Sarah Sands is a well-known journalist. She edited Readers’ Digest, the Sunday Telegraph and the Evening Standard before becoming editor of Today, BBC Four’s flagship news programme. Recently she abandoned her career in exchange for a quieter, more fluid life and has written three books about monasticism, faith and inner peace. She also now organises pilgrimages. She talks to Charlotte Metcalf about her time in journalism, the deaths of her father, her brother and her ex-husband, Julian Sands and her quest for a very different way of life.
