Play Episode

Celia McBride is an author, playwright, cinematographer, and artist. She's also a spiritual director who helps others on their own path of seeking. In her work, she draws on her own experience of healing and spirituality, which has been anything but a straight and narrow path.

In our conversation today, we talk about:

  • the nature of addiction: what motivates it, what fuels it, and what's essential to become free of it 
  • perfectionism: our deep desire to feel connection and belonging
  • the path of seeking: trusting our personal path to meaning

Celia McBride

Author/Spiritual Director

After a successful career as a theatre artist and filmmaker, Celia began her practice of spiritual direction, accompanying others on their individual spiritual journeys. In 2022, she published a memoir, “O My God: An Un-Becoming Journey”, about the experience of feeling called to become a nun and her personal discovery that “everything I was searching for I already am.” She accompanies the elderly and the dying in long-term care, which helps her to cultivate the practice of Presence. Celia’s creative work includes painting, dancing and performing and she is happiest speaking and leading retreats for like-minded seekers and those who are also struggling to live fully on the healing journey of life.
