We all yearn for a life that is whole—where “soul and role” are aligned and our innermost wisdom guides us in our actions. Perhaps no one has explored this topic more deeply than bestselling author and distinguished educator Parker J. Palmer.

Now you can experience his inspiring and transformative teachings on An Undivided Life. Infused with compassionate intelligence, this landmark program will encourage and deepen your reflections about what it means to live “a life divided no more.”

In this five-hour journey, Palmer shares some of his most personal lessons and profound insights gained from a lifetime of faithful inquiry. Join him for an open and honest conversation that explores:
• The power of paradox to help us find meaning in the darkness and light of life’s experiences
• How to live creatively in “the tragic gap”—the space between hard realities and what we know to be possible“
• Hearing each other into speech”—a soul-honoring way of deepening our relationships
• How understanding our inner dynamics can help us make choices that are life-giving for ourselves and others

"My experience—from the depths of depression to the heights of joy—has taught me that the path toward wholeness takes patience and passion,” teaches Parker Palmer. With An Undivided Life, you will receive his timeless wisdom and guidance to help you discern, trust, and follow your authentic self at home, in your work, and in the world.

Course objectives:
• Describe what it means to live an undivided life
• Define "paradox"

This profound interview is inspiring—not in a simplistic, cheerleading way, but in a soulful and insightful way. The combination of the wise sage Parker Palmer with one of my favorite people, Sounds True Founder Tami Simon, makes for a compelling listening experience. I finished this recording in two days—it was that good. Parker and Tami, please record more interviews together!

A remarkable, enriching work

I've not ever felt so grateful to be a fly on the wall in a room overhearing a conversation. In this room, the deepest and most generous wisdom that may have ever been spoken flows forth masterfully and effortlessly as if from a divine source through the being and gorgeous voice of Parker Palmer. In this talk he explains, or uncovers, the meaning of paradox, soul, Religion, community, courage, intention, social injustice...and many other things that are central to the human condition.

Simply put, if you listen, you will have absorbed a multitude of concepts and a deeper knowing with which you can and just might use to dramatically transform the way you see yourself, your soul, and the universe.

I am now seeking a way to keep the conversation going which Parker has boosted and intends to be the stuff of his legacy.

Beautiful, important, elegant, matterful.
