Do you desire a more connected and mutual life with God?
Spiritual Direction offers a safe place and a gentle voice
for discovering more of God in the moments of your real life.
A Safe Place…
to be honest and messy, with more questions than answers, with more unknown than known. A place where this will be met with acceptance, curiosity, and compassion.
A Gentle Voice…
that notices, that asks questions without agenda, that witnesses to where you are in the present moment and leaves room for the Holy Spirit’s invitations.
A Generous Life…
through my book and blog, sharing personal stories of my experiences with God as steppingstones into your own stories. Because our stories matter.
Meet Juli
My journey in spiritual direction began during a challenging season when my typical engagement with God – through Bible study, prayer, and serving – began to feel dry and disconnected. Then I discovered spiritual direction. Through this ministry of presence, I experienced God in ways that were deepening and expansive, ways that stretched into my ordinary, everyday, and challenging moments, ways that surprised me. And ever so slowly, this brought freedom and healing.
And while that personal journey (always) continues, my desire is to offer safe spaces for others to discover a deeper and more expansive knowing of God, and God’s gifts. I offer this through spiritual direction, the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises, guided group contemplative practices, and the stories in my book and on this website. LEARN MORE
What is Spiritual Direction
Spiritual direction is a safe place for God-seekers… those who desire a deeper experience and more in a life with God. This form of soul care offers someone trained in listening and discernment to journey with another in their spiritual life. It’s a practice of hospitality and prayer, of coming alongside another to notice and draw nearer to God in all of life.

Experiencing God in the Hard, Unexpected
and Unfinished
God desires to communicate and participate in our everyday, ordinary lives – especially when it’s hard. This collection of stories recount the creative, kind and generous way God engaged with me and invited me towards life. There is room for you in these pages as well – to engage your stories and find your connections. Because God desires to reveal goodness to you too.
