Instead of being overwhelmed by "more, bigger, faster," what if it’s possible to live a different kind of life? What if instead of being shackled to the hamster wheel we take tiny, purposeful, lasting steps toward depth and learning, toward sufficiency and wholeness?
My guest this week is parent and teacher and professional listener Ellie Roscher. Ellie is also a sought-after workshop and retreat facilitator, a yoga instructor, and prolific author of several books, including Remarkable Rose, The Embodied Path, 12 Tiny Things, Play Like a Girl and How Coffee Saved My Life. Her writing appears in The Baltimore Review, Eunoia Review, Mothering Spirit, Inscape Magazine, and elsewhere. She holds an MFA in Writing from Sarah Lawrence College and an MA in Theology from Luther Seminary. Find out more at ellieroscher.com.
