Today's guest-host, Peterson Toscano, is bringing us an incredible creative gift to us today, and it's clear to me that he's not just showing off his writing gifts, which are considerable, but he's hoping to inspire you to develop and use similar gifts, hopefully for the kind of world-growing, world-healing, purposes that are at the core of Peterson's work. So, on one level, you'll hear some of the steps that he goes through to hone his writing, but on another level you're going to be diving deep into the ideas, emotions, visions, and concerns that Peterson has for the world.
