I’m grateful to Elizabeth for this discussion where we talk about her background, her writing practice and, of course, her recent book, “Speak, Okinawa: A Memoir.” I appreciate her openness and vulnerability and hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

You can read my previous review of her book here.
