Honest Looks Good On You: A Conversation on Creativity, Racial Reconciliation and Hard Truths In Relationship w/ Craig Brown & Andrea Summer
Show Notes

Guess What? It's possible to have an honest conversation...and still keep a relationship.  It's true! A few weeks back an industry friend reached out and said, " I know these two incredible people making a film and I think you'd love to talk to them!" Turns out, she was right! Our new friends Craig and Andrea were set out to create a film that talks about racial reconciliation in a new light. This has been something that we have become increasingly aware of as a culture but truthfully...the way these two have created space for this dialogue is new, and fresh. Through it they have modeled what it could look like for others conversations like it to happen as well. I left this interview inspired as a creative, hopeful for our tables and culture. I know you will too! You can expect to hear:  

  • An important note to the closet creative and dreamer 
  • Balancing authenticity and triggers in our current culture
  • How to have  difficult conversation and maintain relationships 
  • The important role music has in story telling
  • How to be aware of our own biases 
  • How Mercy & Me was designed in a way that no one feels attacked but rather that everyone feels that they have the words they need to feel heard on all sides.  

The three of us instantly connected and that lead to a really fun, really authentic conversation that you will NOT want to miss!
