In this episode of The Danette May Show, I’m sharing why the documentary Trust Me: The False Prophet stirred something so deep in me and why I felt called to open a larger conversation around belief systems, religious conditioning, control, and self-trust. As someone raised in the Mormon/LDS faith, I reflect on my own roots, my early questions around polygamy, obedience, and the stories I was taught, and how those experiences shaped the way I understood truth, authority, and my own inner voice.
This episode is an invitation to look beyond one documentary and ask where brainwashing, manipulation, cognitive dissonance, or inherited beliefs may be showing up in your own life. Whether it is in religion, relationships, family systems, work, or community, I hope this conversation helps you create space, listen to your body, question what no longer feels aligned, and begin reclaiming your voice, your freedom, and your ability to trust yourself again.
I reflect on the documentary Trust Me: The False Prophet and the deeper lessons around belief systems, control, cognitive dissonance, and self-trust. This episode is an independent commentary and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Netflix.

In this episode of The Danette May Show, I’m opening up about the power of breaking old patterns, releasing limiting beliefs, and stepping into a new identity. After a season of deep travel, motherhood transitions, and personal reflection, I began seeing the hidden loops of overworking, overwhelm, worthiness, and old conditioning that were still shaping my life. I share how patterns are not random. They are often protecting something deeper, and true healing begins when we understand what those patterns are trying to keep us safe from.
I also share why I’m beginning a powerful new series connected to the Netflix documentary Trust Me: The False Prophet, including my upcoming conversations with Dr. Christine Marie and Nomz. Through my own Mormon upbringing, cognitive dissonance, and the deeper lessons around belief systems, manipulation, cult dynamics, and self-trust, this episode is an invitation to question what you have inherited, reclaim your voice, and come home to your truth. This conversation is for anyone ready to break free from old programming, trust themselves again, and live from a deeper place of freedom, love, and inner knowing.

In this quick but powerful episode, I share how childhood trauma and abuse can program your subconscious mind to expect negative experiences, distrust good things, and stay stuck in patterns that feel familiar but painful. If you’ve ever felt like good things are unsafe, too good to be true, or “not meant for you,” this conversation will help you understand how trauma can shape your thoughts, beliefs, relationships, and self-worth.
I also walk you through a simple NLP reframing technique to help you shift from victim mentality into survivor energy, change the way you speak about yourself, and begin rewiring limiting beliefs. This isn’t about fake positivity or spiritual bypassing. It’s about acknowledging what happened, taking your power back, and using your words, thoughts, and daily choices to create a new direction for your healing, confidence, and life.

IN THIS EPISODE:
(0:00) Welcome to the episode
(2:10) How to join the free workshop
(2:59) A powerful lesson on healing trauma patterns
(3:08) Why good things can feel unsafe after trauma
(4:30) How to reframe limiting beliefs with NLP
(5:07) The power of your words and self-talk
(6:09) Questions that help you break the victim cycle
(7:08) Why healing is not spiritual bypassing
(7:29) A real example of reframing a trauma belief
(8:22) How to stop blaming and reclaim your power
(09:10) Final reminder for your healing journey

In Part 5 of The Europe Diaries, I’m sharing the final days of my solo journey through Crete and the sacred moments that unfolded when I surrendered my plans and listened to the land. From staying alone in a peaceful villa by the sea to being surrounded by mama cat and kitten medicine, this episode is a reflection on motherhood, protection, trust, feminine intuition, and the quiet magic that appears when we allow spirit to guide the way.
I also take you with me through the mountains of Crete as I follow soul guidance to a hidden ancient cave with petroglyphs, meet a local shepherd who helps guide me there, and later walk among the Minoan ruins of Anopolis. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt called to a place, trusted divine timing, or needed the reminder that your body holds wisdom, your path is sacred, and the signs are always speaking.

In this deeply personal episode of The Europe Series, I’m sharing the second half of Part Four from my time in Crete, Greece with the Lotus Elevated women. What began as preparation for a water ceremony became a powerful invitation to look at the stories we keep repeating, the versions of ourselves we continue to speak out loud, and how we can rewrite those narratives from a place of healing, empowerment, and spiritual truth.
I also share the miracle of a mother cat who entered our circle with her kittens, the ancient symbolism of cats in Crete, and the sacred feminine medicine that unfolded through sisterhood, trust, vulnerability, and magic. This episode is a reflection on spiritual awakening, feminine leadership, ancient wisdom, emotional healing, rewriting your story, and remembering that life is always speaking to us when we are willing to listen.

(0:00) Continuing part four
(1:33) Stories before ceremony
