How do we bring the sacred into our daily lives—into the way we work, rest, and move through the world?
In this episode, award-winning author and interspiritual teacher Mirabai Starr joins me to explore this question. Drawing from her new book, Ordinary Mysticism: Your Life as Sacred Ground, she reminds us that mysticism isn’t reserved for monks and saints—it’s alive in our daily routines, our work, and how we engage with the world.
We dive into the connection between spirituality and business, challenging beliefs about money and service while exploring ways to bring more presence and reverence to our work. Mirabai also shares insights on morning rituals, rest, the divine feminine, and writing as a form of prayer.
If you’re longing for deeper meaning in your business or seeking the sacred in the everyday, this conversation will inspire you to see life through fresh eyes.
