“When you are at a place of your lowest point, that is when you have the most choices available to you, that is where you can look around and see, because there is no other way to go but up.”

In this episode we speak with Kurt Douglas. We discuss what drew him to the Limón technique and the principles behind it, reframing moments of failure, finding a community that serves you, leading by example as a teacher, and more.
