don’t worry, i’m finite‪.‬ don't worry, i'm finite.

We're all looking for our next big opportunity, but it's not always easy to know how to be ready for it. In this episode I speak with Meagan Eishen, a pianist, singer, designer, and calligrapher, about taking risks in your art, putting in the work, and saying yes to things that scare you. We discuss how we've both taken chances and ended up in places we never expected as a result and how we make the most of those places once we get there. We also bond over music, movies, and a love of trying new things!

Do you ever feel like you need to shift your outlook on the world? My guest this week is Alyssa Ditch, author, dancer, and intuitive healer. Alyssa has worked hard to recontextualize her purpose and intention in life and is dedicated to helping others work on theirs. We talk extensively about expectations and how they can often set us up for failure and how to eschew the conditioning we’ve been brought up with to find our true selves. We get into making connections with other people, setting intention to your actions, and finding your own way of understanding the world. Enjoy my chat with Alyssa!

This week’s guest is Kimberly English, a painter of farmlands and Americana. She has been building her business for a decade and growing within the South Jersey farming community to help immortalize the places that sustain so many families and lifestyles there. Not only does she help raise money for local charities, but she also uses her artwork to promote understanding of an important facet of daily life. We get into growing a business organically, finding inspiration in the unknown, and the connection between artists and farmers (there’s more than you think!) Enjoy my episode with the amazingly talented Kimberly English!

There’s an inherent romanticism to being a touring artist on the road, but my guest, Mary Scholz, and I know that there’s a lot of ups and downs to that life. Mary is a singer/songwriter, a multi-instrumentalist, and a great friend. She has been putting out great music for many years, and she just released a new EP called Lonesome in conjunction with signing to her new label. Mary and I get into the isolation and freedom of traveling solo, making authentic and genuine connections with other people, and how reframing your failures as part of the path forward can be liberating and inspiring. Enjoy our chat!

When you find something you’re passionate about and put all your energy into it, great things can happen. My guest this week, Chanel James, does just that with everything she creates. As a filmmaker she has been writing, directing, and producing her own work as well as helping others realize their own films for a long time now. Her pure passion for the art comes through in our discussion where we get into honing your craft even when you’re not working, using your skills to help others, and overcoming the feelings of imposter syndrome. We got to reminisce about our favorite times in music and pop culture history and dig deep into the difficult emotions that come along with creating anything we call art. Enjoy my chat with Chanel James!

We all want to be our own boss, but is it sometimes better to have someone besides ourselves to be accountable to? This week I revisit my conversation with Nathan Terry, a composer, musician, and overall audio magician. He made the theme music for this podcast! We get into taking stock of our work and life, making things work with whatever we have available, and how allowing ourselves to fail when trying new things can often be the key to our success. As we reminisce about the many projects we've worked on together over the years, we talk about how communication is so important in creative partnerships.
