I recently had the pleasure of catching up with Dr Arne Rubinstein and picking his prodigious mind about rites of passage. We discussed transformational processes (particularly the transition of boys to men), the role of mentors and story-telling in sporting communities, the effects of digital technology on humans, and much more! It was a fascinating conversation and I am honoured to have the privilege of sharing it with all of you.
Hope you enjoy,
Lorcan
