In this episode of Working Class Audio, Matt welcomes back producer, engineer, mixer, multi-instrumentalist, singer and, songwriter, Alan Evans. Alan is of course well known as a member of his band Soulive. He's also been a past guest on WCA #133 and 328. Matt Boudreau and Alan Evans reflect on the past year and share insights on creativity, health, and the music industry. They discuss the importance of recharging creatively, embracing technology, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to ensure longevity in their careers. The duo also emphasizes the significance of simplicity in music production, the role of album artwork, and the power of community and connection in fostering creativity. As they look ahead to 2026, they express excitement for new projects and the journey of self-discovery in their artistic endeavors.In This Episode, We Discuss:Reflections on the past yearCreativity and staying inspiredRecharging creativelyHealth, wellness, and career longevitySimplicity in music productionThe role and value of album artworkCommunity and connection as creative fuelLooking ahead to 2026New projects on the horizonSelf-discovery through artistic workLinks and Show Notes:Al's SiteOrb AudioMicrocosm AudioAl on WCA #133Al on WCA #328Matt's Rant: What's Inspiring MeCredits:Guest: Alan EvansHost/Engineer/Producer: Matt BoudreauWCA Theme Music: Cliff TruesdellThe Voice: Chuck Smith

Show NotesMusic careers are often discussed through the lens of performance, technology, or commercial success. Less visible is the connective tissue that sustains those careers: community, advocacy, and long-term support systems. In this episode of Music Evolves: Sonic Frontiers, the conversation centers on how structured networks and intentional recognition shape opportunity across the music industry.Laura Whitmore, Founder of The Women's International Music Network and Senior Vice President of Marketing at Positive Grid, shares how the organization was created to address a simple but persistent issue: women working across music often operate in parallel, rarely connected despite facing similar challenges. The network focuses on bridging that gap by creating shared spaces for visibility, mentorship, and collaboration across roles including artists, executives, engineers, marketers, and legal professionals.A central anchor of that effort is the She Rocks Awards, now in its fourteenth year. The awards, taking place during The NAMM Show 2026, highlight women contributing across all layers of the industry, not only those on stage. The emphasis is on storytelling and presence, giving space for honorees to speak openly about career paths, obstacles, and resilience. That visibility has a ripple effect, normalizing leadership diversity and encouraging others to see themselves as part of the industry's future.The discussion also addresses how technology fits into this ecosystem. From AI-assisted music tools to digital platforms that broaden access, innovation plays a role when it amplifies creativity rather than replacing it. The focus remains on preserving human expression while using technology to remove friction and expand reach.Another recurring theme is generational continuity. Younger creators and professionals bring new perspectives on consumption, creation, and community. Engaging them early, listening closely, and building inclusive pathways ensures the industry remains relevant and sustainable.This episode frames music not only as art or business, but as a shared cultural system. Networks like this one reinforce that progress does not happen automatically. It is built through intentional connection, recognition, and sustained effort.GuestLaura Whitmore, Founder of The Women's International Music Network and Senior Vice President of Marketing at Positive Grid | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurabwhitmore/HostSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine, Studio C60, and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/ResourcesThe Women's International Music Network: https://thewimn.com/2026 She Rocks Awards: https://sherocksawards.com/The NAMM Show 2026 is taking place from January 20-24, 2026 | Anaheim Convention Center • Southern California — Coverage provided by ITSPmagazine — Follow our coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/cybersecurity-technology-society-events/the-namm-show-2026The NAMM Show 2026: https://www.namm.org/thenammshow/attendMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/Keywordssean martin, laura whitmore, women's international music network, she rocks awards, positive grid, namm, music advocacy, music marketing, women in music, music leadership, music, creativity, art, artist, musician, music evolves, music podcast, music and technology podcastMore From Sean MartinMore from Music Evolves: https://www.seanmartin.com/music-evolves-podcastMusic Evolves on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTRJ5du7hFDXjiugu-uNPtWMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/On Location with Sean and Marco: https://www.itspmagazine.com/on-locationITSPmagazine YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@itspmagazineBe sure to share and subscribe!

