Charlotte has been a lobster advocate since the age of 9.  This is the age she started spending her allowance money on purchasing them from the fishermen so she could release them back to their home in the sea.  Imagine those old salty dogs watching this spirited child.  Charlotte is still blowing people’s minds with her endless energy, enthusiasm, and boundary pushing.  Her main objective: to make the world a more joyful place for all beings.

+ experiment: how to get a lobster high

+ hotboxing Roscoe = a lobster bong

A taste:
“Sometimes something will just stick with you for a lifetime […] something you feel so much that it resonates in your system.  …I applied it to the Lobster Pound because I was thinking about all of the wonderful things this does but it was all at the expense of the lobster.  The quote from him [Dostoyevsky in The Brothers Karamazov]: ‘Imagine that you are creating a fabric of human destiny with the object of making men happy in the end, giving them peace and rest at last. Imagine that you are doing this but that it is essential and inevitable to torture to death only one tiny creature...'"

A taste:
“I don’t speak up for myself sometimes - over the years being a female in a leadership role I have been talked over.  I’ve brought ideas to a table in the middle of a meeting and those ideas were disregarded, but then 20 minutes later a guy brings it up and it’s uh, 'What a great idea!  I can’t believe we haven’t thought about that before!'”

Favorite quotes:

Janelle tells me the only person in town who knows more people than me is the postal lady.
I absolutely love this compliment.  And Janelle is the biggest connector of people in this community.  She is literally a rolodex of anything anyone would ever need.  And she gives this information away freely.  [Apologies for some wind noise!  I’m still learning how to record and edit like a pro ;P]

A taste:
“I think the health industry is not designed to get you better, but to numb your symptoms… […]  And in many other ways it continues to make you sick.”

“They eat more plant-based than most children do.  And they are more plant-based than my husband is.  So I try to get him not to sway or entice the children with these rich unhealthy foods.”

Favorite quotes:
“It’s easier to convince people of a lie than it is to convince them of the truth.”

It sounds like we’re in a dead show parking lot - and we are - in our own little universe created by Rainbow. 
Minus the drugs.  And the transient kids selling grilled cheese (takes one to know one).  We are sitting in a booth surrounded by rainbows of tie-dyed fabric all around us.  The joy on people’s faces as they enter the booth is priceless.  This conversation continued well beyond the recording to reveal Rainbow's professional Chef life, which overlapped the beginning of his tie-dyeing.

Interview highlights:
+ 30 years of Grateful Dead shows
+ rock and roll influences
+ siblings are the original influencers
+ consciousness and community
+ thousands of hours
+ teaching so the art form won’t die
+ keeping your hands busy
+ self-expression through art
+ do what you love
+ coming from supportive parents
+ giving things away returns more
+ wearing a G-string on a date
+ hoarding for visual inspiration
+ living in a lane that is fast

A taste:
“What is the dead about?  I think it’s consciousness really.  Bring people aware of what they’re doin’.  We’re all in this world together.  […]  We’re all one.  I’ve never seen a Grateful Dead fight.”

“You’re gonna make mistakes, but they’re also going to define your success.  Thousands of mistakes…you will eventually be successful in whatever you do.”

Favorite quotes:
“Have a great day.”
“Live in the now.”

This is not the first or the last time I will teach someone what “whore’s bath” means. 
At least someone already taught Jamy what dingleberries are.  No this interview is not about terrible terms in the English language, but it is about communication.  It’s about how an artist tells a story visually and helps keep memories alive.  Join us in Jamy’s abundant garden farm for zucchini muffins and chill biz talk.

Interview highlights:
+ remember printed photos?
+ building a community client base
+ spontaneous creativity
+ mentoring to learn
+ editing photos to recreate your eye
+ artists developing a business mind
+ choosing to not travel for work
+ side hustle vs. business license
+ a whores bath and dingleberries
+ there’s nothing wrong with the way we’re doing it
+ children are never about convenience
+ affecting change on the local level
+ you are the product of your time and place
+ zero fucks and doing you

A taste:
“I feel like it’s a service to people.  I feel like I’m lucky, like if I’d gone into dentistry people would be like,  ‘Uhhhh, I have to go see this person again.’  […]  Or just happy that I preserve memories for them.  Then their family is serviced - in a creative way.”

“This past year a lot of people think that what they’ve been doing is homeschool, and it’s not.  It’s school at home, which is worse.  Like way worse than even going to school.  You can’t manage a classroom online.”

Favorite quotes:
“It’s good enough for who it’s for.”

We are visited by 6 of Lisa’s 12 children and 2 of her almost 6 grandchildren.

A taste:
“If the potato farmers did well, the whole community did well.  Because they were the ones…if they were doing well then they spent within the community, which put money into everyone else’s pockets.  […]  If the farmers were doing well then they were employing people and all those people were spending money at the local stores and the grocery store.”

“Sometimes people get swallowed up in larger areas so it’s nice to be in a place where you can still feel a sense that individuals are valuable and everybody contributes and has something to offer…and you appreciate their different opinions.”

Favorite quotes:
“When the student is ready, the teacher arrives.”

“Let things go.  Like life is just…it’s too short to spend it worrying about petty shit.  […]  You have to be able to let it go.  You have to be able to say, ‘Ok, well, I messed up’ and then move on.  […]  I don’t ever hang onto stuff like that any more but I did a lot when I was younger.”

If Harry wasn’t already married, I’d ask for his hand. 
I mean, we are in Utah, so I could be wife #2.  I feel like Harry called me sweetheart enough times for us to be in a common law marriage, but that might not fly in court.  Regardless, he wants to take me hiking and camping and prospecting and I am so fucking down.

It turns out a “lambin’ shed” is not a “fuck den.” 
My bad.  My head’s always in the gutter…especially when there’s a tall glass of cowboy standing next to me.  We are challenging ourselves to make clam chowder from scratch using just-picked vegetables from our neighbor’s garden.  Let’s just say…things get steamy.

“What I have pursued in life is…you want the truth?…has nothing to do with my career…it’s just […] being a good person in the community that you are a part of…whether it’s building a wheelchair ramp for old Whistle Britches…”
