Finding Meaning in the Mess with Kelly Corrigan
It can feel natural to seek wisdom in the big moments of life. But what about looking for wisdom in the smaller moments, the everyday encounters that shape us? In this week’s episode, Simran speaks with bestselling memoirist, Kelly Corrigan. She opens up about the transformative experiences that shaped her life, from a spiritual experience in her youth to the quiet interactions that often hold the deepest meaning.  Kelly then takes us back to her childhood memories, reflecting on the power of connection and how the simple act of being present has made all the difference. Then, through the sudden loss of her mother, we learn how she shaped her views on humility, self-awareness, and the need to unplug from the noise of technology to truly see the world around us.  This conversation is a warm invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with the people and moments that matter most. Resources: Check out Simran’s work on his website at simranjeetsingh.org. Wisdom & Practice is produced in partnership with PRX and the Aspen Institute, with support from the John Templeton Foundation.  Music by Raj Kanwal Singh. This episode was produced by associate producer, Serena Chow, producer, Rithu Jagannath and senior producer, Morgan Flannery. Our project manager is Edwin Ochoa, our show is mixed by Tommy Bazarian and the executive producer of PRX Productions is Jocelyn Gonzales.
