Today's interview is with Natasha Scripture. Natasha is an author, poet, health coach and former aid worker. As an emergency spokesperson for the United Nations, Natasha covered humanitarian crises around the world, including conflicts and natural disasters in Ethiopia, Haiti, Libya, and Pakistan. Before the UN, she worked as a writer, producer and editor for a variety of organizations, including the BBC, CNN, Al Jazeera English, TED, National Geographic and Condé Nast Publications.

Natasha has lived in several different countries and travels frequently. Yet no matter where she is in the world, she seeks to inspire and empower women with her writing and storytelling.In an adventurous and emotionally charged memoir, MAN FAST: A Memoir, Natasha Scripture asks herself: What is my purpose? Recognizing her privileged upbringing, Natasha wanted to connect with people and the world in a whole new way. Fed up with her demanding career, and the pressure to “settle down,” and “find a man,” Natasha decides to go on a man fast. Yes, it’s exactly as it sounds. After the death of her father, she realized she needed to do some soul-searching, to turn inward, and to do that, she needed to do what you could call a cleanse, ridding herself of anything standing in the way of her self-discovery. Men were at the top of the list. Natasha spreads her spiritual journey across four continents and MAN FAST takes her from meditating in an Ayurvedic ashram in southern India to toiling on a vineyard on Mount Etna to going on a solo-safari in a game reserve in southern Tanzania (where she also marries herself— yes, it’s a thing). With chapters tied to actionable themes—Allowing, Surrendering, Committing, Connecting, and Being—her book is an antidote to a culture that prizes finding the right man and settling down into a conventional pattern over taking the time to know and live and love your true self.Resources Mentioned In The EpisodeNatasha's book: https://www.amazon.com/Man-Fast-Memoir-Natasha-Scripture/dp/1542091187Website: http://natashascripture.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natashascripture/My book: https://www.amazon.com/Use-Your-Difference-Make-Cross-Cultural/dp/1119590698/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

MAN FAST – A Memoir with Natasha ScriptureAired Wednesday, 28 August 2019, 3:00 PM ETJoin us this “Wisdom Wednesday” on INSPIRED LIVING RADIO as we discuss ‘MAN FAST’ with author, poet, humanitarian, and former aid worker, Natasha Scripture.INSPIRED LIVING – LIVE INTERNET RADIO:12PM PST / 1PM MT / 2PM CST / 3pm ESThttps://lnkd.in/eBpHBiR*Please ask questions related to the topic of the show only*OM TIMES RADIO: 1-202-570-7057TOPIC:Despite the pressures from her wonderful, but overbearing Indian mother to find a man and settle down, Natasha Scripture wasn’t ready to get married. Nor did she want to work in an office pushing papers. She wanted an exciting, globetrotting career. So when she landed her dream job as an aid worker for the United Nations, her addiction to adrenaline and fear of committing to one place, or person, was with her for the ride. But it all took a turn when her father became ill and she made the choice to remove herself from the frontlines, taking a job at UN headquarters in New York to be closer to him. At the age of thirty-eight, Natasha finds herself at a draining desk job, burned out from dating, and shaken by the loss of her father. Becoming increasingly aware of time and seeing the other single, childless, forty-something-year-old women surrounding her in her field, she realizes it’s time for a change. She had noticed that while she was traveling the globe, pursuing a “relationship with humankind,” she had forgotten about one of the most important relationships – the one with herself. In an adventurous and emotionally charged memoir, MAN FAST: A Memoir, Natasha Scripture asks herself: What is my purpose? Recognizing her privileged upbringing, Natasha wanted to connect with people and the world in a whole new way!ABOUT:Natasha Scripture is an author, poet, humanitarian, and former aid worker.

We marvel at the mind-blowing experiences that our guests share with us and our newest guest, author, poet, activist, and former aid worker, Natasha Scripture, is no exception. In this compelling, heartfelt, and deeply moving discussion, Scripture guides us through highlights of her newest book, Man Fast: A Memoir, where she abandons the societal norm of “coupling up” and takes a hiatus from dating in order to not only find herself, but to truly identify her life purpose. Reeling from grief over the loss of her father, frustrated over failed relationships, and needing to go deeper within herself, Scripture embarks on daring and challenging adventures in her ultimate quest for meaning.

This one will have you thinking, appreciating, and possibly planning; the world is out there and our soul is right here—for us to explore, discover, and love.

Dr. Jeanette welcomes Natasha Scripture, author of Man Fast: A Memoir, to share her relationships with humanity and self. What is the relationship we have with self, our soul and others? Are we on the fast track and going through life with blinders? Perhaps we are on a mission and feel it is a singular journey, taking no time to stop and look around at the reality around us. What does the world hold if you are truly in awareness and seek out the stories others have to tell? Are you seeking to try and fix the world or find solutions to problems that are pushed on the victims? What is the cycle of life that takes you on a journey to seek and then it loops right back to self? Why is this important in this time of 2019? Can we fix the world? Do we have relationships with those that share our thoughts and ideals? Do we find people to join together to create a new world of harmony regardless of the challenges?

Overcome by emotions from the loss of her father, pressures from a demanding job, and conflicted emotions over failed relationships, author Natasha Scripture embarked on a journey to answer the question at the center of her anxiety..."What is my purpose?" Natasha's book Man Fast chronicles her journey to self-discovery with brutal honesty, wit, and keen observation, and shares the story of her own spiritual awakening...starting with the decision to fast from dating. This is a good episode for anyone who has been badgered with the question, "when are you going to settle down and get married?"

Her soul-searching journey takes her deep into the wilderness: from meditating in an Ayurvedic ashram in southern India to toiling on a vineyard on Mount Etna to going on a solo-safari in southern Tanzania (where she also marries herself-yes, it's a thing). ​This is a book to inspire readers who also want to discover their truest, wildest, most empowered selves.

This week we’re bringing you our conversation with Natasha Scripture, a mixed desi author, poet, activist and former aid worker. As a spokesperson for the United Nations, Natasha covered humanitarian crises around the world, including conflicts and natural disasters in Ethiopia, Haiti, Libya, and Pakistan.

Yet no matter where she is in the world, she seeks to inspire and empower women with her writing and storytelling. Today, we discuss her new book ‘Man Fast’, her identity as a half desi (her mother is Pakistani/Indian and her father American), the timeline society imposes on women based on biological clocks and the need to “settle down”, and her journey of coping with loss and reinventing herself.