Before we step into a new year, I take some time to share what's coming up in 2026 for the Let's Talk Yoga and Aham Yoga community. There's a lot unfolding, from a brand-new 300-hour online yoga teacher training to in-person study and international travel, and I wanted to lay it all out clearly so you know what's ahead and how to be part of it.After the updates, I'm joined by Rebecca from the Working in Yoga podcast for a thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation on creativity in yoga teaching.

HT2486 - Creativity on Demand Here we are in that week between the Christmas and New Year holidays when a lot of people take time off from work for a few personal days. For years, I thought of this week as a time I could concentrate on some darkroom work. I'd leap into the week full of enthusiasm in anticipation of a shower of creative ideas and inspiration. That's when I learned that relying on creativity on demand is a strategy that rarely works.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with bestselling author and keynote speaker David McNally to explore what it truly means to age with vitality. David reframes “successful aging” away from surface markers like money or staying busy, and toward something deeper: rich life experiences, meaningful contribution, and a compelling reason to get up each morning. He shares how many people feel lost after retirement because their sense of relevance was validated externally—through meetings, emails, and titles—until it suddenly disappears. The remedy, he explains, is finding relevance from within by rediscovering mission, gifts, and service. David offers grounded, practical ways to reconnect with purpose: reflect on what inspires you, who inspires you, and what fulfills you, then choose where your talents can add value. He also challenges the “too old” mindset, emphasizing that creativity expires only when we do—and that the brain and imagination can keep expanding. Finally, he highlights acceptance and peace of mind as essential to aging well, and recommends simple daily habits like journaling, reading something uplifting, and doing one small act to improve someone else's day. About the Guest: David McNally is a bestselling author (Even Eagles Need a Push, Be Your Own Brand, and If You Are Alive, Your Mission on Earth Isn't Finished), award-winning documentary producer, and Speaker's Hall of Fame member. His work focuses on purpose, resilience, and human potential, shaped by profound personal loss and his own health journey. Key Takeaways: Measure success by experiences, meaning, and relationships—not just achievements. Purpose is a “reason to get up,” especially after work life ends. Retirement can trigger a relevance gap; rebuild relevance from the inside out. Ask: What inspires me? Who inspires me? What fulfills me? Creativity doesn't expire with age—growth is still available. Acceptance creates peace of mind: control what you can, release what you can't. Daily habits: journal/reflect, read uplifting material, move toward a goal, help someone.

#133 Creativity Is Presence: How Archetypes Unlock Healing & Self-Expression with An MarshallIn this deeply reflective conversation, Vanessa Soul sits down with archetypal coach, artist, and Soul Collage facilitator Ann Marshall to explore creativity as a spiritual practice, archetypes as mirrors for consciousness, and why artistic expression is not a talent reserved for a few but a birthright for all.Ann shares her personal journey of reclaiming creativity after years of suppression, addiction, and self-doubt, revealing how art became a pathway to healing, wholeness, and purpose. Together, Vanessa and Ann explore how archetypes operate through light and shadow, how creativity activates presence and receptivity, and why many people resist artistic expression not because they lack creativity, but because it reveals something honest and powerful within them.This episode is an invitation to reconnect with your inner artist, understand the archetypes shaping your life, and remember that your creative voice carries wisdom the world needs.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy creativity is about presence, not performanceHow archetypes function as both a mirror and a map for transformationThe difference between vision boards (intention) and Soul Collage (revelation)How the Seeker, Healer, and Artist archetypes show up in light and shadowWhy resistance, self-criticism, and frustration often appear when creativity awakensHow five minutes a day of creative expression can unlock flow and healingThe role of receptivity and trust in higher creative expressionHow archetypes intersect with astrology and the 5th house of creativityWhy withholding your creative voice is a disservice to the collectiveCONNECT WITH AN MARSHAL Website: https://anmarshallartist.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/anmarshallartist/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHs3XryK-F9-pT72USl-xwg

We talk all about the challenges of holding on to your creativity, especially in your twenties when hope and optimism are high. What happens when your plans don't go the way you expected?

