This podcast is part of the Clear Intentions series of the show.

Today, I’m joined by Matt Barnes, a lifelong artist and creative entrepreneur, to explore the power of leisure and the beauty of analog experiences. As the founder of The Leisure Club, a thoughtfully designed social clubhouse in Columbus, Matt has created a space where people can gather, connect and be more present. In this episode, we dive into the inspiration behind this unique gathering place, the role of intentional design in shaping human interactions, and why prioritizing rest isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential.

Become a member of the Leisure Club in Columbus, Ohio.

About Matt|

"At my root, I am a visual artist. I create things with my eyes and hands for others to see and experience. For over two decades, alongside a vibrant creative career, I have quietly dedicated myself to an expansive body of work, exploring a wide range of mediums including drawing, photography, collage, assemblage, poetry, and painting. 

Raised in the Midwest, my work both carries the imprints of my upbringing and an observational response to American culture. With a knowledge of historical art figures and philosophies my work, expressed through various mediums, is a unique reflection of the criteria I have intentionally consumed and unintentionally absorbed."
