What is heart-centric leadership? Here's what Mike has to say about it: "There is a leadership and engagement crisis in organizations that I believe (and I am doing research on for my doctorate) is associated with a lack of willingness by leaders to embrace spiritual intelligence, along with IQ and emotional intelligence. This crisis extends beyond the organization and into our home lives wherein we are all leaders of our own lives, and is evident with the number of people that say they don't know what their purpose in life is, and how to find it. When we listen to our heart, and let it inform our mind prior to decision-making then we are also allowing space for spiritual intelligence to guide us on our own purposeful journey." Mike spent 15 years in organizational leadership, where his insights and foundation were shaped for Heart-centric Leadership www.mikewatson.today. He has done multiple keynotes and workshops for Universities and organizations. He's also appeared on HuffPost Live 3x as guest panelist to discuss leadership and social activism, and has been the beloved Emcee for TEDx Charlotte. He is currently completing his doctorate in organizational leadership, with a dissertation on Spiritual Intelligence in Leadership, with an online course series launching this summer.  He will be hiking Mount Kilimanjaro in July to raise awareness and money for the prevention of foot-born diseases, and to honor the work of Samaritan's Feet 15 year anniversary.

Do you know about the Urantia book?  This is what urantia.org has to say about it: "The Urantia Book, first published by Urantia Foundation in 1955, presents us with the origin, history, and destiny of humanity. It answers questions about God, life in the inhabited universe, the history and future of this world, and it includes an uplifting narrative of the life and teachings of Jesus.The Urantia Book portrays our relationship with God the Father. All human beings are the sons and daughters of a loving God and therefore brothers and sisters in the family of God. The book provides new spiritual truth for modern men and women and a pathway to a personal relationship with God. Building on the world's religious heritage, The Urantia Book describes an endless destiny for humankind, teaching that living faith is the key to personal spiritual progress and eternal survival.

Once a reluctant, young member of The Peoples Temple Agricultural Project, better known as "Jonestown", and one of 20 who did not travel on the Guyana trip that resulted in the deaths of more than 900 people in the Jonestown Massacre, Andy moved on to work in the fields of Neuro Linguistic Programming, Conflict Resolution & Divorce Meditation, Hypnosis, and ultimately Intuitive Medium work.  On today's show he talks about his spiritual and vocational journey that spans several decades, including extensive training in The Silva Method, mediation work for Fema after Hurricane Katrina, over 3700 psychic medium readings, and his passion for stand-up comedy. Andy also shares some of the tools he's gathered along the way for spiritual self-care and balance, and talks a little about "the old days" and some of the early key voices in the Charlotte spiritual community.  Dive into the treasure chest that is one of our spiritual community elders here in Charlotte/Lake Norman, Andy Silver.

Amy has been connecting with bodies for a long time, listening to what the body needs, beneath the words of her clients. She knows the body does not lie, and in fact, informs us about exactly what is needed! The pharmacy, she says, is provided by nature. Learning how to use that pharmacy is something she passionately teaches about and shares through oil education. Amy says, "I think about the connection that we have to everything, how we impact each other and the world at large. I think about our connection to this planet and how we've grown away from all things natural, and how beautiful mother earth is, as it literally we supports us in every manner....I worry about us as a species and how we've evolved, but devolved, at the same time. We know that we have 5 senses, but we actually have 6! ALL of us have the ability to live intuitively, into that 6th sense, but it has largely been lost or outmoded. I believe that the world needs us more than ever. WE need US - the dreamers, the healers, the empaths. We need to call everyone back, back into their bodies, their relationships with self and others, and back to this world that we inhabit. I belong to you. We are connected, inextricably connected to the ebb and flow of life."

