Radical Embrace - Integrating Leadership, Embodiment, Compassion, and Sustainability

"Radical Embrace weaves together with great simplicity and ease the core four elements of our being. In so doing Francis Briers touches our core - not by preaching, but by opening up a dialogue. This is indeed a conversation of a deeper kind - some might say a courageous conversation - one that can transform our being-ness which in turn translates into our doings. At the heart of this book lies one profound start with care and everything else moves from there." - Polly Higgins International Ecocide law advocate, Barrister, Author of Eradicating Ecocide, Earth is our Business and I Dare You to Be Great. CEO, Earth Community Trust "Francis grips the soul in this fiercely eloquent yet gentle provocation. I defy anyone to finish this book and not feel a spark of inspiration to step into life and the world more fully. A potent mix of honest confession, clear vision, effective method and, perhaps above all, evocative questions." Tom Kenward Director of MSc in People and Organisational Development at Roffey Park Leadership Institute, former Head of Activism and OD Director at Friends of The Earth. Radical Embrace is about embracing ourselves, deep at our core, embracing our bodies as integrated parts of our being, embracing each other regardless of affiliation, and embracing the planet as one of a being in need of love and care no less than the rest of us.
