Gifts from the Mountain
Simple Truths for Life’s Complexities is a Ben Franklin Gold Award winner

Whether you are a world-weary worker juggling the demands of a hectic life or a seeker of soul-satisfying experiences, this deceptively simple book is your key to refresh, renew, rethink and recharge.

Inspired by the challenges of backpacking through the Sierras, I discover metaphors for understanding the mundane and the magnificent, the difficult and the delightful, the ordinary and the extraordinary in our 24/7 world. Join this walk in the wilderness to discover fresh perspectives, practical practices and laugh-out-loud-joy in the process.

You’ll find wisdom expressed in a beautiful, economical, easy-to-read-and-grasp fashion that helps your spirit soar and your mind expand. You’ll discover mountains about being, doing, living, and working. Simple truths for trekking through life await in this mountain university.

“Beautiful in its simplicity and rich, timeless wisdom.”

“The natural world has a knack for being able to cut all our complications and confusions down to size. And that’s exactly what Eileen McDargh does with this lyrical book, showing us through observations on the backpacking trail that the path ahead is right in front of us–if we’re really looking. She certainly is, finding lessons for use at home and work in the tenaciousness of a high-altitude flower, the unexpected whims of the elements, and the danger of false confidence on the downhill track. Books that shine the mirror of nature back on us often wind up stuck in the gates from triteness. Not this one. The writing is superb. I kept thinking, I wish I’d seen that on the trail. I wish I’d written that. If you love the outdoors, are a hiking fan, or just want to get some wise words from a pathfinder who can clarify decisions in work or life, check this little book out. It gets you off the bullet train and lets you see the forest AND the trees.”

Joe Robinson, author of Work to Live and founder of ESCAPE Magazine

“Your words and writings deeply moved us, given our love for the hiking and the outdoors as well as our hurried personal and professional ‘life’ schedules. We hope to have the opportunity to meet you in person sometime in the future. Until then, Happy Trails!”

Seth & Tia Wolkov

“What a treasure! This is an eloquent, singular work that transcends words on a page to become an eloquent masterpiece. It not only embodies the heart and spirit of the author; it captures the heart, mind and spirit of the reader. I’m using this as a model for my clients to show how to craft a one-of-a-kind book.”

Sam Horn,
author of POP! Stand Out in Any Crowd
and 15-time Emcee of the world-renowned

"On behalf of The Canadian Payroll Association and the Conference delegates, please accept my sincerest thanks for your contribution to the success of our Conference in Vancouver. Your presentation on "Work for a Living but Still Be Free to Live" was so meaningful for so many of our delegates who feel the stress and pressure of being outstanding employees, managers, parents, daughters or sons, friends etc—all at the same time. Among other things, your thoughtful stories and lessons sent us all away with the resolve to spend more time on the things that truly matter in life—and less time fretting about the things we can't control. Judging from the number of books you sold after your presentation, your words really hit home for so many people!.  I have to tell you what a true pleasure it was to work with you in the planning stages of our conference. You were so flexible and accommodating and dare I say it—so darn to work with. Thank you for making my job so much more pleasant!"
