Welcome to the SoulStream Living from the Heart podcast. In this episode, we’re joined by two dear friends, Esther Hizsa and Brent Unrau, for a heartfelt conversation about belonging—what it truly means to belong versus merely fitting in.
Esther, a spiritual director and author from Vernon, BC, shares wisdom from her journey of embracing authenticity and vulnerability. Brent, a therapist and spiritual director living in intentional community on Kingfisher Farm, offers reflections from his own life and practice. Together, we explore how belonging ties into our shared humanity, spiritual practices, and even moments of discomfort and growth.
This episode also delves into self-compassion and God’s unconditional love as we navigate feelings of disconnection and find our way back to our true selves. You’ll hear personal stories, practical insights, and thoughtful reflections that invite you to live more fully into the truth that you are deeply connected and already belong.
Don’t miss details about Esther and Brent’s upcoming retreat, Belonging: Coming Home to the Gift of Being Yourself, happening February 2025 on Bowen Island.
