Sympathetic Joy with Sarah McLean

In this episode we speak to Sarah McLean, founder of Woman Arising and a renowned spiritual teacher, bestselling author, and founder of the non-profit organization Feast for the Soul.  We explore her journey through growth and enlightenment and the need to highlight and support women's achievements.  Sarah shares experiences of her time in the military, working with influential people like Deepak Chopra and Byron Katie, living at a Zen Monastery, developing her own meditation center, writing books about her experience, and her efforts to address the unequal celebration of men and women that led to her determination to celebrate the unique journeys of women and uplift their contributions.

McLean delves into her personal journey of discovering the concept of mudita, or sympathetic joy, and its transformative impact on her outlook on life. She emphasizes the need for women to genuinely celebrate each other's successes and break free from societal constraints that impose limits on joy and achievement. Sarah's dedication to internal fulfillment and self-awareness has made her a great advocate for women's empowerment.
