Summary

Join us for a heartfelt episode of the Typology as we welcome author Stephanie Duncan Smith, an Enneagram Four, to discuss her new book, Even After Everything: The Spiritual Practice of Knowing the Risks and Loving Anyway.

In this episode, we dive deep into the complexities of joy and sorrow, exploring the dissonance that often accompanies our life experiences. Stephanie shares her personal journey through pregnancy loss and the profound lessons she learned about resilience, empathy, and the importance of embracing both beauty and pain.

Discover how the liturgical calendar can provide a framework for understanding our own stories and the significance of naming our darkest nights. This conversation is a rich exploration of what it means to love deeply, take risks, and find meaning in the midst of life's challenges.