(or anytime after) as Co-Host, Debbie Chisholm, turns the table on Host, Kendall Heath, in an interview about her spiritual journey and work as an Interfaith Minister, Medium, and Co-Founder of Light House Spiritual Center. Kendall shares what matters to her most (i.e. the primary mission) of her spiritual work, ...and her "awakening journey" thus far, which started in early childhood with stressful family experiences. Today she acts as a bridge and translator of spiritual language across many traditions, making room for a God that she believes is way too large for any one dogma or doctrine. She's thinks (for the most part) that every tradition is onto something - a piece of the gorgeous whole! Kendall also sees healing and spirituality as an intertwined path - one as integral to the other. Her mission includes facilitating healing from the illusions we have of our disconnection and separateness, a perception she says leaves people lost, addicted, and suffering with various forms of soul sickness. She explains how she serves the combined mission of healing and personal & spiritual discovery at Light House Spiritual Center in Mooresville, North Carolina. She also shares some of her early Medium experiences, what keeps her up at night, what makes her "giddy", how she responds to stress, what books are currently on the nightstand, and more....

In part 1 on this topic, Kendall shares stories of her  "awakening journey" thus far, which started in early childhood with stressful family experiences. She struggled through trauma, deep depression, drug abuse, love and sex addiction, divorce, single motherhood, soul-sucking relationships, spiritual disconnection, low self-esteem, and more...on a journey that has ultimately always been about a search for the Light (you know, the Light inside!).  Kendall sees healing and spirituality as an intertwined path - one as integral to the other. Her mission includes facilitating healing from the illusions we have of our disconnection and separateness, a perception she says leaves people lost, addicted, and suffering with various forms of soul sickness.

Today we're honing in on Paper 100, which addresses many of the questions that seekers have about spiritual growth and progress. What does it mean to be human, having a spiritual experience in the body? Why are we here? How can we understand the role of religion in this world? How do we get off track on these spiritual and religious journies? What is the goal of self realization? Today we look to Paper 100 of 196 for the answers, and raise new questions that The Urantia Book may bring insight to!

Debbie is known for her calm, kind presence and her ability to "hold space" for people in a gentle way. And ALSO, in the back office, she has a lot to say and do and is explosive (in a minature explosion sort of way) with a passion for pioneering meaningful work in our region and beyond! Faithful to the meditation and metaphysical path, Debbie's Aquarian energy is one of quiet innovation, inquiry, and a faithful devotion to the "Divine downloads" that come through her meditation practice. She lived many years in a "normal life", primarily focused on going to work in accounting, getting the bills paid, and being a Mom and Caregiver. But in the second chapter of her life, she has aligned with her soul's purpose, stepping out of the spiritual closet and into the calling of being a facilitator who helps others remember who they really are, on the soul level, and working with energy to elevate individuals to the task of aligning with that Truth again. Using intuitive skills, Shamanic tools, Priestess wisdom, Light Language, and Christ Consciousness, Debbie acts as a beacon of light for those wandering through the darkness.  Today she'll talk about her dedication to the work, her immersion into Light Language channeling and study, and some of her favorite things, gut reactions, and very human qualities.

Twenty-four times in treatment, 30 + times jailed, one month in a coma, at least 5 overdoses, and a couple near death experiences...and living today to teach from it and facilitate healing for others. Unconditional love from "the other side" (and this side, no doubt!) changed the trajectory of his life, and can change yours, too. Hollis talks about how addiction and spirituality are two sides of the same coin. Both are a longing for connection. And remembering who we truly are is central to the path of healing. He also shares various methods for treatment that extend beyond the traditional Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.  Learn more about Choices for Recovery here: www.choicesforrecovery.com.

A mother of four girls herself, whom she birthed naturally, Rebecca seems born to be a Doula! Today we talk about the support and wisdom that Doulas bring to the pregnancy, labor, post-labor, and even fertility experiences of couples and/or mothers. We look at the true impact that optimal nutrition makes on getting pregnant, hormone health, having a healthy pregnancy, and a lower stress labor. *Did you know that men are most often (though not always) the reason for fertility issues? Rebecca explains why working with the male partner is so important! The gap that a Doula fills is one of focused mind/body/spirit support for the mother (and father), and the ability to act as an educated liaison to medical teams, midwifes, and others so that a woman can do her most important task of bringing new life into the world from a place of empowerment! We share some of our own birth stories and talk about the ancient practices of birthing that are restoring themselves in our culture today. With no judgement on the type of birth experiences that families choose, we explore the Divine appointment of the Doula.

