Holding Space Across Faith Traditions (Or None at All)
Linda Serepca joins Oui Talk Raw for a conversation centered on presence, discernment, and the deeper work of spiritual direction.
With over two decades of experience, Linda serves as Executive Director of the Charlotte Spirituality Center, where she leads training for future spiritual directors and supports individuals navigating faith, identity, and meaning. Her work draws from contemplative traditions, Ignatian spirituality, enneagram study, IFS-informed companionship, and twelve-step frameworks.
In this episode, Jennifer Busco and Linda explore what it actually means to sit with someone in their process — without trying to fix or rush it. They talk about the tension between structure and freedom in spirituality, how belief evolves over time, and what it looks like to hold space for people across different faith traditions, or none at all.
Linda also shares reflections from her work supporting individuals on death row, and how those experiences deepen her understanding of compassion, presence, and the human condition.
This is a conversation about slowing down, paying attention, and allowing meaning to unfold — not forcing it.
