LET IT OUT5 Syys 2018

235 | song writing, creativity, breakups, etc. with actor & singer Emily Kinney (The Walking Dead, Spring Awakening, Masters of Sex)

Unfortunately I didn't watch The Walking Dead and wasn't familiar with today's guest's music career before her team reached out about this interview--I'm now a fan. She was such a delightful, down-to-earth person with so much self-awareness creative spark. We talked about her experience moving away from her small town in the midwest to pursue her dream of acting and singing. We got into the on again, off again relationship that inspired her newest album Oh, Jonathan that just came out this month. Beyond her story and career we talked about her experience with therapy, body image, family, romantic relationships and breakups as well as her song writing and creative process. She gives some of the best creativity advice I've ever gotten on the podcast. She talks about the importance of boredom in her creativity and how her focus now is on being present and grateful for exactly where she is.

“I have to get bored first and then I get to the thoughts that need to be said.”

“I think it’s one of the most… the favorite movies and songs are about love and I do that that’s one of the best parts of being human.”
