Hey there Beauty Hunter,

I can’t wait to share this week’s episode with you—it’s a fun one! We just wrapped up an interview with our friends Carl and Jennifer Capo while we were doing a show in Virginia Beach, and let me tell you, their creative genius is next level. Fun fact: Carl actually played the wedding march for me to walk down the aisle at our wedding, but in true Carl fashion, he put his own spin on it… Jimi Hendrix style! Yep, it was as epic as it sounds.

In this episode, Carl and Jennifer dive into their creative journey—how they blend music, art, and everything in between. It’s a conversation filled with insights on pushing boundaries, staying inspired, and embracing your unique creative voice. Whether you're an artist, musician, or just someone who loves hearing how creatives keep the magic alive, you’re going to love this one.

Grab a cup of tea (or coffee), sit back, and enjoy this inspiring chat with the Capos. You might just walk away with a new spark for your own creative projects!

Can’t wait to hear what you think!
