This week, I chat with Pia Leichter, an artist and embodiment guide, to explore how creativity, play, and ritual have helped both of us move through life’s biggest transitions. We talked about the beauty of death ceremonies, romanticizing life, the power of stillness, and how tuning into our bodies can guide us through grief, joy, and everything in between.
Some of what we explored:
✦ How creativity opens up when we stop trying to control everything
✦ How pleasure can be a guide, not just a goal
✦ What death rituals can teach us about living more fully
✦ The importance of play and joy
If you’re navigating change or craving a deeper connection with yourself, I hope this episode gives you space and insight to imagine a new way forward.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
