Shout out to Zubin Hensler, who does all the mixing and original music for the show.

Meredith is a writer, artist and activist. She also gets credit for coming up with the name Climbing Sideways! This interview was such a joy. We talk about building a career in copywriting, but also recovering from burnout, lifelong learning, and meeting celebrities in Manhattan salons.

Also, I go on a tangent about air in sandwiches, and if you haven’t seen the viral moment I reference, here’s a link to the reel! The Secret to a Perfect Sandwich is Air
