You may know today's guest actor, Joshua Jackson, from Dawson's Creek or The Mighty Ducks, or from his later shows, including Fringe, The Affair, Little Fires Everywhere, and most recently, Dr. Death, which earned him a People’s Choice award nomination. In this conversation (recorded over Zoom in the midst of the holidays), he  candidly shares lessons on navigating young fame, love and feeling worthy of it, what he’s learning as a new parent,  and how the vulnerable messy moments are where we grow. We talk about what his Broadway debut role in Children of a Lesser God taught him about listening and connection and how that has influenced his anti-racism work. He also tells me about his new production company, Liquid Media Group, which aims to create an easier path for independent filmmakers to share their content while allowing them ownership. He has enormous depth in his life experiences and I loved talking to him even more than I expected.Show Notes:- Find Joshua on Instagram | Twitter- I'm @katiedalebout  -

Back on the podcast this week is Jules Bakshi, a professional dancer, choreographer, and founder and CEO of GOOD MOVE, a dance and mindful fitness studio for all genders, races, and sizes located in Brooklyn. Jules was in LA, so we caught up for hours at my kitchen table and reflected on the growth, change, and lessons she’s learned this year. It’s a fitting last episode of 2021 because Jules' first conversation, recorded at her kitchen table, was the last episode I recorded in Brooklyn on New Years' Eve 2019, the day before I left. In this new episode, Jules talks about being led by what is working rather than what is not, non-attachment, softening to become both more sturdy and more expansive, and what she's excited about for this coming year. Show notes:- Check out GOOD MOVE on the Web | Instagram- All of the Let It Out Kits, including Resolutions Reframe, are 22% off with the code "twentytwo"- Subscribe to our newsletter to get show notes sent straight to your inbox- Follow @letitouttt on Instagram- Photo

This week I spoke with my friend and mentor Christy Harrison. Christy is a registered dietitian, certified eating disorders specialist, journalist, and host of the weekly podcast Food Psych. Her first book, Anti-Diet, came out last year and she's currently finishing her next book, Rethinking Wellness, which will be out in 2023. In this second half of our conversation, we focus on emotional eating and shame in eating habits (like eating alone or standing up). We talk about how the pandemic impacts body image as well as body image in pregnancy and postpartum. We also get into the experience of anorexia nostalgia and much more.Last week, in part one, we covered the principles and pitfalls of intuitive eating, pregnancy and IVF, writing, productivity, the overwhelming life season Christy is in and how she's taking care of herself throughout it all. We discussed how she's using meditation as a tool to get used to sitting in discomfort and more. Show notes:- Find Christy on the Web | Instagram | Podcast- Christy's

This week I spoke with Grace Park and Jesse Dalton, two members of the Austin-based band The Deer. If you listened to my recent episode with Buck Meek (of Big Thief), he recommended his fellow Texan musicians The Deer to be featured on the podcast, and I'm so glad he did. Their songs are spacious, with airy vocals and gentle percussion, and it’s a sound that compels comparisons to Fleetwood Mac, Neko Case or Mazzy Star. In this conversation, Jesse and Grace tell me about the beginning of the band, being back on the road after quarantine, their new album, and their process. We talk about trial and error, acceptance, friendship, grief, and much more. Show notes:- Check out The Deer on the Web | Bandcamp | Instagram- All of our Kits, including Katie's holiday workshops, are 22% off with the code "cosmic"- Check out Katie's one-on-one Creative Clinic- You can book a free consultation with Katie here, and if you don't see a time that works for you please email her at katie@letitouttt.com- Subscribe to our newslett

This one isn’t from that deep into the archive,  it was one of my favorites of the year. You’ll hear more about it in the original intro but we split it into two parts and you’re about to hear part one of my two part conversation with chef and writer Julia Turshen. I thought would be timely for this week which is the start of the holiday season because. It’s a week where a lot of us will be gathering and there’s a lot of talk about food and eating and this episode gets into that. Julia has coauthored numerous cookbooks and has written for TheNew York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, Vogue, Bon Appétit, Food & Wine, Saveur, and more.  The New York Times has described her “at the forefront of the new generation of authentic, approachable authors.” Julia not only loves cooking and writing about food, she also loves talking about it and hosts her own podcast, Keep Calm and Cook On. She’s genuine, talented, and kind. I loved this conversation with her that spanned a wide range of topics, in

