Welcome to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast. Today I interviewed Rachel Jepson. She's a senior editor at Holloway. And it was a really great conversation that we had about reality and about non duality and about writing and how to find out what it is you're here to write. Hope you enjoy this episode. If you do, please find us on itunes by searching for Crazy Wisdom or also on Spotify, on Stitcher. And you can also leave a review if this episode in some way moved you. I really appreciate that. And also I want to let you guys know that I am doing four breathwork sessions a day. One at 8am, one at 11am, one at 2pm and one at 6pm and all those times are in Pacific standard time, San Francisco time. Eventually I want to build a tool that will help me to display the time in the local person's time, but that doesn't exist yet, or at least I can't find it. Please let me know if you do. And if you'd like to join one of these breathwork sessions, just find me on twitteruartalsop III and send me an email. Send me your email address and then I write a letter. I write an email every, every Sunday where I give the times and the links to these episodes, to these sessions throughout the day. So have a great day. Welcome to the Crazy Wisdom podcast. My guest here is Rachel Jepson. She is the senior editor at Holloway. And what do you guys do at Holloway?

So at Holloway, we publish long form reference works on complex topics related to modern work. So it's half sort of a publishing company, half a software company. We also create. I don't, I'm not an engineer, but we also create a product in which we publish these very long form guides. It has search and sort of ways to make this expert content navigable, discoverable, accessible.

Your first full transcript is free. After that, an email opens every transcript in the index — a list of readers we can write to, not a guest book.
