Curious Chat
Each month(ish) I’ll be introducing you to a new person who regularly harnesses their curiosity to do creative and courageous things in the world. Then I’ll pass the baton, and ask my guest to respond to some questions about their own relationship with curiosity, giving us the opportunity to expand our own awareness in ways that can impact the conversations we have with ourselves, and with society around us. Curiosity adds color, so here we go…
