Breathing Underwater: Mindy Caliguire on Burnout and Renewal
We’re excited to share a conversation that Soul Care Founder Mindy Caliguire recently had with Renovare’s Nathan Foster on the Life with God podcast. Together, they explored the profound need for soul care in today’s chaotic world and the transformative practices that help us stay spiritually grounded.
