    #205- Managing Expectations (& adjusting when things don't go as planned)

    Sometimes, you have to drive back and forth from Wyoming for three straight days because of weather, pushing all your to-dos back.  Let's talk about addressing client needs, staying flexible, and managing our own expectations despite the curve balls that get thrown our way.  Plus, cats are mentioned at least twice and we have a super sweet pun run. Enjoy! Join the conversation! AKITApodcast@gmail.com, @kdzintars_art, @marisadzintars @aKickintheArts --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/akickinthearts/support

    #2-5 Origin Story

    So how does anyone get into their art anyway? What sort of education is ideal for artists? How do you decide when to go freelance? Kelsey and Marisa start from the beginning with their journeys, from childhood through the start of their professional work life.   Plus as always, a T&P segment for their take on "New Year, New You!" propaganda (spoiler: it's for the birds), and a seasonal pun run.  Follow us! @marisadzintars, @kdzintars_art, @AKickintheArts *Note from Marisa- In this episode, I reference my awe of my mother juggling three kids in all of our extracurricular activities. I'm referring to the three older sisters as we were closer in age and overlapping activities; I didn't mean to omit that she also had Alexa, 6 years my junior, in tow as well. Busy lady! I just felt the need to clarify that there are indeed four kids. :)  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/akickinthearts/support

    #2-4 Success!

    Sometimes, we actually feel successful! And it can actually be awkward to talk about. So let's talk about that. Does your work life achievements or failures affect your self worth? Let's talk about that too. Plus, Kelsey is painting her face off, Marisa makes strides in stand up, and as always, a Fair-ly cringy pun run. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/akickinthearts/support

    #2-3 Resistance during the Holidays

    The holiday season can be a huge distraction from our goals, so let's make a game plan to balance spirited indulgence and creative flow. Plus, Kelsey updates us on her marketing plan, and Jane Fonda throws shade at Marisa. And as always, a pun run that has you saying, "Birch, please." --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/akickinthearts/support

    #2-2 Pushing Through Rejection

    Artists and business owners ideally make big sales and achieve big results all the time, but how do you keep on it when you're lacking a "big win"? Sometimes you get flat out rejected, but should that stop you? Plus, Kelsey and Marisa celebrate Halloween, have a seasonal pun run, and check into their goals.

    #2-1 - Shameless Marketing for Artists

    Marketing is inevitable for any business, but let's approach it without feeling douchey. Catch up with Kelsey and Marisa as they get more specific with their artistic and business goals, hash out personal branding, and make fun of tech (and themselves) in this first episode of Season 2. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/akickinthearts/support

    Social Responsibilities as Artists- Bonus Summer Episode!

    As artists, how responsible are we for our audience? And do we have an obligation to use our talents for social change? Plus, updates on Kelsey's life as a river guide and Marisa's hustles. And it wouldn't be a Kick in the Arts without a "hand-y" pun run. (Body parts. The theme is body parts.) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/akickinthearts/support
