Soil & Spirit: Seeds of Purpose, Nature’s Insight & the Deep Work of Transformational Change

by Ian C. Williams

Monumental challenges threaten the sixth mass extinction on planet Earth. From increasing rates of infertility and chronic disease to soil degradation and climate collapse, reviving civilization requires changemakers to step forward and lead with their own unique genius. In Soil & Spirit , Ian C. Williams presents a simple self-actualization. Solutions at scale begin with individuals organizing themselves. Ian guides the reader through that process via four primary internal, social, external, and spiritual. These landscapes chart the path from personal to planetary transformation. Soil & Spirit is not only a message but a methodology for designing resilient landscapes, both inside and out. Creating a regenerative future means committing to self-cultivation. Once you learn to navigate the four primary landscapes and awaken to your life’s core purpose, you become a catalyst for true cultural transformation.

About the author

I am an educator, speaker, and business advisor. Through mindfulness, systems thinking, and regenerative design, I empower the growth and development of individuals and communities. As a business advisor, I foster healthy organizational cultures through process optimization, wellness integration, and environmental restoration. I dedicate myself to humanitarian and environmental endeavors to generate systemic change for the common good. These core values are rooted in the waters and boreal forests of Minnesota, but a single, mystical experience prompted my awakening to spirit. This led me to a devoted path of service seeking justice for people and the planet.

A thought provoking, relevant book for our time right now. Ian Williams passionately addresses the very immediate and serious concerns of our world existence while nurturing us with hope, kindness and inspiration. Ian lays out a vision and a plan of what we can do as individuals that lead to bettering ourselves and our world, all conveyed through lovely writing and how we as humans are inextricably linked with the natural world. I would like to see Soil & Spirit, Seeds of Purpose, Nature’s Insight & the Deep Work of Transformational Change as required reading in higher education. Question is under which studies, Science, Ethics, Culture, English, Future of Humankind?
Soil & Spirit is one of Forbes Top 3 Books To Inspire Leaders To Create Change.
