At the intersection of creativity and soul.

Love! Each time I listen to an episode, I find exactly the words I need to hear to move me forward on my journey. It's like listening in on the best friends I haven't met yet.

Illuminating Conversations for Everyone

I am a longtime follower of Jen Lee's work. I delight in taking my seat at any table that Jen sets. Jen's offering of Retrospectives is exceptional! These are relevant, insightful, funny and real interviews with poets, painters, performers, educators, mothers, daughters, sons, brothers, partners ... human beings. This series is accessible to all. Listen to another speak about his/her inner and outer terrain and discover something(s) about yourself and where you are on your map.
