I have a conversation with Lauryn Alvarez about throwing out the routine to listen to yourself and create from a space that goes beyond just putting art out for quick consumption. We take a dive into her upbringing, journey into creativity, her process and what a successful life being an artist mean to her.
Lauryn is an artist, photographer and multifaceted creative based in California I am constantly inspired by her and I know you will be too. Happy listening.

Being a first time author and trusting the process with Amanda Jones
Today's guest is Amanda Jones. Amanda is a filmmaker, art director and recent author of Dairy of a freelancer: a book filled with wisdom for anyone who is pursuing their dreams in any way. I had the honour of sitting with Amanda over a coffee to chat about her newly released book from the journey, to the process and what she see's Diary of a Freelancer becoming. It was such a grounding, relaxed and insightful conversation that I believe will encourage you.
Quote from the book:
