In this episode, Sandra shares her journey as a poet, her inspirations, and the creative process. For her, poetry is a way of looking at things and recognizing that there is more to life than just ourselves - it's about seeing how gloriously small we are.
Part of the magic of Sandra's process is that when a strong feeling passes through her experience she refuses to ignore it. Our conversation also explores the relationship between creativity and spirituality and the bottomless void that dwells within every person.
