Crossing the Threshold: A Vision Quest, a Rite of Passage, and the Four Shields of Human Nature (The Four Shields Book Series, Book 4) (Unabridged‪)‬

A modern world with ancient problems needs ancient solutions.

This audiobook delivers one.

Crossing the Threshold takes you deep into the heart of the 12-day rite of passage vision quest — from council and fasting to mirroring and a year of incorporation.

With clear, grounded storytelling, Blain Bertrand reveals how the Four Shields of Human Nature guide every step of the journey: clarity in the East, emotional truth in the South, shadow work in the West, and responsible adulthood in the North.

This audiobook is for anyone who feels:

stuck between who they are and who they need to become
overwhelmed by modern life and hungry for truth
called to something deeper but unsure how to begin
ready to face themselves fully — and rise


You’ll learn how initiation actually works, why it’s missing in today’s world, and how a single threshold can change the entire course of your life.

Raw, practical, and steady in tone — this is not theory.

It’s a lived map for walking into the wilderness and returning a stronger human being.
