A podcast on spiritual direction, guidance, contemplative practice, and connection. SDI Creative Director Matt Whitney hosts a wide range of conversations, stories, and perspectives on spiritual direction, contemplation, and community.
Spiritual companionship is a relationship in which a companion allows through deep listening the spiritual story of the other to unfurl. Through this relationship, the person seeking companionship is empowered to explore a deeper relationship with God, Allah, Tao, The Universe, or however you may refer to the Ground of All Being.
We are committed to supporting and growing access to spiritual companionship, across religious traditions and spiritual orientations, and the deep listening, open questions, and compassion this healing modality offers.

Rev. SeiFu Singh-Molares and Matt Whitney - Using Our Challenges as Gateways to Awareness
In this 20 minute conversation, SDI Executive Director Rev. SeiFu Singh-Molares and Creative Director Matt Whitney discuss how in challenging times, we can learn how to use these challenges as gateways to deeper awareness, understanding, and spiritual growth. Our work as spiritual directors and companions involves helping others through their own challenges, as well as tending to our own. We believe we can do more than just survive difficult times, we can thrive.
