Pharos

In uncertain times, most people look for more answers. This book suggests something different: find your own lighthouse first.

Pharos — named after the ancient lighthouse of Alexandria — is a guide for leaders, entrepreneurs, and anyone who has stopped trusting their own direction. Through self-reflection, practical strategies, and personal stories, Christina and Peter Illing show how clarity returns. Not from the outside. From within.

The book explores authenticity, deliberate decision-making, and what it means to lead from a place of inner stability — even when the world around you is shifting. Each chapter is also an invitation: to pause, to reflect, and to apply what resonates immediately.

Pharos is dedicated in part to the island of Hvar. The retreat work that grew from it is what you find here.
