If someone came and lived with you as your disciple for a week, what would the effect on them be from adopting your ways of life? That's just one of the intriguing questions John asks the Wild at Heart team during this Q&A session from Survival School. The focus is on our dailies, because the choices we make each day determine the trajectory of our lives—from spiritual practices like soul care and sacred nourishment to simple barometers like how much time we spend in the news, how late we go to bed, and how hard we push ourselves on the weekend. Your life is built on the dailies. The question is, what kind of life are you building?

For more details on how to lead or attend a local Survival School retreat, visit WIldatHeart.org/events.
