Artist Windy Chien joins Libby for a ‘Walk & Talk’ to discuss quitting her job at Apple in her 40s to pursue a ‘third career’ as an artist. She’s best known for her 2016 work The Year of Knots, in which she learned a new knot every day for a year, and now turns that knowledge into works of art that can fit in the palm of a child's hand to room-sized installations that are sought after by private collectors. This conversation is a reminder that we can start over at any age, be it big or small, to pursue the things that make us feel more connected to ourselves and others.
