In this episode, we're thrilled to sit down with Pierce Freelon, a Grammy-nominated artist whose work is as impactful as it is inspired. With Pierce, we dive into the profound legacy of his father, Phil Freelon, an architect whose brilliance has left an indelible mark on the world and deeply influenced Pierce's life and art.
Pierce takes us through the journey behind his Grammy-nominated albums, highlighting the creative synergy with his mother, Nnenna Freelon. This narrative of legacy and love underpins our conversation, as we explore the vital tradition of honoring our ancestors—a practice rooted in resistance, love, and the foundation of the legacies we aim to build.
Throughout our discussion, Pierce shares the synchronicities that have lit his path since his father's passing, revealing an aligned journey of mindfulness and purpose. He stresses the importance of "planting seeds"—moments and mentors that have guided him to stay present and embrace life’s challenges head-on. This concept of seed-planting resonates as Pierce describes how these influences have nurtured his growth, encouraging us all to acknowledge our roots and the lessons they offer.
Join us for a conversation that challenges conventional norms, celebrates the act of remembering our ancestors, and offers insights into living a life aligned with their dreams, filled with intention and impact.
