Ep 87: Setting Intentions: Evolving and Growing Out Of Our Old Versions

“There seems to be no purpose to your meditation if you don’t set the intention” - Leslieann Hobayan

Welcome to Spiritual Grit Podcast! New name, new logo but same topics, with just a little more edge.

Today's podcast is about intention. Intention is everything -- it is the thing that makes the difference where it allows us to evolve and grow out of our old versions. Ask yourself: Is setting the intention helping you grow? Is it helping you evolve from the place you were when you started? Why sit in meditation if you just end up being in the same place? These are just some questions to ponder.

Listen along to this full episode as we figure out ways to take action for social justice while deep in our spiritual work, how to bridge both of them through the power of intention.
