Humility is the ability to understand my place in the universe, in our relationship, in my work, and to neither distort it for its greatness or overlook its import.

In their conversation, they dive into her book 'Radical Spirit: 12 Ways to Live a Free and Authentic Life'. Sister Joan shares her wisdom on the true essence of humility, which she describes not as humiliation but as understanding our place in the universe and our relationships. She highlights how humility is the cornerstone of spirituality and can lead to a more fulfilling life.
