What if the things that unite us are far greater than the things that divide us?

In this thought-provoking episode of God of Dirt, Dana Conlan sits down with Adrianne Smith for an honest conversation about spirituality, faith, healing, and the shared human desire to connect with something greater than ourselves. Coming from different backgrounds and perspectives, Dana and Adrianne explore what it means to seek truth, cultivate compassion, and recognize the divine image reflected in every person.

Together, they discuss the beauty of nature as a meeting place with God, the challenges many people face within religious institutions, and the importance of looking beyond labels to find genuine human connection. Through vulnerability and respectful dialogue, this conversation invites listeners to embrace curiosity, humility, and a deeper appreciation for the common ground that exists between us.

In this episode:

  • Finding connection with the divine through nature
  • Navigating spiritual differences with grace and respect
  • Healing from religious hurt and disappointment
  • Recognizing our shared humanity beyond beliefs and labels
  • Why curiosity and compassion are essential for meaningful connection

Whether you come from a strong faith background, a different spiritual tradition, or are simply exploring life's deeper questions, this episode offers a refreshing reminder that connection begins when we choose to listen, understand, and see one another as fellow travelers on the journey.

Because sometimes the path back to our people, place, and purpose begins with discovering just how much we have in common.
