Why 2026 Is The Year Of Disclosure - Episode 323

I connect the dots behind “The Great Unmasking,” explaining why 2026 looks like a year of disclosure across institutions, celebrity culture, and our own private lives. I share how integrity, nervous system strength, and discernment help us stay grounded as illusions collapse and truth becomes harder to ignore. 

• connecting psychology, sociology, energy, intuition, history, and astrology into one holistic framework 
• explaining “disclosure” as both global and personal, not just political 
• naming COVID as a global mirror that reveals fear, manipulation, numbing, and self reflection 
• describing the illusion based world: optics over integrity, secrecy over transparency, PR over truth 
• breaking down the “boys’ club” as a pattern that protects power and punishes truth tellers 
• unpacking celebrity and influencer culture: pay to play, bought image, fake expertise, media manipulation 
• exploring money based identity and why status without essence collapses 
• using Pluto in Aquarius and historical rhyme as pattern recognition, not prediction 
• outlining the psychology of awakening: cognitive dissonance, legitimacy collapse, collective trauma 
• offering tools: nervous system regulation, emotional intelligence, shadow work, triggers, aligned community

down how you can support yourself up to the end of this year. And I'm also gonna tell you that I don't think, correct me if I'm wrong, tell me if I'm wrong, but I'm gonna connect the dots between psychology, sociology, energy, intuition, history, and a little bit of astrology. Because I don't know if anybody has actually looked at this in a holistic perspective, which you know I do, but I'm gonna try and actually connect all the dots between what is happening in this world. I'm not gonna get into deep politics here. I'm gonna touch on it. I am not a believer in astrology as a tool of complete prediction. You can't do that. I I am a I'm also not a believer in health and wellness as it pertains to looking at the body in silos. So that's why I'm recording this because this podcast, it's not that easy to do, but I'm gonna try and do it. And I would love to hear your feedback because I'm gonna kind of try and connect everything and then also connect how we can support ourselves in our own little micro world in this world of macro that is, you know, when you look at the world as a whole, it's pretty corrupt. There's a lot of bad shit happening. So before I begin, I am gonna ask you to stay with me to the end because I am gonna give you some potential tools that you might resonate with just to make you feel a little more at ease in this world, in your own skin, in your own life.

my background and maybe you'll subscribe. I am a registered holistic nutritionist. I am also a certified metabolic balance coach. I believe in science and soul. I never believe in this whole body as a side, like you know, components and health and wellness. Only look at this, or only look at that, or only look at this. I believe we're such complex humans with so many different layers. And that's what my podcast is about. I've been in this space for over six years, and this year I decided to go more solo because I've seen a lot of what I'm gonna talk about today. A lot of, I'm not gonna use the word corruption. In some cases, yes, corruption, but a lot of things happening that are without integrity. I see that podcasts have become celebrities taking over the space. I'm not one, clearly. I am a woman with a purpose and a soul where my whole purpose is to make this world a better place. Period. I am a woman with a hero's journey. My daughter at the age of five had cancer. I had cancer a year later. I went back to college. I'm an English English literature graduate. But this is my soul, this is my megaphone. It's my way to actually try and make this world a better place. So wherever you are listening, when you hit subscribe, that actually helps my podcast to be seen by more people.

Okay, enough of that. Now let me get into this podcast episode because this is a big topic. I explained that I'm going to look at this as the great unmasking because I see a lot of people who are really in the silos, and people still work in these silos of you know, esoteric or a lot of politics or psychology only. And I'm going to try and piece it all together and

A Whole System Way To See Truth

Sandy Kruse 8:12

talk about how 2026 is really the year of disclosure. So, to kind of summarize that, if you've been living from the premise whereby your foundation is not solid, it's going to crumble. And we've been seeing some of that over the last couple of years. A lot of the things that don't support integrity, truth, you know, if if if you're just all about the money and there's nothing underneath that money, well, all of that's coming to crumble in the end of 2026. This is not me being a visionary. I am a visionary, how and I do have strong intuition and I do have a lot of power within me. But a lot of these thoughts are fragmented thoughts from thought leaders in the space of wellness, body, mind, spirit, soul. But I'm putting it all together because I see it so fragmented. So really, you can't understand what's happening now by listening only to astrologers, only to intuitives, only to political analysts or psychologists or economists or just the spiritual teachers. We need all of it together in collaboration, in conversation, to see the full picture. That's what this episode is about. A whole system explanation of why the world looks the way it does right now, why everything is erupting. You think it's erupting all at once, but actually it's been a few years. And how many times have you heard life has not been the same since COVID? Right? How many of your friends have said that? God, life was so great before COVID. Life was so wonderful before the pandemic. Started a little before that, my friends. So 2026 is the year of disclosure. And what I want you to do is, yes, you might look at this from a political sense, you might look at this, but I want you to look at this from a holistic perspective of the world. And then I want you to zoom in on your life, your friendships, your connections, your business, everything. So you're gonna go out and then you're gonna zoom in. Okay. So a phrase that has been used by some of the most respected voices of this era, and you know, these are really visionaries. Bashar, what's his name? Daryl uh Anka. Daryl Anka. Bashar, he channels Bashar. He has spoken for decades about a frequency

