ANNOUNCING "GET BETTER" - A NEW PODCAST TO INSPIRE YOU TO MAKE THE STUFF YOU WANT TO MAKE!

Get Better is a podcast of conversations with independently creative people exploring how and why they do what they do in a world and culture that tries to convince us our greatest value is the work we do for an employer. The show digs deep into what jump starts peoples’ independent creative processes and how they stay motivated to follow through. Society demands for most of us, our productive and creative energy will be directed towards someone else's goals or vision in order to pay our bills and our rent; oftentimes contributing to a culture of consumption young people are growing less and less fond of. So finding the motivation to do and make things for just ourselves or our communities can be a small seed of resistance; and dare I say it #SelfCare. By sharing a collective of voices uplifting each other's work and discussing how we can keep growing together, I hope we will inspire more of those seeds to be planted and bloom. That is to say, in a sea of podcasts asking “how much worse can things get?” I want to flip the narrative and ask “how can we all get better together?”

Each episode features a one on one conversation with people whose personal creative endeavors have placed them at all different levels on the ladder of social or financial success. I have just as much to learn talking to someone who sets aside time every week to do needlepoint of birds they see in their yard as I do from someone who got rich and famous selling their own music. I explore what sparked their interest in their creative outlet, what drives them to do it regardless of financial reward, and how they discipline and hone their skill to get better. I’d also love to have discussions with activists and mutual aid workers in different fields… but I’m taking this one step at a time. If you think you or someone you know might be interested in coming on the podcast, tell me! Get in touch here!
