Freedom, Curiosity and Sheepskins - A Mother-Son Chat, with Rook Wild

What if the key to freedom isn’t doing more—but staying curious?

In this special episode, I’m joined by my oldest son, Rook Wild, (24) for one of our favorite morning rituals: a wide-ranging, soul-nourishing coffee chat. As Rook prepares to head off on new adventures, we sit down to talk about the dance between discipline and freedom, the joy of staying curious, and the surprising lessons we’ve learned from nature, tradition—and even sheepskins.

You’ll hear stories of Rook’s recent journey processing rare Navajo Churro sheepskins (yes, they’re as magnificent as they sound), our thoughts on sustainability, responsible living, and whether or not we think routines can actually create more space for spontaneity and creativity.

Whether you’re craving a real life style conversation, want to hear the kind of stuff we talk about together over coffee or just need a reminder that life doesn’t have to be perfectly planned to be beautiful—this episode is for you.

💡 3 Takeaways You’ll Love:

1. Curiosity is a way of life. Staying open—even when things are uncertain—leads to the richest growth and unexpected joy.
2. Sustainability can be soulful. Natural materials, intentional living, and honoring old ways can reconnect us to what really matters.
3. Freedom and discipline are dance partners. Routines don’t have to feel rigid—they can actually help us feel more creative, grounded, and alive.