Truth Waves And Frequency Shift Ideas

Sandy Kruse 11:17

shift. So you might not believe in that. There's so much going on about quantum energy, entanglement, frequency shifts, jumping timelines. Go look it up. Lee Harris, who I've been following for a while, he called 2024 to 2026 the era of truth waves. Okay, so everything that's been bubbling underneath is erupting. We've seen that. I'm gonna get through it. So Pam Gregory, who has repeatedly said by the end of 2026, nothing lacking integrity will remain hidden. Then, you know, there's a lot of these astrologers who will say, you know, Pluto and Aquarius is the great reveal. Just basically, these are all different languages, but the same message. And here's the thing that most people miss is that disclosure isn't just global, it's also personal. So that's why I told you to zoom in. You're gonna look out and then you're gonna zoom in on your life. So the same forces collapsing institutions are also collapsing relationships, the same forces exposing corruption are exposing your own patterns, the same forces dismantling celebrity culture are dismantling the masks that people wear in everyday lives. And this actually didn't start in 2026. It didn't start with Pluto entering Aquarius. You'll hear a lot of that with the astrologers, and it didn't start with celebrity collapse or political exposure, it started slowly and quietly. The first global mirror, which I mentioned already, was COVID. And it was global, and it was a big, big exposure, and it's been building ever since. So by the end of 2026, you will see more truth in your life than you've ever seen before. Not because you know you weren't ready, but because the world wasn't ready. So this is the year where secrets are going to surface, if they haven't already, because remember, if you look at Lee Harris, he said this began in 2024. Okay, so secrets surface, motives reveal themselves, relationships show their real foundation, people's true character becomes very obvious. Anything built on illusion falls apart, anything built on integrity will become stronger. This is not chaos, this is coherence, clarity, and correction. This is disclosure, my friends. And today I'm going to show you how the world got here, why it's happening now, what it means for you, scientifically, psychologically, spiritually, and energetically. So the real beginning was the COVID first, you know, the global mirror. So COVID didn't just divide people politically, it divided people energetically. There was rumblings before this, but this is like the big one. So the stillness that we all experienced during the pandemic, it revealed the truth.

COVID As The Global Mirror

Sandy Kruse 14:44

It revealed to you who thinks independently, who collapses into fear, who numbs, who manipulates, and who self-reflects. So COVID was the first crack in the illusion of trustworthy systems. People began to see the world is not what I thought. So there were earlier cracks before the collapse. Look at the Epstein and Trump stuff. I don't want to get into a lot of it. I don't get into a lot of it. And I will say, as a I'm proud of being such an individual thinker, and I research and I analyze everything and what makes sense. So there are certain things I won't go deep on because they're too dark and I don't need to. And there are a lot of people who go so deep that they drown in all that darkness. Okay. So Epstein exposed the scale of corruption and the boys' club protection network. This is big. This is a big theme. And it's gonna, I'm gonna talk about this more. Trump exposed the illusion of elite immunity and institutional fragility. So these weren't scandals, they were systems of a deep, deep rot. They showed the public this goes all the way. Okay, all the way. It leaks everywhere. So what's actually collapsing? The illusion-based world. So define the system clearly, built on money as identity. So if your identity is built on money, who are you before you had money? Who were you? Did the money build you, or did life's experiences,

The Illusion Based World Starts Crumbling

Sandy Kruse 16:45

um, integrity, growth, self-reflection, self-awareness, did that build you, or was it the money? I'm pausing because I want you to think about that. Did the system clearly was it built on performance instead of authenticity? Built on secrecy instead of transparency, built on a hierarchy instead of humanity, built on optics instead of integrity, built on PR instead of truth, built on the boys' club instead of accountability. This is not the world collapsing, this is the world built on illusion collapsing. Let's get into the boys' club, because I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about. The boys club is actually a global operating system behind everything. It's not a group of men, it's a pattern. The architecture behind political corruption, Hollywood abuse, celebrity protection

