Opening into Softness, with Sarah Keck
02/20/25 • 50 min
In this episode, I had the joy of being in conversation with a close friend, Sarah Keck. Sarah is the co-owner of Common Ground, a coffeeshop that is such generous outflow of community and love, it’s hard for me to convey in words. But in short: she and her business partner have built something magical, and I know there is room for us to learn from her here. Sarah brings her magic to both outer and inner life, and she also brought it to this conversation, which we began in the last days of bright-dark December.
This episode holds such different energy than the first, and I love the emerging tapestry of all this show will hold. I also love that Sarah took us deep into the territory of softness, which calls to me loudly, gently. I hope you enjoy listening, and discovering one more beautiful soul in this wide world.

Creating Space for the Questions, with Martha Williams
In this episode, I spoke with Martha Williams, who is a writer and the director of programs and education at The Community Library in Ketchum, Idaho. Martha and I met in the context of her work with The Community Library’s Ernest Hemingway legacy initiatives, and I was immediately struck with her grounded, deep presence. In this multi-week conversation, I was able to get to know her more and see further textures of presence, as we talked of her work, her writing, and her beloved walks through the woods; as we talked of poetry, community, this precipice of time, and the gift of allowing space—around ourselves as well as the civilization-defining questions we’ll be living into in the coming decades. I loved listening to Martha's spacious reflections, and I hope they meet you too with much goodness.
To learn more about the programs Martha helps facilitate at The Community Library, you can visit https://comlib.org/programs/.
