To Put You in Your Freedom: John Fontana

In 2018, we spoke to our guest John Fontana about his work to establish a new program for executives transitioning ‘from warriors to elders' as they moved from the business world into service to others. Now, more than two years later, the first cohort of Ignatian Legacy Fellows have completed their journeys together. He tells us about what they have learned along the way, and what comes next for the program.

The Ignatian Legacy Fellows Program is a yearlong program hosted by Loyola University Chicago, Boston College, Santa Clara University, and Georgetown University that includes personal reflection, guided meditation, spiritual readings and discussion, and volunteer service – that all point toward helping participants better understand where they might be called to use their gifts in service to others.
