Britt Hartley

Britt Hartley is an atheist spiritual director, author, and educator specializing in religious deconstruction, nihilism recovery, and secular meaning-making. With a Master's Degree in Applied Theology and two decades of studying world religions, she guides people through the collapse of inherited belief systems and into a grounded, psychologically honest reconstruction. Her work sits at the intersection of existential philosophy, and nonreligious spirituality, offering tools, not doctrines, for those navigating life without cosmic guarantees.

Britt is the founder of No Nonsense Spirituality, where she teaches courses and offers coaching on topics like death anxiety, spiritual reconstruction, shadow work, and raising children after faith. Her writing and videos have helped thousands of people move beyond despair and toward lives of clarity, connection, and courage. She is currently working with the Center of Non-Religious Spirituality to train a cohort of 60 people in spiritual direction and how to do nihilism coaching with others.
