Abstract
In Becoming Human, Jean Vanier explores what it means to embrace our shared humanity in a world that often separates, judges, and isolates. A profound guide to transformation, this book invites readers to journey inward, cultivating compassion, vulnerability, and connection. Rooted in Vanier's work with individuals with disabilities, it challenges us to discover strength in weakness and depth in community, making it a powerful companion to the personal growth journey of life coaching clients.
Description
Jean Vanier, philosopher, theologian, and founder of the L'Arche community, delivers a deeply reflective and accessible book in Becoming Human. With humility and clarity, Vanier invites us to examine what makes us truly human—not our success or independence, but our capacity for love, openness, and transformation through relationship.
Drawing from decades of experience living alongside marginalized individuals, Vanier unpacks the walls we build out of fear, pride, and pain, and gently guides us to the freedom found in embracing our vulnerabilities. This book complements a life coaching journey by helping clients confront limiting beliefs, discover deeper purpose, and align their lives with authenticity and compassion.
Whether you're navigating change, healing from past wounds, or seeking spiritual insight, Becoming Human offers a moving roadmap for becoming whole.
