"If you try to please all, you please none."- Aesop

Ooooo baby does this ever ring true. Eric Lockley (Actor, The Jump) has always struggled with being the good moral boy he was raised to be. But sometimes saying yes to everyone, means saying no to yourself. Having known each other for 21 years there is a familiarity in this conversation but we also learn so many new things about each other. Performing as Michael Jackson in malls, trying to raise and amplify Black voices, and why we need to give in to our fear to overcome it.

Eric is incredibly inspiring and I knew that when we were in Great Expectations together at the ripe old age of 14. It was an honor to have him on this podcast. Enjoy!
