WTF is a Spiritual Mentor?

People are often so curious about what it is I do for work. And when I say that, “I’m a Spiritual Mentor” - I often get one of those questioning head tilts, that says “You’re a WHAT? Like WTF does that even mean, KK?” Ha!

So today on the Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about the Fearless Flow Mentoring that I offer, who it’s really for and why I started doing this kind of work in the first place.

Over the years, as simply a person with relationships - but especially as a yoga teacher, as a student + guide of A Course in Miracles, as a Passage Meditation practitioner and as a Gateless Writing Teacher - I’ve talked to and witnessed so many people who’ve shared with me their personal stories and fear feelings of sickness, sadness, separation, scarcity, smallness, shame and supposed sin, etc.

Combine this whole being human experience - that is so often filled with trauma, loss, grief and all kinds of unimaginable brutality and violence - with also feeling disconnected from your true Self, your life purpose, from God, or your Source in Love and in Spirit and you have a hard-core recipe for suffering.

And because of this, people often start to live from a place of hopelessness, helplessness, anxiety, confusion, depression, addiction or distress - which in turn leaves us feeling defeated, stressed out, unworthy, and painfully unlovable - which can suck the joy right the feck’ out of our bodies, relationships, our creativity, and our lives.

I believe that peace and happiness are our natural inheritance. They are our birthright… so if we aren’t feeling these suckers on a consistent basis, then we know that we have a problem.

Since your own best thinking has gotten you to where you are right now - it makes complete sense to call in some help (and trust me, we ALL need a little bit of help at times) - so you can learn how to shift your mind, choose differently, surrender your suffering, transform Your Story to Your Glory and to start navigating your life from a place of love & light, instead of fear!

So, when people ask me what I do, I explain, “I work with people who’ve had more than their fair share of wicked hard shit happen to them. I help them lead a life like nothing bad has ever happened.”

I know the power of this 1:1 Spiritual Mentoring work and I know the tangible results my clients get.
