Prentis Hemphill, known for their work on Finding Our Way, now hosts Becoming the People Podcast with Prentis Hemphill. Here, Prentis engages in thoughtful, often intimate conversations with a range of voices-thinkers, artists, and practitioners who are actively shaping our understanding of society and culture. These dialogues circle around urgent, foundational questions: what does genuine human evolution look like, and how can we foster relationships that don't just connect us but fundamentally change us for the better? Each episode feels like a shared inquiry into the mechanics of healing, both personal and collective. You'll hear discussions that are less about easy answers and more about exploring the nuanced, sometimes difficult terrain of how we live with one another. This podcast serves as a space to sit with the complexities of transformation, examining the daily practices and big ideas that might guide us toward becoming different people, and in turn, creating a different world. It’s for anyone who believes that the path forward is woven through honest connection and courageous self-reflection.
