This week's episode will be comforting and nourishing. I spoke with Marlee Grace for the second time on LET IT OUT. She’s a dancer, radio show host, and writer. She's also the author of the books How to Not Always Be Working, which we spoke more about the last time, and the new book GETTING TO CENTER. She’s genuinely one of my favorite thinkers and people, and I loved both of our episodes together. This time we discuss crushes and big feelings, creativity and routines, catastrophic thinking, newness and moving, a lot about codependency, Instagram addiction, productivity, friendship, and of course, getting to center.   Show notes:- Connect with Marlee on the Web | Instagram- Friendship Village- Marlee's new book Getting to Center (+ the audiobook version)- 9 part podcast series about Dolly Parton- Get 20% off any Let It Out Kit with code "fall20" If you liked this episode try out:- Episode 248 with Marlee new to *let it out* --> start with these linkskatie's site: https://katiedalebout.com/our start here guide: https://letitouttt.com/general/start-here/++ LET IT OUT letter katie's bookLET IT OUT kits  Sponsors:I’ve been loving HelloFresh, America’s #1 meal kit.

This week I’m airing a recent interview where I was a guest on the new podcast Back To You with Emily Schultz. Emily and I met years ago at my book launch in Columbus and kept in touch ever since. In this episode we have a candid catch up about change during a year of uncertainty and how the pandemic has impacted us. We get into how the last several months have been, podcasting, creativity, and change. Emily is an amazing host and I loved seeing where she took the conversation. She is an alum of our podcast kit and just launched her show Back to You this week.

This summer we decided to do our first let it out book club, and my friend Karolina told me she had the perfect book for us. We chose the new novel The House of Deep Water by today's guest Jeni McFarland. It's a unique story with deeply developed characters about family, trauma, and change, and it takes place in my home state of Michigan. This conversation covers trauma, therapy, mental health, Jeni's writing rituals, and how’s she taking care of herself in the pandemic. I loved speaking with Jeni. It’s a shorter conversation so I’m going to get back into the habit of something I used to do years ago which is sharing some of my "favorites."Show notes:- The House of Deep Water (Book)- Connect with Jeni on Instagram | The Web- Share your suggestions for our next book on the @letitouttt Instagram!- Christine's YouTube channel, Let It Out episode, & Instagram- Christine's ceramics shop- Plants for the People: A Modern Guide to Plant Medicine by Erin Lovell Verinder (Book)- Nettle & alfalfa infusions- Let It Out Episode with Erin Lovell Verinder- Let It Out Episode with Leah Clancy- Crushing by Julia Jacklin (Album) and the song "Good Guy"- Fetch the Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple (Album)- Saint Cloud by Waxahatchee (Album) and the song "Lilacs"- Laura Marling (Musician)- Big Thief (Band)- Katie's Spotify- Four Sigmatic Beauty Shot- Goli apple cider vinegar gummies- Lakewood by Megan Giddings (Book)- Postmodern Jukebox (Band)- Podcast Kit (also check out Marketing & Monetizing and Art of the Interview)- Soothe & Solve Kits- Write Kit- Use the code "podcastlistener" for 20% off all Let it Out Kits If you liked this episode try out:Episode 224 with Kayleen Schaefer on Female Friendship, A Career as a Writer, Creativity and More  Sponsors:This episode was supported by Four Sigmatic, a wellness company that is well known for its delicious mushroom coffee.

Welcome back to a new season of the podcast! This week I spoke with my friend Shanthony Exum who is a true life artist. She's one of the funniest people I know and talented at so many things. She is a writer, musician, and comedian who is hilarious, wise, and so supportive and kind, which you’ll hear in the funny story of how we met in Las Vegas. We talk about: moving and change,  being a performer during Covid, what happens after a big success, body image, DIY culture, defying traditional institutions, Intersectionality, improv, and what she's loving lately. Show notes:- Katie's live journaling workshop on September 3rd, 2020- Journaling 101 kit- The Podcast Starter Kit- Connect with Shanthony on Instagram | Twitter | YouTube- Shanthony's EP How It Is- Shanthony's NPR song- Thunder Thighs music video- Belly Bounce video- The Every Body Project- Bush for the Push video- Well, That Escalated Quickly: Memoirs and Mistakes of an Accidental Activist by Franchesca Ramsey (Book)- Shanthony's "How to properly wear a mask" graphic- Octavia Butler- My Crynicles YouTube series If you liked this episode try out:- Episode 155 with Andrée Vermeulen on Creativity, Intuitive Eating, Relationships, & More Sponsors:This episode was supported by Four Sigmatic, a wellness company that is well known for its delicious mushroom coffee.

I'm speaking to my friend Leah Clancy. Leah and I met in the most kismet circumstance and developed a bond around several things, including writing and creativity, which we focus on in this episode. Leah is a poet and writer who holds both a bachelor's from NYU and an MFA in writing from CAL Arts. We talk about process, habits, and routines around writing and beyond. We drank wine and giggled as we answered listener questions on writing.
