Read the Encouragements Left Behind by Fellow Travelers

Terry says,

Just read quietly and thoughtfully “Soul of a Leader”. This is not a song, not a chorus but a symphony to authenticity. I can only sit quietly with a fresh mind, heart, and soul, Read More with an awareness and appreciation for what you dare to do for all those you have and will set free to join you in a journey as we walk each other home.

Nicholas says,

I have loved many books, but I have very few favorites — those that I return to again and again because each reading reveals deeper layers of truth. Books like the Tao te Ching, Read More The Alchemist, or Mary Oliver’s poetry. Soul of a Leader instantly joined those treasures on my shelf.
Reading a single passage feels like meditating by a pond at sunrise. It takes me out of the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day and invites me into an experience of peace, clarity, and deep inner knowing. It’s as if there is a wise mentor next to me inviting me to take a much wider view. Suddenly, the problems I thought I had melt away and the truth reveals itself. The path forward is clear.
For lovers of wisdom, for those who meditate or enjoy moments of stillness, for those who seek to be better leaders, community members, parents, etc., this book is an ally on the path. It contains many treasures, and I feel I am barely beginning to scratch the surface of all that is within it.

Victoria says,

Thomas White has created a treasure trove of wisdom that I pray can make its way into the hands of those who are ready to embark on their journey of awakening.
As a childbirth Read More educator, I found many quotes that I intend to share with my class, as I believe much of what it shared in this book can support women in feeling powerful and connected to love as they prepare to bring their baby into the world.

George says,

We are called to lead; our soul responds. In these moments, we are graced with artistry and power. But inevitably, these fade: we lose confidence, strength, and clarity. Not Read More because something is wrong with us, but because we are human, and this is the natural rhythm of life.
In Soul of a Leader, Thomas White gently reminds us of what called and what responded. His words are simple, poetic, surprising, and true. They attune to our heartfelt desire to serve and resonate with the intuitive intelligence at our core. This is a love song to leadership that emerges from the depths of who we truly are. Each chapter engages and celebrates an aspect of beingness and humanity, guiding readers back to the stillness of their essential selves. The practices concluding each chapter are sacred rituals of self-remembrance.
Reading these pages feels like sitting beside a wise mentor whose quiet presence creates space for reawakening. “Ahhh, yes,” we whisper. “Now I feel myself again.” From this recovered foundation, we can once again turn toward life’s concerns with skill, understanding, and equanimity. This book offers a generous gift imbued with both humility and dignity—guiding our return to the magic and mystery of authentic leadership.

Lars says,

After decades of interpreting the layers of my life (and also continually adding more and more and more,) my attention has shifted to un-layering, to feeling my way down, to Read More experience rather than information. Soul Of A Leader offers us simple glimpses and peaceful invitations to honor our intrinsic identity as foundation for life and leadership.
