Wavy Days is the podcast you didn't know you were missing from your roster.
Allison James shares her life experiences as an artist and generally a person with too many feelings. She gives her insight and advice as a lover of business and ex-retail girl. And, maybe most often, she opens up as someone who can't seem to stop talking about themselves for the sake of your own growth, helping you work towards the version of yourself that you like the best.
You can find her words doled out with a loving edge and a lot of laughter. Because when things get tough, you better learn to ride the wave, baby!

46. Finding a full life: Agreeing to Do Your Best & Taking Action
This is what comes through when a really good self-development book rocks you in the most gentle way (file this under things I never thought I’d say). Enjoy this off the cuff episode where I encourage you to stop psyching yourself out and get busy. This minisode will go down as highly underrated yet highly effective. Go team!
Please rate and review the show if this episode spoke to you. Thank you in advance!

45. The Last 2 Months of Laggy Self worth, mega Self Sabotage and so. many. tips.
This episode is a good one. I get into what’s been going on the last two months (in the studio and in life) and how the solutions & takeaways I found can translate into getting YOU out of your own slump. Let’s call it the weather, let’s call it S.A.D. but whatever it is, we don’t have time for it -- bigger and better things lie ahead.
I also get into how I reinfused my practice with the nostalgic practices that made me so happy in 2018 & 2019, reconnecting with the daily habits that help hold me together and there’s even a few subpar jokes sprinkled in. You're welcome. Remember to rate & review the show if you loved this episode! Enjoy!

44. How personal discipline affects your success, stress levels and income
In today's episode I get you caught up on what my last few months of working for two shows (opening on the same day!) have been. Through this retelling, I offer up gallery insight, gauging your capacity to work and working smart during this busy season, cuting back on drinking and really taking this sh!t seriously!
I also give you tips for journaling for future you – let’s set you up for success, mentally and hey… maybe even physically.
PS: This episode was recorded on-the-go in my studio on my ol' iPhone (not my normal setup or mic) so I appreciate your understanding with the wonky audio!

Friend to Friend - November 2023
Friend to Friend is a monthly bonus episode released the last Sunday of each month. In these episodes, I answer the questions you've submitted anonymously on the air. Nothing is off limits --- Friend to Friend is the ultimate free advice segment.
This month is heavily based around artists getting stuck on 5 primary areas that I get asked about over and over again: how to work with galleries, how to choose materials, scheduling your studio time, maintaining motivation and finding purpose within your work.
Be warned: It gets a little spicy but I mean well. Let's dig in.

43. Recommitting to your priorities while navigating growth on the internet
In today's episode I theorize about the downfall of the internet, my commitment to always being at peace (no matter the cost, literally) and urge you to check-in and see what you want out of life today & the next few weeks. I also share my travel tips for my recent trip to Austin, Texas and why I can't wait to go back. There’s more topics to chew on than just these, per usual, so enjoy the ride!

Customer Reviews
Loving the Pod 🌊
I love listening to Allison’s creative process and business expertise. It is super helpful and inspiring as I build my own art business. It also includes great mindfulness and routine/ritual info. The combo of art, mindfulness, and business is perfection. Thanks Allison ☁️✨🫶🏻
Wrapped up in Wavy Days
As an artist, this podcast is like a comfortable blanket that I can wrap myself in when I’m feeling down about where I stand on my artistic journey. It confirms that I’m not alone on this journey and that the feelings I have are valid and relevant. I am not alone! Allison always put things in perspective for me and has nudged me along my journey. Thanks for always sharing the good, the bad and and the less than wonderful moments of your creative life. Sharing is caring!
Love her!
Creatives can really get in our own heads sometimes and Allison just gets it and isn’t afraid to talk about it with honesty and a plan. Highly recommend!
