Her Process

You know her from Days of Our Lives, Guiding Light, the Emmy award winning web series Venice, and so much more. I’m talking about Emmy Award winning actress, Crystal Chappell. And if it sounds like I use the word "Emmy" a lot in this intro, it's because this hard working lady has three of them! She acts, produces, directs, and I'm so grateful that she made the time to be on the podcast.

What you’re about to hear is a wonderful, caffeine fueled chat, where we cover a lot in a fairly short amount of time. We talk about how and why Crystal got into acting. She gives us a sense of how she approaches the craft and the characters she’s played. We cover her web series and how she’s been leading the way in the new media arena, and navigating the various pieces of that puzzle. And, we discuss her feature film, A Million Happy Nows, and so much more!

Go to www.herprocess.com to see behind the scenes photos of Crystal and check out some fun facts that we didn't talk about on the show!

Today I’m chatting with milliner, Shurie Southcott. We start our conversation by discussing the history and the importance of hats through the decades, and we ponder how and when they fell out of fashion in most of the US (with the exception of the south), and Shurie tells us how she’s doing her part to usher hat wearing and the hat experience, and everything it represents, back into fashion.

She tells us how she became a milliner, where she gets her inspiration, and lets us in on what goes into the making of hats as far as the process, the fabrics and materials she uses, the different styles, how she charges for her art…and so much more! And she gives tips on how you can ease into becoming a hat person! And maybe even a hat maker!

If you’re a regular listener, then today’s guest is going to be familiar to you. I’ve asked letterpress printer and calligrapher, Nariné Riley, from waaaay back in episode 29, to come back on the show. The last time she was on, I got so into talking about letterpress, that I didn’t ask her everything I wanted to know about calligraphy! She graciously accepted my invitation to come back on, and today we’re giving calligraphy the attention it deserves.

From friends commenting on her pretty handwriting, to taking it to the next level by taking a calligraphy class, to how she sensed progress starting to happen, Nariné takes us on her continuing journey in calligraphy.

She also explains the difference between traditional calligraphy and modern calligraphy, and tells us where the, super popular on Instagram, brush lettering fits in. She has the best hint as far as a tool for practicing your calligraphy, and she shares her online resources for materials, courses, and community. We talk about everything from developing your own style, to how to price your calligraphy services.

There’s so much good stuff here! So, I hope you’ll join me in welcoming back to Her Process, Nariné Riley. And, here we go!

It's the Her Process bonus episode! Musician, Leah Capelle is back to answer twelve questions that I ask of all my guests. Think of this episode as a P.S. to episode 31, where Leah breaks down what it's like to be an artist in a rapidly changing music industry. If you missed it, you can catch up and see photos and fun facts about Leah at www.herprocess.com.

Today, Leah talks about those pre-show jitters, and why she appreciates them. She speaks honestly about creative and emotional block. And, we chat about wheat types of representation she thinks would be most valuable to her at this stage of her career. There's a lot of good stuff in this little 15ish minute episode. Enjoy!

In this episode I’m chatting with musician, Leah Capelle.

I asked Leah about the importance of vocal training, and guys, I have to say, her answer was fascinating! You’ll want to hear this…it’s really cool and might change the way you listen to and look at your favorite vocalists.

Leah is an artist who is very business savvy. In fact, she’s studying the business and legal aspects of the music industry at USC to be able to help herself, and maybe even help others. Talk about a great left brain, right brain balance!

And I especially loved listening to Leah talk about her latest song, and how it really came together once she brought it to her band. She talks about the process of bringing it to life, and really illustrates the inner workings of a musician and her band.

We talk about the importance of doing a music video, and the importance of audio, audio visual, and social media for today’s artists. 

And just how do musicians make money from their music these days? And what’s the future of the music industry? We ponder these things and so much more during this fun, and informative chat.

Today I’m chatting with the Hoopie Awards 2017 Hooper of the Year, USA, Morgan Jenkins. Morgan gave me a quick hooping lesson before recording this episode, and it really got my blood pumping! I totally understand why hooping is called a movement meditation. During the show, Morgan explains exactly what that means, and she talks about ambient hooping as part of the flow arts.

It's so refreshing to talk to an artist who is all about being inclusive. Morgan is part of a hoop troupe called Hooptown Hotties, and their motto is “you can hoop with us.” Don't you just love that? Using her background as a camera assistant in the TV and film industry, Morgan and the Hooptown Hotties make amazing hooping videos. She shares a bit about the ladies’ video making process, choreography, and creative motivation. …And she tells us the route she recommends for learning hooping.

We also talk social media, and how Morgan, aka Miss Mojangles, has utilized it to further her hooping career, while remaining true to herself, even online.

I had so much fun talking with Morgan, and yes…now I totally want to pick up a hula hoop and go for it! And after listening to this episode, you will too! So without further ado, here is Miss Mojangles herself, Morgan Jenkins.

And now, here's a little bonus time with Nariné!

I'm so excited to introduce you to letterpress printer and calligrapher, Nariné Riley.

Nariné tells us how the love of writing cards, and making her own cards led to a career in stationery and the art of letterpress. She works with a machine from the 1880s, and explains just what goes into making all of the beautiful cards you’ll find in her online shop, The Grits.

Nariné has experience working in stationery and paper stores, which paper lovers and letter writers will definitely recognize. She fielded submissions from artists and makers, and now she’s the artist selling her product to shops. She shares a bit of her knowledge from both sides of the fence, and gives some tips on how to turn your art into a business.

And for all of you lovers of calligraphy, Nariné shares how she got her start doing calligraphy and how she’s incorporated it into her business.

The thing that stood out to me throughout my chat with Nariné is how much she has loved every step of the learning process in both of these arts, and how she continues to grow and savor the work and the time it all takes. That is real passion!
