ABOUT THIS EPISODE
If you’ve ever wondered why your life feels like it’s in a weird in-between season—or why your creativity disappears exactly when you need it—this episode is going to hit home. Poet and author James Pearson joins us to break down the emotional “seasons” we all move through: the falls where everything you relied on stops working, the winters that strip you down to the essentials, and the infamous “mud season” where you’re not stuck… you’re just slogging your way toward the next version of yourself.
We talk burnout, identity shifts, creative rebirth, and why some of the most important transformations happen quietly, slowly, and usually at the worst possible time. James shares the breakdowns, breakthroughs, and the moments that forced him to stop performing who he thought he should be—and start listening to who he actually is.
Welcome to Deep, Funny, Dirty—
where the conversation gets real, the humor sneaks in,
and you might just learn something about yourself along the way.
