Beautifully Unfinished (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the work was never meant to be completed, but is always ongoing?I think back to our stories of the creation of the first human, whose role was to tend to the garden and care for the animals—working with and alongside the natural rhythms of nature. Planting here, pruning there. Sometimes, that is what the work of being human feels like. We are tending to our gardens: the garden of our own soul, the gardens of our relationships, and the gardens of our communities. There is no single moment
Going Dark in Casablanca (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I really do value a digital detox—just not when it’s forced on me in a foreign country. It happened relatively suddenly: my iPhone stopped working out after a day at the beach so I think it was related to the intense heat.

How are you adjusting?In any major transition—whether moving across the world or stepping into a new organization—there is a unique window of grace known as the honeymoon period. And it is, without a doubt
The Power of Community Care (opens the original)
Read excerpt
History has a funny way of repeating itself—and sometimes on a different continent.The last time I got locked out of my apartment, I was a teenager traveling home for a long weekend from my boarding school in Connecticut. Stranded in the hallway, I headed down to the second floor, knocked on my best friend’s door, and hung out for a few hours until my mother returned home.Fast forward to this past weekend in Casablanca, when I found myself standing outside my door which slammed shut behind me wh
