What is a Good Life?

Lucinda Millward is the founder of The Baskerville Project and a practitioner in embodied relational practice - bringing creativity, the body, and the nervous system into collective inquiry. She works across executive education, the arts, and public contexts, holds degrees from the University of Oxford, the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, and RADA and King’s College London, and has served for seven years as Acting Course Director at the Fontainebleau School of Acting, alongside several years teaching at Guildhall.

In this conversation, Lucinda speaks about what it costs to speak true - and why so many of us have learned not to. We explore the childhood roots of devoicing, the paradox of using other people's words to say what we cannot otherwise say, what it means to really look someone in the eye, and why she believes that in one's wound lies one's gift.

A beautiful conversation about courage, presence, and what it means to let yourself be witnessed.

What is What is a Good Life??

A project exploring the big questions around how we live, who we are and what actually matters. Over the past four years, I’ve sat with more than 300 people — artists, parents, executives, wanderers, therapists, and strangers and invited them into a simple but profound inquiry, "What is a good life for you?"
The conversations explore presence, paradox, uncertainty, and the moments that shape a life - love and loss, trust and fear, clarity and not knowing. It’s an invitations to slow down, to listen deeply, and to bring you into conversation with your own life. There are new episodes every Tuesday.
