Jordan I Garrett, or J.I.G. LeFrost, was our first interview for this issue. There is always that feeling before knocking on the door or calling to let someone know we’ve arrived, where you get bursts of doubt, the feeling that you haven’t prepared enough, or thought of the most accurate questions. With Jordan, as soon as he opened the door, that all melted away. He opened his home and his soul to us in a way that still to this day moves us when we read this interview. Some people were born to tell stories, and we believe Jordan is one of those people. We sat in his living room watching the sun pass through his stained glass windows as Jordan told us all about his life with laughter, immense loss, and most stunningly, his complete and absolute openness in seeing the world for the beautiful mess it is.
