What’s Happening Now

The Way of Integrity

by Dr. Martha Beck

Bestselling author, life coach, and sociologist Martha Beck explains why “integrity”–being in harmony with ourselves–is the key to a meaningful and joyful life

As Martha Beck says in her book, “Integrity is the cure for psychological suffering. Period.”

In The Way of Integrity, Martha presents a four-stage process that anyone can use to find integrity, and with it, a sense of purpose, emotional healing, and a life free of mental suffering. Much of what plagues us—people pleasing, worry and anxiety, negative habits—all point to what happens when we are out of touch with what truly makes us feel whole.

Martha Beck, PhD, is a Harvard-trained sociologist, world-renowned coach and New York Times bestselling author. She has published nine non-fiction books, one novel, and more than 200 magazine articles.

I’m shocked every time someone introduces me as a “best-selling author,” because I’ve never written to sell myself, only to save myself. Writing is my favorite tool for addressing and dissolving my own suffering. At some point I discovered that it could help others, too. Since then I’ve been humbled by the responses I receive to my books and articles. My most recent stint as a monthly contributor for O, The Oprah Magazine, has lasted 17 years.

5 Paths to Your Purpose

You have a unique life purpose, one that’s meant to serve the world and fill your days with meaning.

You were born to recognize that purpose . . . but chances are you don’t. Early in life, most of us learn to ignore our purpose and do random things that other people value.

It’s time to unlearn that pattern.

I’m offering an exciting, free masterclass that will help you notice and name the paths to purpose that are always at your feet, though you may not be able to see them.

We can thrive . . .

There’s no rulebook for dealing with what’s happening right now. No map, no guidelines. If you feel like everything’s falling apart, you’re not wrong.

But that isn’t the whole story.

When it feels like we’re breaking down, we can break open instead. We can master skills that will make us stronger, calmer, more capable than we’ve ever been. We can thrive.

Before creating this course, Dr. Martha Beck spent decades learning how to navigate skillfully in times of radical change. She’s helped millions of readers and hundreds of clients find their way through times when everything fell apart for them.

Practical Wayfinding: How to Thrive When Everything’s Falling Apart is a six-week online course. Martha has created powerful all-new content especially for you, in this unique moment in history.

This course will teach you to “surf the tsunami” of change so that you can thrive—body, heart, and soul—in this time of crisis. Don’t think destruction. Think transformation.
