Topics We Explored:

  • How finding your unique creative process is about introspection, and often staying in those moments of discomfort is where we are informed, transformed and enlightened
  • How we can use moderation and balance to stay present in the middle of a hectic or scary time
  • Why your actions speak much louder than words when it comes to interacting with those different from us, and how you can use those experiences to learn something new
  • How going through difficult times reminds us that our universal love and suffering, as a society, means we’re more together than alone

“It’s the wholeness of life and the human experience that makes us resilient, and allows us not to make everything about us.” — Mark Nepo
