Season 3 begins with the talented and inspiring Nicole Belanger. We discuss the power of stories, the glorification of busy and the lack of diversity in our films, books and entertainment in general. Don’t be mean to your stories! Nicole basically tells us we’re all too hard on ourselves. Chris agrees, citing the stories featured on Radiolab and This American Life. Nicole tells us that she misses writing because lately she’s been updating her website instead of sharing. Check out the new nicole-belanger.com and add it to your reading list.

Chris digs Kelowna and Nicole really enjoyed time in Victor
