Natasha Ritz is a self-proclaimed explorer of the internal world. This is the first book she's written. It was born from personal experiences in conjunction with academic learnings from her Behaviour Sciences work. Natasha is a business leader, having led and run multiple businesses in the social enterprise space, helping founders and leaders to operationalise their vision. She brings unique storytelling and knowledge from varied experiences in her life to support the reader on their souling journey as they dive into their innermost self. Emily Stephenson is an expert editor and copywriter navigating dualities: individuality and accessibility; comprehensibility and nuance; incorrectness and snobbery. She launched Intersect Editing using the power of language to frame intersectionality broadly across race, sex, ability, class and beyond. Vicki Inglis is a Sydney-based Graphic Designer and Illustrator with a demonstrated history of working in the design industry. Skilled in Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator and Powerpoint, Inglis brings elements of the handcrafted into her designs. Inspired by everyday life and the natural world, her artworks are filled with the repetition in her signature realism style. Vicki brought to life illustrations for Souling to enhance the reader experience and journey.
This is a fabulous & beautiful book. Tash is raw, honest and brave. Souling is part memoir, part compendium of spiritual/souling practices, part guide and part art project that is centred around asking the biggest questions - who am I, why am I, how am I, where am I, what am I? The framing and prose felt like an invitation to become an active participant in how I read the book too - I related, I was challenged, I pushed back, I accepted. It opened a conversation with myself about my own relationship to myself and the ways I do (and don't) allow for stillness to get into contact with myself. An absolute must read!
