When Good Intentions Aren’t Enough: The Courage to Wake Up, Grieve, and Act

This week on SoulStream: Living from the Heart, we’re joined by writer, coach, and spiritual leader Kerry Connelly for a wide-ranging and deeply human conversation.During our conversation we cover the themes of contemplation, justice, and healing.We discuss Pause, her first book—a devotional for busy souls longing to stay grounded in the sacred amid the chaos. We explore how silence can become a spiritual practice of resistance and how reimagining the language we use for God opens up more space for love.During the majority of the podcast, Kerry reflects on her anti-racism work, including her books Good White Racist and Wait—Is This Racist?, and the discomfort—and necessity—of naming systems we’ve been shaped by but often struggle to see and talk about. She speaks with honesty and care about grief, privilege, white identity, and the courageous inner work that leads to authentic action.LinksKerry’s WebsitePhoto: Kerry’s InstagramSoulStreamSoulStreamThe Art of Spiritual Direction Training CourseLiving from the HeartUpcoming Events, Courses and Retreats This is a public episode.
