THIS WAS YOUR SIGN.https://www.curlynikki.com/daily-devotional-that-cycle-has-finally-ended.html

A lot of us are tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. We're doing the things — the work, the list, the showing up — and still, something is pulling at us. A low hum of unfinished. For years, Robin Quinn Keehn thought that hum was a personal failing: not disciplined enough, not organized enough. It wasn't any of that. It was Open Loops. This is the backbone episode of the show — the one to send anyone who's new. Robin defines an Open Loop plainly (a commitment, promise, or agreement that's unfinished, incomplete, or outdated, quietly draining your time, energy, and peace), then walks through the three kinds almost all of us carry: Relational Loops with other people, Self-Loops — the promises we break to ourselves — and Unspoken Brokens, the things that needed to be said and never were. You'll hear why loops stay open (it's avoidance, not discipline), what they actually cost — especially what broken self-promises do to your confidence — and the three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, or recommit to it, on purpose. This is also where Robin introduces the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge, starting June 29. In this episode: What an Open Loop actually is — and why it stays quiet The three kinds: Relational Loops, Self-Loops, and Unspoken Brokens Why broken promises to yourself quietly erode your confidence Why open loops are an avoidance problem, not a discipline problem The real cost: time, energy, peace — and belief in yourself The three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, recommit to it An invitation to the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge (starts June 29) If this episode resonated with you, you might enjoy our free People Skillz community — a structured space to practice steadier, more intentional communication. We also created a short Communication Patterns Quiz to help you identify how you respond under pressure. You'll find both here.

A reading of Unbecoming 6.3 (May 25, 2026) - Only Light Remains.https://www.curlynikki.com/unbecoming.html

How Resentment Quietly Builds In this episode of The Liberated Life Podcast, Robin Keehn opens a new conversation about what happens underneath our relationships — especially when something needed to be said, but wasn't. Resentment does not usually arrive all at once. It accumulates. A tone. A look. A changed plan. A moment of being overlooked. A “yes” that should have been a “no.” None of these may seem dramatic on its own, but together they begin to form a story. Robin shares how resentment often grows in the space between what happened and what was never spoken. She introduces the idea of an Open Loop — something unfinished, incomplete, or outdated that continues draining your time, energy, and peace — and an Unspoken Broken, a relational loop that stays open because it was never named. You'll hear why resentment is not always proof that the other person is bad. Sometimes it is a signal that something remains unfinished. In this episode, Robin talks about:  How resentment quietly accumulates over time Why small moments can carry a surprising amount of weight The difference between truly releasing something and simply not bringing it up How “always” and “never” stories begin to form in relationships Why unspoken moments become Open Loops What an Unspoken Broken is and why it matters How to begin with “Here's what I've noticed” instead of an accusation The two questions to ask before having a hard conversation: Why am I sharing this?What do I actually want here? Why closing one loop can begin to restore your time, energy, and peace “Resentment is interest on a debt nobody named.” Where have you gone quiet — and what has that silence been costing you? Want a place to start? Download Robin's free tool, Close One Loop, and walk through one open loop from start to finish in just a few minutes. Go to: closetheloopsnow.com/tool You'll also be the first to hear about Robin's upcoming five-day challenge at the end of June. If this episode resonated with you, you might enjoy our free People Skillz community — a structured space to practice steadier, more intentional communication.

UnBecoming Part 6.2 - A Plant. (May 24, 2026)"Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word." - Luke 1:38You couldn't hear what God wanted you to do. The phone you held was going off. Family. Friends. You turned it off. And you sat down on the ledge of the balcony outside of your living room loft and closed your eyes. You breathed. You could hear the traffic beneath you. You could feel the Son above you. You reached inside for Him, past the thoughts. Past your solutions, your desire to explain yourself, past your desire to fight. You were still unaware of Ephesians 6:12. You were still unaware that they had interviewed a friend of the office. A writer. A contributor. A creator. That was no stranger in an inbox who had submitted their responses for editing. It was intentional. It was brilliant.

UnBecoming Part 6 - TROJAN HORSE. (May 23, 2026)‘Uncle Tom'. ‘Sell-Out'.Two of tens of thousands of notifications greet you as you groggily peer at your phone through one squinted eye. It's early morning. It's the weekend. You were only checking your phone to see the time, but found yourself being dragged. A first.

UnBecoming Part 5.3: The Pole. (May 22, 2026)"JUMP!" A well-known teacher of Zen meditation shouts at you from across the table. You look around to see if anyone heard. You lean in, "What do you mean, jump?" He picks up his jasmine tea and sips it, unblinking, not breaking eye contact with you."You're still scared. JUMP!" "HOW?!" You asked, matching his volume and intensity.

