About Megan

Before pursuing training in Spiritual Direction through Sustainable Faith, I spent a number of years sitting with my own spiritual director monthly. Through that journey, I experienced freedom and perspective in ways I had hoped for, but which had felt just out of reach for years.


A born listener, I strive to be a trustworthy companion in your spiritual journey. Offering in-person spiritual direction in Lexington, Kentucky, I bring a welcoming presence, patient listening, and an ability to hold space for silence. Whether you are looking to find new ways to connect with God, struggling with life transitions, needing a space to ask questions, or just wanting to take stock of the state of your soul, I would be delighted to sit with you and listen alongside you.

What is Spiritual Direction?

Spiritual direction is an ancient tradition in the Church that is experiencing something of a resurgence today. It is inviting a trained listener to come alongside you and co-discern with you how God is active in your life.


Focus on the Present: Unlike counseling, which often goes back into the past to address old issues that keep you stuck today, spiritual direction focuses primarily on your experience of God in the here and now. Through slowing down, being quiet, and learning various spiritual practices such as Lectio Divina or Centering Prayer, spiritual direction makes space for us to pay attention to God.


The Rhythm: A typical rhythm is to meet about once a month. A lot happens in the in-between time, and director and directee trace God’s work along the way.


Note: Spiritual direction is not counseling, mentorship, or life-coaching. You may find in different seasons of life that you need one or more of these services to support your personal growth and health.


Spiritual direction may be a good fit for you if you have an established relationship with God, but find yourself wondering whether there might be more. Or maybe you feel stuck in your spiritual life or have questions you’re not sure you can ask out loud. (You can.)

The Seaglass Perspective

Life has a habit of tossing us around and wearing us down. Even the most seemingly comfortable life is not exempt from pain and suffering. But what if we were able to see how God has been with us all along? How He is making something beautiful out of us, out of our lives, and even our suffering?


The poem above is about a seaglass marble I found on the beach a few years ago. A marble is a pleasing object, a small sphere of glass that reflects and catches the light. But this seaglass marble had to have been tumbled in the waves for decades to get that completely frosted surface. When I saw it, I could hardly believe I was in the right place at the right time to find it when it finally washed up onto the shore.


I now wear it on a necklace as a reminder that God has been making something beautiful out of me through every experience, whether I deemed them good or bad. He has been making something breathtaking in me for years as I have let Him redeem, reshape, and redefine my story. I’m eager for others to experience this perspective shift as well—to know that nothing is wasted in God’s economy. I’d be honored to sit with you as you learn to pay attention to what God is doing in your life and soul in the here and now. Let’s catch the light together and watch as God does His slow, faithful work.
