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, we talk about uncertainty and how it can be so painful and cornering, that the only thing we (often) end up feeling is tremendous fear. And also...uncertainty marks a threshold, a place of the Unknown and Mystery where all things are possible because no things are yet determined which means we are being gifted something HUGE: the opportunity to pay attention and see a bigger horizon.
We honor how this is not easy or trite and explore what it would feel like to grow in our ability to abide with uncertainty until we can see the amazing sense of possibility it brings (even if we're still feeling afraid).
There are more dog sounds in this podcast, a few yawns and gurgles from the jackhuahua in my life. There is also me singing a totally made up, not rhyming, not particularly good song, and an invitation to affirm that it is ok, always, to not know something. Here is the link to the comic I drew and mention in the episode. I hope you join me this week for Everything Speaks if You Listen!

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 few weeks, 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!
