#116 On Living Artfully, Embracing the Unknown and Saying Yes to Life with Debra Berger

Anya Kaats

May 17, 2022

Debra has lived an incredibly full and inspiring life with no plan of stopping anytime soon. From moving to Europe, dropping out of school, marrying an Italian prince and hitchhiking across Africa all by the time she was sixteen, Debra has always embraced the unknown and said “yes” to all of what life has thrown at her. We speak about her love of integrating art and architecture, and the beauty of bringing something of ourselves to new experiences as opposed to requiring an experience to give something to us. We touch on the importance of embracing our individual uniqueness, the beauty of being a citizen within a community, and why elderhood is underrated.

Songs featured: “Confidently Lost” by Sabrina Claudio and “Against the Wind” by Victory
