In my years in ministry, teaching, and coaching, I've witnessed the reality of which so many live their lives. Fragmented. We're conditioned, in many ways, to wear multiple hats as if we take on various personas over time while often sacrificing our truest self, our authentic self. More often than not it's a result of living our lives from the outside in rather than the inside out. The wisdom extracted from my own life, along with years teaching and coaching, has given me insight of how to turn that corner. To this day, the classroom is a laboratory to help students explore their own lives, in a deeper way, through the study of philosophy. In a time of so much fragmentation, in our lives, politics, and society in general, there needs to be a movement towards transformation and integration, to become whole.