Damon shares his own journey of overcoming horrific family loss, the murder of his beloved sister, as described in his memoir, From Mourning to Knight. How does a man move through a "Dark Night of the Soul" like this, and into living from a compassionate heart, in service to his authentic self and the world? We cover the topics of stigmas males have around mental health help, the epidemic of men separating the mind/body/spirit connection and numbing their pain, and the mistake of approaching life issues as simple behavorial problems. Damon draws from his years helping veterans through Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and trauma, as we talk more about what PTSD and trauma actually are, and how they can be detected and treated. We also look at how men's relationships with family, particularly their fathers, impact them (you) as adults. Plus, where does society's screwed up messaging stack up against men? What role do their peers play? And what is happening in the brain chemistry of a man who has been struggling for a long time? For all the men who fall through the cracks in this vital and vulnerable conversation about mental/physical/spiritual health - we will not let you fall alone.

We're interviewing Kristen Vincent of Prayerworks Studio about healing spiritual wounds caused by pain and trauma, and her unique relationship to and teachings around prayer beads! Kristen will share how healing and wholeness from pain requires not just physical and emotional healing, but spiritual healing as well. She recently published a book in which she shares her own story of childhood trauma and spiritual healing, and offer...s a guide for others who seek healing. On the Spiritual Charlotte Podcast, she'll talk about the need to a) speak your truth before God; b) heal your spirit by addressing the various issues related to your trauma (grief, anger, shame, etc.); and c) experience God's peace through trust, love, forgiveness, peace, etc.. She'll also share how prayer beads can serve as a tool for spiritual healing. Kristen is the author of Beads of Healing: Prayer, Trauma, and Spiritual Wholeness (Upper Room Books, 2017). She also wrote A Bead and Prayer: A Beginner's Guide to Protestant Prayer Beads (Upper Room Books, 2013), and Another Bead, Another Prayer: Devotions for Use with Protestant Prayer Beads (Upper Room Books, 2015).

Sometimes the world of work and the world of our spiritual lives can be quite at odds, difficult to integrate, and part of a larger journey to and through more authenticity, vulnerability, and wholeness in our lives! Can you relate? Today, Katie will tells her own story about The Universe supporting her in moving away from a corporate job that was no longer in alignment with her desires, values, or energy. She also offers valuable insight on how a person can live an authentic and spiritual life while operating in "the real world", including but not limited to corporate America. What spiritual tools and practices are available to us to bring more mindfulness and balance to our work lives?When is a work environ unhealthy or no longer for us? How can we deal with difficult or contrasting energies in our workplaces? What should empathic people know about working in organizations? How do we navigate patriarchal structures in place in many organizations? What does energy have to do with all of this? We talk about all these questions and more! *Kate Jo is also an Aerial Yoga Instructor, Psychic Healer and Sound Healing Practitioner. She completed the undergraduate program with the Boulder Psychic Institute in February of 2017. Her personal experience with stress induced illness and auto-immune disorders has helped to shape her coaching approach. Her goal is to help people find their own Zen Within.

Our favorite self-professed "Bible Nerd", Joshua Adam Scott! Josh's theology is refreshing, bold, and unafraid to grow up and away from "the way things have always been done(or taught)". And yet, he loves and knows the Bible through and through! So, if you're going to talk about The Holy Bible and Jesus, this is the Pastor you want to talk about it with! Today we're talking about JESUS, and we'll be ...asking the hard questions: If we struggle with Christianity, do we necessarily have to struggle with Jesus? Is it possible we made him up? Who was/is he and who is he NOT? How can we make peace with Jesus when we don't know how we feel (or have conflicting or adverse feelings) about the religion, the churches, and/or the scripture surrounding him? What teachings of Jesus' are available to us today (regardless of our religious affiliation or UNaffiliation) to help us respond to issues like racial injustice, gender & LBGT rights, government corruption & inhumane politics, poverty, and world suffering? How can the spiritual (non-religious) person get to know Jesus in new ways, and why should they? A conversation with Josh is always too short!

