Listen "Lindsey Lerner: A Year of Field Notes from the Work and the Wild"
Episode Synopsis
In this conversation, I chat with writer, photographer, and community builder Lindsey Lerner to explore the launch of her year-long project Field Notes from the Work and the Wild. Lindsey shares how her background in anthropology, photography, and storytelling informs her work documenting the often-overlooked process behind our creativity.
We chat about :
The origins of Field Notes and her drive to celebrate everyday work, not just the big wins
Lessons from a decade of working in the music industry
Art in business
What it means to find your creative flow, and
The role of community in shaping meaningful work
Lindsey even opens up about the realities of pursuing creative projects alongside practical survival work, launching a GoFundMe to support her field year, and her hopes for bringing people together across geographies and disciplines.
