Rainn Wilson

Well, yeah, that's an interesting question. You know, I'm much more balanced right now, but it's a different set of challenges at 58. You know, it's kind of like What should I be doing? What is my life really about? Am I on the best possible path for myself? A bit more existential? It's a little more existential. You have a little bit more of a sense of the end zone is up here.

It's only 20 or 30 yards away. It's not way down there. and every year every clump of years certainly every decade really counts when you're hitting your late 50s and headed toward dear god my 60s so it's a different kind of spiritual crisis so maybe when i'm 87 i'll look back and be like Oh, remember when you went through that, what you went through in your late 50s and how rewarding that was.

And I'm sure there will be some of that. I'm sure there will.

Well, I still have a codependent relationship with show business, which is frustrating. Show business is just a giant popularity contest. I've gotten to play amazing roles since The Office. I've gotten to be in some incredible films and TV shows. And I did this travel show on happiness called Rainn Wilson and the Geography of Bliss that came out last year. I saw that. Yeah, and it was...

really rewarding, one of the most rewarding things that I've done. But it's hard making it in Hollywood and it's hard, you know, getting new projects and exciting projects and having people see you differently than Dwight Schrute has always been a challenge. So I still have that kind of iron in the fire.

And, you know, there's part of me that kind of wants to just give a big fuck you to Hollywood and just move out into the woods and write books and play chess. And I may still do that. So that's one challenge. And sometimes I feel a little bit stuck. Sometimes I feel like I've taken a lot of really positive steps. Like I'm in recovery. I've taken really positive, great steps in recovery.

That's been a really rewarding journey for me. Writing Soul Boom, doing the Soul Boom podcast, having these kind of elevated spiritual conversations has been exciting and uplifting for me. But, you know, can I go deeper? What does that look like? You know, what does, you know, the great spirit, the great mystery, the, you know, the cosmic force want from me in the next, you know...
