In this episode of The Antidote, Amy and Grace connect with comedian, actress, and publishing maven Phoebe Robinson about expanding your world, gratitude journals, and wow moments.
Amy and Grace share their bummer news of the week: A Chick-Fil-A store in North Carolina is trying to get people to volunteer for food, and a couple in San Francisco is fighting a parking ticket they got very unexpectedly. They also share their antidotes: making new friends, and spontaneity.
This week’s Creative Tap-In:
“Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.” – Robert Bresson
