E121 - Alex Lewis | Feels Like Home

What You Don't Hear

Alex Lewis (@lewisalex10) is a poet and writer through his own popular newsletter “Feels Like Home” and Columbus Underground, as well as his projects like Car Window Poetry.

If you’re looking for a laid back conversation about why making your art for authentic reasons is enough to do them, this is the one for you! Alex is great as he shares his story of passion for writing at a young age, and how he’s translated that into his main creative avenue as an adult, and he shares a lot on how he’s maintained that passion through lots of ups and downs, and tempts of “internet fame” to take things in a different direction. We explore the balance between personal fulfillment and creating for others, navigating the pressures of sharing creative work, and the importance of staying true to your own path. Alex also shares a lot of great stuff on taking your time with your art, embracing life's ups and downs, and finding meaning in unexpected moments.
