Earlier this year, I reconnected with Jeremy Van Wert, therapist and transformational coach, through the Mindful Mutiny Podcast. Jeremy and I initially met in California at a transpersonal psychology conference. We caught up 6 years later to discuss the links between spiritual and psychological growth, challenges of power and convenience in the church and in the world, expansive experiences of embodied faith and love, and some of my personal journey.

I’m very grateful to Jeremy for reaching out and welcoming me onto his show where he is an incredibly hospitable, thoughtful, and affirming host. Please consider checking out his show and giving him a follow. His YouTube channel with over 6,000 subscribers was zapped for nonsensical reasons, so clicking “like” and “subscribe” on his new channel can go a long way in helping his material get back into the algorithm. He’s doing important work in expanding the paradigm of healing through conscious growth and human potential in-sync with the larger powers of the universe.

The episode is available YouTube, Spotify, Apple, and all mainstream podcast platforms.

I am also very grateful to Chad Shober with The Pneuma Meditation for having me on his podcast, Pneuma Conversations. We chat about the root meaning of the word “catholic,” challenges and gifts of working in the church, going beyond Catholicism while remaining catholic, finding an authentic faith community, Teilhard de Chardin, and finding a more expansive spiritual identity in relationship with the universe as the breath of God moves within us.

“Pneuma Conversations are a raw, authentic, and unfiltered conversation with spiritual teachers, leaders, coaches, healers and seekers. Get to know who we truly are—beyond the polished world of interviews, social media and podcasts. We’re not perfect; we struggle too. Join us as we share our lives, our challenges, and meaningful discussions on healing, transformation, and the future of humanity.”
