This Morning Walk

Libby is joined by David Pearl, Founder of Street Wisdom, a creative walking practice that encourages groups of people to go on guided walking workshops (ie - Walkshops) encouraging them to turn ordinary streets into extraordinary experiences. Having spent years exploring how our urban environment can deliver fresh insight, in 2013 David set up the first Street Wisdom event in Covent Garden, London. Since then, the movement has grown to over 87 countries and counting, led by volunteers sharing the power of Street Wisdom free of charge through communities across the globe.  For more on Street Wisdom visit: https://www.streetwisdom.org Keep in touch:  https://www.thismorningwalk.com/ Instagram: @thismorningwalk Alex Instagram: @alex_elle  Libby Instagram: @parkhere     Blind Nil Instagram: @blindnilaudio Please direct business inquiries to: [email protected] Music Credits:  Valante / Ramo / courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Malik Martin, better known as Malik Tha Martian, has carved a niche for himself in the outdoor industry as a photographer and filmmaker. Born in Memphis, Tennessee, and now living in Denver, Martin filmed and appeared in the project Black Ice, a documentary about a group of Memphis rock climbers who learn to ice-climb in Montana. He joins Libby to ‘Walk & Talk’ about this journey, and how he uses the outdoors to find inspiration for his work.  Links to Malik’s work: Malik’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/malikthamartian/ New Talkshow “Talk To Me”: https://www.youtube.com/@MalikTheMartian Black Ice Film: https://jacksonhousefilms.com/project/black-ice-reel-rock/ Keep in touch:  https://www.thismorningwalk.com/ Instagram: @thismorningwalk Alex Instagram: @alex_elle  Libby Instagram: @parkhere     Blind Nil Instagram: @blindnilaudio Please direct business inquiries to: [email protected] Music Credits:  Valante / Ramo / courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Artist Windy Chien joins Libby for a ‘Walk & Talk’ to discuss quitting her job at Apple in her 40s to pursue a ‘third career’ as an artist. She’s best known for her 2016 work The Year of Knots, in which she learned a new knot every day for a year, and now turns that knowledge into works of art that can fit in the palm of a child's hand to room-sized installations that are sought after by private collectors. This conversation is a reminder that we can start over at any age, be it big or small, to pursue the things that make us feel more connected to ourselves and others. Enjoy this ‘Walk & Talk’, and let us know what you think by leaving a review over on Apple Podcasts!
