    A Sustainable Life in Opera w/ Sarah Joy Miller

    Few have navigated opera's evolving landscape quite like Sarah Joy Miller. In this candid conversation, Sarah reveals how the art form’s rigid traditions are giving way to a new, more creative era.  At the core of this episode is the profound idea that opera is the “journey of the heart, mind, and soul”- a slice of art that demands both technical mastery and emotional depth. We break down how traditional standards like the Fach system are giving way to a more fluid approach to casting, and why today’s artists are blending genres - from pop to musical theater - in pursuit of wider audiences and sustainability. Sarah shares her firsthand experience navigating the unpredictable world of major companies like the Met, and how she’s built a career crossing mediums.

    Jealousy: The Good, The Bad, and the (Really) Ugly

    Most creatives feel the sting of jealousy more often than they admit - if only because society rewards winning, validation, and "success." Whether it’s jealousy of a friend’s bigger role, a colleague’s validation, or the perceived unfairness of the industry, this emotional tide can feel overwhelming.  But what if jealousy isn’t just a destructive force? What if it’s actually a window into what you truly want - and a tool for growth? The boys peel back the layers of jealousy, revealing how it’s often rooted in comparison, scarcity mindset, or unmet needs.  Join our Patreon for ad-free early access to episodes, exclusive discounts, weekly Q&As, and so much more.  Visit https://www.patreon.com/CreativeRiskPodcast today!Submit your story to Raw & Rising, the mini-series spotlighting hustling creatives—those self-producing, diversifying their income, and tackling challenges head-on.
