Listen "Gail Straub on Embracing Our Human Family"
Episode Synopsis
“In radiant, lyrical prose, Gail Straub takes us on a voyage like no other, both into little-known places across the globe and, most memorably, the inner realms of the soul. …..this is a journey that no reader will forget and, I believe, all readers will, in their own way, hope to emulate.”
— Andrew Carroll
Author and empowerment pioneer Gail Straub’s latest book Home Inside the Globe: Embracing Our Human Family. This is Gail’s second time on Contemplify (hear our first conversation here), and like our previous conversation we find the heart of the conversation in the flow of presence in the sacred. The writing of Gail Straub inspires me to draw from the currents of our shared humanity, to witness and honor the profound connections that transcend all borders. I think she will do the same for you.
