2025 Festival Highlights | Seeking Discomfort

Listen back to highlight events from #UWRF25, with new episodes released every week. In this week’s episode, Australian Rewilding Facilitator and writer Gina Chick , British-born essayist and novelist Pico Iyer , and Indonesian travel writer Agustinus Wibowo join Krishna Sen in an extraordinary conversation on seeking discomfort, showing how embracing fear, trying new things, and taking risks makes discomfort a catalyst for growth rather than an obstacle to development. You can enjoy this latest highlight session, recorded live at our 2025 Festival, at ubudwritersfestival.com/media and on podcast platforms such as Spotify and Simplecast.
