Marginalia #2: How Not To Scratch the Soil Postpartum Production

- Arts
Hello, dear listener, and welcome back to Postpartum Production! We are thrilled to begin Season 3 of the podcast, and to be in community with you once again.
Before we kick off Season 3, Kaitlin checks in to provide an update on the podcast, a peek into what we’ll be exploring together this season (more on that in a moment!), and some heartfelt reflections on the never-ending challenges of balancing creative work, caregiving, and commerce. How can we create art while paying the bills? How do we play the long game of sustainability, while also living in the present? How does one do it “all” and, as importantly, when?
These are questions caregivers, creatives, and those of us just trying to make it work in a capitalist society wrestle with daily. While answers may not be simple, we at Postpartum Production hope to provide you with the tools, inspiration, and support you need as we continue this ongoing pursuit of meaning, impact, and value together as a community.
So, what’s in store for Season 3? Get ready for fascinating, powerful conversations as we speak with artists across genres and mediums- painters, poets, comics, and creatives of all kinds- about the intersection of Birth and Creativity. We delve into the profound connection between the body, the birthing process and the artistic journey, exploring how the transformative experiences of birth inspire and shape creative expression. We can't wait to share these conversations with you.
Lastly, we would love to hear from you: the questions you’re struggling to answer, the tough topics you feel deserve discussion and debate, or just simply what you are experiencing in this moment. Reach out to us any time via our Website, Instagram, or Substack.
We appreciate your support and look forward to continuing our journey together this season.
