Grief caught me unawares this past month, and it's been a strange and beautiful journey. In this episode I talk about my grandpa, who passed away recently, about my forefathers, and about grappling with my heritage. I explore the aloneness I have been sitting with recently, and the joy I have somehow experienced in this process. I also read you a piece of my writing that was recently published in The Dark Mountain Project's annual publication (Issue 20: Abyss), titled 'Do not avert your eyes'.

About me: My name is Sage Freda and I'm a storyteller and journeyer who currently lives on a farm in South Africa with my dog and too many books. I am setting out on some new adventures soon and hope you'll come along for the ride!
