Many people ask me about the difference between spiritual direction, coaching, and therapy. What exactly are they, and how might you know what you need? In this episode, I walk through how each of these forms of support serves a different purpose in the life of a Catholic seeking holiness. I explain how spiritual direction helps you discern God’s voice, how therapy supports emotional healing, and how coaching helps you take practical steps forward in your calling.If you’ve ever wondered which one you might need—or how they can work together—I hope this episode brings clarity and peace.And of course to coach with me, send me a DM on instagram @lisacanning. I would love to chat about how I can help.
