    13. What needs to die in me and what do I need to give birth to? with Glenda Goodrich, from Nurse to Human Resources to Art Doula

    All of us long to be seen for our unique gifts. Too often this innate part of us was extinguished in our early years, or put aside because of fear or practicality. How can we interrupt our busy lives and careers to check in with our authentic selves? What if the pathway to our deepest wisdom can be unlocked through time in nature? Glenda had an early career as a nurse, before shifting to Human Resources, progressing through to Vice President. A mid-life awakening caused her to seek a new path, becoming an artist, art doula and author. Her book 'Solo Passage: 13 Quests, 13 Questions' is a profoundly honest memoir about Glenda's own experience of what it means to life an authentic life - and how nature holds the key. If you're ready for a mid-life breakthrough, or you're yearning to quiet the noise of modern life and access the ancient wisdom of time in nature - this heartfelt personal conversation is one for you. If you're longing to recover from heartache, bad decisions and past mistakes. If you're ready to forgive yourself and allow yourself to live authentically, let Glenda's wisdom from more than 13 solo quests be the gift you give yourself today.
