What happens when siblings separated by fifteen years sit down to explore spiritual questioning, personal growth, and the courage to face our deepest fears? Welcome to the first episode of Supernaught, where host Beth Kelling invites her older brother Steve to share the moment that changed her spiritual trajectory forever.Growing up in rural Minnesota where even yoga was considered taboo, Beth recalls the pivotal moment she overheard Steve declare he was "renouncing Christianity until he researched every other religion." This single statement opened a door Beth didn't know existed—the permission to question inherited beliefs and find her own spiritual truth.Steve reveals his decade-long journey away from the narrow religious views of their childhood, where their pastor claimed members of other Christian denominations were "going to hell." He challenges the arbitrary nature of religious affiliation—"Where you're born decides what religion"—and shares how this questioning led him to a place where he now "believes almost nothing" yet finds peace in that uncertainty.The conversation weaves through mental health territory, exploring how depression stems from both thought patterns and biochemistry. Beth shares her discovery that B vitamins trigger her depression due to a genetic mutation, highlighting how our mental state isn't always within our conscious control.Most powerfully, the siblings discuss fear as a gateway to growth. Steve passionately advocates for confronting fears directly: "If they recognize something in themselves that creates fear or anxiety, go straight into it instead of avoiding it." Beth reflects on her journey from crying through high school presentations to confidently hosting this podcast, and how initially dreaded experiences like cold plunging have become transformative practices.The episode concludes with Beth embracing "doing hard things" as her spiritual practice—a fitting philosophy for someone hosting a podcast named after the concept of a "voyager searching and striving for betterment."Ready to question your assumptions, face your fears, and discover your own authentic path?
