Description
Sarah Wilson is the founder of the I Quit Sugar empire. After enjoying huge success, she closed up her business in 2018, gave her money to charity, and embarked on a three-year hike across the world to reconnect herself with nature and engage in discerning thought. Speaking with experts along the way, Sarah questioned the demise of meaningful connection. Connection with ourselves, with other people, and with our lives, and why we retreat into disconnect and turn to distractions that ultimately derail our lives away from what really matters. Drawing on science, literature, philosophy, and her own personal journey, Sarah’s book This One Wild and Precious Life aims to highlight why we’ve arrived into 2021 feeling exhausted and disconnected and overwhelmed by global crises. She swings the anxieties around to find positive solutions that can be enjoyed by regular people at a granular scale. Sarah’s dialogue is both captivating and important, and leaves the listener in self-reflective thought. How do we maintain calm and peace when the world is falling apart? Should we maintain calm and peace when the world is falling apart?
