  • Question 33 // What is a SWOT analysis for creatives ? (feat. Jordan Walker)
    Jordan Walker is a photographer, entrepreneur, musician, creative thinker,
    and a close friend of mine. He’s the CEO of Narrate Studios and if you’ve
    been following the podcast, you’ve seen his work because he took all the
    press and artwork photos for the podcast. 
    This episode is specifically for anyone who finds themselves thinking that
    being creative and being intentional seem like binary opposites and wishes
    they were able to find a way to connect that gap. 
    I sat down with Jordan to ask him about the balance he’s found being a
    creative person but also an intentional leader in the business side of his
    compony to see if he has any tactical advice and action steps you can put
    into place wherever you are in your creative journey.
    In this convo we talk about: 
    -Capsule Wardrobes
    -Decision Fatigue (the reason I started wearing all black a couple years
    ago and still do to this day)
    -The difference between working “in” a business and “on” your business
    What a SWOT analysis and Mission Statement are and how creatives can use
    them to find focus and clarity in what they do

  • Question 32 // How would a Sommelier pair wine with music? (feat. Leslee Miller)
    Leslee Miller is a certified Sommelier and owner of wine consulting firm,
    Amusée. She's also the co-founder and owner of one of the first wine clubs
    in America, Sip Better. In this terroir  packed episode we uncork way more
    than just my curiosity about the world of wine and what it takes to become
    a Sommelier. It’s a conversation about cultivating a curiosity about the
    world around you and having an openness experiencing life to the fullest.

  • Question 31 // What’s it like to grow up in Northern Ireland? (feat. Paul Crilly)
    Paul Crilly owns one of my favorite Irish pubs in Minneapolis, Morrissey’s.
    If you know me, you know I love Ireland and Irish culture. I set out to
    have a fun conversation about St. Patrick’s Day and ended up having a far
    deeper convo than I was expecting. What’s it REALLY like to grow up in
    Northern Ireland during “The Troubles”? What’s it like to move to America
    when you’re 19? And what make’s Irish Pubs so much more inviting than your
    typical bar?

  • Question 30 // What do you call adults who watch My Little Pony? (feat. Kyle Hultquist, Andrew Nelson & Sydney Armstrong)
    A year and a half ago, I saw a documentary called “Bronies: The extremely
    unexpected adult fans of My Little Pony” and ever since I started this
    podcast, I knew I wanted to sit down someone who considered themselves a
    Brony. When three of Minnesota’s experts on the topic agreed to indulge my
    curiosity over some of Minneapolis’ best cider, I thought I was in for a
    crash course about the fandom. Instead… what I got was a conversation that
    went way deeper. Community, gender-stereotypes, the internet as a tool (not
    a substitute) for meaningful social interactions and self-confidence were
    just a few of the topics we dove into. Leave any stereotype that gallops
    into your head at the door, pull up a bar stool, pour yourself a cider and
    listen in...

  • Question 29 // At what point do I magically become confident? (feat. Brett LaCasse)
    Brett is an electric guitar slinging friend of mine who, every time we play
    together, at some moment we find ourselves laughing and having a convo that
    goes deep. In this episode I convince Brett to sneak into a backstage
    storage closet between sets to record a conversation that ended up being
    one of my most personal, introspective ones yet. 
    Ever leave hanging out with someone and getting frustrated because you felt
    like you weren’t fully yourself around them? Did you used to think that one
    day all your insecurities would just disappear and you would become super
    confident? Ever have a hard time forgiving your past self? Me too. This
    one’s for you.

    alone in this.

  • Question 28 // Does pretentiousness hurt the world of beer & music? (feat. Kevin Welch)

    Kevin Welch is is the owner and head brewer of Minneapolis’ Boom Island Brewing Company. Sound familiar? I interviewed his wife Qiuxia. (Question 26 // Does Craft Beer Belong To White Men?) As a professional french horn player for the Minnesota Orchestra turned brewery owner, Kevin is passionate about both beer and music, however, the real reason I sat down with him is because of his passion to make both of those worlds as accessible as possible for the world to enjoy. Join me on a snowy winter’s night as I get out of the bitter cold to sit down with Kevin in his glowing warm brewery over one of his freshly brewed Belgian beers.  Recording Location: Boom Island Brewing Co, Minneapolis MN  For Links, Guest’s Info, and Show Notes VISIT: www.thecuriouspod.com / / / / /  Want to leave a message to be played on the podcast?

  • Question 27 // What can a 16yr old do about human trafficking? (feat. Kaiya Woller)
    My research for this episode began months ago when I heard a statistic
    saying that the Super Bowl is one of the single largest events where human
    trafficking happens in the U.S. each year. With the Super Bowl happening
    [this year] just a few miles from where Sarah and I live, my original title
    was going to be “What is Minneapolis doing to fight against human
    trafficking during Super Bowl LII?” In my research, I stumbled across a
    website that talked about ‘HT’ as an ongoing problem in Minnesota and their
    goal of bringing awareness to it by organizing a 5k for the past couple
    years and an additional “Virtual 5k” right before the Super Bowl. My
    curiosity was sparked even more when I found out that the organization was
    started by a 16yr old. I sat down over coffee with Kaiya Woller to learn
    more about ‘Human Trafficking’, what led her to start this, and what it’s
    like being a girl growing up living downtown Minneapolis.
