(there’s a rich audio version of this post above, if you’d care to listen)
Welcome to season four of the Story Paths podcast, and newsletter.
I'm writing this (originally on paper) from within a wooden cabin off-grid in a valley known as Saranagati Valley, a place with whom I share deep experiences at key points of my life. I’m looking out over arid hills and the misty valley in the early morning, watching the sun creep down the hill on the far side as shadows recede and the day begins.
I'm curious where you're reading this. Perhaps at home, or in a free moment at work, on the bus…
If you're a returning listener for the podcast, you can trust that this season will bring more of what you love. There will be explorations of story-making and storytelling, narrative experiments, and discussions with interesting guests.
Also, in this season, Story Paths will be reinvented. This podcast is now joined by the Story Paths Newsletter, goes deeper and wider into what’s spoken of in the podcast.
In this season, I’ll be getting into the nitty-gritty of how stories work, the beauty of how they work. And to top it off, we’ll explore how this nitty-gritty and beauty play with each other.
This will be practical, and evocative.
There is much in store for you, from the journeys of planets to the journeys of turtles, and how all this helps us in the stories of our own lives and vocations.
Yes, vocation. I’ll focus this season on how stories relate to our chosen work, and how we can find the meaningful stories within that work.
There will be a free and paid version of this podcast and newsletter, with the paid version being a fuller exploration, with more possibility for interaction and practice telling yours tories.
Until the next...
