    Creative Engagement Christine Blosdale The Expert Authority Coach

    Engage with us via Text Message! From the very first moment, Christine Blosdale captured my attention! As I’ve been hosting this podcast for five years, I’ve received many requests from potential guests to be interviewed. I share this because I’m proud that I’ve created a program that people find valuable. I’ve also been fortunate and grateful that I haven’t found myself at odds with more than a couple potential guests. When I saw that Christine’s podcast is called the Expert Authority Coach, my instincts told me to pause and think, “Wait a minute!” The words “Expert” and “Authority” might just be red flags. So, I asked Christine a few more questions, and I’m so glad I did. I was thrilled to discover that beneath these seemingly questionable terms lies a warm invitation to explore confidence and authenticity, all while ensuring that each of us is recognized and valued for our unique contributions. I challenged myself to bring Christine on the program to step outside my comfort zone, and I’m glad I did.  Christine’s book is titled: The Social Media and Branding Survival Guide: Digital Marketing So Irresistible, Even Your Ex Will Want To Follow You https://amzn.to/4cgYMMy To find out more about Christine: http://www.expertauthoritycoach.com/ Book a FREE Expert Authority Evaluation - http://FreeExpertAuthorityCall.com If you enjoyed this podcast please give us a rating and write a review where you listen to podcasts.

    Encouragement Session Zacha Belok Leadership Coach, Facilitator, Somatic Practioner

    Engage with us via Text Message! Walking my guest, Zacha Belok, through this Encouragement Session, I felt a wave of hope wash over me. Zacha is a leadership coach, facilitator, and somatic practitioner whom I met at a Billy retreat. He was leading a multi-day workshop, and I could tell he had a deep understanding and a wealth of experience. What truly fills me with hope is Zacha’s honesty. It’s so rare in our modern world when leaders and teachers feel the pressure to be experts and have all the answers. Zacha brings a profound awareness that he’s guiding participants into new and innovative experiences, leading from a place of honesty and a willingness to learn. So, in encouraging Zacha, I feel uplifted by his honesty, wisdom, and reminded that my own process is to discover encouragement with each conversation.  For more information visit: https://zachabelokcoaching.com/ If you enjoyed this podcast please give us a rating and write a review where you listen to podcasts.

    Creative Engagement William Jaquet Musician Singer Songwriter

    Engage with us via Text Message! I found myself at a retreat in Devon, in the UK seated at a long table next to a wonderful singer songwriter William Jaquet, I knew I should invite him to be on this program right away. William is a very warm and friendly presence and on this rainy storm night we found a relatively quiet space to capture this conversation. I had heard William play in the evening the night before without knowing until later that he’s been a part of the band Luvcat on tour, and that he’s been writing and recording with his own band Big Society. Just hearing William’s beautiful voice with an acoustic guitar was quite a rich experience, I knew there must be a wonderful story lurking in there somewhere. I always end my interviews with words of encouragement from my guests and thankfully William allowed me to tease him a bit, because as you will hear I needed to hold his feet to the fire to get him to look beyond the grind of getting to a really well written song and to think of the miracles and benefits of investing in creativity. To me this speaks to his devotion to holding himself accountable and wanting to keep the bar as high as possible.  To find out more about William’s bands and music go to: Here’s the instagram for William's new act - https://www.instagram.com/beatendocket/ Here’s the instagram for William's band - https://www.instagram.com/thebigsocietyband/ If you enjoyed this podcast please give us a rating and write a review where you listen to podcasts.

    Creative Engagement Gavin Goska Songwriter, Composer Midnight Syndicate

    Engage with us via Text Message! My guest Gavin Goska is a wonderful explorer of genres and his interview is a bookend interview with Ed Douglas as they together make up Midnight Syndicate. I’m really captivated by the kindness and thoughtfulness of Gavin Goska. It is so fascinating to hear how Gavin approaches creating mysterious and frightening scores for imagined movies! As you might guess, Gavin’s talents extend beyond composing and playing multiple instruments. He’s also explored restoring Victorian homes and creating early classical compositions. It’s wonderful to have conversations like this with Gavin, learning how he approaches each project, what’s known, and what’s unknown. I have a feeling that whatever Gavin focuses on, it will be delightful, and we can all learn from his approach and his willingness to tackle each project. Gavin is another example of finding his own unique work-life balance through imagining possibilities and bringing them to life through his artistic expression.  For more information on Gavin: https://gavingoszka.com/ If you enjoyed this podcast please give us a rating and write a review where you listen to podcasts.

    Creative Engagement Ruven Hannah Solo Performer, Storyteller

    Engage with us via Text Message! I have known my guest Ruven Hannah for many years through the Billys organization in Northern California. I have seen Ruven’s performance art and recently witnessed Ruven focusing on pure storytelling. I did not know what  international experiences had played a part in Ruven’s creativity until he explained the circumstances of moving from Israel to England  and then the United States. Along his adventures Ruven displays an amazing gift of “going for it” experimenting and trying out different modes of expression that paved the way from Puppetry to Performance Art and ultimately storytelling.  To find out more visit: https://www.instagram.com/ruven.hannah/ https://www.threads.com/@ruven.hannah?