Cait talks about how past-life regressions and hypnotherapy can be incredible tools to achieve deep and profound healing. She says, "Hypnosis, similar to meditation, offers a beautiful way to bridge the subconscious and the conscious. However, hypnosis is much more goal oriented and clients will be working with the hypnotherapist towards achieving a certain change in their conscious lives. Some people come to me to heal certain phobias or relationship patterns, while others come with a curiosity about how their past is informing their present. Each experience is uniquely tailored to the individual and illuminates the universal truth that emotions and memories can move seamlessly across the same/time continuum. Remembering who you truly are and the sacred contract to came into this life time with can lead to a more purposeful and empowered experience of healing, Besides the fact that she is radiant, and everyone in Lake Norman and Charlotte who has worked with her says radiant things about her radiance, do you see why we needed to chat her up?!

We're going to be zoning in on what God's dream for the world (according to the Bible) has to do with politics. Should God and politics mix? Can you love God and avoid politics? What's the Bible have to say about it? Progressive Pastor, Joshua Adam Scott, of Morgantown Community Church in Morgantown, Kentucky, didn't always read the Bible the way that he does today. In fact, he was an uber-conservative young guy with a fundamental Christian foundation, highly concerned with "the saving people's souls". But later while in seminary, a shift occurred, and he's been shifting ever since! Rather than break up with the Bible, Pastor Scott saw new possibilities in the teachings within this sacred text. He's been our favorite Bible Nerd since we happened upon him speaking at the Open Network stage at the Wild Goose Festival last summer. Influenced by Progressive Theologians like Marcus Borg, Brian McClaran, and Doug Padgett, Pastor Scott tends to help 3 types of people: 1. People who've broken up with the Bible 2. People who suspect that there's something important about the Bible, but don't know for sure what it is 3. People who LOVE the Bible and can't possibly understand why you would want to interpret it any differently than they always have Let's dive into the Bible today with rebel Bible buff, Joshua Scott, as we examine the relationship between God, God's word, and politics! www.joshuaadamscott.com  www.spiritualcharlotte.com   01:01:00Spiritual Charlottenobible,bible study,progressive christianity,Christian Politics,politicsCan you love God and avoid politics?

When they reconnected in person, they decided to dance on his grave, but got lost along the way. So they stopped for directions at a police station and ended up reporting their abuse instead!   Laura wrote about that event, the post went viral, and the seeds for Say It, Survivor were born. Today, Say It, Survivor is helping other people reclaim their abuse stories and tell them on their own terms so that they can travel the road of healing towards personal freedom and empowerment.

Right now we're in the middle of the Easter season, which lasts until June 4. *Raise your hand if you had no idea that Easter was a full season or that it lasts 50 days! We're with you! Easter is about many things, but it's most certainly about hope! What else is it about? What do the Gospel writers tell us about God being a God of Life through the Easter story? What is the message of death not having the last word? What's up with the bodily resurrection? How about the garden where Jesus' open tomb was said by some to be located? How about all the appearances Jesus made after he died? What were all the "little" stories that were included in the larger Easter Story? In our usual inquiring fasion, we hop down a few bunny trails, and ask about "The Way" and the followers of The Way, the significance of breath, the Gospel writers, "Doubting Thomases", mystical experiences, and more!

