Rachel Gitlevich: Praying to a God You're Mad At

Rachel Gitlevich: Praying to a God You're Mad At

In this episode of Progress Always, I sit down with Rachel Gitlevich, author of What in the Actual FCK* and founder of Ray of Consciousness. We dive into her journey through cancer, brain surgeries, and near-death experiences — and how gratitude, humor, and resilience became her anchors. Rachel shares how she transformed life’s darkest moments into light, intentionality, and purpose.

Key Takeaways

  1. Gratitude doesn’t mean ignoring pain — it’s finding light in small moments.

  2. Your worst day gives you perspective on what truly matters.

  3. Humor and creativity can reframe even the heaviest challenges.

  4. Intentionality with time, energy, and relationships is the true win.

  5. Healing isn’t just survival — it’s an invitation to thrive beyond your “baseline.”

Quotes

  • “Returning back to the light over and over again is what keeps me grounded.” – Rachel Gitlevich

  • “Praying to a God you’re mad at is still prayer.” – Rachel Gitlevich

  • “Getting off the toilet isn’t the win — going beyond your baseline is.” – Rachel Gitlevich
