Dear friends,
I hope you are staying safe and healthy during these challenging times. So much has changed in a month and, like you, I’m scrambling to make sense of our new world order. In these unprecedented times, I’ve found myself turning toward the natural world and the collective humanity of our experience for signs of clarity and grace.
I wanted to share some recent work with you, as well as a deal on the Kindle version of The Sun is a Compass, available for just $2.99 on Amazon and other retailers this Sunday (April 12th) only. If anyone you know is looking for an escape to wild places, please pass it on! Wishing you all a peaceful weekend.

Good research isn’t enough: we have to tell our stories (Los Angeles Times)

And for an insightful, compassionate view from the frontlines of an ICU unit in New York City, my sister-in-law, Colleen Farrell, wrote this piece for the Washington Post: My hospital used to have all kinds of ICUs. Now we just have the COVID-19 one.
All my best,
Caroline
