We want to advocate for causes we care about--but which ones? We want to work for change--but will the emotional toll lead to burn out?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLeadership coach, lawyer, photographer, and activist Karen Walrond knows that when you care deeply about the world, light can seem hard to find. But when your activism grows out of your joy--and vice versa--you begin to see light everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Lightmaker's Manifesto\u003c\/i\u003e, Walrond helps us name the skills, values, and actions that bring us joy; identify the causes that spark our empathy and concern; and then put it all together to change the world. Creative and practical exercises, including journaling, daily intention-setting, and mindful self-compassion, are complemented by lively conversations with activists and thought leaders such as Valarie Kaur, Brené Brown, Tarana Burke, and Zuri Adele. With stories from around the world and wisdom from those leading movements for change, Walrond beckons readers toward lives of integrity, advocacy, conviction, and joy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBy unearthing our passions and gifts, we learn how to joyfully advocate for justice, peace, and liberation. We learn how to become makers of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWalrond, Karen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKaren Walrond \u003c\/strong\u003eis the author of \u003cem\u003eThe Lightmaker's Manifesto, Radiant Rebellion\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eIn Defense of Dabbling\u003c\/em\u003e.
