#1 Going deeper Interview with Julius Lester, Part One. I interviewed Julius 3 and a half years before his death in 2018. We spoke about his life, his work as a writer, musician, photographer, lay Rabbi, and more. He shared his thoughts about aging and race and more. The interview is continued in Part Two.

Hello and welcome to my podcast of my Going Deeper interviews, dating back to 2014.

What drew me to doing these interviews? It came out of my love for authentic conversation and my training in Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) — a non-denominational chaplaincy training that emphasizes presence and being led by the one with whom you are sitting.

How do I pick my interviewees? Mostly, I just go with whom I find interesting and whose story I’d like the audience to know.

Sitting in the studio, the room dark, the lights accentuating our connection, I get into an altered state sometimes, really enjoying the conversation.

After the fact, and the post-interview addition of photos, I feel proud of these little gems we have created together. Something lasting and important.

So, that a little background about these Going Deeper Interviews. I hope you enjoy listening to them, and that they bring you some inspiration.

And please let me know what you think!