Jared Ginsburg, Director of The Hideout at Dilworth Church in Charlotte, is creating a multisensory, inclusive, safe space for spiritual exploration where those who struggle to "fit in" in traditional church can find a place to belong and participate in worship. He says, "Five year olds sit next to fifty year olds, and walk away with a meaningful connection with God. The truth is, we all have special needs! Some are just more visible that others." To Jared, this is what the Kingdom of Heaven looks like - joy, creativity, inclusion, celebration, and safety! A former public school educator with an interfaith background, Jared has seen the troubling results of special needs children fall through the cracks without early interventon or communitites that properly support them.

Through her work with ICU Talks, Kim is encouraging truth-telling for the purpose of transformation, and God's love for each of us, exactly where we are at! Today she's talking about discarding the baggage - whose responsibility is it to discard our baggage? How are we accountable to each other in our pain and our healing (the carrying and discarding of our emotional baggage)? How can a wounded message lead to powerful life rooted in God's view of us instead of other peoples' views of us? We have guests of many different faiths on The Spiritual Charlotte podcast, and Kim comes to us as a Jesus loving Christian who believes that mental health is an essential part of the spiritual journey. Did we mention that she's also a lot of fun?

Progressive Pastor, Joshua Adam Scott, of Morgantown Community Church in Morgantown, Kentucky, didn't always read the Bible the way that he does today. In fact, he was a very conservative young guy with a fundamental Christian foundation, highly concerned with "the saving people's souls". But later while in seminary, a shift occurred, and he's been shifting ever since! Rather than break up with the Bible, Pastor Scott saw new possibilities in the teachings within this sacred text. He's been our favorite Bible Nerd since we happened upon him speaking at the Open Network stage at the Wild Goose Festival last summer. Influenced by Progressive Theologians like Marcus Borg, Brian McClaran, and Doug Padgett, Pastor Scott tends to help 3 types of people: 1. People who've broken up with the Bible 2. People who suspect that there's something important about the Bible, but don't know for sure what it is 3. People who LOVE the Bible and can't possibly understand why you would want to interpret it any differently than they always have Let's dive into the Bible abyss with Josh this morning and ask some of the hard questions!           01:30:00Spiritual Charlottenoprogressive Christian,progressive Christianity,Christian,spiritual,spiritualityEpisode 2 of our 4-part series on "That Other Bible School" with Progressive Pastor, Joshua Scott, of Morgantown Community Church in Kentucky - He's o.k. with bhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2017/03/29/our-favorite-bible-nerd-pastor-joshua-scott-is-schooling-us-todayChristianityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2017/03/29/our-favorite-bible-nerd-pastor-joshua-scott-is-schooling-us-today/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2017/03/29/our-favorite-bible-nerd-pastor-joshua-scott-is-schooling-us-todayWed, 29 Mar 2017 12:47:06 GMTOur favorite Bible Nerd, Pastor Joshua Scott, is Schooling Us Today!Progressive Pastor, Joshua Adam Scott, of Morgantown Community Church in Morgantown, Kentucky, didn't always read the Bible the way that he does today.

Her parents had moved there in the 70's as a political statement in response to the times. This is where Marcela's relationship with the Divine Feminine really began. At 18 years old, just days after filling her role as a pretty, Southern bridesmaid in a family wedding, she shaved her head and hit the road for Santa Fe, New Mexico. She picked up two canon books that seem to greet many at the begining of the spiritual journey: The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield and Conversations With God by Neale Donald Walsch. Those readings held pivotal teachings that informed a spiritual path of no looking back. Marcela would go on to study International Human Rights, natural health/wellness, and ultimately evolve into her calling of doing women's work in the forms of Spiritual Guidance, Sound Healing, Priestess Immersions, Spiritual Retreats, Sacred Tours, and Body Work. Through the 8 pillars of her priestess immersions, she assists women in following their divine calling, reconnecting with the wild woman archetype, releasing mindsets of lack and worthlessness that do not serve an abundant life, and breaking old patterns that make room for eternal wisdom and transformation to come through. Today she brings some beautiful insights into the topic of The Divine Feminine. (We rang "the Rob bell" a record number of times in this episode!) Listen in to see what we mean!

