What does anger mean? What is is productive? When is it not? How is anger gendered and how does that effect how characters interact? How does the myth of Achilles play directly into this entire book? This week Ava, Niamh, and Brayden have enlisted the help of Dr. Elizabeth Bartlett (Classics, Classical Archeology, Classical Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics) to answer these questions and to analyze The Last Olympian Chapters 3 & 4 "I Get a Sneak Peek at My Death" and "We Burn a Metal Shroud" through the theme of Anger. Dr. Bartlett holds a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Classics and Classical Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics from Scripps College, Master of Arts (M.A.) in Classics and Classical Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics from the University of Arizona, and a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Classical, Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern Studies and Archaeology from the University of Virginia. She currently teaches Latin and Mythology at the McDonogh School.

This is our first bonus episode! I’m so excited for this episode because I’m bringing you Tript and Prabh Johal from Buzzing Creatives and we are talking about using Pinterest to grow your business. Part of the reason I’m excited is because this is a great topic and we get into a lot of cool discussions about how you can use Pinterest, the tools that they like to use to manage Pinterest, and some tips for the new changes that the platform has been making and how you can take advantage of them. They also wrap up with some good advice if you’re just starting out or transitioning your Pinterest account to a business account so you can make sure that you’re on the right foot. The other reason I’m excited about this episode is because Buzzing Creatives is actually and client of mine and when this episode goes live, we will be just a few days away from launching their new website and their new Pin for Growth course. I would love it if you would check out their website. They are so passionate about helping creatives who have a little bit of a different background, which we talk more about it the episode. Tript & Prabh of Buzzing Creatives, are social media experts that specialize in Instagram & Pinterest - and yes they are sisters! They teach creative entrepreneurs how to grow their business online by leveraging social media. Buzzing Creatives was born out of their knowledge, experience, and passion for teaching. Being creatives at heart, Tript & Prabh are passionate about creative entrepreneurs turning their creativity into profitability without compromising their artistic integrity. Buzzing Creatives was developed at a time when both Tript & Prabh were on individual trajectories which they thought would never meet. But what they forgot was that more than being sisters they were best friends and more than best friends they were soul mates. To have your sister as your soul mate is the best case scenario, you just can’t lose and so their individual fates aligned perfectly to create a window in time when Buzzing Creatives was finally born! Buzzing Creatives has grown into a community of creatives that inspire each other. At the heart of buzzing creatives is the belief that innovation is the result of a community full of supporting creatives and that is why they place emphasis on building a sense of community where teachers are students and vice versa, so everyone can learn from each other and grow as creatives. Outside of Buzzing Creatives, Tript & Prabh both love to travel, read books, watch Bollywood, listen to U2 and go on crazy adventures. Tript has a Master’s Degree in Gender and International Development from the Institute of Development Studies UK along with her BA from the University of British Columbia. Prabh is currently doing her Ph.D. in Art History with focus on Classical Archeology at the University of Toronto, she completed her Masters in Classical Archaeology from the University of Oxford and previously completed her BA from the University of British Columbia. Topics Discussed: How Tript & Prabh decided to start Buzzing Creatives Creating a place for online business owners who feel marginalized in other groups Why Pinterest is an important platform for creative entrepreneurs How Pinterest is different than other social platforms Group boards and finding which ones will benefit you Tools you can use to manage and grow your Pinterest account Writing descriptions for pins and boards that get found Transitioning a personal Pinterest account into a business one What types of boards your business should have Using Tailwind tribes to share content Tript and Prabh’s upcoming Pin for Growth course Action Steps: Set up a Pinterest business account Start pinning consistently, focusing on the 1st five pins each day Write pin descriptions that include keywords and that link to a page with matching content Create attractive Pinterest graphics (600px x 900px is optimal) Resources Discussed: Tailwind Board Booster Canva Connect with Buzzing Creatives: Website Instagram Facebook group Pin for Growth course

EPISODE SNEAK PEEK: ”There aren’t right answers. There’s really just perspectives and perceptions. And sometimes as a community, a collective, we all agree on things. But there will almost always be the marginalized.”   WITH TRIPT AND PRABH JOHAL LISTEN! WHAT'S IN THIS EPISODE? From the socialization of females that leads to imposter syndrome to battling anxiety and depression and not feeling able to talk about it to a lack of inclusivity in the online creative community and the non-inclusivity of lumping all women of color into one category, this is one hell of a conversation. Sisters and co-creators of Buzzing Creatives, Tript and Prabh Johal are two amazing women. And while they spend their weeks pursuing a PhD in Classical Archaeology and teaching creative entrepreneurs how to leverage social media to grow their businesses, we talk about so much more in this conversation. We talk about… Living and growing up in a South Asian immigrant family How academia has played an important role in both of their roles The socialization of females from a young age that leads to imposter syndrome and not owning our worth A lack of inclusivity in the online creative entrepreneur space Mental health and speaking out about our experiences of it How a love of handmade products inspired Buzzing Creatives Why “women of color” is not an intersectional and inclusive term And so much more...

