Taking Time to Listen to Who You Are - with Spencer West

Today's episode features Spencer West's journey through disability to self-discovery. Spencer is a content creator, motivational speaker, advocate, and author. His newest book Breaking Free: Stop Following Expectations and Start Following Yourself teaches how to listen to your inner voice and stop accepting other people's expectations. Spencer and I muse over topics as far afield as personal agency, interdependence, and marveling at method actors.
