#150 | How To Stay Human As Reality Gets Replaced | Stephen Jenkinson
About this episode
Anya Shakh interviews Stephen Jenkinson about maintaining humanity in a changing reality, drawing from his work and forthcoming book.
I’ve been mentioning how much I have been impacted by Stephen Jenkinson’s work for a while on this show now, and here he is in honor of Ancient Intelligence’s 150th episode (you can access all 150 via Spotify or Apple). We discuss themes from his work, particularly his forthcoming book Trembling, Still: The Awful Clarity of a Mind in Eclipse - a book shaped by a difficult neurodegenerative diagnosis. We explore culture work, the meaning of animism and paganism, beauty, and maintaining our humanity in this postmodern world.
