Kate Lund is a photographer, illustrator, plant mama, and a generally celestial being.

For many (including us), job hunting is a modern form of psychological torture. This week Jen and Paula talk about how they manage the job-hunting process, and the stress that goes with it. Jen talks about how you can make your own opportunities. Paula talks about the benefits of having a designated crying time (also known as ‘worry time’ or a ‘worry list’).

Jennifer is an award-winning actor and director, clown, theatre creator, entrepreneur, environmental activist, and all-round boss babe.

Collaboration plays such a key role, not only in the creative process and career progress of artists, but in everyday life. How do we make sure we are collaborating, and not being used, though?

This week we talk to Claudia Piggott, a multidisciplinary artist and designer who kicks goals in so many artistic arenas.

You can find Claudia here:

For the record, the phenomenal woman we were trying to think of was Gertrude Stein. You know, writer, publisher, art collector, arbiter of literary taste and the first American woman to have a public statue in New York City. Awkward.
