Welcome back to the Spiritually Active Podcast!

If you are feeling slow at getting back into the swing of things, you are not alone - I have been taking my time in figuring out the flow of my life & have taken a ~less disciplined~ approach than I normally do. Being a recovering perfectionist, taking a moment to reflect on what is truly working for me that I already do helps give me the energy to make small shifts with big impact.

In this episode, I talk about:

• some elements of my routine that I am super excited about

• a few tips on stacking habits so that you feel energized and ready for your day

My guest this week is an incredible friend and mentor, Laura Poulton. Laura is truly an amazing & refreshing human being - she has been through think & thin and so openly talks about the challenges that come with owning a small business, processing grief, and finding rituals that work for you. Her Catholic faith is very important to her, and she has found a beautiful connection with God in continuing to grow in that faith. Laura & I have a very similar upbringings & backgrounds, and this episode talks a lot about how we view spirituality a bit differently, but still very much feel the same about our paths forward and how we connect with others. Laura also finds spirituality in her creative expression through painting, and she is the small-business owner of the incredible print shop, Lolly & Lou. She has incredible products & offers custom prints upon request! She is a champion of being your authentic self and showing up wherever you are, exactly as you are. I cannot wait for you to hear her perspective!

• What's been on my heart + feeling unaligned
• My recent plant medicine experience
