In this inspiring conversation to kick off Season 6, Adam Roa and I explore the transformative power of play as a pathway to personal growth and infinite possibility.
Drawing from his own journey of creative expression and spiritual awakening, Adam shares profound insights on how curiosity, joy, and playful exploration can unlock our deepest potential.
From viral poetry to soul-centered coaching, he reveals how embracing a playful approach to life can lead to unexpected breakthroughs and authentic self-discovery.
As a special highlight, I unexpectedly was invited by Adam to share a vulnerable moment by reading my unpublished poem ‘Deliverance’, embodying the episode's theme of creative liberation and personal transformation.
