Zest & Wishes

I reflect on my growth this past year, my new goals for this podcast, and the strange fast-paced yet endlessly slow time of staying at home. A chill & unscripted type of episode to start of February. ig: @zestandwishes.podcast Thank you for listening, you make this podcast possible! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jane7282/support

I contemplate what "good" art is, what art means as an abstract concept, what "counts" as art, and the differences between art & design. This'll be a mind-bender for all creatives listening. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jane7282/support

I recently am dwelling on starting a youtube channel where I upload art and life content. Here's my thoughts and whims and worries and hopes, among other things going on in my life now. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jane7282/support

I contemplate on the thought: Why do we sometimes endure discomfort when that discomfort can easily be gone? + another ode to minimalism!

We often think that ritual scrolling through instagram every day is entertaining and overall a great way to connect with incredible friends and creators. While I 100% agree with the benefits of social media: representation, inspiration, etc., recently I've come to think otherwise. Today I'll share some of my negative experiences with my endeavors online (especially instagram), and why I think it's important to distance ourselves from the toxic environment it often fosters. I hope you guys relate with this one! Zest & Wishes is a teen artist sharing her reveries, wonderings, and hopes as she encounters the ever-changing world.

EDIT: I initially took down this episode because I wasn't happy with the way I presented my thoughts (I unintentionally implied some things I don't believe in)...but podcasting is about improving and I wanted to still keep this one up so we can look back at my progress.

Title says it all, I discuss why I feel guilty, and explore the notion that perhaps "laziness" isn't a horrible thing. In fact, it is more than often something that we may just need in todays world.

I’m back! Today’s episode is all about my love for fashion and all my inspirations. I give you a brief rundown of my fashion journey thus far, and discuss the amazing (and not so amazing) parts of fashion. I also bring up Brandy Melville, high fashion, and fashion as an art form. P.S. You may have noticed that two of my episodes are missing from my podcast. They might be back up, but I made them private simply because I don't think they were good podcast episodes.

I mention painting my walls white, my old love for ballet, and among other things, how friendships are during this strange time. I hope you enjoy this sit-down-and-talk-with-your-friend episode vibe!
