Episode 2: Starting Something New 



In Episode 2, the possums, Kacey, Katherine and Jamey discuss starting something new! We discuss the trials and tribulations of recording our first episode. All the feelings that came up putting out the podcast. One of the failed attempts, Katherine just recorded herself only, so it's just 45 minutes of her agreeing with no one!

 

  • Kacey has a party sub for lunch! Or does she? Jamey finds out what a party sub is. 
  • Jamey encourages people to paint right over the canvas, hey you paid for that! But also to stick with certain projects and don’t abandon them right away, even if its going to end up in the trash or being painted over. 
  • Katherine talks about a mentor who taught her about the pile of solved problems. Not everything has to be precious. 
  • The joy of being able to make things that never see the light of day. 
  • Kacey likes to start things and immediately kick it in the done bin, but she is learning a new way of doing things in the woodshop with Kat. Learning that the first draft isnt the only draft! What?! 
  • Kat has the opposite problem. With ADHD to thanks, finishing projects is the struggle, isn’t something that is 60% done, done?? 
  • Kat describes her fears of people taking her ideas once she puts them out into the world.
  • Kacey talks about her fear that her work is not good enough.  
  • We talk about how to deal with the struggle of getting compensated for your work, pricing, and how to deal with the times that you just aren’t making money for your work. Spoiler alert! You just cry. 
  • We decide this is a podcast where we can use all the cuss words. So get f-ing ready. 
  • Here is a blog post by Laura Jane Barnes, who came up with the song Jamey mentions. Turns out the song was too popular and fame f-ing sucks. But she is a creative business coach now, so check her out. 
  • At the end, we call out playing possum podcast which talks about professional wrestling, we challenge them to a possum on possum dueling podcast.
