    The Left Bank Ep 00 - Introduction

    A brief overview of who I am, what this podcast is about and why I'm doing it. I attempt to be concise although there are many things to talk about. To sum up: my name is Connie, I am an artist and musician, thinking about the challenges of making a living, pursuing art, serving, and leading a fulfilling life. I will be having conversations with guests to discuss all of this and hopefully be smarter together.
