Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast

*Please be advised: episode contains mature content.*

Mari Abraham is a Sangoma, a traditional Zulu shamanic practitioner. In this interview, I ask her about her spiritual journey of healing and transformation. Mari shares her insights about the state of spirituality today, how we must become responsible for healing ourselves before we extend our healing out into the world, and how we must help each other achieve a greater sense of belonging just being who we are. We also briefly discuss the nervous system and the importance of sexuality in fully healing the body.

Inner Work 048: How You Can Do More Soul-Aligned Work

Episode 48 of Inner Work features a discussion of soul-aligned work: what it is, how we can define it, how you know when you're doing it, and how can you start doing more of it right now. (No matter where you are in terms of your profession or job -- you can begin anywhere!) I also talk about the characteristics of soul-deadening work, which is the opposite of soul-aligned work, and how it drains you and keeps you unfulfilled. Ready to take the plunge and shift from an old paradigm of "hard work" and "paying your dues" to a new paradigm of "soul-aligned work" and doing what sets your soul on fire? Then join me for this conversation!
