Hobbies, burnout, and staying motivated
This week we take a trip into our podcasting archives and revel in the growth we have achieved so far. We discuss how we stay motivated and keep showing up to a creative project when it doesn't have all the new project shine.

social media, vulnerability, and hiding behind a project
Social media is all about sharing parts of ourselves, but what does it mean to share part of ourselves without a project to hide behind? Today we are chatting about feeling vulnerable, choosing what to share, and podcasting without a project.

mindfulness, marketing & mental health
Often, our creative time is our anchor in an otherwise busy day, a moment of peace and mindfulness to centre ourselves. But what if our mindful & sefl care doesn't look like it "should"? If it doesn't fit in a neat little box? Today we chat about the influence of marketing a specific idea of mindfulness & self care, and how it shows up in creative spaces...and what we choose to do instead.

creativity, identity and zombies
Our identity as crafters & creative folk is shaped by so many influences, and today we are unpacking where we "fit",and end up starting to prepare our bug out bags for the zombie apocolypse...things got a little unhinged along the way!
