Allowing myself to believe in something bigger than myself, to have the spirituality to it, is all related to where I'm at right now. Today, as I sit here, I think the word god does intimidate people, and you know you would use the word you know, or offended and I don't.
What does it mean to find your own spiritual path? In this episode, Elizabeth Chance opens up about her journey from a traditional Roman Catholic upbringing to embracing a more personal form of spirituality. Raised in a structured religious environment, Elizabeth often felt the weight of its expectations and found herself envious of friends with seemingly clearer belief systems. However, through her experiences, she discovered a different way to connect with something greater than herself.
Elizabeth shares how spirituality, rather than organized religion, has played a pivotal role in her recovery from alcoholism. She dives into the differences between spirituality and religion, the benefits of having a spiritual practice, and the hurdles that come with organized religion. Elizabeth also discusses the significance of service in her spiritual journey and how letting go of rigid expectations has brought her peace.
This episode invites listeners to reflect on their own beliefs and consider what truly resonates with them. Whether you're questioning your faith or seeking a deeper connection, Elizabeth's story offers a heartfelt perspective on finding meaning and purpose.
