Sandra A. Miller: Unearthing Life's Hidden Gems
If we become attuned to our world in a truly open and thoughtful and sensitive way, treasures appear all around us, big and small.
Imagine being invited on a treasure hunt in the heart of New York City. Eight years ago, Sandra A. Miller received such an invitation, and it turned her world upside down. In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', host Valeria Teles chats with Sandra about her unexpected journey that started with a search for gold coins and ended in profound self-discovery.
At the time, Sandra was juggling the responsibilities of caring for her ailing mother and guiding her almost-teenage children, all while grappling with the complexities of middle age and a longing for something more in life. Despite having a loving husband, a stable career, and a close-knit group of friends, she felt an unnameable ache for something beyond her reach. This treasure hunt became a metaphor for Sandra's lifelong quest to find deeper meaning and fulfillment.
From childhood days spent finding hidden trinkets to adult challenges, Sandra's story is a testament to the human spirit's resilience and curiosity. She shares her reflections on the importance of slowing down, connecting with our inner selves, and recognizing the treasures we often overlook in our daily lives. This conversation is not just about a physical hunt but an emotional and spiritual journey that encourages listeners to embrace their own quests for truth and purpose.
