Seeking Tribe #1: Return of the Newsletter


After an unexpectedly chaotic start to 2020, I am now settled and ready to focus a significant amount of time on a few personal projects:

  • Regularly creating blog posts, book reviews, and audio content

My intention with Seeking Tribe is to connect you all to ideas, people, perspectives, and practices that will enable us to solve the looming problems humanity, and our local communities, will face over the coming decades.

Who you gonna believe, your eyes or your own lying mind?”
