    Ep48. dividends & the business brain of the creative enterpriser

    There’s a false split between being artistic and being business-minded. That split costs you money, freedom, and a bigger life. In this episode, I make the case for a third identity — the creative enterpriser— and share why the people who excel and thrive are the ones who learn to build, sell, and create at the same time. I also share the moment this clicked for me in Mexico City, and how it helped me recognize the entrepreneurial instincts I’d had all along. If you’ve ever felt torn between creative expression and financial ambition, this episode is for you.

    Ep47. diversify your social microbiome

    In this episode, we're diversifying our social microbiome. We're talking about why your social life deserves to be one of your top priorities — not just for dating, but for your friendships, your family, your career, your whole existence. We introduce some new lexicon (get ready for "social sauerkraut" and "social solar systems"), and we break down why people take you places, why the best way to meet people is through people, and why leaning too hard on your partner to meet every social and emotional need will backfire. We get nuanced about the difference between having healthy boundaries and becoming a social germaphobe, and we make the case for tolerating a little dissonance in your social sphere because that's genuinely good bacteria. We also take a journey through my own social evolution — from misidentifying as an extrovert throughout my 20s, to the social overextension that fed into a full-blown burnout, to the contraction and reclusing that followed, to where I'm at now: back out on the scene with a sense of healthy limits this time. It's a stream-of-consciousness one, and I hope you enjoy floating through it with me. Want to go deeper? Social Sphere, my full nine-module course on expanding and enriching your adult social life, lives inside both Magnetics Love School and Turned On. Enrollment is open July 20–27, but you can join the waitlist now: Magnetics Love School waitlist / Turned On waitlist. Waitlisters also get a coupon code for July's Communication Lab.

    Ep46. "on tour " vs "in the studio": a case for long solo road trips

    Welcome back, Pillow Talkers! In this episode, I share stories from various long solo road trips I've taken around the United States, including a recent three week West Coast tour. We discuss how these long solo road trips fuel my creative process and work, satisfy the core emotional need for variety and novelty, and ultimately serve my rooting and cultivating time at home. We chat about this concept of the different work modes of being "on tour" vs "in the studio," and how this duality is the spice of a creatively satisfying life. Subscribe to (Play)field Notes here.
