For this first episode of 2019, we’re so happy to be bringing you the author of Kate’s favorite book she read all of last year! Andrienne Maree Brown is the author of Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds, as well as the upcoming book, Pleasure Activism: The Politics of Feeling Good, and after some delays and scheduling mishaps, she was well worth the wait. Adrienne is a writer, a sci-fi Octavia Butler Scholar, an organizational healer and a pleasure activist. She’s also a facilitator, a life, love, relationship and work coach, a network weaver, speaker, singer and doula. In this episode, Adrienne talks about her popular book and why it resonates so much with people, her experiences as a doula, time expansion and a whole lot more. Adrienne has tapped into a truth that has lived in all of our bodies and all of nature for so long, and how she articulate this is so fascinating. It was our honor to start this new year of podcasts by interviewing Adrienne Maree Brown. Do you want 2019 to be a year of tremendous growth, support, and miracles for you and your business?
