.” Spirituality isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence and remembering. Speaking out loud to a higher power can be powerful and grounding. You were created perfect — now reverse engineer your way back to it. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Jesus, take the backseat: we're driving now 00:25 – Spiritual influencers and the message of 2024 01:14 – The universe repeating lessons until we listen 02:09 – Higher power: God, intuition, the universe? 03:03 – Michael’s backyard meditations and real talk with the divine 04:02 – Reading scripture… and it actually hitting different 05:01 – Sound in meditation and starting with raw emotion 05:44 – "What if you're already perfect?" 06:59 – You are not your memories — you are what you can do 07:28 – Starting fresh from the belief that you were created perfect 🔖 25 Hashtags #MensMentalHealth #SpiritualJourney #FaithAndHealing #PodcastClips #LetsGetReal #JesusTakeTheWheel #HigherPower #MeditationPractice #SelfHealing #SpiritualGrowth #InnerWork #YouArePerfect #EgoCheck #EnergyHealing #MindfulnessMatters #ShadowWork #RealTalk #SelfDiscovery #LetGoAndGrow #WakeUpCall #MasculinityReimagined #ModernFaith #YouTubePodcast #PurposeDrivenLife #AuthenticLiving ❤️ Follow Let's Get Real everywhere! 🔔 SUBSCRIBE to Let's Get Real for Updates and Surprises ✅ Instagram: @soul_spanish ✅ Instagram: @iammichaelsharkey ✅ TikTok: @iammichaelsharkey "Let's Get Real" is a weekly, interactive live talk show for guys on 102.5 FM in Tampa Bay.
