#267 - Embracing a Creative Life: Big Magic with Taylor Swilley

Ryan Durbin & Becca Otis Episode 267

Ryan and Becca return for another chapter of the podcast book club, diving into Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert. They’re joined by Taylor Swilley—voice actor by day, potter by night, and cat snuggler in between. Together, they explore key takeaways from the book, discuss thought-provoking concepts, and highlight areas that didn’t quite resonate.

Don't miss our next book recap on Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative by Austin Kleon, coming out on Saturday, November 9th.

A special thanks to Taylor for joining us and for recording the ads in today’s episode!
