Being True: What Matters Most in Work, Life and Love

Tami Simon, read by the author. Sounds True, 4 CDs, 4.5 hrs., $29.95 ISBN 978-1-62203-613-4

Simon, who founded the Sounds True multimedia publishing house in 1985, when she was in her early 20s, shares stories from 30 years of work and life in this audio-exclusive book that is equal parts how-to and memoir. Using the trademark low, soothing voice she has employed to interview countless spiritual teachers on her programs and podcast episodes through the years, Simon shows herself to be a consummate professional when it comes to the art of narration. Her pacing is excellent and her delivery natural, as if the listener were in the room for one of her popular teaching sessions. Each CD tackles a different topic: finding your path, being true to yourself in the workplace, risking vulnerability in intimate relationships, and listening to wise teachers. In the final session, her delivery slows down considerably as she empowers the listener to engage meditatively with the material, pausing often to allow a message to sink in. With humor and an open heart, Simon invites listeners to partake of the wisdom she has cultivated over the last three decades. [em](May) [/em]
