How do you assess the opportunities you've taken and choices you've made in life? As a 17-year-old, Alexandra Pratt shared her desire to be a Renaissance Woman. The many achievements of Renaissance Man Leonardo da Vinci inspired her as she started along the path of college, work, and family. "How to Make a Renaissance Woman?" is both a memoir of Pratt's life as well as a dialogue with herself - and da Vinci - about the highs, lows and in betweens of a life well-lived. And about what might persist beyond one short human life.
"Have I put my talents together well, focused them in ways to create something better than the individual parts, and does that dot-connected whole have some meaning to
fellow humans? Have I made myself a modern-day Leonardo?" she asks, in thought-provoking essays looking back at her childhood and work and life experiences.
The author at 60 makes clear she is sharing a life still in progress. Her hard-earned insights, offered with humor and perspective, provide learnings and wisdom to inspire you to assess and appreciate your own path in life.
Are you a Renaissance person? Do you desire to be one?
