Dr Lisa Cooper - The Flowers
Dr Lisa Cooper is a florist, artist, doctor of philosophy, and author of the book, The Flowers - which is what our episode is about. We talk about ballet, flowers, process, violence, and grace. I do mention in the episode about how we met, so I won’t say too much but I like to refer to myself as the hot minute intern in her life, and I stand by that position.