Rachel Gogel, an independent design executive and "devoted generalist," shares her journey from GQ and Facebook to creating her own fractional leadership consultancy. Operating at the intersection of brand, culture, and technology, she works with organizations like Airbnb and Intuit while teaching at California College of the Arts.Her career philosophy centers on designing your own path without permission—starting when she unexpectedly became a people manager at GQ in her early twenties. Rachel redefines success as a harmonious blend of consulting, mentoring, teaching, speaking, and advocacy—deliberately remaining small while creating meaningful impact. Drawing on experiences with chronic health conditions and loss, she advocates for conscious time design and questions the "FIRE" mentality, reminding us that time itself is a luxury we shouldn't take for granted.Key TakeawaysGeneralists belong in the creative landscape — The ability to adapt, work across mediums, and jump between projects at various altitudes represents uniquely human capabilities that AI cannot replicateConviction matters more than specialization — In rapidly changing creative industries, having strong principles and adaptability is more valuable than being pigeonholed into a single discipline or titleEmbrace discomfort as a catalyst for growth — The messiest moments and most uncomfortable situations often become the foundation for the greatest career breakthroughs and learning experiencesRelationships are your greatest asset — Every major opportunity comes through genuine connections built on generosity, empathy, and helping others succeed without expecting immediate returnsDesign your career without waiting for permission — You don't need validation from institutions or traditional career paths; you can package your unique skills and create your own professional identitySuccess doesn't require scaling up — Growth doesn't always mean expansion; you can be a successful solopreneur by remaining intentionally small and defining success on your own termsPractice conscious time design — Regularly audit where your time and energy go; ensure you're investing in work that aligns with your values, impact goals, and desired lifestyleRemember that time is a luxury — Don't defer meaningful work or authentic living to some distant future; be present and intentional with how you spend your finite time on this planetMoney and meaning don't have to be mutually exclusive — Challenge the false dichotomy between financial stability and creating meaningful work; both are possible with intentional career designShare knowledge and lift others up — Transparency about money, opportunities, and career paths creates community strength and often returns to benefit you in unexpected ways Daring Creativity.

We start with winter training reality in ski country, how to keep momentum when the days are short, the “subsistence” weeks that quietly save your season, and the eternal debate of pants, tights, and looking cool versus staying warm. From there it turns into a bigger conversation about identity, planning, uncertainty, and why the simplest answer sometimes is “we just have Jeff,” so we might as well make it a good one.Then we head straight into the good stuff, the White Mountains and the Mahoosuc Traverse, where “running” becomes scrambling, crawling, and three points of contact through the Mahoosuc Notch. Jeff breaks down the history and the legends (including Chris Getz and the steak stop), why style matters as much as speed in FKTs, and how different eras and ethics shape what we celebrate. We close with one of the most fun tangents of the whole Month of Jeff, what it is really like working in the AMC huts, from responsibility in dangerous weather to full-on blanket-folding skits, including Harry Potter and Frozen, all in service of three sacred rules: fold the blankets, pack out the trash, and tip the hut crew.Support our Sponsors: Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abChapters00:00 The Jeff Identity Crisis06:19 Winter Training in Mountain Towns09:18 Exploring the Mahusik Range12:37 The Legacy of Chris Getz15:27 Navigating the Mahusik Notch18:29 Style and FKT Philosophy22:00 The Challenge of Self-Supported FKTs24:56 Planning and Uncertainty in Adventure27:57 The Evolution of Trail Running Style42:22 Exploring Style in Trail Running44:16 The Debate on Supported vs. Unsupported47:43 The Evolution of Trail Running50:54 Killian Jornet: The Pinnacle of Trail Running54:43 Authenticity in Trail Running58:30 The Role of Creativity in Trail Running01:03:31 Life Lessons from Working in the HutsSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside

Welcome to episode #1016 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a moment when artificial intelligence is reshaping not just how markets operate but how people think, feel, decide and connect, understanding the human consequences of that shift has become essential. Mark Schaefer is a keynote speaker, educator, strategist, and a voice in modern marketing, with more than three decades of experience spanning global sales, public relations and brand strategy. He is a faculty member at Rutgers University. Mark's latest book, How AI Changes Your Customers - The Marketing Guide To Humanity's Next Chapter, extends his body of work by examining how AI is quietly rewiring consumer psychology, trust, agency, empathy, and belonging (be sure to check out his other books). Rather than focusing on algorithms or tools, Mark explores how customers are becoming more machine-assisted, less patient, more dependent on automation, and increasingly hungry for meaning and connection in a world optimized for efficiency. He argues that curiosity, art, and human connection are strategic advantages rather than soft ideals. Grounded in research, lived experience, and cultural observation, his work challenges marketers and leaders to rethink relevance, rethink loyalty, and rethink what it means to serve customers whose decisions are increasingly shaped by machines. At its core, Mark's perspective reframes AI not as a threat to humanity, but as a force that exposes what only humans can still do well…if they choose to lean into it.

Colin introduces the concept of becoming a business athlete — someone who treats recovery, mindset, focus, and boundaries as seriously as physical training.He breaks down signs you may need a digital reset, how habits form, the dangers of constant notifications, and why tech isn't the enemy — our lack of balance is.If you've ever felt overwhelmed, distracted, or too “plugged in,” this episode offers a grounded, hopeful roadmap to healthier digital living.⭐ Top 3 Highlights

What's up legends? In this episode, I sit down with Aaron Doughty for a deep, honest conversation about why so many of us lose ourselves in relationships and how people-pleasing, self-abandonment, and unexpressed emotion quietly drain attraction, polarity, and connection.We explore how childhood conditioning shapes adult identity, why tension isn't something to avoid but a necessary catalyst for growth, and how the pursuit of approval keeps us disconnected from our authentic power.This episode weaves together inner child dynamics, masculine and feminine polarity, self-acceptance, neutrality, and the subtle ways urgency, ego, and validation run our relationships, business, and sense of self-worth. We unpack why worthiness is a concept rather than a feeling, how embracing discomfort restores respect and desire, and why becoming more yourself is the real path to intimacy, leadership, and freedom.If you've ever felt drained in relationships, stuck in people-pleasing patterns, or caught between self-development and self-acceptance, this conversation will challenge the way you see love, identity, and what it actually means to come home to yourself.WORK WITH ME

