Friction is Feedback with Madeleine Gottlieb

from Masterpiece · host Jessica Yolanda Kaye

Last year Madeleine Gottlieb spent 53 days in the South Australian desert directing a television series, working 18-hour days in intense conditions — an experience she describes as physically, emotionally and mentally taxing, and completely life-changing.In this conversation we talk about the role friction plays in creative expression, what happens when the plan falls apart (like the day a brown snake appeared on set), and why understanding the feeling underneath what you’re trying to create might be the most important part of the process.We also explore what balance means to us, why curiosity might be the sexiest quality in a human, and when being yourself stops feeling like rebellion and starts to feel like being.--Sign up to my newsletter here for 'things I learnt' from Mads.Learn more about Mads here.Order your One Word Journal here.Email me on [email protected] me on IG here.Thank you for listening :)JYK 🤍
