About this listen
A memoir taking you to far-flung places across the globe and the inner realms of the soul.
In a world run amuck with seemingly irreparable differences and conflicts, Gail Straub’s memoir offers an antidote. As a seeker on pilgrimage across the Sahara with indigenous Tuaregs, trekking off the beaten trail high in the Himalayas, the intrepid Straub seeks out all that is different so that she can become whole. As an activist, Gail becomes immersed in Gorbachev-era Russia and Deng Xiaoping-era China. She empowers sex-workers in India and Syrian refugees in Jordan. Here, out beyond man-made political borders, she finds a boundless realm where we connect as human beings transcending nationality, skin color, gender, socio-economic status, and religion. Home Inside the Globe is an invitation to awaken as individuals so that we can fully participate in creating a better world for all people.
Gail Straub is the author of eight award-winning books. As the co-founder of the Empowerment Institute, she is a leading authority on women’s empowerment, where her work to help women heal from violence and lead productive lives has impacted several million people throughout Africa, India, and the Middle East.

“Home Inside the Globe takes its place beside some of the best travel memoirs, but it stands on its own as a new kind of reading experience. Gail Straub’s writing is infused with the pace of a poet and the grace of a mystic.”—Elizabeth Lesser, cofounder of Omega Institute and author of Broken Open
