          What do you think would happen if we stopped guarding our hearts and started getting curious about what breaks them open?

          Meet Beth. Beth A. Smith is a Naropa alumnx (Contemplative Psychotherapy ‘06)  and the CEO of @stickergiant --a company with 130 employees voted “One of the Best Places to Work in 2018” by Denver Business Journal and again in 2022 by Built in Colorado.

Smith is one of the few CEOs who identifies as gender non-binary, and they say they utilize their training in contemplative psychotherapy all the time to meet the demands of being a leader in the fast-paced world of business.

They say their experience at Naropa prepared them “in a way nothing else really could have” to be of benefit leading a local fast-growing organization with the support of a contemplative framework and practices.

Naropa’s values of self-understanding, compassion, world wisdom, academic rigor, and civic engagement have never been more relevant than in today’s fast-paced, instantly connected, global landscape.

          Paula Gasparini-Santos is a Brazilian-born artist living in Boulder, Colorado, and a graduate of Naropa’s MA in Transpersonal Art Therapy program. She is the cover artist for Naropa magazine's 21–22 issue. 

The heart is a reoccurring symbol in Paula's work because, in her own words, "You have to expose that heart, you have to expose everything that is within for us to be able to do the work of healing.” 

Her art supports her heart’s calling to help people, in their transparency, bringing truth to light, so there can be an honest conversation and more honest connection and intimacy.

          We stand in solidarity with the communities of Buffalo, New York, and all the victims and survivors of gun violence and white supremacy. 

We pray for and with the victims, their families, and their loved ones.

Thank you for these powerful words, @clintsmithiii
