Ceci Miller interviews Joy Helmer, President of the Board of The Compassionate Listening Project, about a beautiful experience of sacred unity she had in Wurzburg, Germany, when she was five years old. Joy shares about one evening at dusk when the snow began to fall, and how the quality of that moment, and her response to it, shaped her sense of the interconnectedness of all. This experience eventually led to her accepting a leadership role in the global mission of The Compassionate Listening Project.
