What Is Your Soft Hobby Preparing You For? Reflections from Octavia Butler's "Parable of the Sower"

Hey Lovelies,Sometimes the quiet things we love are doing the deepest work in us. In this episode of Soul Loveth with Shan, I’m sharing how picking up reading again — and choosing Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower — has been stirring something powerful in me. Butler’s words about preparation, resilience, and self-sufficiency feel like a mirror for the times we’re living through.This is a soft conversation about the small, sacred ways we get ready for what’s ahead — even when we don’t realize it.As you listen, take a moment to ask yourself:• What gifts are your quiet joys planting in you right now?• How might your soft hobby be growing the strength you’ll one day need?Let’s honor the slow becoming - nothing we do is without purpose.To support our initiative to cultivate authenticity to youth (whom the world deems "at risk" please visit www.soulloveth.com for more information about our mission.