Chris and Jody are hitting rewind and bringing back a special encore presentation of one of the most beloved conversations in Inside the Recording Studio history: their in-depth interview with CJ Vanston. And honestly? This one was worth rerunning anyway.   CJ Vanston isn't just a producer or keyboard wizard, he's a musical storyteller who's been behind the curtain of some truly iconic recordings. In this episode, Chris and Jody revisit their captivating conversation with CJ, unpacking how great records actually get made, why vibe matters more than gear lists, and what decades in the industry teach you that no plug-in manual ever will.   Behind the Curtain: CJ's Creative Process This encore gives you another chance to soak in CJ's refreshingly grounded approach to music production. He talks openly about creative decision-making, how he chooses sounds that serve the song (not the ego), and why less technical obsession often leads to more emotional impact. If you're deep into home studio gear, chasing better recording setup tips, or endlessly tweaking instead of finishing songs, this conversation might gently (or not-so-gently) reset your priorities.   CJ also dives into how he listens: stripping sessions down to the essentials, focusing on feel before fidelity, and trusting instincts over specs. It's a powerful reminder that great records aren't built by hiding behind menus or obsessing over hidden features in studio gear, but by committing to musical choices that communicate something real.   Musical Wisdom That Still Hits Whether you're an aspiring producer, a seasoned engineer, or a musician building tracks at home, CJ's insights hold up beautifully. He shares hard-earned lessons about collaboration, keeping sessions human, and why the best studios, regardless of budget, feel safe, playful, and honest.   Along the way, Chris and Jody keep things firmly grounded in Inside the Recording Studio fashion: smart questions, practical takeaways, and just enough nonsense to remind you that making music should still be fun. Expect laughs, side comments, and the kind of conversational detours that make it feel like you're hanging out in the control room rather than sitting through a lecture.   Why This Encore Matters If you missed this episode the first time, welcome, you're in for a treat. If you heard it before, you'll likely catch new details this time around, especially if your studio skills (or frustrations) have evolved. From practical mindset shifts to subtle production philosophies, this rerun proves that the best advice doesn't expire.   So grab your headphones, fire up your DAW (or maybe… close it for an hour), and join Chris and Jody as they revisit a timeless conversation about music, production, and the art behind the hits.

The Haunting Power of Imagination: A Journey into the Mind of a WriterThis story explores the themes of creativity, the struggle of an author to write horror stories, the conception of evil, and the psychological implications of bringing a monster to life through thought. It delves into the author's mental state as he grapples with his fears and the consequences of his imagination.In the dim glow of a solitary lamp, a writer sits, wrestling with the shadows of his own creation. The room is filled with an eerie silence, broken only by the occasional rustle of paper and the soft murmur of a voice, speaking to no one but himself. This is the world of "Lights Out," a series that delves into the unusual and the unsettling, where the boundaries between reality and imagination blur.The protagonist, a writer himself, finds his mind a battleground of ideas and fears. "I just don't know what to write about," he confesses, caught between the horrors of the world outside and the demons within. His struggle is not just with words, but with the very essence of creation. As he conjures monsters and tales of terror, he questions the morality of his craft—men are dying in foxholes, and here he is, weaving stories of ghosts and groans.Yet, it is this very act of creation that becomes his salvation and his curse. The writer's mind, a fertile ground for the seeds of imagination, gives life to a creature born of his darkest thoughts. "A tremendous force of fiendishness and inhumanity," he muses, as the lines between his fiction and reality begin to dissolve. The monster, a manifestation of his fears and guilt, becomes all too real, a testament to the power of thought and the dangers of dwelling too long in the shadows.As the story unfolds, we are reminded of the delicate balance between creativity and madness. The writer's journey is a cautionary tale, a reminder that our thoughts have the power to shape our reality, for better or worse. In the end, it is not the monsters we create that haunt us, but the realization that they are born from within.Subscribe now to explore more tales that challenge the boundaries of imagination and reality.TakeawaysThe stories told are not for the faint-hearted.Creativity can be a struggle, especially in horror.The author feels a deep connection to the characters he creates.Evil can manifest from one's own thoughts and fears.The act of writing can lead to psychological turmoil.The concept of a monster can symbolize inner demons.Mental health plays a crucial role in creative processes.The line between reality and imagination can blur in storytelling.The importance of belief in one's own narrative.Plot development often reflects personal experiences and fears.unusual stories, creativity, evil, monster, mental state, plot development, horror, radio drama, storytelling, psychological themes

