This conversation from spring 2023 is long-overdue and we are so excited to share with you all. Elle sits down with Stacey Carr, TV development executive and consultant. They cover a lot of ground and make many meaningful connections. Topics covered include:

  • providing access and professional development for under-represented persons
  • how to get into TV/film
  • deciding to leave the U.S.
  • how helping others eases burnout
  • impact of media on people's lives & sense of belonging
  • how to know when a chapter is done
  • calling
  • miracles
  • pursuing joy
  • incorporating healthy habits
  • dancing
  • morning pages (al la "Artist's Way" by Julie Cameron)
  • self-awareness
  • how being yourself helps others to be themselves
  • letting go of what others think of you
  • allowing multiple emotions to co-exist
  • emotional and disordered eating
  • being soft, kind, vulnerable and curious
  • reflecting on our behavior versus labeling good or bad
  • continuing/resuming what you enjoyed doing when you were young
  • joy is contagious
  • the gifts of being child-like
  • creativity is for everyone 

As this non-comprehensive list indicated, there was a lot of useful discourse. Thank you, Stacey for sharing your wisdom and experience with The LYHL Podcast!
