Praise for The Soul’s Red Thread
Scott has been a respected wilderness guide at The School of Lost Borders for more than twenty years, and with this book he tells the story of his own voyage into the wilderness of a human soul. One of the main gifts that a guide brings to rites-of-passage work is to listen, and here Scott listens deeply to his own heart. Listen along with him. His story offers wisdom that can support any of us to listen more deeply to ourselves.
— Meredith Little, co-founder of The School of Lost Borders
Scott’s book arrives at just the right time. In a global world where so many feel powerless, our stories are all we have. Our stories must be told. There is an art to telling a life story and this book helps us to learn that art. Scott has taken the warp of his life and interwoven the weft of a red thread by drawing upon his life as a doctor, his work as a rites-of-passage guide, and his calling as a spiritual seeker. Scott’s gift as a storyteller makes this book both personal and universal, for in the telling of his stories he invites readers to discover more deeply their own.
