Has an unexpected life event ever derailed your creative journey? 

When I reached out to illustrator Rebecca Green to join me on the podcast for the second time, she graciously volunteered to speak about a tragedy she had experienced in recent years, that brought her life to a complete stand still. Join us for a deeply vulnerable and inspiring conversation about this artist’s journey from grief to renewed creativity.

Content Warning: this episode contains a conversation around the death of an infant.
