The Bookends of Grief.

I recently returned home to my wisdom watering hole at Modern Elder Academy. As the guy, who was once dubbed the ‘Youngest Modern Elder,’ I get a true sense of gratitude knowing I have started this migration earlier in life and get to continue to meet those who also chose it for themselves for years to come.

The Bookends of Grief.

"I Baja-ed It!"

A year of nomading and grieving. A year of honoring and not fixing. A year of active and empathic listening. A year of loving, not just others, but myself. A year of powerful badassery. A year exploring and navigating being Just to The Left of Death three times.

"I Baja-ed It!"

Spying on the Divine.

Addison wrote this poem on Monday while participating in a Sabbatical Session “awe walk” at MEA in Baja. The ocean has a thousand moods and yet, we still trust and sit with it. The sky is not controllable and yet, we still honor it.
