not every hobby has to be a money maker
Make time for the things you care about. Hobbies are important. Not every moment you spend in your life should be spent making money. Do your best to make some time for art that is purely for your own pleasure, enjoyment, release and/or self-expression.

Children Are Not A Retirement Plan
Just as you plan for every aspect of your life, so too must you plan for retirement. Children are a blessing, not a retirement plan or financial investment you should be expecting a return on. Feeling entitled to your children taking care of you in your old age is selfish. You chose to be a parent, be a parent. Allow your children to grow up without worrying about providing for you. Allow any financial gifts from your child be from love, not obligation and after being pressured.

Black Sheep, Unicorns & Breaking Generational Curses
What does it mean to say no to abuse in an abusive family? Being the one to change a family dynamic or break toxic emotional patterns takes a lot of strength and courage. Sometimes the person with that courage becomes the black sheep, exiled from the family because of a refusal to go along with the toxicity. There can be a high price to pay for standing up for what you believe in, including losing people who embrace their dysfunction over being healthy relationships. What is the impact on the mental health and on the lives, of those who choose to walk away from their abusive families? What is the cost of being the person who walks away?

As Artists, What Happens When We Change?
Do we make room for artists to change and explore who they are and what they most desire to create? Do we allow artists to create their own vibe/sound/aesthetic before calling them tired, over or overrated? Do artistic eras exist anymore? How has social media impacted the shelf life of work and our patience with artists' process? From discussing the pandemic's impact on the arts to talking about what it means to change/grow as an artist, listen up and let's chat.
