The Reacher’s Handbook

A podcast on making social media meaningful, finding your joy, and what to do when the life you’ve imagined for yourself gets stuck in committee.

In 2016 I left Unitarian Universalist seminary to experiment with new ways of building community and making meaning. Today, I run Mirth and Dignity, a UU humour not for profit with a monthly reach of nearly two million people. Along the way, I learned how to create content that was engaging without feeling the clickbait rage machine. I learned how to make money in new ways. I learned how to create organizations that run totally differently from traditional structures. I learned how to understand marketing and algorithms but not be ruled by them. Whether you’re a religious professional wondering about “New Ministry” or a content creator trying to figure out how to bring more meaning to your work… I created this podcast for you. And filled it with everything that I wish someone had told me ten years ago.

That thing that’s whispering to you? It’s closer than you think.
