Episode Description

Legendary Washington Post journalist Sally Quinn joins Daisy Khan for an extraordinary conversation about spiritual transformation, authentic faith, and the courage to create your own sacred path. Sally shares how she moved from atheism to becoming a woman of deep spirituality while founding the groundbreaking "On Faith" section at the Washington Post.

In this dialogue, Sally reveals how she "cherry-picked" from different religions to create a faith that truly resonated with her soul, why the golden rule became the foundation of her spiritual practice, and how silent retreats helped her integrate the sacred and sensual aspects of human experience. She also discusses her latest novel, "Silent Retreat," which explores love and intimacy within spiritual community and shares her perspective on America's current spiritual crisis.

This conversation touches on universal themes of authentic self-expression, the healing power of community gatherings, and why "being yourself" might be the most sacred act of all. Sally's journey reminds us that spirituality doesn't have to fit traditional molds and that sometimes the most genuine faith comes from questioning.
