The latest conversation to drop is with Zoe Clarke-Coats, who amongst many things is a grief specialist. Aquatinted closely with suffering, she is a guide for us upon the tricky terrain of loss and gives incredibly helpful (and hopeful) language for that which is so hard to speak of.

How do you hold your own when everything around you feels like it's falling down? I chopped it up with my brother Mike McGlynn for the latest instalment in our conversations series. Mike is a husband, a father, pastor and a creative juggernaut.
He's got a voice and message that I think our generation need and I'm so happy to share this conversation with you!

Yes my friends! Okay, you're in for a treat with this one. I sat down with my friend Ruth Naomi Floyd who is an exceptional songwriter, Jazz composer and singer and the first African American woman to serve as Founding Director of a university jazz program in the United States. We cover a lot of ground in this chat from the power of beauty to the importance of sorrow and the work of Fredrick Douglass.
I hope you enjoy and once agai...
I had the honour of (virtually) sitting down with John Mark Mcmillan. Not only a songwriter and lyrical mastermind, but John Mark also seems to speak prophetically into our times, each time his new record drops, with poetic depth and honest care for his listeners. We cover a lot of terrain in this conversation and I can't wait to hear what you think!
