Listen Later

Will Akana is a voice actor, actor, singer, and YouTuber

David Hong is a fitness coach, dancer, actor, and writer

In this episode, we discuss the potential dark side of self-development - thinking you're better than others, negatively comparing, etc.

The theme of the Podcast
- In a world filled with distractions, and in a world where it's so easy to compare ourselves with others, it's hard to get out of our own heads and CREATE. This is where I converse with modern creatives across all disciplines - dancing, acting, writing, content creating -  learning how they got "good" at their craft and how they learned to be creative.
