What The Journeyman Taught Me About Change”
In this season we reflect on the moment when the old story stops working and a new one begins. After years of creative pause through the uncertainty of 2020–2024, I share how writing my debut novel The Journeyman: An Apprentice’s Tale helped me rediscover purpose, rhythm, and flow.
I speak about how the world’s turbulence mirrored my own inner crossroads — and how The Journeyman became both a story and a mirror for the times we’re living in. The true meaning of the word journeyman — “a day’s labor” — and how steady, daily effort shapes both craft and character.
Rohan, the book’s protagonist: a man caught between anxiety and ambition, striving and surrender, learning to find harmony in a world that no longer makes sense. That search becomes the foundation for this new season of Forked, built around five timeless lessons from The Journeyman:
1️⃣ Breathe
2️⃣ Embrace imperfection
3️⃣ Be present
4️⃣ Stay in motion
5️⃣ Walk your path
This episode sets the tone for a season about growth, courage, and the daily work of becoming — reminding us that the next step doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to be ours.
