Getting Unstuck In Your Life with Lewis Howes Oct 23, 2019

Show notes

Ever felt STUCK with something in your life? Blocked, like you can't get past this mental state, this hurdle, this creative block, this bad habit, this… Wait a minute. Why am I even asking that question? Of course you've been stuck before. We've literally ALL been stuck before. And by extension we all know how much it sucks to be in this state of mind. AND – on the flipside – how amazing it is when you can reclaim your life and get back to the things you want to be thinking, doing, and becoming. I'm obsessed with overcoming the mental blockers that try to keep me down – and I think it's been a big piece of my personal success. Which is why I thought this little nugget might help.

Creator Therapy with Seth Godin in New York Oct 16, 2019

Show notes

Super pumped for this week's podcast... If you happened to miss yours truly + Seth Godin on my tour stop in New York a few weeks ago, here it is.

Of course, the title "Creator Therapy" is a little tongue and cheek. Seth and I gathered with about 120 other creators for a conversation on creativity, creative blocks, and taking that next step. Seth is a sage as always. Super grateful to share the stage and soak in some of his wisdom.

Hope you enjoy the conversation, and please be sure to give a shout out to Seth on the socials if you received some value.

Raising Rates & How to Create Your Niche Oct 02, 2019

Show notes

There are two things that I love sharing more than anything else. Margaritas and answers to your creative questions. I couldn't figure out how to get margaritas into your ears this week, but we've got some fantastic questions from The Daily Creative (my YouTube show where I answer YOUR questions about the challenges you're facing on your journey to become an aspiring or professional creative) and some of my favorite answers from the show.

In this episode:

Eric worked on a project with a bit of scope creep - which he completed, but thinks he under priced. Now a new project is coming down the pipeline and he's wondering how can he raise his rates with the same client.
Kelley's main gig is working as a designer, but he's most passionate about music and would love to find some audio engineering work. He's wondering how can he combine both.

I Should Be Dead - A Day That Changed My Life Forever Sep 16, 2019

Show notes

As we move through life, it's easy to see how really big events— the births of our kids, a diagnosis, the loss of a job, or a close call with death—grab our attention and force us to take stock. But in reality the call that we're meant to heed—the wake-up call—is always there for us, if we're just willing to listen more carefully.

The Soulful Art of Persuasion with Jason Harris Sep 11, 2019

Show notes

As creators and entrepreneurs, getting our ideas out in the world is critical. And today, I have my long time friend Jason Harris in the hot seat to help us with just that. Jason is the founder and CEO of the award winning creative agency Mekanism. He is one of Creativity Mag's most creative people in business, Top 100 People Who Make Advertising Great and about 52 other awards in the creative space. You've certainly seen his work if you've watched Superbowl commercials or heard of Peloton, Ben & Jerrys, HBO, and more. He also is one of the people that I look up to as a model of giving back. He donates a huge amount of his time to causes in which he believes and uses his marketing savvy for doing good in the world. I'm super inspired by our conversation today for so many reasons, but here's handful to whet your palette:

Of course we get into his new book The Soulful Art of Persuasion, in which Jason breaks down the art of sharing our ideas in an honest and authentic ways
We talk about the ups and downs living life identifying as a professional creator, including the internal pressure many of us have to never be satisfied - and the fear we sometimes have around our work.
File under funny: Jason's love for the band KISS. Not because they are masterful musicians but because they built their success as one of the most successful rock bands of all time on a battery of tools BEYOND just music such as storytelling, lore, and -yes- persuasion.
and of course much more….

Enjoy!
