Brett Bashaw and I have been friends since high school. We traveled together in parts of the USA and Mexico in our late teens and early 20's. I have always known Brett to be a sincere searcher for meaning and love. He is someone who has overcome profoundly difficult circumstances and practiced forgiveness towards others.
He and his wife, Natashaw Lawyer, published the book "Tin Can Homestead: The Art of Airstream Living" and run their own pottery company Sugarhouse Ceramic Co.
In this conversation Brett and I talk about his rough childhood, finding community, doing forgiveness, and learning how to establish boundaries later in life.
