Author Sarah Susanka's "Not So Big Life," a not-so-architectural work of art!
"A thought leader, inspirational public speaker, and an acclaimed architect, Sarah is the bestselling author of several books including The Not So Big House ... She has appeared on numerous television and radio programs, including Oprah, Charlie Rose, and Diane Rehm, and has received many accolades for her work. Fast Company named Sarah to their debut list of "Fast 50" innovators whose achievements have helped to change society. Newsweek Magazine selected her as a "top newsmaker" for 2000, and US News and World Report dubbed her an "innovator in American culture" in 1998 ... A master in the use of metaphor to help explain new dimensions of understanding, Sarah unveils a process for changing the way we live by fully inhabiting each moment of our lives, and by showing up completely in whatever it is we are doing...
What makes Sarah an unusually effective teacher in the art of living more consciously is that she has learned what she knows by living an ordinary life, filled with all the normal challenges of family and career. Brought up in England by parents with little interest in spirituality, she was able to develop and integrate a non-denominational spiritual practice into her everyday life from an early age, using every circumstance, friendship, and passion as the nutrients for inner growth.
Though Sarah is very much engaged in the world as architect, author, speaker, etc., she doesn't consider those roles to be her identity. Through all her various expressions, architectural and literary, she is able to convey a different way of being in the world - fully engaged in it, but not defined by it."
