Neighbors, Community and Counterweights with Shannan Martin

Neighbors, Community and Counterweights with Shannan Martin

We are living in a heavy time. Isolation and loneliness are commonplace. We feel like the weight of the world is on our shoulders. We long for community yet don't always see a way to find it amidst the hardship and vitriol coming at us from all sides. Today's guest is here to offer us insights, steps and hope when it comes to letting ourselves feel the discomfort of our feelings while also embracing the need for community in our lives. Shannan Martin and Jessica discuss: ⚫︎ The importance of feeling awkward when it comes to making connections ⚫︎ How to connect to your real life neighbors (even the ones you don't agree with) ⚫︎ Why counterweights are vital in order to survive the world right now ⚫︎ Holding multiple feelings at once This is a powerful conversation for anyone who desires to feel more grounded and connected wherever they are in the world right now. Shannan Martin, best-selling author of Start with Hello, The Ministry of Ordinary Places, and the popular Substack, The Soup, is a voracious reader, a wannabe-gardener, a news-geek, a justice-fighter, and a thrift store-stalker. She and her family live as grateful neighbors in Goshen, Indiana, where Shannan is on staff at the local community kitchen. Her forthcoming book, Counterweights: An Essential Practice for Holding Hope in a Heavy World, releases in Spring of 2026.
