In The Car w/Hou: Soul - Houston's Got It
On this episode we introduce Hou to Kam Franklin, musician, song writer, activist & vocalist of The Sufferers AND The Outspoken Bean, Houston's former Poet Laurette, American Poet Laureate Fellow & Carnegie Hall performer. For today we ride over to Clutch City Coffee jumping right in, questioning whether or not social media is Montezuma’s revenge. Then we ask Bean - Are all poets romantics or activists? And for Kam - Are singers/musicians are always "ON"? Kam & Bean share their experiences on thriving and surviving as artists in America and that there’s nothing to lose in gifting your tools and knowledge to another aspiring poet or artist.

In The Car W/Hou: Fashion as a Force for Good
On this episode we introduce Hou to Sarah-Jayne & Ahshia from the nation’s only non-profit fashion house, Magpies & Peacocks, founded and located right here in Houston. For today’s drive we head to Wild cafe off Westhemier to dig into what it takes to build a proper fundraiser, the importance of telling your brand’s story to not just clients, but donors and we dive into whether or not all the consignment shops along Westheimer are sustainable. Later we hop back in the car to chat about New York VS Houston fashion, what your personal style says about you and knowing the difference between work and club attire.

In The Car W/Hou: Organized Likeminds
On today’s drive around Houston, we introduce Hou to some of Sesh’s longest standing clients - Bianka & Morgan. Bianka & Morgan began their memberships at Sesh in the fall of 2020 and became fast friends when they realized they both covered the walls at Sesh in post-it notes for content planning. On the drive to visit Tenfold Coffee on Yale we discuss whether hustle & grind culture is an internal or external influence, living by our calendars, the energy draining task switching and stretchy mindsets. Please note that later in today’s episode we do discuss personal trauma with being attack and domestic abuse. We have a trigger just ahead of that portion, so if it’s not for you today you can pause and take care.

In The Car W Hou: Eco-System Builders
Episode 3 of In the Car with Hou - Sesh Coworking's Dane & Maggie drive the streets of Houston channeling Houstonian energy & welcoming our first ever male guests to the show - Jan Odegard & Joey Sanchez, eco-system builders from heart of the Innovation District, The Ion.
Jan & Joey are familiar faces to the Midtown community - Jan, the Executive Director at The Ion & huge cheerleader to Sesh and Joey, a community builder & founder behind Cup of Joey, Houston Tech Rodeo & The Blue Tile Project. During our car ride we get intimate with the guys, learning what about Houston inspires them, discover our morning habits, and acknowledging Houston's secret sauce is the people. We discuss the allure to living in other places and how Houston seems to always call Houstonians back home. We touch on so many topics during this fun car ride around Houston - tattoos, Art Car, networking, Cup of Joey, traveling, driving culture in Houston, kolaches, and so much more!

In the Car w/Hou: The Art of the Matter
On this episode of In the Car with Hou - Sesh Coworking's Akosua & Maggie are joined by two Houston artists, Amy Malkan and Katharine Ligon.
Trigger Warning: As a heads up - we do discuss domestic abuse in today's episode. We want to be transparent about the content in case it's not your jam today. Please take care.
Amy & Katharine are both familiar faces to the Sesh community - Amy having painted both pinkie promise murals and Katharine having had her art work featured through Sesh's artist program twice. During our car ride we get intimate with both artists, learning about their creative processes, music choices, personal obstacles they've overcome - like surviving unhealthy relationships, a bombing at their studio and the death of not just one, but both parents. While this episode dives deeper into our complexities as individuals, we feel the acknowledgment of showing up with an entire biography is often overlooked. When safe spaces are provided and we get to share and acknowledge each other as artists, entrepreneurs, mothers, daughters, friends and all the other hats we wear - we truly get to the see depth of an individual's beautiful chaos.
