At On Being, I worked with remarkable people and joined beautiful conversations. I continue to be inspired by all that Krista Tippett built and remain grateful to her and all of my colleagues for the work we've done together.
I am now honored to be a part of the On Being Guild alongside Krista Tippett, John Paul Lederach, and Pádraig Ó Tuama. The four of us continue to collaborate on projects that cultivate and inspire social healing in a world with entrenched wounds and rife with efforts to tear us apart.
Below are some of the conversations I was part of, from the stage at Riverside Church and beyond. Each one is available in full on On Being, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
The Fierce Urgency of Now
