Where we live informs our hungers and how we comfort those hungers.

When we have some deposable income, a little bit extra to buy things we desire, we easily begin to refer to the world as a consumer, including our connections and community interactions.

My guest today, Ashley Hales writes that the Suburbs have always promised that "You can have it all!" Her new book sheds light on the subtle, isolating, and destructive gods of "the good life" and she astutely notes that "healing begins at the places of [our] hungers."
