Episode 12 (Solo) - Hidden Layers and Empathy

If you’re a performing or visual artist or creator of some kind, then you know the struggle of wondering whether the things you’re putting into the world are any good. If someone would just raise their hand and say, “That thing you did is awesome!” we’d know we’re on the right path. But often, it feels like a big competition. We’re at the mercy of others, waiting to hear whether we’re deemed worthy enough for a job, a role, a gig.

What if we could give ourselves the validation and the opportunities we need to keep going, keep growing, to reach our full potential?

Season 2 is full of super honest conversations with other performers, artists, and creative people who have already taken a chance on themselves and figured this stuff out. And I want their secrets! 

I want to know: How they figured out what really lights them up, how they’re translating that through their art form, how they got the courage and vulnerability to put their true selves out there into the world, even when it’s hard, even when the only person telling them to go for it was them.

We’re gonna learn how to lower the pressure on what you should be, to become what you’re meant to be. And we’re going to find out how to banish negativity and toxic environments to make the arts a more positive and supportive place to be in.

Let’s stop playing to win, and start showing up to thrive.
