    The Heart Comes Back - Episode 179

    In this solo episode, Taylor Church reflects on a season of reconnecting with longtime friends, traveling, and rediscovering gratitude for the relationships in his life. Those experiences lead into a deeper conversation about memory, heartbreak, healing, love, faith, self-worth, and the process of becoming who we want to be. One of the episode’s most compelling ideas comes from Taylor reflecting on a past relationship that once caused tremendous pain. Although the relationship still exists in his memories, the acute pain has largely disappeared. He questions whether he actually misses the person anymore—or whether he misses the memory of how that person made him feel. He ultimately explores the idea that sometimes it isn’t the original event hurting us anymore; it’s the way we’ve continued to carry the memory of it.

    Episode 174 | Alondra Uhi | Finding Your Medium: When Passion Finds You Back

    This episode features artist Alondra Uhi, who shares her journey from a storytelling-obsessed child to a professional oil painter specializing in fantasy and spiritually inspired artwork. She discusses how her early love of books and movies evolved into visual storytelling through art, her pivot away from digital illustration due to industry changes (including AI), and how she unexpectedly fell in love with oil painting during college. Alondra explains how she built her career through commissions—especially within fantasy fandoms—and how social media (particularly TikTok) helped her grow demand. She also touches on the emotional connection to her work, the challenge of selling pieces she loves, and her deeper purpose of creating art that inspires, uplifts, and connects—particularly highlighting women’s spiritual experiences.
