Welcome to Loving the Imperfect podcast, a show for spiritual seekers and skeptics. I’m your imperfect host, Brianne Turczynski.

For ten years I’ve studied offerings from holy teachers and holy texts. I’m a teacher and a journalist who has listened to the stories of many people throughout the years. So I thought it was time to share a story or two about my journey and my thoughts on scripture and holy work from different faith traditions and practices: mostly from Sufi teachers, Buddhists, and Christian mystics.

So, join me as we imperfectly and clumsily make our way through each day mustering up compassion for the hours ahead.

Thank you for stopping by Loving the Imperfect! New episodes are uploaded bi-weekly!

    Today I'll talk about turgidity (I had to look it up too) and nourishment in our lives with a little help from Vita Sackville-West, Isak Dinesen, and Rolanda (a woman from Ukraine who I met in the park).

    Hello and Welcome to episode 4 of my fourth season: Lessons from Vita Sackville-West.

    How do we or our communities represent the old, established bush? What are the secret yearnings of our soul(s) that would promote creativity and newness in a community or in ourselves?

    This week I'll share some insight from Vita on this and I hope you will take some time this week to think about it too.

    Please consider sharing or subscribing to my new Substack Page!

    Thank you for being here!!
