program description It takes us so long to see where we are and even longer to see who we are, says John O’Donohue. But when your soul awakens, you begin to truly inherit your life. You leave the kingdom of fake surfaces, repetitive tasks and weary roles and slip deeper into the true adventure of who you are and who you are called to become.
That is when you realize how precious your time here is. You are no longer willing to squander your essence on undertakings that do not nourish your true self. You want your work to become an expression of your gift. You want your God to be wild and to call you to where your destiny awaits.
On this journey, you begin to see how the sides of your heart that seemed awkward, contradictory, and uneven are the plasces where the treasure lies hidden. You begin to become true to yourself.
