#63 Thomas Doochin & Tess Sherrow - Our Yearning for Belonging in an Alienating Age

from Death in The Garden · host Jake Marquez and Maren Morgan and Thomas Doochin

We are happy to announce that the podcast is back! To break our long hiatus, we’re excited to share with you this beautiful podcast with our friends Thomas and Tess. Tess is a home-birth midwife and Thomas runs Heart of Men, a group council with the aim of reorienting men internally and externally and helping heal the wounded masculine in the culture. As you’ll hear, Tess and Thomas feel called to tend to life in different, but incredibly powerful ways. This beautiful conversation explores our yearning for kin, and the space between the reality of modernity and where our visions want to be — expressed through the yin and yang wisdom of Tess’ and Thomas’ essences. We discuss the challenge of trying to resolve generations of dysfunction in our lifetimes, and the necessity to do just that. We discuss grief, worthiness, and finding connection in an alienating world, but above all, we talk about the difficulty of being a human being in this time that we’re living in. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we enjoyed having it. It was a very cathartic conversation and we feel it’s the perfect dialogue to restart the podcast with. If you’d like to join Thomas’ Council of Brothers, please check out his website and also follow him here on Substack. Thank you so much for subscribing to Death in The Garden. If you enjoyed this podcast, please share with your friends. This is a public episode.
