Here is the preface from the audiobook version of Making Global Sense

Because my voice is  rough from cancer treatments, your narrator is Daniel Greenberg, a professional voice artist. His soulwork features supporting intentional communities worldwide, so he recorded this preface test run in India, and he'll be recording  the full audiobook in Mozambique. 

The audiobook will be available by summer 2025r. Please visit GlobalSen...
