Why Your High-Vibe Practice Isn’t Working

Why isn’t all the inner work translating into real, lasting change?

Kim Charlson channels her personal guide, Monty, to explore why striving to stay “high vibe” can actually keep you stuck and what truly creates sustainable transformation instead.

This conversation builds on the popular episode of feeling stuck despite doing the work, and gently reframes where real change happens. Rather than focusing on peak spiritual moments, Monty introduces the concept of your energetic base: the baseline state you return to in everyday life, from brushing your teeth to driving to work, handling conflict, or moving through emotion.

You’ll hear why transformation isn’t created by forcing expansion or maintaining elevated states, but by cultivating energetic consistency, allowing contraction, emotion, and processing to move through you, while repeatedly returning to a grounded, aligned base. Over time, it’s this steady return that raises your baseline and prevents old patterns and energetic blocks from reforming.

In this episode, you’ll explore:

• Why “high-vibe” living often leads to burnout or repeated patterns
• The difference between processing energy and embodying change
• How everyday habits and perspectives recreate or dissolve energetic blocks
• Why contraction is a natural and necessary part of expansion
• How to gently raise your energetic baseline through awareness and consistency
• Reflective questions to help you identify the energy you’re truly living from

This episode offers channeled insight, grounded guidance, and compassionate perspective to help you stop chasing transformation and start embodying it, one ordinary moment at a time.
