About

Most podcasts are for your left brain.

This isn't.

If you are creative, independent person, one making your own stuff, doing your own work and trying to sell it in the market, most advice isn't enough.

Somehow it doesn't quite work.

You want it to work, you want to sell your works and ideas to those who most are touched by them.

You want to be one of the people who makes a difference with your work.

This is a podcast and site for exactly you. I am one of those people like you, creative, independent and maybe a little bit crazy to the outside world.

I believe that we are all creative individuals, capable of incredible things.

I was put on this earth to teach and do art: it is who I am.

I believe there is a new era of small business, where much of the costs of production and distribution have become so insignificant we can't be filtered out by big business looking for the lowest common demoninator.

It is the rise of the Creative Indie.

This podcast will help you become the successful creative indie. I will teach you how to overcome the true enemies-- Resistance, failure and fear.

I will show you how to become you best creative self no matter if you are an artist, musician, author, or app developer.

I will show you how to build and create, and make some money at it too.

If we all become our best selves, then we will change the world.
