About this listen

What happens when the well runs dry—not because you’ve lost your creativity, but because you’ve been denied access to it?
In this intimate reflection, Joi Sun recalls a quiet season of her life spent at a dog park in Waynesville, North Carolina—running her border collies near the creek and sitting beside a man with no name, only a dog named Siddhartha. Homeless by choice, this man held a kind of wisdom that spoke to a deeper truth about access, reverence, and the sacredness of creativity.
This episode explores memory, withheld love, distorted access, and the companions who enter our lives as signposts. It ends with a message not about clinging or performance—but about presence. About remembering who you are by who you didn’t even know was reminding you.
