Meet the Team

Jordan Schroeder
Founder, Writer, and Editor

Hello there! I'm Jordan, a South African soul journeying through life in Germany. With an insatiable thirst for knowledge and a deep-rooted spiritual essence, I’ve dedicated myself to holistic growth - nurturing mind, body, and soul. Holding a PhD in my field, my academic pursuits have always intertwined with a quest for spiritual connection, a blend perhaps inspired by my formative years in a Catholic school enriched with diverse beliefs.

When I'm not writing words for Spirited Earthling, you'll find me immersed in books, capturing nature's beauty through photography, savouring a comforting cup of tea, or plotting the next adventure with a twinkle in my eye.

Daniel
Partner, Sounding Board, and Part-Time Editor

Daniel is not just my partner in life but also the silent force that breathes life into Spirited Earthling (and our travel blog Timeless Voyagers). Serving as my confidant, chief supporter, and occasional editor, our journey together is a beautiful mix of adventures and cosy nights in. We enjoy deep conversations, cherish moments of solitude, seek nature's embrace, and aren’t afraid to treat ourselves. Together, we're moving along a path that's authentically ours, even if it looks a little different to others.

The Story of Spirited Earthling Blog

In 2021, amidst the world's pause, Spirited Earthling aimed to be a sanctuary for those with curious minds and spiritual hearts. Born from a blend of scientific inquiry and soulful exploration, our platform seeks to bridge the tangible with the transcendent.

Here, you'll find resources that fortify your roots while guiding you toward higher connections - be it with yourself, the universe, or any higher power you resonate with. Our mission is clear: to make self-development, self-care, and spiritual practices both accessible and affordable.

Navigating the vast realms of self-discovery and spirituality can be daunting. Spirited Earthling aspires to be both your compass and companion, offering pathways to explore, ponder, and embrace. Whether a topic resonates deeply or merely piques your curiosity, remember—every journey is personal, and there's no singular path to enlightenment.
