Have you ever felt like you're giving so much of yourself that you’ve lost touch with who you really are?
We’re diving into a soul-nourishing conversation with Dr. Saloumeh DeGood — licensed clinical psychologist and President of the Sufi Psychology Association.
Saloumeh bridges ancient Sufi wisdom with modern psychology to help us understand and reconnect with our true essence. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or spiritually disconnected, this episode might just be the balm your soul’s been seeking.
We explore:
- What Sufism actually is (hint: it’s more than Rumi + whirling dervishes!)
- How Sufi Psychology differs from traditional Western therapy
- The deeper meaning of self-knowledge and how it leads to transformation
- A powerful, heart-centered Sufi meditation technique
- Why burnout isn’t just emotional — it’s spiritual disconnection
- How to return to your true self beneath all the layers of thought, emotion, and identity
Plus, you'll hear how Saloumeh’s work helped frontline caregivers during the height of COVID, and how her spiritual approach is healing minds and hearts around the world.
This episode is your invitation to pause, breathe, and remember the deeper you.
