What happens when you’re living one life, and you suddenly receive clear spiritual instructions to live another? In this 75-minute conversation facilitated by poet and bone-thrower Kim Stoll, author Kati Standefer, brewery owner/founder Julie Vernon, and Ninth House owner/founder Melisa Doran Cole discuss their experiences being told there was a thing they must do.
For Melisa, the message to open a shop came in a dream while she was running a different business; for Julie, the conception of opening Crooked Tooth Brewery arrived clearly one divine evening as she sat with her husband. Kati took three shocks to the heart from her implanted cardiac defibrillator, and in the aftermath felt a question drop into her body, which she could not ignore--a journey that became her first book, Lightning Flowers: My Journey To Uncover the Cost of Saving A Life. This dialogue will center on the murky process of listening to Spirit, taking risks based on breadcrumbs of information, and the spiralic way a soul-led career forces one to become the person who can do what they are called to.
