Life, Death, Creative Living, and Queerness

Living a life guided and powered by creativity and “Spirit” is a liberating journey, not for the faint of heart. It leads us into freedom and liberation, but not before inviting us to reconcile with some of our most significant attachments and greatest fears. Today, we are joined by heARTist, creator, activist, poet, author, and shaman, Keone Wales, in a dynamic conversation around inspiration, death, queerness, creativity and more. You might call this a unique conversation in that it unfolds intuitively, and no topic was off limits. Enjoy!  Today’s Guest: Keone Wales Today’s Host: Reno Johnston Support the Show – viewer and listener support helps us to continue making episodes – CONNECT WITH US – – LEARN WITH US –
