Reflections:
Speaking and Writing
Over the years I’ve written and spoken about spirituality, grief, prison education, intentional practices, healing, attention, and what it means to be human.
Some pieces emerged from churches and retreats.
Others from classrooms, relationships, experiments, losses, or conversations that stayed with me.
Below are a few reflections from along the way.
