    “Local Heroes” with gough (GWTW794)

    Here to celebrate his 20th appearance on Getting Work To Work and his latest film, Local Heroes, is the self-described king of the jungle, gough. As a writer, producer, director, and actor for BeernutsProductions.com, gough always finds a way to not only make me laugh, but also inspire me to create meaningful work. In our conversation, we begin with a lightning round of questions about Australia's wildlife. We also talk about his uncanny ability to recall details throughout his life, bad advice his guidance counselor gave him, important ways for actors to push the boundaries of their craft, and several behind the scenes stories of Local Heroes and the Beernuts Productions podcast.

    Be Where Discovery Can Happen (GWTW793)

    As long as I can remember, I've been intrigued with exploration. Growing up in the middle of nowhere, exploring the woods around the house was just the beginning. The starry nights captured my imagination, the road atlas showed how to get around the surrounding areas, and the globe revealed everything else. But exploration comes in multiple flavors because I should also mention the digital discoveries made in the 1990s through the personal computing, World Wide Web, and smart phone revolutions. As I get older, discovery looks a lot different. Sure, I want to see the world and experience as much as I can, but there are also discoveries to be made deep within myself. Not to mention the way work comes to life when you turn down the distractions and tune in to the resonate tones of mastery. In today's episode of Getting Work To Work, I want to dive into the topic of exploration in our craft, and how being in the right place at the right time, can change everything.

    Healing Your Broken Creativity (GWTW792)

    What do you do when your creativity is broken? On top of that, what do you do when you rely upon your creativity to make a living? Earlier this year, my creativity not only cracked, but shattered into a million pieces. I paused all my side projects, calling it creative hibernation. I kept producing work for my recurring clients to the best of my ability, but also got a job to help pay bills. As I talked with people about what I was going through, the messages I received went something like this: "Me too, I'm glad I'm not the only one." In this episode of Getting Work To Work, I'm going to explore how my broken creativity manifests itself, and the tiny action steps I'm taking to put it all back together again.

    “Handcrafting Meaning & Change” with Rebecca van Bergen (GWTW791)

    What are the big questions that drive your mission and life's work? Are you someone who focuses on finding solutions to the massive problems in the world or someone who wants to be the very best at your craft? In today's episode of Getting Work To Work, I explore not only the big, philosophical questions that drive social entrepreneurship, but also the everyday stories and steps we can take to make a difference. Rebecca van Bergen is the Founder and Executive Director of Nest, "a nonprofit that understands the importance of handcraft and the meaning it can hold for every life it touches." In our conversation, Rebecca shares her origin story of founding Nest and why she felt the need to support artisans and makers around the world. We touch on the role curiosity plays in social entrepreneurship, the fact that everyone is connected to craft, the relationship between automation and the need for uniqueness, imposter syndrome, and how Nest continually develops programs that are human-centered and focused on real change. Most importantly, she shares stories that illustrate just how impactful the work of Nest is around the world.

    Microcosmic Lessons (GWTW790)

    It's been a month since the last episode of Getting Work To Work. Every time I sat down to write, nothing came, so I said, "Maybe next week?" Eventually, I gave myself some grace and trusted that when something needed to be said, it would show up. And it finally did, yesterday, on a forklift, in the early morning hours. After finishing my work, I scribbled down some notes, mainly tiny lessons I have learned about myself and others over the past few weeks. I'm going to share these with you, with the hopes that maybe these small lessons are actually bigger than they appear. But we'll let purposeful action and the cascading nature of time be the judge.

    “How About Now?” with gough (GWTW789)

    Today's guest needs no introduction because he's been on the show 19 times now, but I'm going to do one anyway. A legally blind filmmaker from Australia, gough is on Getting Work To Work to talk about his latest film, The Harsh Reality of Re-enactment Acting. We discuss his inspiration for the film, how he used editing techniques to land some jokes, and insights into the actors and the Beernuts Productions family. We also talk about the most recent episode of his podcast where he answers questions from social media including several from yours truly, why the best creative work takes longer than you think it will, fixing problems instead of shelving projects, and what goes into creating a budget for a film.

    “Creativity is Everything We Do” with Tony Luna (GWTW788)

    I believe that conversations find us when we need them most. Tony Luna is a creative consultant, educator, author, and producer who helps emerging and mid-career creatives to discover and reinvigorate the work that ignites the flame of their soul. In our conversation, we touch on Tony's lifelong study and pursuit of creativity. He shares numerous stories that touch on the beauty of failure, the importance of cross-discipline collaboration, why mistakes are necessary, and how we can keep our creativity alive throughout our entire creative journey. Regardless of where you find yourself in your career, it is my hope that Tony's wisdom will build a bridge between where you are today and where you want to go tomorrow.

    Quick Hits of Inspiration (GWTW787)

    What do you do for fun? How does that connect to your own curiosity and search for inspiration? Recently, a coworker asked me what I do for fun and I didn't like any of my answers. I think I cracked a joke about working all the time, but also said I enjoyed watching movies, listening to music, and watching the Cleveland Guardians. Pretty lame, I know, but it's also a critical indicator of just how empty my tanks are when it comes to creativity and curiosity. So, in preparation for this episode, I decided to turn on some good music, cue up the latest mini doc from one of my favorite creators, and browse my bookshelves for some quick hits of inspiration. Thankfully, it worked. I'm going to share a few things I explored, but also a few tips if you find yourself in the same position as myself.
