redux-persist-transform-filter | Filter transformator for redux-persist | Widget library

i'm trying to access the store outside of the component with store.getState().

I can access the store, but the store from helpers.js is always empty (initial values).

Any idea why this is happening and what should i change to access the store from outside the component?

helpers.js

I am using redux-persist to keep track of the user token, and PrivateRoutes to allow access to the main dashboard. The persist:polls is stored in the local storage with a JWT token. If I only click on routes marked as everything works as expected, however once I click on something like "Privacy Policy" which isn't private, my local storage persist:polls is reset.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with PrivateRoute, redux-persist, or something else entirely? Here is my store.js file:
