Summary
Animation producer and first-time director Pilar Flynn shares the extraordinary story of a creative download that arrived during a meditation retreat beneath ancient redwoods. The experience was so specific, that it told her to adapt a beloved story by literary icon Isabel Allende, assemble a Latino creative team, and pursue an Oscar campaign. Pilar had never directed before, had no funding, and no obvious path forward. Yet one by one, impossible doors opened. In this conversation, Pilar and Ky explore intuition, ancestral guidance, magical realism, fear, worthiness, and what happens when creativity feels less like something we own and more like something that chooses us.
