Teal says if she had it to do over again, she wouldn't have shared the truth/her story about being ritually abused, etc. She says it's because people tend to focus on the details of her trauma rather than the 'content' she shares. To me that sounds like an ego problem on her end. Of course people are getting the message in your content. Don't be an ass.
She says people "aren't ready to talk about extra terrestrials" or details about "reincarnation"... and I'm sitting here like, what? Really? Because I think "people" have been "talking about" it since before you were even born, sugartits.
It's not that I don't believe her story, or agree with a lot of the stuff she says... but I think she's being a little bit defeatist about it.
10:45 see I believe there SHOULD be alternative psychological treatments and 'methodologies' employed because the old textbook stuff is a load of hoopla. I don't find Teal at fault in any capacity regarding the woman who committed suicide. The lady was seeing a psychiatrist AND Teal. She was clearly very mentally ill and it had nothing to do with Teal. And actually, 12:15 sounds like the makings of a traumatic experience FOR TEAL. I feel sorry for HER in this matter quite frankly.
14:40 she's right about how they handle suicidal people re: psychologists... they send people to the hospital. They get their phone taken, they get their belongings taken, and they're basically prisoners for however many days. It causes isolation and even more depression.
16:05 she's totally right. I don't disagree with her strategies re: dealing with suicidal people. Again, there need to be innovative approaches to mental health. The old shit isn't working. I respect Teal for persevering through the onslaught of hate toward her approaches. Her methods sound pretty good to me.
18:15 my rebuttal to her statement "people commit suicide when they 'feel alone' so why don't we make them feel less alone" would be, good luck with that. You can feel alone in a room full of people, and at the end of the day, it's a choice to get out of that dark place. It's a CHOICE to not feel alone. It is. But I think the expanded version of what Teal is saying with this is that if we addressed the emotional reasons (trauma etc.) behind why these people feel suicidal, that feeling of aloneness would be mitigated.
20:00 she's right... money is a spiritual thing too. People being bitter over money is a spiritual block. People wanting others to not have any money is a spiritual block. It's selfishness.
21:42 ROFL she's right about that too.
33:22 wow that was like some shit outta Fight Club!!! You go, Teal!!!
56:00 she's so right re: fame and romantic relationships. Well said, Teal!!!
1:02:00 again Teal is basically bitching about being "ostracized" in her own field, and having to do it all herself because thanks to the rumors put out by her haters, other 'spiritual gurus' don't want to have her speak at their events. Why is she not past that whole hang up? I feel like this is a point she's using to make it seem like she gives a crap about those aspects... for the purpose of some kind of manipulation. She of all people should understand why she's encountering this dynamic. I just don't get it. It doesn't even feel like 'outcast' ego syndrome on her part, to me it just seems like she's... annoyed with something that shouldn't actually matter to her.
1:05:25 Teal isn't sounding intensely strong in herself right now. That's the rub. That's the smell. Like what the fuck Teal, what is wrong with you chicka? Snap the fuck out of it, LMAO! *shakes head* You're acting like a noob.
1:07:20 yeah it's tough that the haters used that info to drive a wedge between Teal and her current husband and his kids from another marriage. It's tough that they put him in a situation of choosing between her and them. But the thing is... AGAIN, you GOTTA expect that kind of shit. You just GOTTA expect it. Come on. And anyway, this will sound cold, but let's just be real about it... if things go south between Teal and her current husband, it's not like she's gonna be alone for long. All things must pass... *shrug*
1:08:20 re: the neighbors not wanting their kids to play over with Teal's kid... who freaking cares? Fuck the neighbors. Their kids probably suck anyway. And as far as haters calling the police etc. on Teal, well that's what happens when you're an 'internet celebrity' with your real name out there. It happens to way smaller fish than Teal. Again, come on. Just. Come on.
Teal needs to double the fuck down... that's what she needs to do.
1:11:50 amen to Teal about the school thing. You go to school to reinforce the (FAILING) system that society is built around. Fuck that noise. Why would we ever perpetuate that? Our generation and the next one coming up are the game-changers.
1:22:15 agreed, she's not a 'cult' at all. She's totally right about the foundational psychological reasons behind why she's technically not a cult. But because she's pretty, she's got a buttload of obsessors. That is the only way in which she resembles a cult in any capacity. And technically, that is not a cult.
1:27:20 Teal is right that we shouldn't fear sexual energy... it's a totally normal part of life. Teal can't help being sexual. A beautiful woman like Teal should be captured on camera as much as possible. Get it while it's good, baby!
1:34:43 Teal says that she has synesthesia, which is very interesting. She's basically the only super spiritual person I've heard discuss this, therefore she relates it to the ethereal world and being able to sense the typically unseen. This is something I think she should shed more light on, it's a fascinating subject and frankly it's a chance for her to attention divert from some of the more 'hardcore' aspects of her outreach, and bring attention to something under-discussed yet very important.
1:37:32 I bet Teal and I look pretty similar wandering around the airport. LMFAO!
1:43:24 Teal says she wants to infiltrate the 'mainstream' and reach people 'switching through the TV set'... umm, Teal, sweetie, TV IS FUCKING DEAD. ROFL!!! The INTERNET is the NEW TV. Keep making videos... that way when everyone who's left comes over here, you'll already have 'shows' out the ass for them to catch up on, and sweetie you know people love to binge. Teal is only 33, she should have caught on that the internet is the new hollywood, please fucking tell me she knows this. Facepalm.
And another thought, if the publishing company Teal is signed with doesn't want to publish her stuff because of 'controversy' THEN SHE NEEDS TO FUCKING SELF-PUBLISH, IT'S NOT FUCKING ROCKET SCIENCE.
1:47:00 well said, Teal! Best 'o luck to ya, sweetie!
