After a health scare at 24, writer, photographer, and artist Tatiana Gallardo decided to spend a year facing all of her fears. So she left the country, quit her job to go freelance, and decided to chronicle all her courageous endeavors in a newsletter called BrazenFace. Host Jillian Anthony (freelancer writer and author of the Cruel Summer Book Club newsletter) asks Tatiana about her experience being a “coward in recovery,” and the two discuss digital nomad life, going alcohol-free, and what it means to live a fearless life.