Her enthusiasm brings this subject to life, perhaps in contrast to the rather dull way it may have been taught in churches you grew up in. She believes the Christian seasons are rich with ritual, myth, history, symbolism, and the natural rythems of life. But often, some of them are overlooked or entirely left out of church celebrations and practices. Many who have been Christians for years or a lifetime, do not even really know the signifiance of some of the Christian seasons - what they are revealing to us, what they have to offer our modern day lives, and how we are invited to be included in each season. These invitations and offerings can also hold value for non-Christians, as many of the meanings can be applied to anyone's life. Today we are learning about the season of Lent. Lent symbolizes the time of Jesus' Walk to Jerusalem and includes Holy Week, the last week of Jesus' life. Lasting for 40 days, this season also includes Palm Sunday, Passover, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. Using the Gospel of Mark, Susan takes us on a journey of the wisdom that can be gleaned and the questions that can be explored during the season of Lent!     01:22:00Spiritual Charlottenochristianity,charlotte,Lake Norman,progressive Christian,lentThe second episode in our series with Progressive Christian Pastor, Susan Heafner-Heun: Understanding the Christian Calendar.

It's an opportunity to extract ourselves from normal life and embark on a voyage into the unknown, to ultimately come to know more about ourselves and our place in a large and miraculous world. It is the seeker within us that is willing to go where the call of spirit might be calling us to go and explore. So many unexpected treasures can be unearthed on pilgrimages both far away and the ones we take closer to home. On today's show, Charlotte-based Spiritual Explorer/Yoga Instructor, Amanda Brutus-Phillips, shares her pilgrimage stories through India, Peru, and Egypt, while being an entrepreneurial married mother of two daughters. She talks about the significance of being a spiritual nomad and the way that pilgrimage can affect us and those we love long after we return home. 01:39:00Spiritual Charlottenospiritual,Travel,Pilgrimage,spiritual pilgrimage,ancient egyptSpiritual Pilgrimage is a journey that affects us long after we return home.

How did we go from the Age of the Goddess (a.k.a. The Mother God) to the Age of "The Father God"? What were some of the critical moments in history that caused this collective shift? Today we explore the Goddess through mythologies and traditions from Egypt, Ancient Mesopotamia, European Neolithic periods, the Near East (India), Babylon, Indo-Europe, the Mediterranean, Rome, and Greece. We also briefly look at it The Goddess within and relationship to Catholicism, Hebrew culture, early Christianity and various primitive societies. And...We dissect the significance of the virgin birth story that appears throughout many different cultural narratives, not just in the Christian narrative. Wheeeeeww! It's a brain-FULL, but a rich and essential conversation for deepening our understanding about the evolution of the forms of God that we talk about today and have been in relationship with throughout the history of the world!

As her book The Body Whisperer says, "Your symptoms tell me your truth." We can vouch for her. There is NO lie in her fire! One reading with Christine, who is actually very down to earth and relatable, will have you tossing any skepticism out the window. Her spiritual insights and keen intuitive skills about the source of your symptoms and the larger themes running your health and life may leave you awe inspired, empowered, or finally affirmed. Christine has worked with the most high-strung clients and the most low-energy, the most chronic and the generally healthy, well-known celebrities and less known folks like us. She has helped doctors get to the energetic root cause of issues like infertility or severe recurring pain. So much is gleaned about life, relationships, family dynamics, and personal healing in a conversation with her; clearly wisdom she has gathered, in part, through the Divine gift of helping others heal. Christine tells her fascinating story to Co-hosts Kendall Heath and Debbie Chisholm today, and throws a few powerful mini-medicial readings into the show, too!

