Waking Up in the World: Four Coffee and Conversation Sessions

Heal our Hearts

Cultivate Courage

Inspire Action

In our world today we are facing many issues: climate change, poverty, wars, racism, homophobia, ageism, strange politics, etc, etc. Now more than ever, people are being called to grow and develop, and to bring forward their own unique voices and gifts to solve our very real social problems. ,

This series was developed by Sounds True in response to the despair, anger, & heartbreak we are hearing from community. The series brings together some of the most inspiring spiritual teachers and social visionaries to help us work with our emotions and inspire us to move forward with love, courage and wise action for a better world.

ENGAGE YOUR COMPASSION: No matter how much pain and struggle we experience, we can still act from a core of love—an inexhaustible reservoir of energy and renewal. .

TRAIN IN NEW CAPACITIES: Develop key skills for “engaged spirituality”—such as cultivating peace in the midst of suffering, tapping into your unique gifts, and finding the link between spiritual work and social transformation.

ACT WITH COURAGE AND LOVE: Follow your calling to contribute and serve in your own way—and realize you are never alone.