This is a rerun of a 2019 episode from the archives with author and illustrator Mari Andrew. She is a present observer of her world and has the impressive talent to take her keen observations and translate them into relatable art. Fittingly enough, we ran into each other in the East Village, the neighborhood we both lived at the time, and soon she came over to record. In this conversation, we cover “rejection as protection”, creative routines, money in NYC, feeling raw after breakups, transitions and how they make us fertile for growth, her specific practice of gratitude, and her useful body image advice. Show notes:- Find Mari on all platforms: https://linktr.ee/bymariandrew- Original episode show notes page- Check out Katie's one-on-one Creative Clinic- You can book a free consultation with Katie here, and if you don't see a time that works for you please email her at katie@letitouttt.com- Listen to Episode 337 to learn more about working one-on-one with Katie- Subscribe to our newsletter to get show notes

This week I spoke with astrologer and cosmic consultant Madi Murphy, who combines her spiritual teachings with practical, actionable steps--and so much humor. This is Madi’s second time on the show. We first connected in 2017, when she owned a coffee shop in Brooklyn, and I happened to be interviewed by a reporter doing a story on her shop. Eventually I met Madi and we ended up doing the first ever live podcast recording in her space.Since then she’s made a major career and life pivot and, in this season finale episode, we unpack all she’s learned in a light, fun conversation. We talk about how her Saturn return led to her call off her wedding and start her new business (the Cosmic Rx), how we can use astrology to connect with each other, our collective connection to the moon, and much more. Show Notes:- Find Cosmic Rx on the Web | Instagram | Podcast- All of our Kits, including Katie's holiday workshops, are 22% off with the code "cosmic"- Check out Katie's one-on-one Creative Clinic- You can book a free con

This week I spoke to singer-songwriter Dana Williams about her career in music, how studying poetry at Sarah Lawrence informed her songwriting, and her new holiday album. Raised on singers like Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, she brings a jazzy nonchalance to her delivery while drawing big emotion from the subtlest vocal movement. Dana's music was featured in the Oscar-winning film Whiplash and she has collaborated with artists like Freddie Gibbs, Boogie, and Rejjie Snow. We covered her habits and routines, navigating grief and change, prioritizing community, what she's been learning lately, how gentleness helps her creatively, what she's wanting to prioritize, how she learns through creative collaboration, and more. Show Notes: - Find Dana on the Web | Instagram- the WRITE kit (50% off through the end of next week with code "November")- Check out Katie's one-on-one Creative Clinic- You can book a free consultation with Katie here, and if you don't see a time that works for you please email her at katie@l

This week, I share my conversation with Victoria Jane about Human Design, a system of personality mapping that I have found useful. After finding herself burnt out working in Silicon Valley, Victoria discovered her Human Design, which eventually led her to a career in helping others use it. We talk about ease vs. challenge, how Human Design relates to other personality charting systems like Enneagram and astrology, alignment, trusting rest and creation cycles, decision making, and more. If this is your first time hearing about Human Design, feel free to start by looking up your own chart. Also, if you go back to my archive, there are several episodes with other human design readers I've had on the show (linked below) that you can look into to learn more about the basics of Human Design and simply hear other perspectives.

Dr. Patti Kim is a naturopathic doctor and acupuncturist in Los Angeles. She’s also my close friend, one of my favorite people to be around. She returns to the podcast for part 2 of our conversation. We talk about “secret single behaviors”, wellness vs. enjoying your life, connection, simple quick eating, how loneliness impacts physical health, friendship, cocooning, and navigating change while staying present with what is in front of us.  Show notes: - Find Dr. Patti on the Web | Instagram- the WRITE kit (now 50% off with code "october")- Check out Katie's one-on-one Creative Clinic- You can book a free consultation with Katie here, and if you don't see a time that works for you please email her at katie@letitouttt.com- Subscribe to our newsletter to get show notes sent straight to your inbox- Follow @letitouttt on Instagram  Sponsors:Ana Luisa: your go-to for chic, carbon-neutral, contemporary jewelry at an affordable price.

This week’s conversation is with Kerrilynn Pamer, co-founder of the wellness company CAP Beauty. We recorded this at her kitchen table overlooking the mountains drinking espresso.