What is the Divine Feminine? How do we define it? What areas of our lives does it impact? In this series, we'll cover topics like The Black Madonna, religious revision verses revolt, the women of the Bible, Goddess cultures you didn't learn about in history class, the interconnection between Goddess cultures and Judeo-Christian religion, roles of women in churches/religions today, the evolution of women's rights, the current emboldened feminine politic, women's roles in society over time up through today, and our sheparding of Mother Earth. We'll look at how the sands are shifting to allow The Sacred Feminine to come forth in new (and very ancient) ways. You're going to be hearing about The Divine Feminine now, more than ever. This should help you wrap you head and heart around what all the fuss is about. Join us today as we open a can of worms (Goddess serpents, maybe), and without apology, explore the power of The Divine Feminine in our lives.     01:06:00Spiritual Charlottenothe divine feminine,the sacred feminine,womens rights,women's religion,Christian WomenThe Divine Feminine (or Sacred Feminine) is Awakening In Our World - What does this mean for our societies, our churches, our politics, our history, and our plahttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2017/02/08/a-look-at-forgiveness--the-other-f-word-with-psychotherapist-kim-honeycuttPsychologyhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2017/02/08/a-look-at-forgiveness--the-other-f-word-with-psychotherapist-kim-honeycutt/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2017/02/08/a-look-at-forgiveness--the-other-f-word-with-psychotherapist-kim-honeycuttWed, 08 Feb 2017 14:00:00 GMTA look at Forgiveness - The Other F-word, with Psychotherapist, Kim Honeycutt!IForgiveness is one of those things - a love/hate relationship of sorts. How do we forgive when we can't seem to? Are certain acts unforgiveable? Do we make the mistake of focusing on forgiveness for others, while withholding it from ourselves? How do we protect ourselves when we are attempting to forgive chronic, abusive behavior? Who is forgiveness for? How do churches mess up the concept of forgiveness? What does Jesus have to say about it? And what's in it for non-Christians? Kim Honeycutt has a mental health ministry in North Carolina that focuses on shame, blame, and guilt issues that people suffer inside and outside of churches. She knows first hand that forgiveness is a process, one that can benefit from a better understanding of what forgiveness is really about and what it defintiely isn't about!

This is the first of 7 Christian seasons that we'll be taking a digital pilgrimage through with Susan through out the year. Beginning with Advent and ending with Christmas, the events and stories of the Christian calendar give us many opportunties for personal reflection and unique, ancient, and even mystical connection with the Divine in our everyday lives. You may find, as we did, a surprising amount of peace in the story of the journey of the Magi, and a beautiful invitation to seek bravely, discover differently, and open the door a bit wider to let new life in.

That's what she hopes - that shared stories through her program, ICU Talks, a mental heath ministry at Mosiac Church in Charlotte, will help you see that you're not alone, and will allow you to witness God's love and the God moments that exist in your life. Kim is a local Psychotherapist who candidly shares her story of alcohlism, abuse, trauma, rejection, pain, failure, self-hatred and the redemptive power of Jesus' love in her life. She's crazy-insightful, crazy-funny, and as she'll tell you, just plain crazy! Like us at Spiritual Charlotte, it is important to her that people know there is a place where they can come as they are, where they don't have to suffer alone, or have all the answers, and where perfection is left outside the church doors. She says perception is everything, and we have to look at how we are perceiving ourselves. Through whose eyes do you pereceive yourself?

Two Reiki Masters give us the 411 on this healing methodThe spiritual journey often includes alternative healing therapies that help to open the heart, heal old hurts and toxic beliefs, and remove energetic blockages that can manifest as dis-ease or hold us back in our lives. Reiki is one of those therapies that works in harmony with any spiritual journey or can assist anyone on their lifepath, regardless of religious/spiritual orientation. So, what is reiki exactly? How does it actually work? From where does it originate? How does it contribute to a person's health & wellness? Why is Western medicine taking a closer look at reiki, where it is being included more frequently as an option in mainstream patient care? And what are some success stories/testimonials of reiki treatments?

