Relentlessly Human Tour: Info Sheet

When everything is awful, the best we can do is love each other. 

When it’s happening: Nov. 17, 2021-Nov. 17, 2022

What it is: Podcast, YouTube Series, Blog, possibly a book with photos, and eventually a movement

History & Inspiration: This began in conversation with Matt Crouch on the Big Island of Hawaii, and out of a desire to reconnect in person with the people we’ve missed because of the pandemic and the way Life has scattered us. 

We’ve been locked down, separated, disconnected, and often scared and lonely. We lost deep important connections with friends and family--the connections at the root of our humanity. 

As I made a list of who I wanted to see and hug, I realized most of my friends are artists. It struck me that this tour and its public-facing components could be a fitting way to honor the art, artists, and creativity that helped us all through the pandemic. (And will probably continue to help us through the next however many years we will be dealing with this disease.)

This tour’s public-facing components are a podcast, video series (YouTube and IGTV), and written blog, with the ultimate goal of creating a movement of radical acceptance, love, and kindness towards our fellow humans.

 

How you can support: When possible, I am traveling in my 2008 Toyota RAV4 that has almost 200,000 miles on it already and sleeping on friends’ couches. I travel with my dog, Oakley.

We are in the midst of a global shattering, and improv director/teacher/actor David Razowsky is here to help us through it. 

You may recall a few episodes ago when I was talking with Kim Farris-Luke about the global grieving process that I mentioned feeling the feelings we're feeling the moment we feel the feelings. That was channeled directly from David. 

From his time on stage at The Second City in Chicago with the likes of Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert to his time as artistic director of The Second City Hollywood, David has developed an improv style of elegant simplicity, where the only thing you need is the person on stage with you. 

In this week's podcast, we talk about getting comfortable with the unknown, how much of the big picture we (as mission-driven leaders) are actually responsible for, and how to reconnect with the things that make us who we are (among many other helpful topics). We also dive into personal growth and acceptance, the difference between having an emotion and being the emotion, and how to ground yourself when you feel un-tethered. 

David offers rich insight into how to BE right now in the middle of a pandemic, which will help you become the leader that your team and your business needs.
