Is there a way to call my helper method from outside of an #it

It looks like you want those methods in your module as class method,
not instance methods. Try extending, not including, your module
(extend AuthSpecHelpers.) You might want to read my post about
creating rspec macros as well:

That was post was gold, Ben. It cleared up most of my questions and
confusion regarding #include, #extend, and mix-ins. Thanks, mate.
