December 29, 2023 The Artist Block | Intro
Welcome to episode 1 of The Artist Block, a podcast all about creative humans and the way we navigate the world.

I am so excited to share this vulnerable side of me with anyone who would like to witness it. I hope that what I have learned so far can help someone who feels just as lost as I did.

Thanks for tuning in and enjoy!
