Spirituality
Hosted by Jessica Sage and Michelle Zaylar
Spirituality is a BIG topic. When you hear the word you might think of anything from religion to mysticism to the idea of a soul or the source of all things. You may even think of certain types of people when you hear it: maybe people who practice healing or prayer, people you feel radiate a certain type of energy, or even people who you find to be a bit delulu…
Whatever comes up for you, we hope this episode gives you space to reflect on your own relationship to spirituality, whether you’ve experienced a ‘spiritual awakening’ or not.
Join us as we scratch the surface of what spirituality means to us and hear how we each navigate our connection to all that’s bigger than us! BONUS: Can you recognize some of the moments during this convo where we may be tapping into that spiritual connection right here on the pod, in this very conversation? You might notice our tone change, or that the energy shifts.
And let’s just say if you are able to slow down enough and sense those moments, you very well might be connecting to your own spirit alongside us too. And we love that for you.
If not, no worries at all! We’re glad you came along for this spiritual ride either way!
