  • Adventures in Sustainability with Multi-Disciplinary Artist Jakia Fuller
    2024/05/20

    Sustainability is a complex topic in the realm of creativity, especially in fashion. I didn’t understand the depths of meaning the word sustainability has until I spoke with today’s guest, Jakia Fuller. Jakia is a multidisciplinary artist and clothing designer based in New Mexico. In this episode, we discuss...

    • the current fashion “sustainability” space (do sustainable brands have flaws? should we buy from fast fashion brands?)
    • developing your eco-friendly values as a creative
    • and cultivating a sense of adventure in your life

  • 🏃🏽‍♀️ Why I Left the Social Media Streets
    2024/05/06

    I deleted my personal & creative Instagram accounts in December 2023, leading to a limited social media presence in 2024. Leaving social media has been a journey of realization for me. It also presents challenges as a creative because I have to be more intentional about sharing my creations with the world. In this episode, I share my evolution through social media platforms and some of the revelations I've experienced six months post-social.

  • ⏪ REWIND: Learn about Creativity Counseling with Cindy Cisneros
    2024/03/25

    Hey y'all! I wanted to share a rewind back to an episode you might have missed last season. Did you know that creative counseling is a real practice within the mental health sphere? Last year for Mental Health Awareness month, I had a great conversation with Cindy Cisneros, a Creativity Counselor, where we discussed her experiences in creativity counseling, ways to pave your creative journey, finding balance, and more. Take a listen! If you're interested, you can connect with Cindy through her website.

  • Building a Six-Figure Business without Social Media: A Chat with Amelia Hruby
    2024/02/12

    As social media changes to more "media" than "social" elements, many have chosen to leave social media platforms. But how do you leave when social media is your main avenue for marketing your creative ventures or your small business? In this episode, I chat with writer, teacher, and founder of Softer Sounds Amelia Hruby about her journey building a six-figure business after leaving social media. Through her success, I hope that every creative who feels disillusioned by social media knows that they can leave these apps and still be successful creatives.
