In this episode of The Chris Dauphin Podcast, I sit down with Nashville visual artist and author Kimberly Clo for a conversation about art, healing, and the power of learning to let go.

We talk through her public art — from the EMBRACE mural in downtown Nashville to A Cross Section of My Being currently on display at GEODIS Park — and how her creative process is rooted in both intention and release.

We also dive into her book, Releasing the Past: A Back-of-the-Toilet Book About How to Really Let Sh*t Go — a mix of humor, honesty, and creative insight, complete with puns, haikus (“HaiPoos”), and practical ways to let go of things that no longer serve you.

This episode is all about letting go — of control, of perfection, and of the weight we carry too long.

In this episode of The Chris Dauphin Podcast, Chris sits down with Bob Hutchins, a thought leader in digital marketing and media ecology, to explore the profound ways technology shapes our lives. Bob delves into the concept of "media environments," discussing how our phones and screens pull us into different worlds, often at the cost of our awareness and relationships in the real world. They also explore the psychological impact of living in multiple environments, the importance of practicing boredom for creativity, and the crucial idea that could redefine your relationship with technology. Whether you’re curious about the hidden costs of your digital habits or seeking practical advice on managing your tech use, this episode offers deep insights and actionable takeaways.
