I didn’t know much about Jessica Willis Fisher before she came over to the studio. I knew she was part of the family band The Willis Clan, and I knew something bad had happened — but I didn’t know the shape of it. Or what she’d done with the pieces.
Turns out, she’s one of the most quietly courageous people I’ve ever sat across from.
In this episode of The Morse Code Podcast, Jessica and I talk about the long road from silence to self-expression — how writing became a lifeline, and how songwriting helped her reclaim her identity on her own terms. We talk about trauma, yes, but more importantly, we talk about what comes after: the craft, the healing, the stubborn hope of making something meaningful out of the mess.
It’s a conversation about boundaries and bravery — about telling the truth even when it’s costly. I think anyone who’s ever started over (creatively, emotionally, spiritually) will find something to hold onto here.
Stick around till the end of the episode for a live in-studio performance of her song “Seeds.” It’s spare and luminous and all the more powerful for what it doesn’t say. You can also watch the performance as a standalone video if you want to send it to someone who needs it.
