The Impact Of Epilepsy On My Creative Journey

This was a tough episode to do. After years of keeping silent about what it’s like living with epilepsy, I finally feel brave enough to talk about it.

There’s so much to be said and this podcast episode doesn’t even scratch the surface.

But I thought a nice way in would be to talk about how getting diagnosed with epilepsy as an adult changed the trajectory of my creative journey.

As John Lennon sang, “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”
