It won a PEN Literary Award and was named the E.O. Wilson Science Award winner. It was also named A Christian Science Monitor Best Book of the Year, a 2022 Summer Reading Pick by BUZZFEED, the New York Times Book Review, Kirkus, Time Magazine, Good Morning America, People Magazine and The Washington Post. In this special conversation, we not only learn more about what it means to befriend a fox but we discuss the nature of being part of the natural world, emotional honesty, and the three pillars of the creative writing process: intuition, emotion and wisdom. \n\nThis is perhaps one of the most powerful conversations I've had on Page One about how we interact and come to love ourselves and the world through our relationship with another animal. Spoiler alert. This book will bring tears and make you want to take a walk in the woods and realize you are never alone in nature. I loved meeting Cathy and I sense you will too. Please enjoy this very special episode and share it with a friend.\n"}
