Hey ValidThoughts listeners, I hope you're doing well. Work has been quite busy, but I'm grateful that the podcast always reminds me to take a breather. We're back with a shorter episode this week, and I hope it offers you a little pause too.

Now, onto my guest – the first time I came across Mariette’s work was through La Nich. Then I finally met the artist behind the page, and I've been fascinated by her ever since. Mariette is calm and collected, and I really enjoyed getting a deeper glimpse into her life through our conversation.

As always, I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoyed recording it. See you soon!
