  • Absurd Art and the Magic Pill of Perfection at Swell Sculpture Festival

    Where is our drive for perfection leading us, and what do we lose along the way?

    At SWELL Sculpture Festival 2026, Chrystal Dawn catches up with award-winning sculptor Drew McDonald beside Soma, his giant red toaster with dolphins leaping out of it. Drew shares how big, playful art can stop us in our tracks and wake us up, why it’s called Soma, and the dragon in a cave with your number on it.

  • How to Get Back in the Game of Your Own Life (When You Don't Feel Like It)

    What if the answer isn't more pressure, it's more participation?

    In the first ever episode of The PlayBrave Show, Chrystal Dawn Jameson shows up from a skatepark after two failed attempts to record from home; rain, grief, a 1am gut check, and a parking lot re-record included.

    What came out of it: a conversation about participation over perfection. About showing up for yourself especially when no one's watching. About doing the reps even when they're messy.

    Because that's what staying in the game actually looks like.

    This episode is for you if you've been waiting to feel ready. Waiting for the right moment. Waiting for life to calm down before you start living it.

    The reps are the work. And enough reps, you can do anything.

    Come play. Stay in the game. 💕
