Description
Best-selling author Isabel Allende has led an extraordinary life marked by moments of tragic loss. A coup in her home country of Chile forces her family into exile, and an unexpected illness takes away one of the most important people in her life. And yet, at 80 years old, Isabel feels a lightness that contradicts the attachment she felt in her youth. In this episode, Isabel teaches us how the most unbearable losses can sometimes offer the most profound gift: the freedom to live a joyful, fearless life.Isabel's website: https://isabelallende.com/Isabel's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allendeisabel/Isabel's Twitter: https://twitter.com/isabelallendeIsabel's episode on our sister podcast, Spark & Fire: https://sparkandfire.com/isabelallende/Each episode of Meditative Story combines the emotional pull of first-person storytelling with immersive music and gentle mindfulness prompts.
