In this episode of Belonging to the Wild, Dr. Ellman and I explore the question of finding a new spiritual home after loss of spiritual home and identity, or what some refer to as deconstruction.

Is it possible to find a home by another way? Her research focuses on this question. By exploring the experience of folks who found a new sense of spiritual home and identity after this loss, Dr. Ellman identified 5 shifts that happened as they followed their own knowing into new spiritual homes, identities, and practices.

Lacy Clark Ellman, DMin, has a doctorate in Transforming Spirituality, a certificate in spiritual direction, and was selected as a New Contemplative by Spiritual Directors International in 2015. Professionally, she is a spiritual companion and spiritual formation educator who speaks the language of pilgrimage. Personally, she is a lover of food, books, spirituality, growing and making things, far-off places, and lovely spaces. While she's currently focusing on family, you can find her recent work and connect with her at asacredjourney.net.
