    EP 20: Jenny Vu-A Journey To Success From A Problem Child

    Episode 20: The Journey To Success From A Problem Child Jenny admits she has not always followed the rules. She dropped out of college the first time around but went back, fixated on achieving success. The journey to success continues on a long and sobering road for this graphic designer and marketing business owner. Trusting that she had taken the proper steps to position herself on a no-contest track to business success, she quickly realized that life after college is not all it’s cracked up to be in the business world. She shares her volunteering experiences and interviewing burnout and reminisces about how easy it is to get caught up in thinking the road to success would be formulaic. She recalls the parade of successful individuals presented as the status quo as long as she followed a list of sure-fire steps to success. She followed them all with zest!  But Jenny found disappointment. Her experiences as a female who is often mistaken for a male, grief from a breakup with her long-time love, covid-isolation and volunteer burnout showed her that there is much more to consider than some strategic list. Now, the cost is high for this twenty-eight-year-old as she plans a cross-country move.  It hasn’t always been easy to keep her head held high once success didn’t arrive immediately as expected. Still, instead of allowing cognitive distortions to cloud her thinking, Jenny consciously focuses on daily gratitude and hopes this move will inspire continued momentum for her personal growth, meaningful experiences, and achievement in her new version of success.

    EP 13: Tom Grantis - The Journey Of Life Holds Many Surprises

    Welcome to the podcast A Living Library, where we have creative conversations. It's a journey involving discussions to process resiliency, an exchange of discovery and healing, and talks among friends to open ears and eyes.  I am your Host Rhiannon Barry, a visual artist, story-teller, community-minded volunteer, creative wellness retreat coordinator. I have a diploma in community service work, studied journalism- communications, and am currently taking professional development courses in psychology counselling and art therapy. Join me and my special co-hosts and guests as we share stories and exchanges energy in mutual respect with individuals from all walks of life.   Website: https://bewhimsiartloft.ca/creative-conversations  https://www.facebook.com/groups/403290106358914  https://www.facebook.com/livinglibraryandresilency  https://www.instagram.com/rhiannonbarryart/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/cr8tive_convo_podcast/?hl=en Be A Guest Email: artbyrhiannonbarry@gmail.com   My guest today is Tom Grantis. Tom says it comes down to the 10,000-hour rule and attributes his artistic growth to having a ton of free time to practice drawing during the Covid-19 social restrictions. He had been a school teacher and coach who lived a typical life. The term retirement had meant something different to Tom than it had meant to many in the generation before him. No, he did not long for long days filled with relaxation, crossword puzzles and planting marigolds.  Instead, he sought new interesting hobbies like novel and screenplay writing and taking art classes.  Tom began drawing from a creative pool buried under years of hockey bags and grading matrixes. A sketch class in Port Colborne brought out a gift that Tom could never have imagined would end up filling his leisure years. With a particular interest in the life of art masters and a keen eagerness to gain knowledge of art history, this Creative is diving deeper into his new hobby.  He is excited to explore unique ideas for wildlife portraits too. Now Tom creates detailed and moving images of people and pets. His piece titled  ‘Resolve’  is currently showing in the St. Catharines City Hall art exhibit. His transition from athlete and teacher to Artist has been swift and successful. He is now venturing into commission work and new opportunities to exhibit.