The Boys’ Club Pattern Explained

Sandy Kruse 17:58

networks, financial fraud, religious cover-ups, influencer pay-to-play. This is big. Pay to play. Behind every massive influencer, there's a pay-to-play model, there's even a documentary. They've made two now, and everybody who's a part of it paid to be a part of it, as opposed to being called upon and getting paid because they're incredible, they're amazing on their own merit. Media manipulation. I've done this myself. I did not realize that I was not specially chosen to be written up in an article. I was like, oh my god, what an honor it was to be asked to have an article written about me. Okay, I gotta pay a few hundred bucks. Okay, I'll do that. Then I realized I kept getting more and more and more messages. Hey, hey, hey, pay this, and we'll write an article about you. We're gonna make you big. You just have to pay this. There's something very wrong about that. I did it once, I won't do it again. Then there's also corporate misconduct. That's the this is the architecture. The core rules of the boys' club is protect the powerful, silence the truth teller, punish the whistleblower, rewrite the narrative, and maintain the illusion. And everything is connected, my friends. So let's talk a little bit about celebrity and influencer collapse. Celebrity culture was built on PR, gatekeeping, secrecy, image controls, fake relationships, staged uh whatever walks, bought followers, purchased magazine covers. I just told you about my situation. I did it once. I didn't know. I didn't know, but I'm telling

Celebrity Culture And Influencer Grift

Sandy Kruse 20:12

you now, any major magazine with an article is simply an ad that's been paid for. Then there's ghostwritten expertise, fake activism, influencer, grift. The public now sees this. They see this, we all see it. The illusion economy is collapsing because the frequency in the world no longer supports this inauthenticity. Okay, I don't know. Listen, I watch The Real Housewives because I find it really like fun and relaxing, and just no brain required, and it helps me turn off. And I'm like, you watch a lot of that, and you're like, whoa, just so much fakery there. The world is so let's get into money-based identity collapse. People who built their identity on money, status, optics, and performance are gonna struggle if they haven't been struggling already. Not because money is bad, but because money without integrity has no foundation. It's nothing. You're nothing. If you're not built on some sort of foundation, your essence, your soul, who you are. The money means nothing. Often they numb, avoid, bypass, manipulate, and refuse self reflection. Their collapse is self created because they never built an entire. Eternal identity. Now I'm going to get into a little bit of the uh astrology. Not because I believe that astrology can predict everything. However, there are certain patterns, and I say this all the time. If you feel like whatever is out in the atmosphere has no effect on you, you may want to reflect on that thought.

Pluto In Aquarius And History Rhymes

Sandy Kruse 22:29

And the reason is, you know, if you look back on that ship that was stuck in the Suez Canal and they had to wait until the moon was full for the tide to go down, the moon can move tides. It can change parts of the world that we live in. So why would you believe that things in the atmosphere have no effect on you? Why are these, you know, centuries of thoughts of you know, full moons and how they can make you crazy and all that kind of stuff? It's there for a reason. We do not, again, we do not live in a silo here on earth. We're part of an atmosphere. So this is why we do need to take into account what's kind of going on around us, not to predict every aspect of our life, but just to kind of take that as one piece of this holistic puzzle. So Pluto and Capricorn was where we were in 2008 to 2023 or 24. I think we were part of 24 in there. So this Pluto is a planet, and it was in the sign of Capricorn. So it exposed governments, exposed corporations, patriarchy, hierarchy, institutional rot, the boys' club, right? So this is that whole unearthing that I was talking about. Now we're in this Pluto age of Aquarius. It began in 2024. So that exposes illusion, exposes false identity, celebrity culture, influencer culture, spiritual bypassing, all that fake, spiritual shit. Come on, there's a lot of fakes out there, my friends. Exposes corruption and exposes everything that lacks integrity. So the last time Pluto was in Aquarius, from I have the dates actually, it was 1777 to 1798. During this era was the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the collapse of monarchies, the rise of individual rights, public rejecting illusion, and the overthrow of corrupted power. So history doesn't repeat itself, but it can rhyme, mimic, have some changes and differences. Of course, we've evolved. I'm just making the connection. Now, there are a lot of these greats in this, I'm gonna call them in the spiritual realm. I do follow Bashar, Lee Harris energy. There's you know different intuitive predictions. So Bashar says, as the frequency rises on the planet, anything that's out of alignment will collapse. And you cannot maintain a lower frequency identity in a higher frequency reality. And I'm gonna get to how we can get there individually to contribute to a world that is a higher frequency. Lee Harris, 2024 to 2026 is the era of truth waves. Integrity becomes magnetic. By the end of 2026, everything lacking integrity will be revealed. This is not prophecy, it's pattern recognition. And we've seen a lot of this stuff coming up, you guys. Everything happens for a reason, you know, that's saying. So science and psychology, why people are seeing it now. Cognitive dissonance collapse. The brain can't maintain illusions under contradiction, pattern recognition activation. People finally see what was always there. You kind of have these aha moments, legitimacy collapse. When behavior contradicts

