Hidden Wisdom
Hidden Wisdom is the next iteration of the Latter-day Disciples Podcast. Hidden Wisdom exists to guide spiritually seeking souls—especially those rooted in Christ—to heal shame, restore divine identity, and walk in covenant wholeness. Through mentorship, scripture, and sacred embodiment, we uncover eternal truths that have been buried by culture, tradition, or fear. We walk the path of the Restored Eve—returning to the Garden through Christ, and preparing ourselves as disciples for what is to come.
Hidden Wisdom is hosted by Meghan Farner, mentor, author of “Consider Yourself as Eve: A Guide to Spiritual Development for Women (and the Men Who Love Them.), and spiritual life coach. Meghan provides 1:1, group, and couples mentorship to help women embrace their divine femininity, connect with God, and ascend.
