Finding the Throughline: Conversations about the Creative Process invites you into the minds of writers and other creatives as they open up about their process, their doubts, and what kinds of changes they’re thinking about making. The questions are mildly invasive, honestly, and the answers are unvarnished…and so refreshing!
Whether your creative work is writing, painting, making music, parenting, or simply living, Finding the Throughline can help you get—and stay—inspired. Invigorated, even.

[Ann Tashi Slater, inner stuff]: How acknowledging the pain of NOT writing can help you commit to your creative work Ep 1225
Welcome to part two of my interview with Ann Tashi Slater, author of the new book, “Traveling in Bardo: The Art of Living in an Impermanent World.” Bardo is a Buddhist concept that describes a transitional state, such as between death and rebirth, but also about being alive and in between being born and dying. In Traveling in Bardo, Anne shares how we can apply Buddhist teachings on acceptance, interdependence, and impermanence to our ever-changing lives.In today's episode, I'm asking Anne about the inner stuff that goes into writing, including:- The Spanish movie she’s been obsessed with since she was a kid and that inspired a recent essay for Narrative Magazine- How writing and reading are so different from talking and listening, even though they’re both conversations between two people- How she, an extremely private person, gradually acclimated to sharing and promoting her work, and how this process reminds her of her dog- How she quiets the inner critic- Why she never meets anyone for lunch- The ways her work practices have–and mostly, have not–changed since her kids have left the nest and her schedule is her own- The things that motivated her to build the habit of writing everydayConnect with Ann @AnnTashiSlater on Instagram, Facebook, Blue Sky, and LinkedIn, or at anntoshislater.com.For full show notes with links to everything we discuss, plus bonus photos!, visit katehanley.substack.com.Thank you for listening!And thanks to this week’s sponsor, Air Doctor Pro.
