Why Your 20s Suck, Twisty Paths + Mental Health & Meds w/ Unleash AP, Emily Shulmanovich Apr 14, 2021

Show notes

Today you'll hear from a producer, DJ and actress who has become vitally important to both me and the show. Her name is Emily Shulmanovich! Emily is my mentee and the associate producer of Unleash Your Inner Creative, as well as a dear friend. I think it's important for you to know the humanity and creative journey of the other person who is pouring her heart into the content each week. This chat is fun/funny, emotional, raunchy (at times), helpful and inspirational. Truly representative of our relationship and a more informal chat than you'd typically hear here week to week, yet with just as much takeaway and info to help you on your creative journey!

It's friendship chat and real talk about:

-Why your 20s are not the bliss the media projects (and how to make it through)

-Why "find your passion" can be a trigger phrase

-The art of the twisty path

-The role mental health and medication can play in finding purpose

-Tips for people suffering with anxiety and depression

-Why getting fired can be the biggest blessing

-What it feels like when you're finally on purpose

-Generational trauma and how it manifests

-Being first generation and how that affects the dreams you'll consider for yourself

-Giving up on your childhood dreams only to have them find you again

-The role romantic relationships can play in finding our creative path

-How to embrace change as good and exciting

-And, perhaps most importantly, why you should always use the pelvic floor when trying to project, vocally

All this and so much more!
