Author Alina Sayre joins us at the Story Works Round Table to talk about refilling the creative well. Sooner or later we all hit that crossroads, whether you’re transitioning your life or transitioning between projects, it’s time to recharge. Alina has been through this process – and delivered a TEDx talk about it. We learn from Alina’s experience, unpack the process, and delve into authenticity, passion, and taking risks…not just in writing, but in life!
Part 2 of 2.

Has Alina refilled her creative well, or recharged her creative batteries? What would she advise those of us who need to find that balance in our lives? How do we write out of our own experiences? And how do we go out and get more of those experiences?
