The Inspiration of the Four Golden Insights
I truly enjoyed getting to speak with Jonni, and felt myself sinking into the conversation in a deep way. One of the most inspirational parts of the discussion for me was when we walked through the Four Golden Insights, which are the pillars for the work Jonni does.
- Life is Sacred
- Love is our Nature – we serve, nature, and find connection
- Wisdom is our Power – Jonni talks about finding the intelligence of love, and reconciling the appearance of resistance and opposites.
- We also talked about “embodied leadership power, which equals the ability to influence the environment around us.”
- Wisdom can enliven and awaken the truth of who we are
4. Fulfillment is our Purpose – we find our purpose by fully understanding who we are
