Joy as the Compass

"I hold Edveeje as a true life guide for following your bliss. She will leave you more deeply in love with the gift of being alive." — Clare Dubois, founder, TreeSisters "A deeply touching book with soul-deep revelations." — Pia Bjorstrand, attorney and Board Chair, End Ecocide Sweden "This book is a roadmap for the wild woman in all of us." — Jodine Turner, Ph.D., founder of Visionary Fiction Alliance "A vital blueprint for navigating life's thresholds with purpose, joy, and renewal." — Sarah Drew, author, Gaia Codex In this honest, hard-hitting book, Edveeje Fairchild shares her story of walking away from her successful career as a non-profit executive to become the CEO of her own life. As she recovers from her addiction to activism, Edveeje learns several important truths: • Leadership and activism do not require sacrifice, suffering, and hard work. • We must first become the change before we can lead the change. • Nature and the world don't need saving. We do. • Joy is the only meaningful life GPS. Joy as the Compass explores seven "activist addictions" that lead to inner ecological burnout while offering seven "wild remedies" that illuminate the path of soul restoration. Join Edveeje on her personal soul safari as she learned how to root her life, leadership, and activism in joy rather than suffering and sacrifice. Dare to make Joy your True North.
