Freckled Foodie & Friends

In this episode, I sit down with actor, musician, and writer Nico Tortorella to talk about everything from why this is the most nervous I’ve ever been for an interview; to how he discovered songwriting during his wife’s pregnancy. We discuss my journey with Nico’s work and why his book, “Space Between: Explorations of Love, Sex, and Fluidity” deeply moved me, how challenging it was for him to write the book, and how his views on gender have expanded since having a child. He shares how he was raised regarding queerness, how his and his wife’s monogamy has organically taken shape since having their child, and what it was like having a profound home birth experience. He also talks about his views on approaching gender conversations in households, his ten-year sobriety from alcohol, on allowing ourselves and others permission to change our minds, and much more.Key Takeaway / Points:My journey with Nico’s work and why this is the most nervous I’ve ever been for an interview (On where Nico was in life when he wrote
