Worldwide tragedies including natural disasters and the great harm inflicted on others by an individual fill our media headlines. How can we hold all that is taking place and continue to live life? How can we be part of the solution and make a difference? Can a spiritual practice make a difference? Sharon Wikoff and Jyude Allbright in this episode, look at life, the outer experience as well as the journey inward, to the truth of who we are.

Our guest is spiritual teacher, Kathleen McTeigue. She will discuss the journey inward. Whether you're new to the spiritual journey or you've been on the path for years, you’re bound to appreciate Kathleen's enlightened perspective. What motivates people to go within? What can we learn about ourselves on the inner journey of discovery? Do we need a teacher? These are some of the questions we will explore on the program. Kathleen will also talk about her spiritual awakening and what she has learned in the process that can be of value to everyone.

How many of you could explain your values easily to someone? We live our lives with certain values but often are not even aware when we are not respecting those values. We will be looking at values and their role in our lives. Our guest, Sheila Ramsey in her book, Personal Leadership: Making A World of Difference, questions how amazing it is that in the 21st century we are still going to war. Her two principles and six practices of Personal Leadership enable us to stay connected to our own inspiration and creativity when we are faced with both the new and unfamiliar as well as the usual and routine. On this program, Sheila will lead listeners, using real-time stories and examples to create their own personal vision statement using 5 values. We will learn how Vision serves as a compass for choosing our internal state of being as we navigate challenges and opportunities. Our youth this week is Colin Wanless from Florida, works with Joshua'a Heart to make a difference in his community.
