Passionately Striving in Why

An Anthology of Women Who Persevere Mightily to Live Their Purpose

“In a world ever awakening to higher consciousness and heightened awareness of our planet’s tender interdependence, we find ourselves amid the COVID pandemic. We live in a time when 85 percent of the global workforce is not engaged in their ideal occupation, and there is a palpable and urgent hunger for meaning and purpose across our life spans. People are yearning to tune in to their unique internal reason for being, desperately seeking ways to matter. In this collection of stories, from Australia to Zambia, women of all ages, socioeconomic backgrounds, and areas of influence share their paths to discovering their purpose, finding ways to express their gifts, and in doing so, making contributions that better the world. In sharing these stories, we invite you on the journey to discover, honour and express your unique purpose. The world sorely needs your gifts, and you will be rewarded with unparalleled fulfilment. The time is now.
