The work of a spiritual entrepreneur isn’t all rainbows and unicorns (although we wish it were!). A lot of the time, we’re helping clients navigate through difficult situations.
Situations like loss, grief, divorce, or illness.
Helping people go through the trauma around these sensitive subjects requires great compassion – something most sacred artists have naturally (it’s why we’re drawn to this work).
But sometimes, it’s hard to know what to do when a client is suffering. How can we best serve them when they are experiencing trauma?
And what about when the we’re going through our own tough situations? How can we ensure that we’re practicing the same kind of self care that we give to our clients?
We’re answering those questions and more in this episode of Talking Shop. And we’re bringing in the person we trust the most around the subject of trauma and loss, Martha Jo Atkins.
