When examining her own life, author Cara Wilson-Granat had an amazing guide and mentor. It wasn’t the latest motivational speaker or life coach. It was the world outside her front door! In the great outdoors, Wilson-Granat learned powerful lessons about the human spirit and her own journey. She is now sharing these insights with you.

In Strength from Nature, Wilson-Granat explains how

a pond can show you the way small actions can change the entire world, a pearl can teach you about learning from difficult challenges and overcoming obstacles, an otter can demonstrate the best way to take difficulties as they come, a spider’s web can inspire you to examine your own special talents, a river can explain the necessity of change, an aspen tree can emphasize interconnectivity, a little butterfly can encourage you to savor life’s sweetest moments, and a weed can force you to see life from a completely different perspective.

Wilson-Granat hopes that when you put this book down, you will be inspired to seek out a mentor of your own. From the tiniest insect to the most complex ecosystem, each piece of the natural world has something precious to teach you.
