-
- Self-Improvement
For the artful souls out there, those struggling with imposter syndrome, and perhaps those who weigh heavily on extension reflection, this episode is for you.
Max Stossel, celebrated poet and filmmaker, and winner of Forbes Storyteller of the Year, joins me today to share his journey of becoming a voice that resonates globally through his stand-up poetry and films.
But don’t think for a second that it came naturally. Getting a C in High School poetry didn’t exactly reflect his future. But with a drive for perfection and after one life-changing stamp of approval, everything changed.
His fundamental human desire to be understood and connected inspired what is today his transformative poetry and art.
Max provides insights into his creative process, the evolution of his work, and the dilemmas of creating meaningful art in a success-driven world. Tune in for inspiration to share your creations and the beautiful art of expression.
“...Show me what's worth your shrinking. I'd rather you step with power, with confidence in your being, regardless of what's beneath your feet. Tiptoeing is a dance that implies we don't belong here, that we're not welcome, that the fullness of our presence couldn't be handled…" - Max Stossel