Blah… That's how I feel about AI-generated writing. I have become personally outraged by all the sloppy AI that I read every day in social media. (However, it's actually working in my favor because I'm not scrolling as much as I used to.) Are you also tired of seeing the same phrases and the same cliches? Let's both be better. In this episode, I'll teach you the FLAT mnemonic test so you can spot when AI language is leaving you, well, generic. Trust me when I say it will enhance your writing quality! F - formulaic language L - lazy phrases A - artificial optimism T - thesaurus thinking. Special bonus! I'll give you a glimpse at what our Catalysts are saying inside my Catalyst Studio Mentorship. I'll share all the top apps they're using with AI and how they're using them so that you can level up your experience in the social media realm.   The future of charting with AI: https://drlarasalyer.com/2024/03/22/episode-106-the-future-of-charting-with-ai/ Take the FREE Micropractice Assessment: https://3nb09zv7070.typeform.com/to/P56ItjWi Catalyst Studio: https://drlarasalyer.com/catalyst/#studio Brainstorming session: https://drlarasalyer.as.me/discovery     Connect with Lara: Website: https://drlarasalyer.com The Catalyst Way: https://drlarasalyer.com/catalyst Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-catalyst-way-creative-strategies-for-women-in/id1611612131  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7d96T0XY32NxEefslXhLNo?si=90609a4ca6254dec  https://www.instagram.com/drlarasalyer/  https://www.facebook.com/drlarasalyer https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlarasalyer/ https://www.tiktok.com/@Creativity.Doctor 

At the beginning of the year, cartoonists Dave Kellett and Brad Guigar made their predictions for the coming year — and set goals for themselves. Now, as the year comes to a close, it's the brutally honest follow-up episode where they grade themselves — and sometimes discover that Past-Brad and Past-Dave were wildly optimistic. Or deluded. Or both.2025 PREDICTIONSDAVE: Business planning for cartoonists is gonna be filled with a lot of anxiety. Trump will be a chaos agent.BRAD: the “winners” of 2025 will be the cartoonists and businesses that help people *deal* with anxiety.DAVE: Bluesky will be at 50M users by the end of the year (we were at 23M when he made that prediction)BRAD: Substack: will gain in prominence. They're going to have a user base in the same league as Patreon, Kickstarter, or Twitter.DAVE: “We will all be playing reactionary, whack-a-mole with our life decisions in the first two years of the Trump administration.”BRAD: AI will start to gain a foothold among writers and artists, as an assistant to their writing or their process or their brainstorming. Dave concurred.

Vinny DelGuidice teaches us how to build a sustainable food blogging workflow using batching, planning ahead, and reusing what already works. Vinny DelGiudice is the creator of Always From Scratch, an Italian-American family food blog he started six years ago. He is a professional photographer, dad, and husband who focuses on developing nostalgic family recipes from his and his wife's childhood, meals that make it easier for families to sit down at the table and enjoy time together. Burnout is not a requirement for success. Vincent shares how he stopped forcing creativity, built a repeatable workflow, and learned to do less while growing more. This episode is a reality check for food bloggers who feel overwhelmed, scattered, or stuck in constant decision mode. Key points discussed include: Choose your creative time: You will make better content faster when you stop forcing creative work into the wrong hours. Batching saves your sanity: Planning shoots and tasks in advance removes decision fatigue and keeps momentum going. Plan tomorrow before today ends: Knowing exactly what you will work on next eliminates wasted mental energy. Reuse what already works: Series content and proven formats outperform constant reinvention. One shoot multiple assets: Shooting photo and video together cuts production time in half. Not every platform deserves you: Focus on where your audience actually is and outsource or skip the rest. Comparison kills momentum: Staying in your own lane protects creativity and consistency.

