Freedom in Imperfection (GWTW753)

2024/01/11

I don't know about you, but I'm telling stories in my brain about myself again. Ten days into the new year, I feel like all my faults and imperfections are fully displayed. My mind is flooded with questions. What am I doing wrong? What changes do I need to make so that things will be different? Why couldn't I learn the lesson the first or even the fifteenth time? But in the middle of my pity party, I remembered a book recommended by Elizabeth Blake-Thomas in an earlier interview on Getting Work To

Creative Sin Eaters (GWTW751)

2024/01/03

While everyone is flexing on social media with their "New Year, New You" content, I started the year falling on my ass, literally. Sure, it hurts, but with pain comes introspection and insight, and the willingness to throw out the playbook, on day one. As a society, we are entering a challenging year. We are inundated with pain, fear, and rage across all walks of life on a daily basis. How are we to respond with our creativity and curiosity? How can art, beauty, and love stand a chance in an ocean

New Ways to Push Yourself (GWTW749)

Welcome to the middle of the dead week! You hanging in there? Full of food and waiting to kick off 2024 with all the energy you can muster? Naturally, I'm thinking about next year while wrapping up this year, just like every other content producer still producing work this week. But I want to give, hopefully, a little bit of a different spin on the "how to level up your 2024" message. I want you to do the work that matters to you, but I also want you to stay true to your convictions, boundaries, and

Who Influences You? (GWTW747)

Getting Work To Work ·

2023/12/20

I've thought a lot about influences throughout my life. From the guitarists who shaped my playing to the early playground that was the World Wide Web, I have been shaped by independent thinkers who find their own way through the world. And yet, I wrestle with what I want to do, need to do, should do, could do, you get the idea. Fortunately, and sarcastically, social media finds a way to mainline information that influences me to find answers in a 60-second video. I shake my head and move along, but

In this conversation, we talk about his writing process,

Let Ideas Evolve (GWTW745)

Getting Work To Work ·

2023/12/13

Last week, I talked about building and curating a library of ideas. Today, I want to talk about a part of ideation that can be frustrating: Letting ideas evolve from one form or medium to another. Earlier in my career, I demanded precision: every idea must become what it was meant to be. A logo, documentary, photo series, blog post, no room for evolution, why? Because my identity was firmly tied to what I did. I wanted to be known for the end product. So, I obsessed over the initial idea to ensure

“You Can Be The Best” with John Ply (GWTW744)

2023/12/08

When I first saw the title, You Can Be The Best, I was simultaneously skeptical and curious. Somewhere along my journey, I stopped thinking that being the best was possible. Fortunately, there are thinkers, authors, and mentors like today’s guest, John Ply, who can help you see yourself in new ways and help you know that you can be your best. John is the author of You Can Be the Best: Life Lessons from the Butcher and the Businessman and in this conversation, he shares wisdom learned from his

Your Library of Ideas (GWTW743)

Getting Work To Work ·

2023/12/06

Yesterday, I was the subject of a Q&A at a local college, and somebody asked a form of this question: What happens when an idea doesn't show up? I talked about journaling and checking in with myself to see what I'm thinking about and wrestling with, but I failed to share the creative power of curating a library. Yes, I love the public library. I go there when money is tight or if I want to read a book I'm unsure if I want to buy. But over the years, I've been collecting books, films, and art,

If you've enjoyed my conversations with gough of BeernutsProductions.com, you might recognize today's guest as someone I often talk about because his acting and characters make me laugh. That's right, people, it's Al Gibson, actor, musician, and Australian purveyor of creative wisdom and insight.

The Endless Cycle of Creativity (GWTW741)

Getting Work To Work ·

2023/11/30

The social media posts are telling about this time of year: content producers are planning and pausing. There’s nothing wrong with approaching creativity from a time-based perspective. We shove everything we touch into an economic calendar for better or worse. Seeing how hard big businesses are promoting their sales, all one can say is, “’tis the season.” But what I’m discovering is that creativity transcends the clock and calendar. Instead, it’s the deep and cyclical work of emptying yourself of

While You’re Planning Next Year (GWTW739)

It's that time of year when content creators are taking a moment to pause, reflect, and plan for next year. It could be looking at the themes you want to cover for the coming year, new project ideas, or people you want to interview. You may want to address that one sticking point in your process to increase flow from start to finish. No matter what it is, I hope you enjoy the planning process and consider the addition of a few areas to reflect upon, such as enjoyment, depth, increased authenticity,

How are you keeping fear out of your orbit? What do you want your legacy to be? Who must you connect with over a shared interest or project idea? How will you help bring the world back to love? Nothing but massive questions with today's guest, Julia Verdin, a director, writer, producer, and self-proclaimed multi-hyphenate.

Between Mediocrity & Greatness (GWTW737)

Getting Work To Work ·

2023/11/15

There is an infinite number of messages surrounding us. If we are willing to tune in and listen, we can learn a lot about our values, what companies are forcing us to accept, and where we've lost our way. Recently, through a combination of blog posts, books, and interviews on this podcast, I've been challenged to think about how the evolution of digital tools can impact our work and the mindset we bring to life. For over 20 years, I've seen tremendous growth in the affordability and power of

Elizabeth Blake-Thomas is not only nurturing a safe environment for butterflies to undergo the metamorphosis process, but she also applies that work to herself and others through her books and other creative endeavors. In this conversation, Elizabeth deeply shares her life experiences about curiosity, decision-making, perfectionism, and the stories of inspiration and delight that capture her heart

Funding Your Future (GWTW735)

2023/11/08

How in the world do you make money to fund your future? I think about this question a lot because I have no idea how anyone is making enough money in the digital economy on their work alone when platforms pay pennies per thousand for people watching, liking, sharing, commenting, you know the drill. I get even more confused when I think about newer free platforms; how are they making money? When people get used to free, why would they pay? With subscription services increasing monthly fees, how much
