Program Details

What happens to listening when conversations become challenging?
How do we maintain a listening posture when what we hear threatens to shut us down or to drive us running in the opposite direction?
What do we need to remain present and connected as spiritual directors/deep listeners, especially when the conversations feel challenging?

These are the questions framing our next Continuing Education event called “Listening Together...with challenging conversations.” “Listening Together” happens twice a year (spring and fall) for budding and seasoned Spiritual Directors/Deep Listeners to experience a supportive community, engage in pertinent conversations, and gain practical insights that deepen our purpose and practice as spiritual directors/deep listeners.

Living into our vocations as spiritual directors/deep listeners, especially in these days, it is imperative to pause on a regular basis, connect with other listening companions, rehearse essentials and find enrichment to sustain the journey.” (John Kiemele, Spiritual Director & Director of The Listening Collective)
