Hi Mike! Enjoyed meeting you at Mimouna on Sunday night. We sat next to each other during the ceremony and I’d recommended the podcast “Suave.” I listened to your most recent podcast with MaryGold and found it really relatable and inspiring. I checked out her IG page. Do you know if she has another site with her artwork? Made me want to carve out more creative time. Really enjoyed your interview and conversational style too. Will keep listening! To letting go, authenticity, beauty, justice and balance. ~ Sarah (@sarah_sills)
