Have you ever wondered what it would be like if more of us knew how to intentionally connect with what's truly most important to us? On this episode we'll learn about the power of ritual for embodying our values individually, organizationally, and collectively.

Our guest today is Ezra Bookman, a nationally recognized ritual designer, artist, and facilitator, with work featured in the NYTimes, The Atlantic, VICE, and ABC News. Ezra is founder of Ritualist, a creative studio helping leaders cultivate more conscious companies and connected communities.

“The right rituals in the right places will help you build your culture, cohere your team, and achieve your goals. Building your own rituals is as important as building your product.” ⏤ Reid Hoffman, Co-founder LinkedIn