In modern times, we are distanced from an understanding of what life's seasons and natural cycles have to teach us and remind us. In our second epsiode on seasons, we are drawing from Goddess Wisdom, one of the best traditions for honoring and preserving our connections to the natural world, our bodies, our personal power, and the heart callings of all people, but most especially women. We will draw on the work of Author/Teacher, Nancy Blair, to revive the wisdom of some of the Goddesses of Autumn: Kuan Yin, Medicine Woman, Inanna, and Demeter. We will also look at what is lost when the femine aspects of God and/or Spiritual Myth/Oracle are rejected by our culture and what is gained when they are revived! Join us as we stir the seasonal soup that is Goddess Wisdom!       01:07:00Spiritual Charlottenogoddess,goddess wisdom,paganism,christianity,womens spiritualityWe're drawing on ancient Goddess Wisdom and the work of Nancy Blair today to connect a little more deeply to the topic of cycles & seasons.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2016/10/05/looking-at-seasons-in-nature-life-as-messengers-for-greater-self-awarenessSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2016/10/05/looking-at-seasons-in-nature-life-as-messengers-for-greater-self-awareness/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2016/10/05/looking-at-seasons-in-nature-life-as-messengers-for-greater-self-awarenessWed, 05 Oct 2016 13:00:00 GMTLooking at Seasons in Nature & Life As Messengers for Greater Self AwarenessFor many ages, people relied on the cycles and seasons of the Earth in every facet of their lives. Yet today we are largely disconnected from nature and the natural cycles that are still so much a part of our existence here on Mother Earth. What messages about natural processes and cycles of transformation are available to us when we look at seasons in the natural world and in our lives? Also, what roles do the feminine aspects of God/Higher Conciousness play in our understanding of cycles and seasons? For centuries, Goddesses were primary God-figures. How can resurrecting the Goddess in God help us to better move through the seasons of our selves and our lives? And what does Fall, in particular, teach us about ourselves? We hope you'll explore the ancient wisdom of seasons and cycles with us today to give you inspiration for being present in the seasons of your life! 01:08:00Spiritual CharlottenoFall,Autumn,Seasons,spirituality,the sacred feminineLife's Seasons Are Often Overlooked As Spiritual Messengers - Today we talk about Cycles, Seasons, and the symbolism of Fall in particular, as we draw on ancienhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2016/09/28/weve-got-more-to-say-about-sistering-as-part-of-the-spiritual-journeySpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2016/09/28/weve-got-more-to-say-about-sistering-as-part-of-the-spiritual-journey/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/spiritualcharlotte/2016/09/28/weve-got-more-to-say-about-sistering-as-part-of-the-spiritual-journeyWed, 28 Sep 2016 13:30:00 GMTWe've Got More To Say About Sistering As Part of The Spiritual Journey!Kendall Heath and Debbie Chisholm of Spiritual Charlotte continue their conversation on sistering as part of the spiritual journey. There is a difference between standard women friendships and sistering. What is that difference and why do you need sistering? In contrast, what does it look like to be unsistered and to unsister others in your life? How does sistering take self love and unconditional love to the next level? You might not know you even need more and deeper sistering, but have a listen and see if this is something missing or underrepresented in your life, that you can begin to work on today! 01:02:00Spiritual Charlottenospirituality,sistering,womens issues,feminism,Glennon Doyle MeltonOur second episode on the growing popularity of the topic of Sistering might be better than the first one!

On the spiritual journey, there seems to be lots of books! Spiritual study is so broad that it has to be a personal undertaking, one where your intuition leads you to the next piece of information that you need. Books with spiritual subjects from one end of the spectrum to the other end up being the primary teachers (along with life experiences, of course). Well, in actuality, the authors of books end up being the primary teachers. Today Kendall and Debbie will be discussing the books that have crossed their paths on the road of self-discovery and personal awakening, and they'll also talk briefly about the titles next in line on their book bucket lists. With book audio apps, there's no excuse today for even non-readers. So, let's talk about the books that have knocked us on our asses with their mystical truths and paradigm shattering sentences!
