Mentorship and Meaning: Redefining Success Through Connection with Tina Fox

What if spiraling isn't a sign that you're falling apart? In this episode of Sacred Stories of the Spirit, I sit down with intuitive tarot reader, educator, healer and U.S. Army veteran Evylyn Rose to explore a different understanding of growth, healing and personal evolution. Together, we discuss Evylyn's powerful metaphor of life as a spiral rather than a straight line. Instead of seeing ourselves as moving from one point to another, she invites us to consider how we revisit familiar lessons throughout our lives, each time bringing new wisdom, perspective and understanding. Along the way, we explore: • Why life may be better understood as a spiral than a straight line • The stories we inherit from family, culture and society • Rewriting narratives that no longer serve us • Military service, resilience and belonging • Tarot as a tool for storytelling and self-reflection • Storytelling as medicine in times of uncertainty • The journey of integrating the many parts of ourselves into a coherent whole At the heart of this conversation is a simple but profound question: What is the connecting thread that runs through every chapter of your life? For Evylyn, the answer is simple. "Me. It's me." This is a conversation about identity, integration, and finding yourself within the spiral of your own story.

What happens when curiosity becomes more than a learning tool, and instead becomes a pathway back to ourselves? In this opening episode of Series 3: Consciousness in the World of Work, Jordan sits down with leadership coach and learning and development specialist Kathryn Jackson to explore the deeper human questions behind performance,engagement and leadership. Together, they reflect on the growing fatigue facing middle managers, the pressure to separate our personal and professional selves, and the quiet role that spirituality -understood as connection, meaning and hope - can play in helping people navigate uncertainty. This conversation invites listeners to reconsider what it means to feel aligned at work, to reconnect with curiosity, and to notice the signals from our own inner landscape in a world that is moving faster than ever. If you've ever felt squeezed between expectations, searching for meaning in your work, or wondering how to bring more of yourself into the workplace, this episode is for you.

Entrepreneurship is often framed as freedom, innovation, and success — but beneath the surface, it can quietly activate anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, and a deep sense of over-responsibility.

What if your anxiety, exhaustion, insomnia or overwhelm weren’t signs that something is wrong with you — but signals your body is asking to be listened to?
