Narrated with the calm wisdom of a bodhisattva, this inspiring audiobook offers a plan for achieving true happiness, both as individuals and as citizens of the universe. The author’s writing, void of pretense and full of humanitarian energy, makes it easy for listeners to loosen their emotional bindings, absorb her inspiring stories, and explore their connections with others. Her book is fundamentally about faith—about whether we allow ourselves to spiral into pessimistic isolation or decide to believe that all of us have a tremendous opportunity for joy and community. With a palpable altruistic tone from start to finish, Zander invites us to share our new freedom with people who are still struggling and to become a personal conduit for the positive energy available in the world.
