    Through a story about magical found furniture, Lynn shares how there's probably a reason behind why something isn't working, be it physical, emotional or craft related. When we can slow down, release judgement, and give ourselves permission to get curious, we can usually discover a logical reason behind what's keeping us stuck. In doing so we can begin the process of moving forward toward a solution.

    Lynn and Desean talk determination, Desean's journey to and through the prestigious Juilliard school, the importance of continued learning and how that translates to teaching.  They discuss Desean's take on Stanley in "Streetcar," creating new theatre including the powerful "Shotgun Medley" through Collaborative Artist's Bloc theatre company in Los Angeles, and how creating art can be activism, particularly, the Black Lives Matter movement. We hope you are encouraged to be you and JUST DO THE THING!They also learn that probably don't record a podcast DURING construction, but ya know, it's all about learning anyway!!!

    Created by Brooke Castillo of The Life Coach School, The Model is a culmination of thought from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and self-help teachers. I think of it like an algebra problem to solve for X, the Thought that is in charge of your feelings actions and results. That's why I call it the Math behind Manifesting. This is just a jumping off point to get you intrigued!The Model Defined:Circumstance: Anything that's on the outside of you. Anything you can't control. Neutral. The facts of the situation. Could be proven in court. 50 people could agree. No adjectives, no opinions. (Nouns go here: people, places and things. This includes other people's feelings, actions, words.)Thought: A sentence in your brain.  Your perspective, opinion, point of view on the circumstance.Feeling: A vibration in your body.  Emotion. Harmless.Action: Behaviors that can be perceived on the outside. Included avoidance actions and inaction.Results: What you get from the combination of your actions, feelings, and thoughts.  Neutral. Factual. Always proves the thought right.
