Replay: On the Brink of Everything with Parker Palmer Pt. 2
Episode description
In a world that often encourages us to wear masks, authenticity simply means living by your core values. It's about boldly being yourself, shedding the years spent behind social facades, and embracing the courage to be truly genuine.
Today, we're revisiting a favorite past episode as we dive into part two of our conversation with Parker Palmer. Parker, a renowned writer, speaker, and founder of the Center for Courage & Renewal, takes us on a journey of self-discovery.