Psychology Of Waking Up To Truth

Sandy Kruse 26:48

image. Then there's collective trauma to a collective awakening, COVID accelerated awareness. Not for everyone, but for many. I know it did for me. I saw things in a different way. Nervous system awakening. People can feel when something is off. And this is the thing I always say: well, we all have certain gifts that we come here with. I believe that every single one of us has so much power within us. And I've learned this from some people who um I have been connected with for quite a while, for the last couple of years, who teach you how to find that power within you. We all have into intuitive abilities, all of us. It's just are we dialing in on that frequency or not? So discernment is the new human skill. People now sense who is real, who's performing, who's manipulating, who's numbing, who's bypassing, who's aligned, and who is out of integrity. Discernment is the new intelligence, and integrity is the new currency. Not everyone's there, because remember, if you built your life on that foundation that wasn't solid, that's going to show now. Personal identity collapse. How this shows up in real life. Relationships ending, friendships dissolving, careers shifting, family dynamics changing, masks are falling, people revealing their true character, hidden motives surfacing, internal patterns breaking. The same forces that are collapsing institutions are also collapsing your own personal illusions. Now, I mention her all the time. I've recorded with her many times. I've known her for a couple years, and I know her partner as well, a sim, Brenda Ferrugia. She talks a lot about the return to your own essence, really. Brenda actually helps people uncover their true essence, bring more light onto the planet. So you're gonna have to look her up. She also works on a corporate level. There's, I'm gonna say, you know, all of that surface corporate stuff is falling away, and corporations are gonna look to people more like Brenda for concrete change in the workplace. She has all those skills. Just look her up. So brilliant.ca. Essence matters more than identity in the new world. And people who do the inner work will rise, and people who avoid that inner work will collapse. Just the way of the new world, my friends. What's gonna collapse? This is the new world. Illusion, performance, manipulation, secrecy, hierarchy, the boys' club. That's for fucking sure. Money-based identity. If your identity is based on money, and you were nothing before because you had no foundation, you're gonna be nothing again. Bypassing. That's gonna be gone. No more bypassing. Corruption. What will rise is integrity, authenticity, emotional intelligence, but I mean like deep emotional intelligence, not the fluffy stuff, discernment. I'm talking about, by the way, I'm talking about stuff that Brenda teaches. Okay, nervous system regulation. I've done a lot of podcasts on that. Accountability, truth, transparency, true essence of who you are. So how to move forward. Number one, strengthen your nervous system. Because the stronger you are in your entire nervous system, the better you're gonna be in your own life. I've recorded so much about this. Build true emotional intelligence. And by

Tools For Nervous System And Discernment

Sandy Kruse 31:24

that, I'm talking about break those limiting beliefs, those negative beliefs. Do some of the real deep self-awareness work. Practice discernment. Do shadow work. Understand your triggers, understand them instead of acting on them and acting out as a result. Stop numbing, stop performing, stop bypassing. Build identity from your essence, not your optics. Surround yourself with aligned people, let what falls away fall away, and trust what remains. I have set so many intentions in my life in the last year. And I'm gonna say, I have never felt more powerful from right here from within me than I do right now. And I think it's gonna just keep growing. Meaning, what fell away fell away for a reason. And I'm I'm so much lighter as a result, as hard as it could be initially. So I'm gonna close because I actually gave you a few ideas. I gave you a resource. Get in touch with Brenda, you'll love her. The world is not falling apart, and I want to make that clear because this whole doom and gloom outlook, and you know, I think we have to really be careful of falling into a place of fear,

Fear, Integrity And The Closing Message

Sandy Kruse 33:08

which I think a lot of people were in during the pandemic. Fear was massive. We have to be careful, and the more internal work we do, the more we're gonna realize okay, I'm in fear, and it's not about pushing it down or pushing it away or numbing it, it's about realizing you're there and then trying to figure out why I am here. I'm okay to feel this, I'm gonna process it. The world is falling into truth. Everything built on illusion is collapsing, everything built on integrity is rising. If you are living in integrity, you have nothing to fear from any reveal. You actually are the reveal. If this resonated with you, please share it. I'm asking you to go ahead and rate it, review it on Spotify, on Apple, because I've been sitting here doing this work for a very long time. But the fact is, is that I need those of you who are listening to rise up and support those who are doing their best to create a world that is a better place. I thank you.
