In this first episode of Where Wonder Went, I reflect on five years of publishing my newsletter Down the Rabbit Hole and why I decided to launch this new podcast. I explore the central question behind the series: where did our sense of wonder go? Drawing from my own journey as a sleight of hand magician and curator of wonderful things, I share why wonder often fades as we grow older, the five forces behind its erasure, and why I believe rediscovering it is essential for living with reverence and aliveness.

This episode sets the stage for the conversations and explorations to come as I invite you to join me in the practice of re-enchantment and in finding the extraordinary hidden in everyday life.
