Sacred Conversation with J.S. Park, hospital chaplain and author of the astoundingly profound and beautifully poetic book, As Long As You Need: Permission to Grieve. For many months, I have been excited to have and to share this conversation with you. J.S. feels, lives, speaks, and writes in a mystic poetry that moves me deeply and calls me back home to our sacredness within. In our conversation here, we celebrate our kindred childhood soul architecture; revel in what it means to find refuge in closets, under beds, and in the back seats of cars; draw a compassionate portrait of what it means to attend a dying; wander over the territories of Love, grief, and the spiritual First Space (aka third space, liminal space) of stillness and witness; and taste the fruit of the paths available to us for Joy's harvest. You may find J.S.'s work on Instagram at @jspark3000.

Sacred Conversations are periodic episodes of my podcast in which I reach out to people whose work and life inspire me, and we simply have an old fashioned phone conversation. No video. No scripted, transactional, extractive, one-sided interview dynamic. Just two people with a care and curiosity for each other’s journey, asking each other soulful questions, and enjoying the ancient, mutually healing art of listening deeply. Again, not an interview. A spiritual communion. The idea is for us to relax and enjoy an organic conversation, like over tea or breaking bread, and get to know each other along the way.

In this emotionally fertile Sacred Conversation with Nova Reid, producer, writer, speaker, and author of the book, The Good Ally, we commune over the vital importance for Black Women (and marginalized souls) of gathering together in safe affirmation, celebration, purpose finding, soul gardening, and healing. This conversation fed me richly in ancestor dreams. You may learn more about Nova's journey and brilliant work at novareid.com.
