Throughout time, great thinkers have recognized the importance of the thoughts we have. And yet, for many of us, our thoughts don't strengthen or empower us. We see what we don't have instead of what we do. We think things that hold us back and dampen our spirit. It takes conscious, consistent, and creative effort to make a life worth living.
Ever wondered how to live a more intentional life? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer sits down with poet and novelist Quan Barry to unpack the power of intentionality in both life and art. Quan shares her thoughts on how consciously feeding our actions and thoughts can lead to a more fulfilling existence. They dive into the nuances of living deliberately, distinguishing between intention and ambition, and the significance of gratitude in personal growth.

She also discusses the challenges of staying open to new experiences and the importance of setting and keeping intentions for the path you're on. The conversation touches on deep listening, trusting your own voice while being open to feedback, and not being afraid to make mistakes.
This episode offers a refreshing look at how embracing uncertainty and practicing empathy can enrich our lives. Whether you're looking to cultivate more mindfulness or simply curious about the creative process, this episode is packed with valuable insights that will resonate with anyone on a journey of self-improvement.
