An Austin native turned Buddhist monk, my first guest is Stephen Torrence. We get into his evolution from a tech startup geek, to touring ecovillages around the world, to becoming a practicing monk, and elaborate on how suffering sneaks into our daily lives. 

If you're on a spiritual journey and keep finding yourself looking out in the world for the next thing that'll lead to fulfillment, consider that what you're looking for is already inside of you, and consider listening to this episode of Stephen's fascinating story and how Buddhism has transformed his life.
