In the debut episode of "How Did I Get Here?", we unravel the beginning of a relationship that felt like fate—but turned out to be something else entirely. Was it love, or a carefully crafted illusion? "The Hook – How He Got Her" explores the thin line between attraction and manipulation, revealing how easy it is to get caught in something you never saw coming.

This interview on the DiepCJourney podcast is with three nationally known medical tattoo artist. It will also be available on the DiepCFoundation educational YouTube channel for viewing. Our conversation today is on medical tattooing with three of the leading medical tattoo artists in the United States. I begin with the President and founder of AMT, The Alliance of Medical Tattooing, Ms. Nicole Rizzuto, a licensed tattoo artist and I speak to her about her vision and why she created AMT. Next is Christina Siegel who is a registered nurse and licensed tattoo artist and is the vice-president of AMT. Last and certainly not least, is the medical tattoo artist in our beautiful city of Seattle, WA., Mr. Eric Eye. Eric and I are both advisory board members of AMT. As a two-time cancer survivor who had successful DIEP flap breast reconstruction after a double mastectomy, I wanted “body art,” a story, a strong reminder of who I am, what I do, and a symbolic message to celebrate my own personal Journey through breast cancer. When I describe this as body art, it is much more that that because I went to a medical tattoo artist. I chose Eric Eye because of his artistic background, credentials and someone who works with breast cancer patients. Going to a tattoo artist is an emotional process that is transformative, having a profound impact on breast cancer survivors. In a recent cross-sectional study, the researchers examined the relationship between medical tattooing as a complementary cosmetic intervention and body-image distress and mental health outcomes among breast cancer survivors following surgery. The findings show medical tattooing may be a valuable tool in improving body-image distress and mental health for those who wish to pursue it. The study also states more research is needed. We discuss the services medical tattoo artists provide, safe practices and what patients should be asking for, the planning and shared decision-making conversations with your medical tattoo artist, and how each of them finds balance in this work of passionate care for breast cancer patients. Please view their work on their websites and social media channels, especially Instagram.

Look for the helpers. It's a simple axiom meant to comfort small children, a reminder to find supportive adults in times of distress. But good advice doesn't stop being good just because we've aged out of the original target audience. Adults need helpers, too. David Allen is an absolute gem of a helper, an art director turned tattoo artist who works with post-mastectomy clients in Chicago. While breast cancer survivors aren't the whole of his business, David gratefully acknowledges the indelible mark that these warriors have left on his personal life and professional outlook. GUEST BIO David Allen is a Chicago-based tattoo artist known for his bespoke floral designs that transform mastectomy scars into powerful expressions of healing and renewal. With a deep respect for each client's voice and story, David approaches tattooing as a collaborative process — one that centers agency, artistry, and emotional care. His work is rooted in compassion, intention, and connection. Authentic Leaders Group  Are you a therapist stepping into leadership for the first time?

"Embodiment is sort of a phase beyond words where an experience, or maybe it's not a singular experience, maybe it just eases into you over time, but you feel like it's a part of you." "It's almost like God or the creator gives you complete enlightenment upon birth, then through existing on in a physical domain, you slowly lose it." "I've sacrificed my morals, I've sacrificed time with my children, I've sacrificed my health, I've sacrificed nurturing my relationship with my wife." "It was kind of like the universe knocking on my door. Like, we have this for you. Do you, you know, it's custom made for you. Do you want it?" "I can almost guarantee you, you're going to grow. But I need you to understand the reason you're going to grow is because this shop is profitable." "There's no need for anger or resentment. There really isn't." "Money can buy freedom. Money can buy creativity. Money can buy space to explore these things." "Ultimately, I believe we exude a frequency, a signature. And I think that that signature attracts that same signature closer to you." "I just want to create love and friendship and beauty and art, and I can't seem to escape these type of people in my life." "As soon as you can see the wound, from that day forward, it starts to heal." "The best part about getting tattooed has nothing to do with the tattoo. It's more so like the transformation that kind of goes through having to sit through that process."

The tattoo industry has always been about overcoming obstacles, but few challenges hit as hard as finding the right space to call home. When we caught up with Robyn and Ty Pallotta at the Star of Texas Tattoo Convention, their story of facing 20+ rejections from property managers struck a chord that many artists can relate to.  Their journey from a private studio to fighting antiquated lease stipulations highlights the evolving landscape of our industry in growing cities like Austin. As veterans know, sometimes in tattooing, the biggest battle isn't creating the art—it's finding walls to hang it on.

In this episode of "Chats and Tatts," host Aaron Della Vedova delves into the rich Polynesian history and evolution of tattooing as an art form witth guest Leland Gomez. Leland reflects on his own experience with old-school apprenticeship, sharing insights about the hands-on skills he learned, such as scrubbing tubes and tuning coil machines. They discuss the cultural significance of tattoos across various regions, highlighting how styles are deeply rooted in their respective cultures—from the traditional tattoos of Samoa and Africa to the unique genre of Japanese tattoos. This episode emphasizes the transformative power of tattooing and its ongoing evolution as a global art form, showcasing the beauty and importance of this ancient practice.

"We get to wear our inside out when we wear our Polynesian culture on our skin." "How is anything going to get better if you stay in the same place?" "I think there's a cultural need as the world evolves and technology just rams forward into our existence, that there is this calling to humanity for certain people to go back to the roots." "Teaching is sort of that, that last part of a master's journey. And it's also the part where you give back to something that's given you so much." "Maybe my grandkids can see it and be like, hey man, my pops, my papa did that."

The intersection of technology and tattooing has always fascinated me, which is why I was particularly excited to dive into a recent conversation with Russ Abbott about the evolution of Tattoo Smart. From its humble beginnings as a digital marketplace in 2016 to its current position at the forefront of tattoo design innovation, Russ's journey reflects the larger transformation happening in our industry.  What started with simple brush sets and digital palettes has evolved into something far more revolutionary - especially with their latest venture into 3D modeling for tattoo design. But this story isn't just about new tools; it's about how the tattoo industry adapts and grows while staying true to its artistic roots. Thanks for supporting what we do, and we hope you enjoy!

 Oregon has a rich tattoo history, from indigenous practitioners to sailors. And Oregon newspapers have run stories about tattoos since the early 20th century. Within the state you can see all styles represented, from American traditional to fine lines and realism.  There is no shortage of inked skin in the state, but as data obtained by OPB from OHA's Board of Electrologists and Body Art Practitioners show, the number of tattoo artists has skyrocketed since the pandemic. From 2019 to 2024, Oregon saw a 77% increase in the number of tattoo licenses at the state level. What does this increase mean for the industry and what was it about the pandemic that created this spike in numbers? To answer these questions and more we’ll hear from Chris Clark and Alia Bird, co-owners of Birdhouse Tattoo in Portland, and Seth Rowan, owner of the Bend Tattoo Company.

In this episode of The Zac Clark Show, Zac sits down with renowned tattoo artist and sculptor Julius Margulies, a.k.a. Snuffy, to explore his powerful story of recovery and artistic transformation. Snuffy, who has inked celebrities like Pete Davidson and Machine Gun Kelly, shares how his creative explosion post-recovery helped him break free from past struggles.  With his unique approach to tattoo design, requiring clients to submit personal stories or essays before he creates custom, meaningful artwork, Zac and Julius dive deep into the role of art in healing, mental health, the importance of self-expression, and how recovery and the creative process can go hand-in-hand.