UnBecoming Part 5.2: The Fly. (May 21, 2026)At this point, the signs are loud. You see them everywhere. Every time you look up. Every time you look at the clock, it's 11:11 or 1:11 or 2:22 or 3:33 or 4:44 or 5:55... white feathers, butterflies, certain birds, messages that seem to be directed at you on bumper stickers, license plates, billboards, in the most random places, at the most poignant times. But you know stuff. You have a degree in psychology. You know about pattern recognition or sensory gating; you know that at some point, you started looking for these signs, looking for meaning, assigning meaning to them. And yet... and yet.

UnBecoming Part 5: How to Fail (May 20, 2026)Your whole life, you've felt this urgency. Not like you were running out of time, but that you only had a certain amount of time to figure it out. To remember what you couldn't seem to remember. What always felt just out of reach. What others seemed to didn't care about or even know of. They were busy living life and having friends. You didn't have many growing up (you don't have any now).Your mom said you rarely smiled, and all you wanted to do was be alone with your books. You began reading esoteric and mystical literature by the age of seven. You were doing practices to get out of your body, to find out what was beyond your body, by age ten. Staring into mirrors, at that reflection, looking back down at that body, knowing it wasn't you.

UnBecoming Part 4.3- The Last Morning (May 19, 2026)"How are you?"When someone is secretly struggling, barely holding it together, smiling for the world, wearing the mask, playing the role, fighting for their Light, dropping those three words with actual presence, can decimate their entire structure. And on that final morning of the retreat, those were the words that broke the silence. They didn't come from a person, but from the empty room, from the full silence, appearing as a person, your teacher. Appearing as a polished mirror. You looked up to answer, but saw. You burst into tears. You sobbed. Finally.That morning, as you and the other meditators gathered, among whom were your partner and your favorite cousin, you didn't choose your usual spot on the floor. You were disgusted. You were angry, humiliated. Your eyes were swollen from crying the night before. You were ready to go. So instead of your perfect lotus posture, sitting deep into the room right in front of the teacher, like the good student, you sat near the door, in a chair. You defiantly, and passive-aggressively, meditated in a chair.

UnBecoming Part 4.1 - The Blue Book (May 18, 2026)Every major change in your life has been preceded by, and in hindsight, likely predicted by the arrival of a certain blue book. You used to think you were the one finding the book, buying the book, reading the book, remembering to take the Name again, giving the book away again, forgetting the Name again, life falling apart again, finding the book, buying the book... you finally saw the pattern. It only took three cycles. Two incarnations, two different versions of yourself to catch on to the game.

UnBecoming Part 4 - California Love (May 17, 2026)Your only trips to California had been to L.A. To the Hills. To Grammy parties. Red carpets. Album releases. VIP sections. Celebrity culture. You've squeezed so many incarnations into this one. So many stories. Many of which have dissolved entirely. The only thing you can recall consistently now is the Name of God. When you bump into pictures of those previous iterations of yourself, it's very dreamlike. The past is very dreamlike.

UnBecoming Part 3.3 - The Hand You Squeeze Back (May 16, 2026)"I'm okay", he whispers, groggily attempting to sit up on the floor. Kneeling next to him, your hand on his arm, you survey the dimly lit room like a detective. His record player and a stack of albums, the music that had propped up your lives all these years, broke the fall and prevented him from hitting his head. You tell him not to move, as he stubbornly insists on rising anyway.With slow, steadying steps, he makes his way to the living room to await the emergency workers, with you following close behind, arms hovering outward, as if you could actually catch him if he fell again. >>> CONTINUEhttps://www.curlynikki.com/unbecoming.htmlLove's Provision To support the daily devotional and the work of The Cure: Donate to Lovehttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=EC6DCGW3CRP5G

UnBecoming Part 3.2 - 911: The Sound Before the Fall (May 15, 2026)God. God. God. You begin to hear the Name of God inside, even as your mom's cry joins your own, it's as if God is calling you, crying out to you from the depths of you, calming you, stilling you, and yet carrying you out of your childhood bedroom, out of that boat, and onto the water of the hallway. It felt a mile long. His legs looked lifeless and still; the moment stood still. Was this that moment?

