The Ink Spill

In this episode we hear from Sierra Lomax who is the owner of Sisi Tashay Design Co. which assists creators with branding and messaging. She is a poetess, author and working on a journal.

Listen as we discuss what it means to be a story teller and how important it is to be intentional when you check on your strong friends. One powerful question that I want you to remember from this conversation is, "What are you not saying?" Then go write about that.

In this episode, I interviewed Baba McDaniel Roberts and Baba Ira Bond. In Swahili, "Baba" means "Father." These two men are indeed fathers of the communities they serve. They are educators, instructors, facilitators, mentors, and ather-figures.

Dance is one outlet of how they do this.

In this episode, we talked about Rites of Passage, finding your gifts, pursuing your passion, giving back, and African centered principles of life. You will learn something and be inspired.

As a creator, I believe that we communicate our heart in many art forms. Garret Chatmon, Jr., introducted himself to me because he is a student at my alma mater. The first thing that impressed me about him was his fearlessness to put himself out there and take a leap of faith to meet new people. Secondly, his passion to create a legacy for creators of the Creator speaks directly to my heart.

In this episode you will hear how he got started, mark this page and come back in five years to see his success. We discuss inspiration, courage and what is missing in the art world - business acumen.

Get your pen and a pad of paper to get some tools to spill the ink. You can purchase some of Garrett's art on his website: https://artchivedstudios.threadless.com/ and be sure to follow me: @Penscribed on IG.
