For the inaugural episode of Universal Folklore, I sat down with a longtime friend, Shawan Rice. Shawan is a musician based in NOLA and an overall brilliant and lovely person. Among many things, we talk about how she found herself in New Orleans, the importance of feeling a bit uncomfortable at times, and the struggle of recognizing and projecting your value as an artist.

Universal: Including or covering all or a whole collectively
 Folklore: Traditional customs, tales, sayings, dances or art forms preserved among people.

 
Everyone has a story to tell, and more often than not I find that our stories are similar enough to unite us. Before this podcast started, I would seek models out to sit for an hour or two. I would draw their portrait while we shared a conversation. It felt like every time I did this I would walk away with a broader world view. The experience was too good not to share.
 
The goal of Universal Folklore: To sit down with people from all walks of life to talk about their passions and learn their stories, with the hope of inspiring people and showing that we all have much more in common than we think.
 
Let's break bread.
