It has been a privilege to live in extraordinary times with "The Double Helix" and "The Journey of Man" as the bookends of my life. Thank you for the amazing work you've accomplished.

Your book and project was life transforming. At the time I was tracing humanity's lineage through the symbols of ancient mother Goddesses across the cultures. Your research helped to confirm many of the things I discovered. Thank you. I follow all your work. May you continue to live an inspired life, as you inspire others to think with new lens and internal maps.

Members of my family first had genetics testing done through the Genograohics Project. It was that testing which revealed that our matrilineal lineage is Native American from the West Coast, something which had previously been hidden from us for several generations. Later I became a big fan of the Insitem Podcasts. Please start them up again! You have contributed to both knowledge & to the breakdown of barriers between peoples. Thank you.

A few months ago, I discovered The Insight Podcast and have listened to almost all of them starting from 2018 and was disappointed that they were discontinued in August 2020. Upon following a link from one of them though, I learned that you have started a new blog and I am absolutely delighted. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, intelligence, and enthusiasm on the subject of population genetics. So glad you’re back.
