Transformation and perception expert Penney Peirce offers a timely, inspiring, and pioneering book about the path to everyday enlightenment. Focusing on the courage to be vulnerable, authentic, and exposed, Transparency offers a way to rapidly become your absolute best self.
There is great power in being seen for all of who you are—and for being able to see through the superficial, often-messy top layer of reality to find core truth, beautiful souls, and our expanded capacity as human beings. The fourth book in Penney Peirce’s award-winning Transformation series, with a poignant foreword by Jenny Blake, Transparency dives into some of the last phases of personal and societal transformation.
Thought-provoking, reassuring, and motivating, Peirce shows readers how to dissolve old habits, fears, and fixed beliefs—our emotional and mental “clutter”—that interfere with the soul’s clarity. It’s honesty, simplicity, compassion, and true humility that produce genius, not ego and control.
We’re used to living in physical bodies in an opaque world, and rarely see through to what’s real. By transforming the dense reality into a transparent one, where secrets, lies, and hiding are no longer functional, readers learn to relax and discover their best self. When you’re transparent, you can see through situations that blind and confuse others. It’s easy then to reach ideal solutions, important insights, and astounding creativity. Peirce’s vision for how life will change in a transparent reality gives all of us something to aim for.

This book definitely had some great information, but I felt like I couldn’t digest any of it because there was so much to it. Took me two months to get through and I’m glad to be done with it.
This is my 3rd book by Penney & I feel so grateful to know the woman who wrote the forward to this wonderful book. This is a book for the true seekers of knowledge, I can see how the various levels of self-awareness & growth can make this a book that some want to put back on the shelf. I find many of Penney's books will speak to me when I'm ready for the lesson, I also find many people have a similar course of events that bring them to their "best teacher".
I'll come back to edit this later, I'm still reading this along with a few other books. They all have a similar message in learning to trust your intuition through knowledge of the Self. Penney has a gift for intertwining various levels of wisdom from many sources, of which she usually quotes to give reference as well as meaning. This is good stuff for those who are ready for it.
Though there are some good points from this book, it seems to me that Penney Peirce loves to ramble more than getting to the gist of the matter. It becomes solipsistic, complex, unfair and very repetitive to the reader who only wants to open his mind to the ideas of spirituality.
It feels like Penney Peirce deliberately rambled too much, enjoyed going out of the main point just so she could publish a thick hard bound book. Her credibility did not do her marketing any justice.
I did not enjoy reading this book. If you want to read more about spirituality, stick to Eckhart Tolle’s literature.
This is the first book I've read by Peirce. I've been reading a decent amount of book similar to this one (self-help) lately, and this book is thick and full of how to become transparent in your life. Peirce writes that if one can become transpatent, you will be able to see clearly and be able to learn to be a more open and honest person. Not really my type of book, but interesting.
This is not a book to rush through, but to savor. It will have you reflecting and questioning as it speaks to how we are moving from the age of information to the age of transparency. If you don't believe in forces greater than yourself, this is not for you - but if you do it will enlighten and leave you hopeful for the future.
Very good read, and a thought-provoking book. It was the first book I read by this author. At times, I felt it heavy - very jammed packed with information and realised quickly that it's a book to be read when you have time to devote to it and pause to think about what you just read.
This book came at the right time for me. I have been struggling with all the division in the world feeling helpless to know what I can do. This book sets out the inner work that we can do to help us live more peacefully and intuitively.
