Ebb and Flow: Finding God and Inner Peace Through Poetry and the Ocean

In this episode, Shirah Chante, a relationship coach and artist, welcomes teenagers, parents, and those who work with teens to draw near to God and help youth reach their destiny. She discusses the inception of the podcast, inspired by her son's pre-teen years, and emphasizes the importance of guiding teens through their formative years. The episode features a reading and in-depth discussion of the poem 'Ebb and Flow,' which explores the connection between life's rhythms and the ocean's tides, and underscores the spiritual journey of finding peace and letting go of control. The host encourages listeners to embrace self-control, flow with life's movements, and find meditative solace by the sea. She concludes by inviting listeners to reflect on their experiences and set personal goals through her platform, hearmygod.com.