Rebecca My insatiable curiosity about people and culture developed at an early age, and was likely the result of many European misadventures and my experiences living in England, Denmark, and Canada. There is nothing like playing among the columns of a Bronze Age palace surrounded by the sapphire waters of the Mediterranean to pique an eight year old's interest and imagination. I focused my University studies in Classical Archeology and Literature, Physical Anthropology, Social Work, and Criminology. For those of you questioning my use of the word 'focused' ...well, you'll just have to trust me when I say that I couldn't file my interests down to any sharper a point. I tried. The yearly course lists crammed with intriguing possibilities made me feel like a kid in a candy store - one of those really big stores with colorful jars lining the walls from floor to ceiling. My career path has continued in the same vein. I was my grandmother's caregiver for two years; an opportunity for which I am ever grateful as spending that time with such a remarkable woman shaped me in ways I am still discovering. Among other things, I've been a vet assistant, worked at a halfway house for high-risk offenders, sat on many kids as a mascot, been the operations manager for a private investigation firm, and spent several months in Ontario with the Red Cross helping refugees from Kosovo acclimatize to Canada. I've also volunteered within maximum-security prisons and the community to help people serving life sentences transition from the regimented bubble of prison back to a very changed outside world. Why I Write Simply put - I write to explore, express, and connect. I delve into the web of relationships linking humans, animals, and the environment. I peer into my characters inner worlds and explore the inherent violence and compassion bound together in the human spirit. My guiding principle is that the human mosaic is beautiful because of the unique nature of each piece and I do my best to celebrate this diversity in my work. Adriaan I grew up in Calgary, Alberta on the divide between the prairie and Mountains. Calgary is a city that's surrounded by wide empty spaces. I think there's something about the pressing wilderness that makes one appreciate the inherent fragility of human society. I've always been a bit of a dreamer with one foot in a world of make-believe. I learned to read very young and it's been my addiction ever since. Speculative 'what if' style stories (James and the Giant Peach) or stories that take you entirely out of the human frame of reference (Watership Down) quickly lead me into harder stuff (Tolkien, Heinlein) My urge to see the world took me to Kingston, Ontario for university, then to Berkshire, England for a few years, though I'm generally drawn back to Calgary by ties of blood and friendship. Though we're often fooled by distance. You don't need to move half-way around the world to gain a new perspective, sometimes moving a few miles can make just as much of a difference. I studied Engineering at university, though while there I was drawn in to the online community on the old IBM mainframe and then into this new and fascinating idea out of CERN called the 'World Wide Web'. This led me into tinkering with computer programming which became a bit of an obsession that luckily people like to pay me for. I remember being told that the made-up worlds I loved were a childish thing that I would need to grow out of if I wanted to succeed in life. The older I get, the more I realise how wrong this is. In just the past few millennia, humans have moved from chipping tools out of stones to space exploration and heart transplants. Every step on that path was driven by someone who dreamed up something impossible. Some of the writers that inspire me today are Lois Bujold, David Drake and C.J. Cherryh. These authors take on tough questions about what it means to be moral and the destiny of humanity without flinching. They inspire me to be a better person, as well as a better writer. As an avid reader I'll never lose sight of the fact that the Author's first duty is to entertain but beyond that my goal is to bring back a sense of optimism about human achievement. The dark side of our natures will always be with us but I'm convinced that humanity has an amazing future ahead and prefer to dream big.

WEBSITE: www.braevitae.com TWITTER: twitter.com/RebeccaBrae FACEBOOK: facebook.com/braevitae BOOK 1: CHAOS BOUND (2014) When the going gets weird, the tough are useless. You need a geek. Jessica is no superhero, and though she believes being smart, curious, and compassionate should be considered qualifications, society has yet to agree. Her life in Coldwater is low-key and predictable, just the way she likes it. Her biggest worries are staying at the top of her classes and avoiding the popular crowd, but a change that will shake the world is already taking hold in her small town. The death of a classmate kicks her out of her safe routine. Stalked by the supernatural killer, she’ll need to embrace the chaos in order to survive: Lying, stealing, invoking barely understood magic, and even crashing a house party. Abandoned by her friends and labelled a troublemaker, she’s determined to find a way to stop the killer. But at what cost? BOOK 2: CURSE BOUND (2016) When the world goes crazy, it helps to have a head start. Mutant science projects, a troubled werewolf, and other magic-related dangers are Jessica’s new normal, but someone has started targeting the students of Coldwater High with powerful curses, and she’s a suspect. A serious mistake forces her to question whether she deserves Drew and Michiru’s loyalty, and with the gatekeeper’s alien influence in her head, she’s not even sure she can trust herself. Just as Jessica realizes she has also been hit with a lethal curse, a disastrously magical Valentine’s Day leaves her cut off from friends and forces her to put her life in the hands of her worst enemy. MIST WARDEN SERIES BLURB (YA Urban Fantasy) The town of Coldwater is a quiet, in-between kind of place on the outskirts of Calgary at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Nestled up against the edge of a First Nation reserve, the town is a classic mix of big-city commuters and rural residents. But there are more secrets lost to history than anyone could imagine and now Coldwater is set to return to a more central role in the workings of the universe. Three teens just entering high school are caught up in the transformation: Jessica has lived in Coldwater all her life and loves the quiet. A proud geek, she's far happier lost in a book or an equation than dealing with the so-called ‘real world’. When dangerous forces are set loose in her town and start maiming and killing her classmates, she’s compelled to investigate. She never could leave a mystery alone. Drew is one of the new First Nation students at Coldwater High and his goal is to be anywhere else as soon as possible. Armed with his trusty laptop and an extensive knowledge of tech and random facts, he becomes Jessica’s reluctant ally. His curiosity drives him to get involved and help out against his better judgement, but he does it all with his trademark wit and wicked snark. Michiru is a force of nature and exceptional athlete who has lived all over the world, with most of her time spent in big cities like London, Amsterdam, Paris, New York, and Toronto. She confidently expects her stay in Coldwater to be every kind of dull, except for the camping and skiing, but is pleasantly surprised to find all the excitement she could want and more.
