episode notes
Mia is a professional violinist. She is played in her symphony. She has performed in improv groups. She is played as a form of personal exploration. But now she's working on a big conceptual project that may have nothing to do with music. Instead, she wants to create work rooted in connection. The only problem? She doesn't know what she wants to create. In this episode of How To!, Carvel Wallace welcomes storyteller extraordinaire Michaela Leslie to her rules. Michaela talks to Mia about the process of realizing her potentially overwhelming ideas. Check out Michaela's work with her Spiritual Technologies Project, the group mentioned in the episode.
