On today’s episode, we’re joined by Joanna Meyer, Founder of Women, Work, and Calling at The Denver Institute of Faith and Work. Together, we go deep into the complex and rewarding landscape of understanding God's call in the lives of women and their work. 

We start by exploring the biblical foundation of callings, laying out the unique roles that both Adam and Eve were assigned. Joanna reveals the profound implications of "the fall" on these roles and the callings of men and women in general. 

The episode is enriched with the concept of "vocational imagination," a term that Joanna beautifully defines, providing actionable insights on how modern women can use this to navigate life. We talk about the roles women have been boxed into by society and even by faith communities, and how we can break free to recognize and live out our diverse callings.

A highlight of this episode is our discussion on "Soul Care" for the working woman, which goes beyond traditional spiritual activities like prayer and church attendance. Joanna shares how practices like the "breath prayer" can be seamlessly integrated into a busy workday for a more mindful and fulfilling life.

This episode is not just a discussion but a call to action for every woman to understand and step into her unique calling with confidence. Whether you're struggling to find your purpose, seeking ways to juggle work and family, or looking for spiritual rejuvenation, this episode has something invaluable to offer.