They explore various themes such as the significance of horse stance, the importance of community celebration, and the fun challenges that could be included in the holiday festivities. The conversation also delves into the role of a mascot, Garyll the Horse, and how it can enhance the holiday experience. Overall, the episode is a creative and humorous take on bringing the martial arts community together through a shared celebration. In this episode, the speakers brainstorm and develop the concept of 'Ambitioning Day,' a martial arts-themed event aimed at fostering community, motivation, and reflection among practitioners. They discuss the importance of planning, naming the event, incorporating fun activities, and establishing traditions that encourage participation and social interaction. The conversation highlights the significance of creating a welcoming atmosphere for both new and returning students, culminating in a unique celebration that emphasizes training and camaraderie.   TAKEAWAYS The martial arts community deserves its own holiday. Horse stance is a key element of the proposed holiday. Celebration can foster community among martial arts practitioners. The holiday can be a social event rather than a training session. Traditions can be flexible and vary by school. Fun challenges can engage participants and create memorable experiences. The mascot, Garyll the Horse, adds a whimsical touch to the holiday. Activities should be enjoyable and accessible to all ages. The holiday can be celebrated at different times by different schools. Creativity and humor are essential in developing the holiday's lore. The event is designed to re-energize New Year's resolutions. Reflection on training can be a powerful component of the event. Creating a fun atmosphere is essential for engagement. Traditions can enhance the experience and foster community. Food plays a significant role in social gatherings. Activities should cater to all skill levels and encourage participation.

Creative expression has powerful effects on our health and well-being, far beyond what we once imagined. In this SEE YOU NOW Insight, drawn from Episode 81: Making Spirits Bright (Part I), Susan Magsamen, Executive Director of the International Arts and Mind Lab at the Brain Science Institute at Johns Hopkins University, and senior advisor to the Science of Learning Institute at Johns Hopkins University, explores how science is beginning to validate what artists have long known: aesthetic and creative experiences are not luxuries, they are powerful tools for healing.

Year-End Reflections: Rest, Creativity, and Making Space for What MattersIn this short, reflective year-end episode of the Two Piers Podcast, host Erica D'Eramo closes out the year with an unscripted conversation recorded on Christmas Day in Maine—complete with snowstorms, power outages, and a curious cat in the background.Rather than a traditional interview, this episode offers space to slow down and reflect on what rest, creativity, and strategic thinking really require. Erica explores why the pressure to “come back refreshed” after the holidays often misses the mark, especially for people whose brains don't thrive in full stop mode.The conversation weaves together reflections on:Why rest doesn't always mean doing nothingHow flow-state activities (like cooking, reading, walking, or puzzles) can be deeply restorativeThe role of the brain's Default Mode Network (DMN) in creativity and strategic thinkingWhy constant busyness and digital distraction make it harder to think long-termPractical ways to create generative space without forcing stillnessThe episode closes with a reminder that joy is not something to feel guilty about—it's essential fuel for facing hard things and creating meaningful change.A gentle, human way to wrap up the year and head into the next with more intention and compassion.

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it's built around a simple idea I've come to believe deeply: the most important creative tools are free. Most creators assume they're stuck because they don't have the right gear, the right resources, or the right opportunity. But after decades of making work, interviewing hundreds of top creators, and studying the lives of artists across disciplines, I've noticed a different pattern. What actually holds people back isn't a lack of tools — it's a lack of the right conditions. Creativity doesn't break down because you don't have enough. It breaks down because you don't give yourself what the work requires. Here's the core idea: The foundations of great creative work aren't things you buy — they're things you practice. Experience. Space. Reflection. Discipline. Rest. These aren't nice-to-haves. They're the infrastructure that makes creative work possible. And most of them don't cost a thing — but they do require intention. One of the biggest mistakes I see is creators waiting. Waiting for inspiration. Waiting for clarity. Waiting for permission. But creative momentum doesn't come from waiting — it comes from engaging. From living. From making room to think. From showing up on a schedule. From giving yourself a break when the work gets hard. This episode is about stepping back and asking a better question: not "What do I need to buy?" but "What am I not giving myself?" In today's episode I cover: Why creative work depends on conditions, not inspiration The invisible tools behind consistent creative output How to support your creativity without adding more noise If you've been feeling stuck, this isn't a call to do more. It's an invitation to focus on what actually matters — and to remember that the most powerful tools you have have been with you all along. Until next time, give yourself the tools that matter — and give yourself a little grace along the way.  

Episode: 2817 Where do creative ideas come from?  Today, let's talk about creativity.

