Brianna Wiest

Questlove welcomes bestselling author Brianna Wiest ( The Mountain Is You , 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think ) for a vulnerable, funny, and wide‑ranging conversation about self‑sabotage, creativity, and learning to "just show up." Brianna explains how she writes from her center, why nature and long drives unlock her best ideas, and how she separates the heart's "what" from the mind's "how." Questlove shares how her work helped him see himself (and his obstacles) differently. Along the way, Brianna opens up about her childhood, her taste in music, and even making wedding cakes. This episode is a warm, insightful exploration of growth, bravery, and redefining success in the second act of life.
