Athena Books is thrilled to welcome bestselling author Laura Munson to celebrate the launch of her memoir, The Wild Why: Stories and Teachings to Uncover Your Wonder. Laura will be joined in conversation by fellow author and journalist Lee Woodruff. Join us for an evening of creativity and self-exploration among friends! Your ticket includes a copy of The Wild Why, wine and light dessert. About The Wild Why: “In The Wild Why, Laura Munson invites readers to answer ‘the most powerful and wonder-full question’ for themselves: ‘What can I create?’ This book is an open-hearted invitation to explore the connections between wonder and empathy, intuition and serendipity, self-compassion and creativity—and to live a bigger, braver life.” —Maggie Smith, New York Times bestselling author of You Could Make This Place Beautiful In The Wild Why, bestselling author and acclaimed writing workshop leader Laura Munson offers reassurance and guidance to everyone who has ever said, “I don’t have a voice” or “I’m not creative.” Going back to her beginning as a girl who was hurt and shamed by significant adults into believing that she asked too many questions, talked too much, laughed too loud, cried too easily, was too sensitive, and felt bad about all of it, Laura shares her journey to reclaiming her wonder—and the freedom and power that come with it. What’s more, she invites readers to join her and embark on their own wonder-filled journeys of discovery. A deeply personal memoir and richly insightful, empowering guide, The Wild Why interweaves stories, awakenings, and lessons with teachings, exercises of exploration, and calls to action for the reader to find their own wild why. At the heart of it all is wonder. What is wonder anyway? As Laura Munson explains, wonder is what even cynics feel and think when they see a rainbow: curiosity mixed with awe. And because the experience is universal, wonder drives empathy.
