Spiritual Slang
by spiritualslang
Spiritual Slang is a podcast hosted by me—Shannelle Ortiz! I'm an LA native, and have no filter when it comes to the issues I've been through, and how I've gotten through them—3 words, Won't He Do It! And by He, I mean God. You can expect lighthearted (sometimes heavy), transparent and always entertaining conversations about experiences/struggles that we've all been through, but rather not talk about. In life, relationships, friendships, careers, and more. Spiritual Slang is here to let you know that you’re not alone, and encourage you that there is a light at the end of every dark tunnel. Join me on this journey @spiritualslang

Stay the course
We're back with a little surprise episode! I recorded this some months ago, but am releasing now because it's very timely. When you move in what God calls you to do, there may come a point where you'll have to remind yourself to just "stay the course." It's something I always have to tell myself...

-
My mind vs. me
I named this episode My Mind vs. Me because for a long time I felt like my mind was working against me instead of for me. From constant self-critiques to wasting time in my head instead of being present, it felt like a hidden battle that I was never going to win. Then I finally decided, I didn’t...

Waiting
At some point in our life, we’re all going to be required to wait for something. Wait for the next opportunity, wait for the chance to do something, wait for the right time to start a business, wait for the right time to leave a place or someone, wait for the right relationship. Sometimes you'll…

Your why is everything
In this episode, I talk about the why behind everything we do. The why that keeps us going. The why behind the thoughts we think. The why behind the choices we make. It's all about becoming self-aware enough to ask ourselves why we do things that hurt us instead facing the root of the issue to...

Faith steps
There are moments in our lives where we're called to make BIG life decisions that really test your faith. The type of decisions that would have you question everything around you. The type of decisions that evoke fear, doubt, worry — all of that, but something in you is still telling you to do…

It’s probably imposter syndrome

Letting go of control
Control issues, the need to be in control, wanting to know the outcome of every situation, wanting things to pan out in the timing that you want them to happen in — either way, we have to learn to let go. Why? Because things don't always happen the way we want them to, but in the end God's plan…
more -
Rejection issues
I put myself on full blast for this episode, but it was worth the growth. Struggling with rejection was one of the things that came with the fact that I grew up without a dad. I thought that since my dad rejected me, everyone else would too, which led to lots of self sabotaging and lots of pain....
-
The middle
The middle? You’re not at your lowest, but you’re not at your highest. You’re putting in the work, but not seeing the fruit yet. Waiting for the next. Feeling stuck. Unsure of where you’re going. In the unknown. Uncomfortable. That’s what it feels like in the middle. Join me as I talk about how…

Dadless, but not fatherless
It took me 26 years to finally say out loud that I didn't know who my dad was. The reason is because I was simply ashamed to admit that I didn't have something that the people around me had. Although it was this big secret, the insecurities and issues that came as a result of that fact weren't a...
-
Good ol’ comparison
Comparison—whether big or small, it happens to all of us, but why? Maybe because we live in a world where we're consumed with watching others live their life? Not sure, but what I do know is, I've had my fair share of moments where I thought I wasn't good enough after looking at someone else's...
-
You don’t know what you need
Why is it that we can sometimes operate out of a needy mentality? What we currently have just isn't enough. In this episode, I dive into what I learned when I realized that everything I need, I have. And, if I don't have it then I don't need it.
-
You’re good
In this episode, I dive into the idea that it's okay not to be okay, perfectionism, and how to remind yourself that you're good even when you don't feel good.
-
Something’s gotta give
The questions was, is, and will always be—what are you willing to give up in order to be your highest self and walk in purpose? I learned through walking with God and creating this podcast that something's always gotta give.
