EPISODE DESCRIPTION: Everything changes. Platforms. The Economy. Seasons of Life.  What do you do when these changes block your path in such a way, that no matter how you look at it, you can’t seem to find a path forward? You need to get distance to find perspective, but you can’t always press pause and escape to a two week vacation anytime you get stuck. In this episode we talk about the research backed power of the journey mentality and how to access its perspective shifting magic. This is episode 1 of our ongoing Creative Journey Series.

Sam offers a space for guests to slow down and share how they arrived at the place they are today and where they hope to go tomorrow. Rigorously researched and irrepressibly curious, Talk Easy invites artists, writers, and activists to come to the table and speak from the heart in ways you probably haven't heard from them before. Some of my favorite interviews include talks with Jeff Garlin, Lorde, Nick Offerman, Janelle Monáe, and George Saunders. This season, Sam will sit with folks like Questlove, Alana Haim, Cate Blanchett, Margaret Atwood and more.
