Tune in as Karen chats with Becca Stevens, author of Practically Divine, Episcopal priest, justice entrepreneur, and founder of Thistle Farms which is home to female survivors of trafficking, prostitution, and addiction. Karen and Becca find a common love for the power of the table which symbolizes a coming together to heal in community and be welcoming hosts.
Whether our tables are set with lavish platters or just bags of potato chips, it is around gracious tables that we find connection and learn to be the heroes of our own stories. Through the power of love and grace, Karen and Becca share stories from their own lives and that of others that highlight how God blesses the broken road and that in our broken-openness there is resilience and healing.
In this episode, you will learn:
- About the connection-pillars: Exhibiting Empathy, Courage-Based Confidence, and Connecting Consciously
- How to connect to the divine through the power of rituals, community, and walks in the woods
- The reasons you should never underestimate the value of a bag of chips or a cup of tea
- How connection occurs when we realize we are all made of angels and dirt
