What if the version of you that you’ve been trying to fix was already whole this entire time? What if the endless journaling, the shadow work, the inner child workshops, the breathwork retreats, and the constant quest to “do the work” have actually become the very thing keeping you from stepping into your true power? What if the real breakthrough isn’t another modality, but a remembrance of what was always there?

In this deeply activating episode, intuitive energy worker and quantum philosopher Gabi Kovalenko reveals why so many intelligent, self-aware people remain stuck in the same loops no matter how much work they do on themselves. She explains why coherence across every dimension of your being matters more than raising your vibration, why the feminine energy rising on the planet right now cannot be ignored, and why wholeness was never something you had to earn. It was your birthright all along.

This is a conversation for anyone who has been on a spiritual path for years and still feels like something is missing, for anyone who senses they are meant for more but cannot seem to break through. Because the answer was never outside of you. It lives in the space between the notes, in the stillness between breaths, and in the quiet knowing you have been trying to think your way back to.

The Woman Who Never Needed a Script

Gabi Kovalenko didn’t choose this path. It chose her. From a young age, she found herself writing about themes of intuition, self-awareness, and the deeper questions of existence, channelling wisdom that seemed to flow through her rather than from her. She never uses a teleprompter. She never scripts a video. When people ask whether she is using AI or reading from notes, the answer is always the same: the wisdom comes from embodiment, not preparation.

“It more flowed from a place of not getting in the way of this energy and consciousness that’s trying to come through me,” Gabi explains. Originally drawn to traditional medicine, she quickly grew disillusioned with the limitations of conventional approaches and discovered that true transformation operates through subtle energy and the deeper root causes that mainstream systems often overlook.

The Trap Nobody Talks About

Gabi names a pattern that millions of people are caught in without realising it: the glamourisation of the healing journey. Shadow work, she says, is necessary. Looking into the eyes of the pain body and understanding your roots is part of the process. But staying lodged in those layers is where people stagnate.

“It’s kind of like an obsession with going through the healing or relating to the pain body and sometimes even glamourising that part of the spiritual journey, which can keep somebody in victim consciousness and slow down the ignition of their true purpose.”

Her alternative is coherence: aligning not just mentally, not just physically, not just spiritually, but across every dimension of your conscious experience simultaneously. When even one layer is excluded, the subconscious manifests circumstances to bring attention to whatever remains unresolved.

The Fire That Cannot Be Contained

The conversation turns to the collective shift taking place right now, particularly for women. With Saturn and Neptune moving into Aries and the energy of the fire horse year igniting action, Gabi believes this is a juncture point where women who have been dwelling, stagnating, and feeling suppressed are being called to reclaim their power.

“You can’t wait for permission anymore from anybody else. You can’t wait for people to apologise that inflicted the pain. You can’t hope for partners to change. And you can’t wait for anybody to do this work for you.”

She also offers essential guidance for empaths, introducing the concept of a semi-permeable field. Rather than being energetically wide open and vulnerable to depletion, empaths can learn to maintain deep compassion while preserving their own energetic sovereignty through radical self-empathy and intentional boundary setting.

About Gabi Kovalenko

Gabi Kovalenko is a transformational thought leader, modern philosopher, and author of Falling Up. She integrates principles of noetic science, quantum physics, and positive psychology to reveal the power of consciousness and potentiality within all of life. Trained as a holistic healthcare practitioner and currently pursuing a Ph.D. in natural medicine, Gabi’s passion lies in inspiring a fresh awareness of life by disarming limiting beliefs and igniting a paradigm shift towards joy, abundance, and freedom.

Key Takeaway

You were never broken. The healing journey was never meant to become your identity. When you stop treating yourself as a project to fix and start generating coherence across every layer of your being, something extraordinary happens. The pendulum stops swinging. Peace sets in. And the version of you that was always whole begins to remember itself. Not through another course, another book, or another retreat, but through the radical act of trusting what already lives inside you.
