The Alchemy of Heartbreak and Hope

Keynote talk given at the 2020 annual gala event of the Whidbey Institute.

“When we truly open our hearts to each other, there is no burden too heavy for us to carry together, there is no pain too deep for us to hold in each other’s arms. And it’s in that place—of feeling the Earth’s injuries, and feeling it with each other—that the alchemy emerges.
