Education
“We really can do good in the world by listening to and learning from others”I caught up with Denver-based poet, educator and all-round creative powerhouse, Rachel Noall, for this episode. What an awesome conversation!We touched on all things creativity, not allowing ourselves to be held back by fear, getting out of our comfort zones and turning our creative ideas into an income. But we also went deep on what it means to be truly happy and live a life defined by your own rules and not the rules of others – something that Rachel has had to learn through experience and trial-and-error.What’s also really obvious with Rachel is just how much she values connection with others, and it was so inspiring to hear of the different ways in which she's created a community, either through social media or through her magazine; From Whispers to Roars. In creating this community, Rachel ensures different people’s voices are heard, and she's not afraid to use her influence to give people a platform, the same people who could potentially struggle to get their foot through the door otherwise.It was an honest and refreshing conversation with someone, ultimately, who isn’t afraid to live a little differently and be her true self.
