INTERVIEW

Interview Published on September 22, 2025

Stephen was recently interviewed by Mark Walsh on The Embodiment Coaching Podcast. Here’s what he had to say about their time together:

It was an absolute pleasure having you on the show. Your insights and expertise have been welcome additions to the podcast, and we can’t wait for our audience to see this conversation.

Stephen Jenkinson doesn’t offer comfort. He offers presence, precision and poetry. In this wide-ranging and unsparing conversation, we explore what it means to live in a time of endings, and why grief isn’t something to get over, but something to serve. We speak about the crisis of meaning in modern life, the cost of a death-phobic culture, and how elderhood is a task, not a stage. Stephen challenges the spiritual bypasses of modern healing work, questions the ease with which people chase transcendence, and asks what it might take to stay loyal to a world that breaks your heart.
