#130 Thanking The Comma for What Came Next with Peter Moore

In this episode, we talk to Peter Moore. He describes himself as an enthusiastic adventurer with a sense of humor. Peter lives in the United States. Peter tells us about sitting on a comma after being laid off from an important job role. Identifying so much of his career with his affiliations and access, Peter felt cut off from not only his work, but his colleagues and work friends and more. While sitting on the comma, he experimented with new directions until the comma brought him the inspiration he craved. Tune in to hear what Peter means when he says “it’s a comma, not a cliff”. You can find Peter on:Articles:  https://coloradosun.com/author/peter-moore/ Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/TheRoad2ElsewhereLinkedin:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/peter-moore-r2e/Substack:  petermoore.substack.com; https://oldster.substack.com/t/peter-moore-illustrated-essays  Instagram:  @road2elsewherePeter would like to acknowledge the following individuals, organizations and/or causes that matter to him and invite you to consider supporting them and/or sharing their messages:I want to acknowledge everyone who’s on the comma, there is light after the darkRoz Chast  https://www.rozchast.com  Roz Chast is known for turning everyday anxieties into sharply funny, unmistakably personal cartoons.
