A deeply engaging story that radiates with the bravery of a woman who decided to pave her own path.
A career-driven powerhouse of academic accomplishment and professional conquest, Lani Gonzales was certain she'd ticked off every box on life's to-do list. But as it turned out, she'd forgotten to do the most important thing - live.
In a captivating portrait of the epiphany that changed her life, Lani Gonzales takes us on a transformative journey with Metanoia. Hollow and heartbroken with an unfulfilling career, a bold step into the unknown soon finds Lani abandoning the “perfect” life plan she'd embraced as she embarks on a global journey of transformation and self-discovery. Her adventures beam across continents and cultures. From death-defying encounters to meeting with shamans and gurus, life's uncertainties unravel before Lani’s eyes, revealing the lesson that no schooling or textbook could what it means to truly live.
A rebellion against happily ever after and an invitation to embrace the raw and the real, Metanoia incites the brave and empowers the bold. Join Lani Gonzales on an inspiring odyssey and discover the magic that awaits when we let go and journey into the unknown
I love a book with lived experience. Even better is when that lived experience takes me travelling vicariously through places on my bucket list. Add in an intense and fantastical spiritual awakening and I'm on cloud 9. The only thing that would have make this book better was more of it.
