What happens when we stop gathering? Bruce Feiler, seven-time New York Times bestselling author, explores why humans need rituals, especially during the uncertain moments that shape our lives. In his new book, A Time to Gather, he looks at everything from weddings and funerals to forest bathing, organ donation, divorce parties, and the everyday “bites of passage” that bring us back to one another. Bruce argues that rituals can help counter loneliness, polarization, and the ways technology has pulled us away from real-world connection. He and Guy Kawasaki also explore why the next generation of rituals may come from the bottom up—and why choosing ritual over virtual connection may be one of the most human things we can do.--Guy Kawasaki is on a mission to make you remarkable.
