As we get ready for this week’s release of the new live recording of FAITHFUL’s “Go and Speak” album, we’re sharing some unreleased conversations captured during that week’s recording sessions.

In this episode we get to sit with Leslie Jordan and Sarah Macintosh, who have a unique perspective on the writing of the songs on this album and the writing of the first FAITHFUL book. They are a part of a writing workshop called “The Fold”, where they lead retreats for writers to create quickly around a series of prompts and then share those prompts with their fellow writers in a really affirming and constructive way.

Mini versions of these workshops have kicked off every FAITHFUL writing camp, and they’re directly responsible for some of the most beautiful writing in the book and album. Let’s pull up a chair with Leslie and Sarah as they tell us more about the workshops and how they’ve chosen to lead this amazing group of creative women.

We’ll hear, too, how writing and community go hand in hand, why writing in response to a prompt is so helpful, and why YOU, yes you, have more than enough to offer. Let’s listen.
