Today we are kicking off a special series for May: we’re revisiting the most re-listened to episodes from Seasons 1 and 2 of TLS. And I’ll be sharing the insights that have personally stuck with me the most from these incredible guests since the episodes first aired as well.
To kick things off, we are starting with best-selling author Elizabeth Gilbert. In this episode, Liz shares on a variety of topics including one of her newest books, Big Magic, creativity, curiosity vs. passion, and her thoughts on being a trickster and student.
This episode is perfect for anyone looking to have a more compassionate + creative life, career, and relationship with themselves.
