the REALIFE Practice Podcast

Welcome to the REALIFE Practice Podcast, Season 1: Solitude. In this episode, we'll introduce the theme of solitude and explore the concept of finding quiet spaces amidst the noise of everyday life. How can we identify sources of noise that keep us from quiet, both internal and external? You'll also hear practical guidance on incorporating solitude into daily routines to foster a deeper connection with God. Even a few minutes of solitude in your day can have a big impact, so we hope this episode inspires you to incorporate this practice into your life.
