Welcome to Everything Speaks if You Listen with Jen CobbleWorks where we befriend our humanity and the Sacred through story, soul questions, and every day life.

In this week's episode, I share more about the sacred presence and magic already alive in our daily lives and how a reflection practice reminds us of this. Then, I lead you in a guided examen, an inner listening exercise where you look back on your day or week and then plan ahead a bit. We listen to moments of deep soul connection as well as deep soul disconnection and ask Spirit to tell us more about the significance of these ordinary, yet potent moments for us. We consider what is left undone in the day, where we might need to shore up boundaries, recommit to routines, and/or repair relationships with ourselves or others. And then we look ahead before we move ahead. We consider what we need to do and what we want to do going forward.

It's a compassionate, beautiful pause to help you let go, release, accept, and move on with love and integrity.

Links to the reflection resources I mention at the end are below. The first one is for my newsletter which regularly explores themes of inner listening and self-reflection from both a spiritual and pragmatic approach. Signing up also gives you a copy of a free mini book on the examen practice and my unique approach to it. *A quick note about newsletters: I send things weekly at the most. I easily get overwhelmed by a bunch of emails and strive to share at a respectful rate myself. I am always trying to honor both the deep, slow time of soul as well as the faster rhythm of everyday life, so expect newsletters to come from me 2-4 times a month and no more as a way to stay connected, but respect our need for space and quiet in our inboxes. ;)

I'm Jen Cobble Willhoite, a contemplative storyteller, spiritual tool designer, and life-long soul seeker. My path is formed and framed by questions more than answers. I'm more comfortable wondering and wandering about things spiritual than I am in ideology, religion, or dogma.

My soul language and connection with Spirit is primarily grounded in Celtic Spirituality, science, nature, seasonal cycles, myth, folklore, and stories of all kinds. I do have roots in progressive Christianity that I sometimes speak from. My tap root, though, is ordinary life. I believe enlightenment is rhythmic, unfolding, and found in our everyday experiences and selves. I also offer tools and courses on my modern interpretation of the examen: a daily ritual of looking back, looking within, and looking ahead to cultivate a rapport with your inner wisdom and the Sacred as you understand it.

Every week, I share an episode from my own spiritual explorations, offering invitations for you to explore these themes on your own. Thanks for journeying with me!
