  • As a writer, Elizabeth Gilbert is notorious for placing her heart squarely on her sleeve. Her best-selling memoir, “Eat, Pray, Love,” was a sensation precisely because of her eloquent, open-hearted descriptions of fear, divorce and wanting everything life had to offer. When she spoke at TED back in 2009, she charmed the audience with her frank descriptions of what happened after the book became a runaway success and her lyrical ideas of the nature of creativity. Nearly ten years later, in this extraordinarily intimate conversation with Chris, she shares why openness, transparency and creativity are still central to her philosophy of life - even when faced with moments of desperation and personal tragedy.

    Thank you Elizabeth Gilbert. My mother is in her transition right now. And grief just shows up suddenly and grabs me and then it is over. And I move forward with more space opened up inside me. She is the one person I didn't think I could live without. I am surprised to find that I can and that I am stronger than I ever thought and it felt strange to me. Then you said, there was a freedom in knowing that there is now no one that you cannot live without. I didn't realize what I have discovered in the last two days is freedom. I am saving this podcast to continue to listen to as I go through my grief process. Thank you to both of you for going so deep and vulnerable.

    Creation is the antidote to despair
    Movement is the antidote to depression

    This interview is just beautiful, I listen to it all the time because Elisabeth's amazing vision of life helped me through my dad's passing. I would love love for my mom to hear it but she doesn't speak English, could you please help me with french subtitles or a french transcript?

    She’s fantastic, pity there were far too many ads during this interview, really interrupts the flow. Very greedy of the creators of this.
