What is LIMBO?
LIMBO podcast is an intersectional collection of conversations celebrating being in between - frank, witty, and soulful perspectives on life's big and small changes as they're happening. An optimistic, but honest, pause and reflection while the end is still unwritten. Going beyond the before and after and into the DURING.
We will talk about purpose, creativity, discovery, love, family, money, abundance, spirituality - and how our relationships to it all are evolving. Stories will be serious, not serious, messy, beautiful, silly, real. Success or a completed hero's journey is not a prerequisite.
