1 小时 5 分钟Hey.
So there's something about the sound of Mark Nepos voice that just kind of puts me at ease.
He's been a guest on this show a number of times.
Mark has been immersed in a path of spiritual inquiry for more than 40 years.
He's taught all over the world, authored more than 20 books, including the number one New York Times bestseller, the Book of Awakening, more alone together, and a lot of others.
His books have been translated into more than 20 languages.
And in 2014, Mark traveled the country with Oprah Winfrey on her sold out the life you want tour and has appeared several times on her Super Soul Sunday program.
So the last time I sat down with Mark, we caught up on life, as we often do, and then we dove into his decades long inquiry around how we are wired to live in community, what happens when the bonds that connect us fail, and how to rediscover community at a time when we need it more than ever.
This conversation was actually recorded before this year, where we have felt the pain of struggling to figure out how to be in community, how to relate to others at a moment that we are all more polarized.
And because of the year, we've just been through more physically separated than ever before.
So the conversation is more relevant and more needed than ever before.
So excited to share this best out of conversation with you.
I'm Jonathan Fields, and this is good life project.
It's so good to be hanging out.
I feel like every couple of years we touch base, we check in.
You and I are in sort of different moments, different explorations.
But I think what's kind of interesting, and for those who are tuning in for the first time, Mark and I have sat down a couple times before on earlier podcasts, and we'll certainly reference those in the show notes so you can kind of get the backstory.
This conversation, I think, is really, it's important, it's timely.
And you have been.
Your 20th book is as 20th, right?
