This is the first time I've had the honor to interview Stephen, and I'm so excited to see all the places we go together. He's such an unusual and original thinker. Let me tell you a little bit about Stephen Jenkinson. He's a culture activist, a storyteller. A ceremonialist and an off-the-grid farmer advocating for a handmade life and eloquence.
He has a master's degree in theology from Harvard and a master's degree in social work from the University of Toronto. He's the founder of the Orphan School of Wisdom, and he's the author of several stunning and surprising books. including the highly acclaimed Die Wise and get ready for this, a new book from Sounds True. It's called Matrimony, Ritual, Culture, and the Heart's Work. Friends, stay with us.
