In this episode we talk about the five of cups, walking through the territories of loss and grief, but we have a poet with us, Arianna Raines, author of A Sand Book, which just won the Kingsley Tufts Poetry award and was long-listed for the National Book award… but awards aside, we’re happy to have her here because, as everyone knows, poets take our greatest heartaches and weave them into something beautiful, something useful, some kind of magic or medicine.
