Ep 54: A Changing Relationship with Hope, The Role of Music, and Becoming a Dad with Eric Fusilier
We put our producer, Eric Fusilier, on the mic for this episode! Get a glimpse into Eric’s story which involves how his relationship with hope has changed over the years, how music is important in putting words to deep parts of our experiences, and how becoming a dad has formed him.
Jon and Madi get to enjoy rich conversation with Eric in the studio regularly, and we trust you’ll get to experience the richness in this episode alongside us!
