Zak Stein Part 1: Music and Tragedy Between Worlds

This is the first part of mindblowing conversation I had with Dr. Zak Stein.  Trigger warning.  We go really deep really fast.    

Zak Stein is philosopher of education working at the interface of psychology, metaphysics, and politics. He has published two books, including Education in Time Between Worlds, along with dozens of articles. This writing was done as he worked co-founding a non-profit and think tank, as well as teaching graduate students at Harvard, and consulting with technology start-ups. Zak is a long time meditator, musician and caregiver, which has shaped him more than any professional engagements.  (Source: https://www.systems-souls-society.com/people)
