What makes something entertaining? Is there such a thing as pure entertainment? Does it have different expectations than the art that is designed for different reasons? We take on these questions and more in this conversation. In this conversation, we focused on the "Popcorn Entertainment" of movies. What one film must deliver on versus another to meet the expectations of the audience and deliver...

Are you taking your space, allowing your voice to be heard and doing your thing fully? If not you may be apologizing by being smaller than you should be.

This is an artist wisdom series where we pull a quote from a famous artist. On this one, we chose Robert Frost, who said: "Anything more than the truth would be too much." Just a heads up... in the recording of this episode we had a few technical challenges from doing it remotely. It was still a very good conversation, so we still decided to release it, but we wanted to let you know, just so you w...

There is expansion into life or retraction from it. What path are you on? What path do you want to be on? In this episode, we take on our worst enemy... ourselves. Maybe you have heard this idea thrown around, but do you know how you could be working against yourself? Do you understand why you might do it? No person gets through life without having at least one confrontation with doubt. Those who...

You can learn how to do something, but there is a territory to explore beyond all that. Beyond the technique. It's in the doing of it, that you discover something... maybe yourself. In this talk, we explore that unknown area where the artist must go into to find out what they are really up to. The technique they learned may have helped them get there, but once they arrive it's suddenly all new onc...

How does confidence work? Do you ever feel like you could use more of it? We take on questions like this and dig into what confidence is and offer up a few interesting ways to look at it. Maybe confidence is something that goes through stages and we have to grow into it.

How do you do with being alone? Conscious solitude is an important part of an artist's journey since it gives us a break from being under the influence of outside things. The feelings of loneliness that may come up can cause us to avoid going off on our own, but we want to challenge this whole idea. No matter how alone we may seem to be, there is a connection to others we may not be aware of. We d...

There is a battle with the ego that every great person must face. There is this power that is within you that wants to create certain things, to do certain things, and when it is not honoured it can go from a creative energy to a destructive force. So how do you put your manufactured ego aside and honour your true self instead? You may have to go through the infamous ego death. To die to this thin...

A great way to start a conversation is to talk about movies that have impacted you in some form or another. In this discussion that's exactly what we chose to do. The talk led to some really cool places. With the context of a few movies, we were inspired to explore art and creativity in new ways. We also get into music and other creative mediums, including the artist's journey. It all relates and...

Whenever we set out to do something meaningful, that we truly care about, that matters to us, doubts will be following close behind. Maybe this is not such a bad thing, maybe instead, there I something to learn from them. When you are in a place of doubt you are likely thinking about yourself. An approach that can help is to put your focus on others and how you can contribute to them. By doing thi...

Instead of what are you working on, what's working on you? There is often more at play than we realize. As we are focused on doing our thing something is being built in the background of our lives. In this conversation, we get into the deeper connections that are always at play for a creative being. We are often completely unaware of them until one day we stop and see how much has happened without...
