Most people think professionalism is about fitting in, but what if it’s actually the reason we feel disconnected from ourselves? This podcast explores the tension between who we are and who we feel pressured to be at work, in relationships, and in everyday life.

Through candid conversations, we unpack how different environments shape our behavior, how limiting beliefs form, and what it looks like to actually understand yourself beyond the roles you play.

This week's episode features Kenneth Jeremiah Gomez aka Cloud Kent, who is a Contemporary POP artist who grew up in the streets of New York City. His rough beginnings as a kid enabled him to survive the concrete jungle.

His creative spark came in the form of art that his father would send from jail. Through an innocent mind, he channeled his empathy for his father as fuel to power and grow his love for art.

Although art was always a part of his life, he was put down and bullied for his passions growing up. In 2015, at the age of 25, Kennth underwent life saving open heart surgery.

After this rebirth, his heart illustrations gained new meaning … vulnerability … the expression of a child-like self.  Calling on the imagery of a superhero's flight, Cloud Kent emerged as an alter ego to save him from himself - his fears, depression, and emotional incarceration.

These days, his work embodies the freedom and child-like innocence that connects the audience back to that pure part of themselves.
