The body of work that you've built and offered publicly over a period of years now, it's vast. And then also in a way it defies, it defies description. I wonder from the outside looking in it almost feels like it gave you the freedom to just step into it and do it the way that just felt right to you rather than feeling constrained by what you thought was the appropriate form stepping into it. "I'm not an academic poet. Like it's not the type of like literary poetry type"
Why is it that, so often, we need to be brought to our knees in order to wake up to, and reclaim, what really matters? And, does that have to be so? These are just a few of the questions we dive into with my guest today, Diego Perez, best known for his virtual moniker, Yung Pueblo, which is both a reminder to him to stay grounded in a younger, growth mindset, and also a contained to frame this current season of work as a project that doesn’t constrain his own personal and professional growth. Diego’s new book, Clarity & Connection, shares many of his recent insights about life, meaning, love, work, self-awareness, and of course, clarity and connection.
