    Leaping into Self Discovery with a Gap Year

    Just what is a gap year?

    Traditionally a gap year has been defined as the year you take off before starting college. What was once deemed frivolous activity; many are realizing the importance of creating intentional time to explore the world around them, and to discover what’s really important to them.

    During this episode of Sorry Not Sorry, cohost Jenni Lewis-Ford will interview four artists who took a leap of faith and participated in a one-of-a-kind gap year program in NYC. Far from a time for inaction, a gap year is a time to define the road for yourself! We will hear their stories, what they have learned about themselves during this program, and how this experience will shape their future.
