{"product_id":"book-2x1c","title":"Perseverance","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this 2026 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, Wheatley draws on a Hopi prophecy of \"letting go of the shore\" and explores how to persevere through grief, chaos, and civilizational collapse. She discusses \"dwelling mind\", greenwashing, bearing witness, groundedness, and hope as commitment rather than certainty of outcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMargaret J Wheatley, EdD is an internationally acclaimed writer, speaker, and teacher.
