Ep. 9 - The Questions Without Answers (with Krista Tippett)

Why do children make ordinary things feel extraordinary again? Writer and On Being host Krista Tippett reflects on how becoming a mother transformed the way she sees the world, and why wonder may be one of parenthood's most overlooked gifts.

Shownotes:

• Krista's long-running podcast On Being explores spirituality, ethics, science and what it means to be human.
• In the episode with Buddhist teacher Sylvia Boorstein Krista reflects on a conversation that reshaped how she understood humility and "new eyes."
• Krista reflects on the work of bioethicist Laurie Zoloth, whose writing explores what it means to remain in relationship with people who are different from us. Her ethics of encounter suggests that caring for others begins not with agreement, but with a willingness to stay present, even when relationships are difficult.
• This podcast is part of the Early Childhood Matters platform by the Van Leer Foundation.
