Guest: Rev. Cindy Grimes

The saying, “We teach what we most want to learn,” explains Cindy Grimes’ passion for Centers for Spiritual Living. From the moment she walked in the door at CSL Ocala, as a spiritual seeker over 20 years ago, Cindy knew she had found her spiritual home. “The philosophy and genuine love of this community empowered me to reframe my life’s traumas and dramas into agents of growth and transformation. I found the courage to be myself and learned to love who I found beneath the roles, responsibilities and expectations of my life. I couldn’t help but share the teaching with others,” she says. Cindy not only found her spiritual community—she found her call to ministry. By 2015, she completed CSL’s practitioner training and ministerial program, graduating with a master’s degree in Consciousness Studies. In addition to serving as Spiritual Director of CSL Ocala, Cindy has been an entrepreneur, social worker, teacher, editor, magazine publisher, workshop facilitator and restorative practices trainer. She uses these experiences and life as a wife, mother and grandmother to inform her messages, making them down-to-earth, relevant and engaging. Her intention is that everyone who finds CSL Ocala feels that same sense of coming home to the essence of who they are.

Guest: Diana Soroka of WILDD Hearts!

I’m Diana, founder of WILDD Hearts. My life has been a beautifully messy mix of love, loss, triumphs, screw-ups, and positive intentions. Through it all, I've learned that growth doesn’t happen in neat and pretty moments—it’s in the raw, unfiltered experiences. I’m here to help others like me who are on their own journey of self-discovery and growth, knowing it’s not always smooth, but it’s always worth it.

I believe the world needs more love and that real love starts with you…facing yourself—flaws, fears, and all.

Tools like the Enneagram have been instrumental in my own growth, leading me (and many others) through the challenges and breakthroughs of self-discovery. My mission is to help others embrace their truth, find joy, and spread peace and kindness in their lives and the world around them.

I’ve spent years teaching and leading, but my real passion is sharing what I’ve learned (and am still learning) about living authentically. Sometimes, I’m the hero of my story, sometimes the villain, but I’m always reflecting and evolving.

WILDD Hearts is my heart and soul work, and I’m excited to share this journey with you—because when we tell our stories, we grow together.
