Sharing the Light
with Monique Gray Smith
Hosted by Shelagh Rogers
“Tender words and heartfelt stories provide gentle guidance to remind us how we can care for each other and ourselves, with attention to the profound power of small acts.”
Join our host, Shelagh Rogers, and author Monique Gray Smith, for an evening of uplifting stories, vignettes, and reflections that inspire gratitude, love, joy, and hope in a changing, challenging world.
Through the lens of five transformative practices—gratitude, love, joy, happiness, and hope—bestselling author Monique Gray Smith weaves together short stories, poignant reflections, and thoughtful questions that invite readers to pause and reconnect with their inner light.
Sharing the Light is a powerful reminder that when we embrace our light and share it with the world, that energy not only transforms us but ripples out to uplift everyone around us.
