Of the 23 episodes I produced for the Type. Tune. Tint. video and podcast in 2024, I came up with four that really amazed me because of the amazing people behind them. Any time you need a little inspiration, perhaps a reminder that your life isn’t as crappy as you think, watch/listen to this episode to see how Zach redefined his life after an unsuccessful suicide attempt; how Allie dove into the world of wasps and created more than 800 illustrations of individual species; how Mary Beth survived a life of near-fatal addiction and abuse to become a federal administrative court judge; how Risa deals, every single day, with a tumor at the base of her brain that affects her energy, her joints but didn’t stop her from an 18-hundred mile bike trek.

It’s been a privilege meeting these and other guests on Type. Tune. Tint. I hope you’ll take a look at the complete collection of videos and subscribe.
