    Danielle Kalish - Plot Twist Proud

    Oh friends, I have the best season finale yet for you- a beyond fitting conversation between two multi-passionate creatives that have a love for music, the nineties, and all things beautiful. I am so beyond excited to introduce you to Danielle Kalish.  Danielle is the mind and creative force behind Abode by Parklyn and Parklyn Interiors (and current poster child of the plot twist). After 15 years of introducing herself as a member of corporate life, allow her to proudly reintroduce herself as entrepreneur babyyy! She's creating not only beautiful spaces, but an intentional place + community hub for designers, window shoppers, and fans of unique finds alike. Abode is a space that allows you to step into her world (trust me, you'll want to move in immediately), soak up the tunes, and then take that renewed inspiration spark back to your own neck of the woods.  This meeting of the minds felt like a long time coming, and even after two hours together I couldn't get enough of our conversation. I hope you enjoy this chapter of The Creative Plot, and I can't wait to see you again soon for Season 3....   Where & How to find Danielle: On Instagram- @abodebyparklyn @parklyninteriors

    Who Are You Following & Where Are They Going?

    Ok friends- it had to be done. I'm stealing the mic for a solo SKC yap about something I think is plagueing us all (whether we recognize it or not).    Who are you following- and where are they going? We all know that saying "You're most like the 5 people you spend your time with", but in today's day and age we're spending more time with someone virtually- and 80% of the time we don't even know them in real life. I read a crazy statistic the other day that stopped me in my tracks and had me even more in my feels than I had been lately about this wild world of influence and content, and I just knew it needed to be a conversation with Y O U.   So tune in, get curious, and then continue the conversation: I'd love to hear from you if this has been something you've noticed, what your feelings or observations are after taking a listen, and how you plan to take up intentional space in the algorithm of your life...

    Emily Broadbent - A Passion for Business, Photography, & Crispy Diet Coke

    How would Emily Broadbent introduce herself? Well, in her words: "It's kind of a long story, and how'd I even get here, and it's insane."   In my words? May I present Emily Broadbent- The President of Plot Twists, and an artist in her own way. An ever-passionate business woman who isn't afraid to love her family and love making money. (and no friends, there's no shame in that!)  She lived through the entrepreneurs dating game and has found her happily ever after in the world of Wedding Photography and the incredible community she serves and inspires through her work. From a meal planning system, pillow covers, and digital scrapbooking to blogs and baby photography, she's walked the walk- and her shoe collection is proof she does it in style.    You don't necessarily have to find "balance", friends, or fall into a definition of success that suits someone else's life- tune in and learn how Emily finds harmony and pivots to be present for her family, her clients, her businesses, and her dreams. You're allowed to have business seasons, family seasons, and seasons for yourself (I mean, every good TV show does!) and your next best idea or evolution could be right around the corner.    For the true Emily experience- before you tune in, grab a crispy diet coke, a handful of pink starbursts, and your Chick-Fil-A....   Where & How to find Emily: On Instagram- @emilybroadbentphotography   On the Web- Emily Broadbent Photography Landlocked Luxury 20th Street Studios

    Morgan Baldwin - Serifs, Silhouettes, & The Power of Self-Expression

    In this episode, I get to sit down with a true creator- someone who sees fashion and art not as a set of rules, but as a fluid, evolving expression of self. She's a serif. A fashion enthusiast. A creative force.   May I present, Morgan Baldwin. She is an associate creative director for Neiman Marcus, but I'm sure after reading the above you already know she's so much more....   We dive into the power of personal style, the freedom of dressing for yourself (not for others), and how fashion is less about judgment and more about curiosity, inspiration, and confidence. It's your armor, your energy, your way of taking on the day. And most importantly? You don't have to dim your light to fit in—because confidence isn't about intimidation; it's about lifting the world around you.   Tune in, get inspired, and start wearing + doing + creating + loving what makes your own heart happy.   Where & How to find Morgan: On Instagram- @morganrbaldwin   On TikTok- @morgan_baldwin   On the Web- MB Design & Illustration   To See More of Morgan's Favorite Inspo- jaquemus

