Hello TTBOOKlings,
In the midst of the holiday season and as the year draws to a close, we bring you a favorite episode of the past year, "Cultivating Wonder." Psychologist Dacher Keltner gives us the story on awe, radio host Lulu Miller helps us understand childlike wonder, and poet Jennifer Michael Hecht offers us something sacred to think about. You might also want to listen back to the classic "Renunciation" episode, which delves into the philosophy of giving something up as we embark on a new year.
Our staff is taking some time off over the next couple of weeks, so the newsletter will be back on Jan. 8. If you would like to give your TTBOOK staff a little gift, consider forwarding to a friend an episode or interview you enjoyed this past year. You can find our vast archive on ttbook.org, or send through any podcast app. In the meantime, I hope you have some great books to read over the holiday, will spend time with people and animals you love, and have many moments of peace.
– Shannon
