From the moment we open our eyes, we are meaning-seeking creatures, looking for what matters though we carry what matters deep within us. And more than the hard-earned understandings we arrive at, more than the principles or beliefs we stitch together out of our experience, how we stay in relationship to the mysterious Whole of Life is what brings us alive and keeps us alive. Everyone knows firsthand that life is messy and painful, beautiful and unpredictable. The endless practice is keeping our heart open to the whole of it. And the journey of becoming who we were born to be never ends. It’s limitless, eternal. We don’t arrive—we grow. I believe and give my heart to the notion that spirituality is listening for and living into the soul’s place on Earth.

Some of you might remember the "Priceless Pricing" pod -- if not, check out Colin's insightful recap of the questions it raised. :) This is the first time I am offering my course under "Priceless Pricing" -- something I learned from ServiceSpace! No financial contribution is required to join and participate in the six-week program. At the end of the program, you will have an opportunity to give financially any amount that feels good to you, from a little to infinity. The only requirements to join are an open heart, an open mind, the commitment to show up every week for the work, and the willingness to step into the sacred and joyful practice of deepening your own Wisdom while holding space for everyone else's. |
