In this episode of Peace & Good Wealth, Loy Carlos sits down with German artist Ruben Benjamin for a conversation on perception, curiosity, material, and the importance of physical experience in an increasingly digital world.

Working at the intersection of painting, sculpture, texture, and atmosphere, Benjamin creates works that shift dramatically between distance and proximity- surfaces that appear almost digital from afar, yet reveal deeply physical layers of pigment, erosion, and materiality up close. Together, they explore the relationship between engineering and creativity, the discipline behind artistic process, and why nature continues to inspire even in an era dominated by screens.

In this episode of Peace & Good Wealth, Loy Carlos sits down with actor and filmmaker Ethan Daniel Corbett to examine what it takes to sustain a career in acting beyond talent- discipline, repetition, and the willingness to challenge one's self to the limit.

From early exposure on Warner Brothers sets through his father’s four-decade career, to training within a highly selective theater program at Cal State Fullerton, Corbett reflects on a path shaped not by chance, but by structure and persistence.

The conversation moves through the realities of the profession: navigating rejection, developing a personal method, removing ego from performance, and understanding that there is no single “correct” way to work- only the responsibility to be prepared.

They also discuss the physical demands of transformation, including significant weight loss for roles in Regression and Astrolatry, and why aligning the body with the character is not aesthetic, but functional.

In this episode of Peace & Good Wealth, Loy Carlos sits down with NYC-based composer and author Charlie Rauh for a conversation on what modern life discourages- and what great art quietly restores: simplicity, patience, and quietude.

Rauh, the author of Simply, Patiently, Quietly (String Letter Publishing), shares how his work pushes back against hustle culture and why “being busy” has become a false virtue. Together, they explore the discipline of reduction (simple vs. simplistic), the link between patience and empathy—including Rauh’s experience as composer-in-residence at Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine—and the meaning of quiet beyond silence: as awareness, confidence, and healing.

They also discuss intentional art as an offering rather than a performance, the role of classic literature (including the Brontës) in modern creative life, and why—on guitar especially—vulnerability can be the very thing that makes the music land.

Technology promised connection- but often delivered noise. In this episode, Loy Carlos sits down with Revekka Palaiologou, Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, former Bloomberg software engineer, and Founder & CEO of Dion- the invite-only platform reshaping how people meet through social gifting.

Often called “the Venmo for drinks,” Dion is more than a transaction: it’s a modern social contract- sending a real cocktail, coffee, or matcha that can be redeemed in the real world, with clarity of intention (networking, dating, or socializing). Together, they explore how Dion is scaling across New York, Miami, Dubai, and Mexico City, and why the future of culture and brand relevance may belong to communities- not algorithms.

From etiquette and “when it’s charming vs. creepy,” to curated networks, circles, and the psychology of reciprocity- this conversation is a sharp look at how we might find our way back to meaningful connection.

What makes art resonate- technique, truth, or something we can’t quite name? 

In this intimate episode of Peace & Good Wealth, host Loy Carlos sits down with celebrated sculptor and cultural curator Leah Poller, whose figurative work delves into the energy that connects artist, object, and observer.

Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and known for her iconic Bed Series and Warrior Women sculptures, Poller reflects on her decades-long journey across continents, mediums, and mindsets. From forging a life as an artist and mother in post-1960s Paris, to collaborating with monumental foundries in China, to quietly championing the dignity of the “ordinary woman,” her story is one of discipline, disruption, and devotion to truth.

Together, they explore:

• The alchemy of turning energy into form
• The spiritual anatomy of a sculpted portrait
• How culture, not commerce, should define the value of art
• Why good art- like good wealth- transforms the one who holds it

At once poetic and practical, Leah reminds us that true art doesn’t just decorate a space- it dignifies the soul.

In this episode, we sit down with Rythum Singh, founder of Darzi Studio, whose work redefines tailoring as a deeply personal art form. With roots in Sikh culture and a reverence for craftsmanship passed through generations, Rhythm shares how clothing became both his voice and his canvas.

We explore how Darzi’s bespoke approach honors individuality, cultural tradition, and the quiet power of dressing with intention. From pastel palettes and tailored silhouettes to beadwork that tells love stories, this conversation weaves together style, identity, and the rituals of self-expression.

We also talk design philosophy, client rituals, the misconceptions around wool, and even a suit built to hold a detective’s handcuffs and sidearm.

Kelsie Watts joins Peace & Good Wealth for a radiant, real, and unfiltered conversation about chasing dreams, healing through music, and finding your voice.

From singing Desperado on a showboat to her Broadway debut as Jane Seymour in SIX: The Musical, Kelsie opens up about the unpredictable road to success, the reality of going viral, and the quiet power of staying true to yourself in a world obsessed with fitting in.

She talks about turning grief into purpose through mental health advocacy, creating community through song, and how a coffee-fueled karaoke moment became the spark that grew her audience from 20,000 to over a million. We also go behind the scenes of her new single “Fit In”—an anthem for every kid who felt awkward at prom, uninvited to the party, or told they weren’t enough.

In this heartfelt episode, Kelsie reminds us: authenticity isn’t just powerful- it’s magnetic.
