Out Of The Office And Into The Wild: How Fasting In The Desert Helped Me Find Purpose

In 2012, I embarked on a Vision Quest in the desert seeking clarity amidst life changes and self-doubt following a divorce and return from living abroad. This spiritual journey involved fasting alone in the wilderness for three days and four nights, providing a profound opportunity for self-reflection and connection with nature. The Vision Quest, a rite of passage ceremony, offered a transformative experience, guiding me to confront old narratives and emerge with a renewed sense of purpose and connection to my community and inner self.
