Good morning, 2026 Fellows,

📖 As we approach next Friday’s Circles of Trust Workshop, please find some helpful reminders for exploring a Hidden Wholeness:

• Suggested starting point: Chapter 5, The role of the leader and the space of the circle of trust.
• Use the book as a mirror for exploring your own life. 
• Engage in soul work alongside others. 
• The group’s path through the book is not linear.
• You can revisit sections to deepen insight.
• Please remember you can view chapter highlights via YouTube.  

The objective for the upcoming workshop is “soul work”: studying yourself and the book. It’s a community of solitudes – we come together to learn from one another and attend to the inner teacher. 

Reading the whole book will give you a deeper experience and help you fully participate in the upcoming workshop. If your time is limited, please pay particular attention to Chapters 5 and 6.

Additionally, included below is Chapter One’s YouTube video. Parker Palmer has put together mini talks on each chapter if you’re interested in watching them. Once you launch this first chapter, the subsequent chapters will appear in the sidebar menu.

Chapter 1: The Primacy of Soul (Parker J. Palmer)
