Season 3 episode 2 featuring Julia Billington.
We chat about acting of course, but also religion, experience as a student and they share their love of yoga, of community, their dog (who you might hear chatting with my cat in the background!) and all the ways they are contributing to the world as a wonderful creative artist. I was also (as I often am) very much fan girling - Julia is an incredible actor- whom you may have seen in recent Bell Shakespeare productions. SO thrilled to have them on the pod!
