This book by Henri Nouwen came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Elizabeth Lesser. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
Beloved author Henri Nouwen reflects on the spiritual significance of death and life in this moving meditation dedicated to "all those who suffer the pain that death can bring and who search for new life."
“there's one by a catholic mystic he's no longer alive on ree nuyen and i think it's called on grief it's a small book and it's a beautiful book”— Elizabeth Lesser