    Claire Kampelman - Hair, Hustle & Heart

    You may know my next guest as Claire, clairecutshair, or the Vibe Guru behind Glossed Salon in St. Louis- but as she says so herself, the lore of Claire is crazy (the good kind).    With that in mind, may I present Claire Kampelman- she's not here for the small talk, but she is here to empower others, get you to your healthy + sexy hair prime, and to remind you that different is GOOD.    Friends it's time to get locked-in to these next 60 minutes as if you're taking your seat in the salon chair. Get ready to hear all the stories, plot twists, and tea about what's ahead for Claire and the Glossed Salon legacy. Many may say it's "just hair", but we all know it's so much more...    Where & How to find Claire: On Instagram- @clairecutshair @glossedsalon   On the Web- Glossed Salon

    Heidi Drexler - Her Eras Tour

    I am so beyond excited to introduce you to this next guest. You may know her from her photography business but like I always say, we're all made of stories- and she has some pretty amazing ones to tell (and still to come...).    May I present, Heidi Drexler: a home-obsessed creator, lifestyle photographer, creative director, color queen, boy mom, and bookshelf style guru just to name a few things...  Heidi is the brains, imagination, and lens behind Heidi Creative Co., where finally after decades spent capturing brands in their best light, it was time for her to celebrate and share the things that sparked joy and inspire others to find their happy, too.   Truly, friends, I hope you're ready to leave this conversation ready to celebrate your own Era's Tour- using your story as momentum while you thank where you've been, run after what you love, and get excited about where you're going- because you were meant for big beautiful things... Heidi & I say so ;)    Where & How to find Heidi: On Instagram- @heidicreativeco   On the Web- Heidi Creative Co.

    Yuval Ahlering - Finding Presence & Purpose in the Plot Twists

    I can't wait for you to tune in to the 'word salad' I got to have with the beautiful mind and soul behind this week's interview. (Don't worry, she explains what that means in this week's episode!)   Yuval Ahlering is a master class example in how to embrace your life's story, stay present, and find purpose in the plot twists. She shares here first with The Creative Plot listeners the big plot twist she just embraced... any guesses??? ... and what she's looking forward to the most.   Her perspectives and food for thought will help you navigate both sides of the coin life throws at you- for example, its ok if its horrible AND its ok if it leads to great things. This next chapter is full of intentiality, the kind of connection that goes so much deeper than words, and the difference we all can make when we listen to ourselves. In the wise words of Yuval, "it may not always work out, but it will always be worth it."     As we start a new year, this episode is full of reminders to embrace your humanity and find true connection... it's as easy as saying hi (bonus points if it's in line at Trader Joe's.)!

    New Year's Evolution vs. New Year's Resolution

    Well, friends, we made it to another New Year! What was originally intended as a "five for twenty-five" episode focused on your questions, comments, concerns, and plans for approaching this time of change and possibility (a well-curated twenty something minute episode I might add lol) is actually a 9 minute voice memo turned episode recorded while driving in my car.  Because transparently almost every person who wrote topic ideas, questions, or thoughts to me for this episode were all in alignment on one big thing- I want to show up as myself, but how? I want to pivot and do what I really feel I'm meant for, but I'm scared... How can I take up space?   Why do I feel like a straner or my business feel like a stranger to me right now?  The short answer? AUTHENTICITY.    As we approach this season I invite you to plot-twist your normal way of thinking/approaching NYE. Let's make many New Year's evolutions, not resolutions. And you may be thinking, "Sarah what are you even talking about, isn't it basically the same thing?" Nope. The main difference between evolution and resolution is that evolution is a process, while resolution is an intent.    Evolution: a gradual, consistent process of change that's focused on progress, not perfection. An evolution is about celebrating the journey and the destination, and it's judgment-free.   Resolution: an intent to find a solution to a problem or conflict.  Resolutions are often driven by the calendar and can be harsh, rooted in judgment or obligation, and they often focus on all the things we're not.   So with that, I invite you to give yourself 10 minutes to tune into this pep talk, and then as many minutes and moments as you need to enjoy the process of evolving your goals, dreams, and destination in 2025.