UnBecoming Part 3 - The Hallway. (May 14, 2026)You look over at the light streaming in through your bedroom window. It's not the soft light of the moon; it's artificial light. Street lights. You're not home, you're back home. In the same twin bed you slept in during high school, watching the same trees dance in the wind, the same shadows play on the same hardwood floors you played on, talked on the phone in circles on, those floors have witnessed you.And now you kneel on them. You pray on them, whispering down toward them, you walk in tight circles on them, not on a call, but as a form of meditation, feeling God's Love in every step. Calling His Name with every step. Asking to be shown, to be provided the next step- whether to divorce or not. Whether to move or not? To the beach, perhaps.You're conflicted. But the floor is not. The room is not. It's bare. It's clean. It's small, but tidy. You can hear yourself think here, even as you are trying to get out to that place beyond thoughts, where the real answers come from. The Peace you feel as you listen past your thoughts and look over their shoulders, brings about sleep.Just as you drift, you are startled awake. Was that a crash? Did something fall? Did someone fall? You listen… for the children. For your parents. Acute. Aware. It was nothing. You soften back into the mattress, resting on your back, not yet asleep again,CRASH.Definitely something that time. Definitely someone. Your heart rate rises faster than you can. You jump up, grabbing your phone with shaky hands, instinctively yelling, 'DAD!' the one you worry about the most. The one you've called on the most. The one who understands. Before you can even enter the hall, you see his feet sticking out of his door. God. >>>> UNBECOMING.https://www.curlynikki.com/unbecoming.html

UnBecoming Part 2.3 - No Brakes. (May 13, 2026)In a haze of "what if" thoughts, you make your way across the parking lot to your car. A safe haven. You lock the door, depress the brake, and push the start button just to get the air flowing. You notice that despite the fearful thoughts, the Name is still flowing inside, like two competing radio stations. Your attention is torn, a war between the flesh and the spirit.You try to give your attention to the Name, to the Love, to His Presence, but you watch yourself reach for your phone. You are aware that this is not what you want to be doing, yet you watch as your fingers swipe to Safari, then to Google, and begin typing words related to the doctor's visit and potential findings.

That's the face of permanent Grace.UnBecoming Part 2.2 - The Automatic Practice (May 12, 2026)They don't respond. You adjust your posture, looking awkwardly down at your feet. You begin to feel the Light emanating from them. You close your eyes. You feel the Feeling. The practice is working. You hadn't consciously turned to it; but God started it. You could hear His Name starting inside, going round and round like a prayer wheel. It was in your voice, yes, but It was going without your effort, automatically, spinning off the cacophony of other thoughts that were trying to invade your inner space. CONTINUE...

UnBecoming Part 2 - The Waiting Room (May 11, 2026)You definitely don't feel like an adult. Not like your parents did, or like their parents looked. And yet, you definitely have forgotten how to play. You can't remember the last time you relaxed. Not even on vacation. You've been in a sleep deficit for at least 10 years, and you feel as if you can only feign responsibility, trying to keep up with the world, which only seems to be speeding up. It's always trash day. The bills are always due. It's always tax season. It's always Christmas again. Your birthday, again. Monday, again. Annual visit, again? You skipped it last year.

UnBecoming Part 1.3 - The Wake Up (5/10/2026)

UnBecoming 1.2 (The Release) - "You open the text app. But your gaze is soft, not focused. You take it all in at once, seeing some very familiar names you were told not to worry about again... some from 15 years ago. Some new." CONTINUED HERE.

Your heart is racing... you're about to check their phone like you've done before, countless times, having found something every time. And yet, you've stayed, every time. For years. Nearly two decades. Out of loyalty. Out of the morals that were instilled in you by others. Out of face-saving. Out of not wanting to become a statistic. But out of love, too. You love them, deeply, even through the ice-outs, the crash-outs, the deep sadness... there've been good times. You hesitate. Not wanting to feel that familiar hurt again, but already experiencing it. Your stomach hurts. You can hear your heart beat in your ears, it feels like it may burst out of your chest. As your thumb hovers over that app, you hesitate. You're holding their phone, but you realize the only thing you're actually holding is your own fear. (UnBecoming- Part 1: The Phone)Let's look at Today's Cure. We'll sit with the rest of your story, tomorrow.

What experience will you provide yourself with today?What emotional state?Will you focus on the clouds or on the Son?Can you still hear My Voiceeven when I'm not using this mouth?Even when you're not listening to a recording?Can you still feel the relief?The answer?Can you still be the Curewhile praying for one?THIS IS HOW. https://www.curlynikki.com/

4:30am spiritual practice, done. Kid drop off, done. Fatigue, on lol. I told myself I'd nap before coming here to be with you, but the legs walked to the studio. They walked to the door behind the microphone, and the left hand rose to pull back the black curtain. The ocean was seen. The rising sun was seen. The spark of inspiration came. Love wrote this one first. Then, this body spoke it. This body will enjoy an espresso now, and probably still nap lol. I love you!