Chely Wright has sold over 1.5 million records with 90s country anthems like "Single White Female" and "Shut Up and Drive," she released her landmark autobiography, "Like Me" in 2010, becoming the first mainstream country star to come out, and forcing open conversations about LGBTQ identity, after a 10 year absence she returned to The Opry in 2019, released another book 'My Moment' in 2022, and has since pivoted to the corporate world where she is now an SVP.

On a mild Los Angeles night as Christmas bells rang out into the darkness like gentle couture thunder, fashion model, curator, writer, musician, and actor, Daphne Guinness, descended into the velveteen ether of The Bald and the Beautiful podcast studio, a gothic angel wrapped in mystery and myth. Together they summoned a yuletide séance of aristocracy and absurdity, a baroque nativity of wigs and wit. 'Twas a Christmas miracle where the holidays were reborn in gloss, glimmer, and divine pop excess. For a limited time get 40% off your first Hungryroot box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

David Choe is a world-renowned artist, writer, podcaster and TV host. He tells how as a child, he was made to believe he was destined for greatness but also that he was a complete disgrace, leading him to channel his energy—including deep shame—into art that brought him global recognition. He shares about his addictions that put him on a decades-long cycle of extreme highs and lows and that forced him to eventually acknowledge and heal the childhood trauma he was battling inside. David shows up with raw, authentic presence to show us how we can transmute pain and shame into our best creative work and, more importantly, how complete vulnerability, especially about our hardest experiences, is the ultimate tool for forgiveness and self-acceptance. He also tells us the actual story about early Facebook, Pee-wee Herman and Santa Claus. Note: This conversation includes topics and language that may not be suitable for younger audiences.

Today we're honored to welcome Stan Lai, one of the world's most celebrated playwrights and theatre directors. He has been called by one critic ‘the major contemporary Asian playwright of his time, perhaps of all time' and by the BBC ‘the best Chinese-language playwright and director in the world'. Stan's Website @Stanlai99 on Instagram Stan on YouTube Born in the U.S. and raised in both America and Taiwan, Stan earned his PhD from UC Berkeley before launching a groundbreaking career in Taiwan that now spans over 40 acclaimed plays, including masterpieces like A Dream Like a Dream and Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land. He's also the co-founder of the Wuzhen Theatre Festival and Huichang Theatre Village in China, and his Shanghai venue, Theatre Above, is dedicated entirely to his work.Stan joins us today to discuss his new book, CreativitRy: Asia's Iconic Playwright Reveals the Art of Creativity, coming in November 2025 from Anthem Press — a transformative guide that blends memoir, Buddhist philosophy, and practical methods for unlocking the creative potential that lives within each of us. https://a.co/d/56PRqeG5 QuestionsThe Source of CreativityStan, you've said that CreativitRy explores “where creativity lives — within each and every one of us.” How did your own creative process as a playwright and director lead you to this realization, and what inspired you to put these ideas into book form?From Stage to Page — Translating Art into InsightYour plays are known for their emotional depth and philosophical reach. How was writing about creativity — in prose rather than in performance — a different kind of creative act for you?Buddhist Wisdom and Creative FlowYou describe the book as rooted in Buddhist thought, guiding readers to unlock creativity through introspection rather than productivity hacks. How do mindfulness and spiritual awareness shape your own approach to artistic creation?Creativity as Education — A New FrontierCreativitRy is being adopted as the foundational text for a new Department of Creative Studies at major Chinese universities. How did that initiative come about, and what does it say about the growing importance of creativity in education and society today?The Universality of the Creative JourneyYou've been praised by artists like Ang Lee and Jack Ma for bridging the arts, business, and human growth. What do you hope readers — whether they're artists, entrepreneurs, or students — will take away from CreativitRy about living a truly creative life?Stan, as we close, what's one piece of advice you'd offer to someone who feels disconnected from their creativity — someone who wants to rediscover that creative energy in everyday life?Thanks to our sponsor, White Cloud Coffee — fueling creative conversations everywhere.
