Answering the Call of Our Times
The Life That Love Builds: How to Come Home to Yourself by Letting Go of Normal weaves together vulnerable storytelling, wisdom teachings, and social commentary as a guide for those who long to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life rooted in integrity, healthy relationships, and deeper connection to ourselves and the world around us.
We are in the midst of a profound paradigm shift. The world order we've grown accustomed to is rooted in fear, scarcity, and control, but what we've socially accepted as "normal" is not serving us on an individual or collective level. We strive to achieve an ideal that will make us look and feel like we're a success, yet many of us are burdened by tremendous stress and physical, mental, and emotional pain. Despite all our efforts, we're not happy. It's in recognition of this suffering that Jeni has created a new story.
Through her own experiences, Jeni invites us to cultivate curiosity and introspection as we take the next courageous steps in our own personal transformation. With raw honesty, she lays bare the many painful challenges we face throughout our lives: loneliness, anxiety, grief, addiction, depression, childhood trauma, betrayal, unworthiness ... and offers a spiritual template as well as practices and techniques that can support our journey toward wholeness, contentment, and our highest creative potential.
Reclaiming our authenticity and living from that space offer not only profound healing but also profound joy. By recognizing our intrinsic worth and building trust in our intuitive wisdom, we can begin to live in alignment with our core values and learn to delight in our natural personality, with all of its quirks and foibles and paradoxes. We are all both/and-messy, complex, perfectly imperfect human beings.
Authenticity takes courage. Luckily, we are not alone. An unfathomable love-the antidote to fear-has been patiently waiting for our longing to return home. When we finally let go of "normal," love builds us a life more exquisite than our wildest dreams.
