The Spiritual Case for Side Quests | Why Saying Yes to Random Things Is Actually God's Plan

What if the most aligned move you can make has nothing to do with your five-year plan?In this episode, Jamie Roddy makes the spiritual case for side quests... not the dramatic ones, but the small inconvenient yeses that somehow change everything. She shares how a golden Buddha in Chiang Mai led to the founding of Eden LA Interiors, and how talking to a stranger on a flight to Colombia led her to Uganda, and why she believes they're the same story: universe puts something in your path, you stay open, and everything changes.Pulling from Sufi mysticism, the Bhagavad Gita, quantum physics, and Zen teacher Shunryu Suzuki's concept of beginner's mind, Jamie explores why side quests aren't a distraction from alignment, they're one of its primary mechanisms. Plus three practical tools for saying yes again when you've quietly stopped, and a closing meditation to help you identify what door has been tapping you on the shoulder.
