This podcast brought tears to my eyes several times.
Emmy nominated poet, multi-platinum songwriter, and best-selling author, IN-Q, joins us on the Align Podcast; sharing words of wisdom in the most eloquent way imaginable - through the beauty of poetry.
IN-Q is a modest, trustworthy, and caring soul. He always knows the right words to say, and understands the beauty of life in its truest form. Vulnerable. In this episode we discuss the journey to feeling whole, finding trust in vulnerability, and how poetry heals the soul - featuring two beautifully read poems by the man himself.
There is plenty to love and learn from this episode. His poems really spoke to me in ways that I never thought they could, and I’m sure you will find just as much worth in his work.
