And we're back! After a long hiatus (too long if you ask me) Stoke the Wild returns with a brand new episode all about anxiety, fear, and the will to continue when creativity feels forced instead of joyful.

On this week's special episode, Nick is flying solo in these short sessions on creativity. How do we see the potential of what could be? Looking at a blank canvas can be terrifying, it can be inspiring, but often times mistakes keep us from dreaming. How do we take what we've learned from the past to see the potential of our future?

Happy Two Year Anniversary! Stoke the Wild is thankful and grateful to all our listeners who spent time with us these last two years. On this weeks episode, Nick & Joy talk about art for consumption vs art for engagement. It's an interesting conversation regarding the role of art in society, where our messaging comes from, and how we might think about creativity as something not designed for success but rather for imagining a better world. We hope you enjoy it.

Wow...what a ride, the nine episodes of WandaVision brought us an epic and you might say, divisive conclusion. This week, Nick & Joy talk trauma, pain, isolation, and their portrayal in WandaVision. Nick also goes on two tangents regarding fan petitions for movies and towards the end about emails with people. It's a whole thing.

This week Nick & Joy look back on the last year and how things they thought would work for their schedules failed. Not only that, but how to reproach creating healthy boundaries with work and personal time, creative projects, or just life in general. It's March again, again?
