What does it take to create stories that resonate with millions—and what can those stories teach us about ourselves?

Meg LeFauve, Academy Award-nominated screenwriter of Pixar’s Inside Out and Inside Out 2, has spent her career unlocking the magic of storytelling. But her insights go far beyond the screen. Meg is a master of exploring vulnerability, collaboration, and iteration—essential elements for both storytelling and creative mastery.

In this episode, we dive into the psychology of creativity, unpacking how anxiety and sensitivity can become superpowers, why vulnerability is the key to connecting with others, and the art of crafting characters (and a life) that feel alive.

Meg takes us behind the scenes of Pixar’s creative process, sharing how iconic films are brought to life through relentless collaboration and a commitment to emotional truth. Along the way, she offers practical strategies for navigating the ups and downs of the creative journey and staying energized in the face of challenges.

Whether you’re a creator, a storyteller, or simply curious about what it takes to bring bold ideas into the world, this conversation is a treasure trove of wisdom for living a deeply creative, connected life.
