Spirit Matters

Today's diverse and abundant spiritual landscape offers enormous opportunity for learning and growth. Here, author, spiritual counselor, and public speaker Philip Goldberg draws on more than 50 years of experience to host conversations that can help you make sense of it all and transform your life. You’ll meet teachers, scholars, and experts from a range of traditions (and no tradition), some who are well-known, others who should be well known, all with wisdom to impart. The aim is to help you expand your awareness and deepen your practices as you move along your chosen path.

Note: Both Phil and Spirit Matters itself are members of the Association for Spiritual Integrity and pledge to abide by its Honor Code of Ethics and Good Practice. Interview guests are expected to uphold similar standards; those who are proven to exploit or abuse will not be platformed.
