Karen Fredette on the Art of Being Alone (and Not Lonely)

Listen to Karen Karper Fredette, a contemporary hermit and former nun, in conversation with Prof. Hitendra Wadhwa, exclusively on Intersections. They discuss the rich and unexpected possibilities that solitude holds for each of us, small steps we can all take to practice solitude in our modern (and for many, urban!) lives, and the power of communing with nature, and with our own inner voice.

Intersections podcast advocates the idea of activating our best self by dissolving boundaries – between profit and purpose, theory and practice, east and west, science and spirituality, inner and outer, and more.
