Today we feature Big Magic, written by the incomparable heart-warmer / spirit-challenger, Elizabeth Gilbert!
We banter all about:
· The magical jewels hidden in each of us, made real by becoming a parent
· How to comfortably co-exist with fear
· Our desire to separate our genius (or lack thereof)  from our sense of self and worth
· The super power that is the “arrogance of belonging”
· A way to think of parenting as a devotional path to stay true to 
· How to embrace the grand paradox of our work being both everything and nothing
· Looking at your lot in life as a tasty shit sandwich
· The ways in which we can meet our destiny with good cheer and curiosity instead of martyrdom
· The ever-powerful reminder to fucking LIGHTEN UP. Seriously. Or not seriously, rather.
