In this episode, we sit down with Asa Mathat—renowned photographer, creative mentor, and master of reinvention. Asa shares how radical honesty changed his life, how failure shaped his success, and why even your darkest moments can become a creative spark. From photographing legends like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates to empowering at-risk youth through Camp Enlightenment—and yes, there’s even a story involving peanut butter and a naked model—Asa proves that the journey is as powerful as the destination.

“Even in your darkest times, there will be a little bit of light that cracks through. You can find creativity in that moment, in that space.”

This episode is packed with humor, hard lessons, and heartfelt inspiration you won’t want to miss.

From Here to There — Meet Your Hosts

In our very first episode, we flip the script and interview each other. Get to know Annie and Jose — two creatives with big dreams, weird paths, and a lot of stories. We talk childhood aspirations (spoiler: one of us wanted to be an astronaut, the other had a surprising plan to deal with bullies), what drives us today, and why we started this podcast. It’s the beginning of a conversation about where we’ve been, where we’re going, and all the unexpected turns along the way.

We’re incredibly grateful to have Bob K Sound as our producer and sound engineer. His expertise, precision, and creative instincts have elevated every episode of our podcast. From recording to final mix, Bob ensures we sound our best — and we’re lucky to have him on the team.
