Episode #1: Christine Marie Mason

My conversation with Christine Marie Mason was wide-ranging and deep… just like her. We talked about parenting, being a polymath, restorative justice in the prison system and the fact that everything is connected… in fact, indivisible– which, not coincidentally, is also the title of her book. Christine’s life and the philosophical gems she offers an inspiring example for anyone who wants to live fully and authentically without compromise. She’s a model of connection, family and having a huge impact in the world.
