In this episode, we unpack a powerful listener question: Can students also become gatekeepers in spiritual spaces?
From mentorship secrets to withheld resources, we explore where "healthy boundaries" end—and where scarcity, secrecy, or ego may begin.
This isn't a call-out episode—it's an invitation to look deeper at how we share, protect, and pass on spiritual knowledge. We talk transparency, reciprocity, cultural protection, and why some teachings are guarded for good reason.
In This Episode, We Explore:
- Gatekeeping vs. Boundaries: How to tell whether someone is protecting themselves—or protecting exclusivity.
- Scarcity and Insecurity: The hidden fears behind withholding teachers, tools, or lineage.
- Reciprocity in Community: When sharing is medicine—and when it must come with respect and responsibility.
- Cultural Protection: Why some teachings must be guarded to preserve tradition and fight colonization.
- Business Spaces: What happens when entrepreneurs gatekeep strategy?
- Personal Accountability: What to do when someone else's secrecy triggers something in us.

Hello Danielle, thank you for your podcast! I’ve been a listener for years. I appreciated the conversation of this episode and was curious about a hummed tune that came on at 30:04. It was three notes with the third being drawn up then down. Did you also hear that as you were speaking? Was it music in the background? The sound did give me goosebumps so I just had to ask. I love everything you and your team are providing with Spirit School. Ya’ll are amazing! -Abi
