I’m honored to sit down with my dear friend, Sherle Stevens, an accomplished artist, adventurer, and seeker of healing. Now at 86, Sherle has lived an extraordinary life, traveling the world, pursuing creative passions, and ultimately confronting the wounds of her past. In her deeply personal memoir, Big As The Whole Wide World: Finding Peace Beyond My Karmic Family Ties, she shares her journey through childhood trauma, estranged family relationships, toxic romantic patterns, and the spiritual insights that helped her break free.
Sherle’s story is one of resilience and transformation. She navigated single motherhood in New York City, found deep companionship in unexpected places, and embarked on the Camino pilgrimage later in life. She also discovered the power of numerology, a practice she has studied for over 50 years, to help uncover her soul’s purpose. In this conversation, Sherle offers wisdom for those struggling with unresolved family dynamics, and she introduces the idea of the “third way”—a path of healing that doesn’t require reconnection but allows for inner peace.
If you’ve ever faced family estrangement, questioned your life’s purpose, or felt drawn to a personal pilgrimage—this episode is for you.
Takeaways:
- It’s never too late to start something new.
- Estrangement isn’t the only option. There is a “third way” to make peace without necessarily reconnecting.
- Numerology offers profound insights—understanding your numbers can align you with your life’s purpose.
- Personal pilgrimages—whether literal or metaphorical—can completely transform your life.
- Adventure doesn’t always mean going far away; sometimes the biggest adventures bring you closer to yourself.
