Book Review
Unless you are independently wealthy or have won the lottery, chances are you work every day. Most people see work as something they have to do to eat, pay the rent and be able to enjoy life’s grander moments. Other people are on the career fast track and they see their jobs as their personal identity. What if you saw your workplace as a journey, part of your spiritual path? Using a mythological context, Marion shows us how to awaken our inner hero and how to use the hero’s journey as way to navigate our working lives so that we can be of higher service to others and the planet while also satisfying our own needs to grow and evolve. This is a treasure of a book and can help you find a deeper meaning in your work. There is a lot of meat here and plenty of ways to incorporate the information so you can find your working life to be complete and a genuine part of your journey.

Testimonials
Inspiring and Enlightening!
Dr. Moss Hubbard crystallizes those issues that we are vaguely aware of which filter and block our ability to cope with the work environment. Her lessons are practical and her suggestions are thought provoking. Great for a work group to review and study together.

A must read book!
This book made a major impact on my idea of what work should be like. I was under the assumption that work was just a way to collect a paycheck and my real life started at 5 pm. I recommend this book to anyone who questions their role at work. Contained within the book are milestones to check where you are on your Heroic Journey.

A New Tool for Workplace Challenges
Marion Moss Hubbard has created a valuable framework in which change, confusion, frustration and success can all be viewed as a cycle of growth within an organization. A very helpful tool for both individuals and organizations.
