Smash the Prototype (GWTW804)

Getting Work To Work ·

2025/03/14

When we start out doing something, we make mistakes until eventually something works. We build upon the things that work, actively avoiding what didn't work. We build our skills until they become the foundations for our initial prototypes and plans for our creative work. These plans help us to chart a course away from failure and the beginner's mind towards experience, excellence, and one day, mastery. Not a bad journey, if you ask me.

The Creative Lottery (GWTW802)

2025/02/23

What comes to mind when you think about playing the lottery? All the traveling you'll be able to afford? The golden beaches and beautiful bodies? The job you can finally quit? The house you can finally buy? The car? Finally! For creatives, the lottery might look differently. We can finally make that film that we've been writing for ten years. There will be enough money to justify learning how to podcast or leather craft or play the guitar. That book about penguins we can't stop researching and

“The Word of Dog” with Mark Rowlands (GWTW801)

2025/02/14

Have you ever thought about what your dog is thinking about at any given moment? Is it thinking about philosophy, the meaning of life, what that treat really signifies? Perhaps it's something deeper and beyond our comprehension. Today's guest on Getting Work To Work is the author of a new book, The Word of Dog: What Our Canine Companions Can Teach Us About Living a Good Life, that explores what we can learn about our own lives by examining the lives of our best friends.

Digital Immortality (GWTW800)

2025/01/31

Have you ever thought what you're leaving behind for the next generation? Whenever the conversation of legacy comes up, there are often two tracks of conversation: 1) the physical objects we make or the stuff we accumulate, and 2) the impact we have on others (financially, relationally, or emotionally). But last week, during my interview with philosopher Mark Rowlands about his new book, The Word of Dog: What Our Canine Companions Can Teach Us About Living a Good Life, we got on the subject of

“Meaningful Press Releases” with Mickie Kennedy...

2025/01/24

What's the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the term press release? Irrelevant? Old-fashioned? I know, boring, right? But nothing could be further from the truth. Today's guest on the show is Mickie Kennedy, Founder and President of eReleases, the small business leader for press release distribution. He is an expert at helping small businesses increase their visibility and credibility. If you're like me and know little to nothing about press releases, this episode will have you looking

Team Building for Solos (GWTW797)

Getting Work To Work ·

2025/01/08

We've all heard the phrase, "Teamwork makes the dream work." Maybe this one as well, "You can't do everything yourself." Over the past 18 years of business, whenever I was confronted with the idea of turning my business of one into a team-based endeavor, I wanted to prove that I could be the exception. I didn't want to bring anyone else in for multiple reasons, but mainly because I didn't know where to start. In today's episode of Getting Work To Work, I'm going to talk about how freelancers and

Where is the foundation of your happiness? For me, happiness was solely found in my mind. But after being introduced to today's guest, I learned that there is a strong connection between happiness and the body.

He's the writer, director, and visionary behind BeernutsProductions.com and is here to talk about his latest audio project, The Body Corporate Meeting.

Be Where Discovery Can Happen (GWTW793)

Getting Work To Work ·

2024/10/21

As long as I can remember, I've been intrigued with exploration. Growing up in the middle of nowhere, exploring the woods around the house was just the beginning. The starry nights captured my imagination, the road atlas showed how to get around the surrounding areas, and the globe revealed everything else. But exploration comes in multiple flavors because I should also mention the digital discoveries made in the 1990s through the personal computing, World Wide Web, and smart phone revolutions. As I

Healing Your Broken Creativity (GWTW792)

2024/10/12

What do you do when your creativity is broken? On top of that, what do you do when you rely upon your creativity to make a living? Earlier this year, my creativity not only cracked, but shattered into a million pieces. I paused all my side projects, calling it creative hibernation. I kept producing work for my recurring clients to the best of my ability, but also got a job to help pay bills. As I talked with people about what I was going through, the messages I received went something like this: "Me

What are the big questions that drive your mission and life's work? Are you someone who focuses on finding solutions to the massive problems in the world or someone who wants to be the very best at your craft?

Microcosmic Lessons (GWTW790)

2024/08/23

It's been a month since the last episode of Getting Work To Work. Every time I sat down to write, nothing came, so I said, "Maybe next week?" Eventually, I gave myself some grace and trusted that when something needed to be said, it would show up. And it finally did, yesterday, on a forklift, in the early morning hours. After finishing my work, I scribbled down some notes, mainly tiny lessons I have learned about myself and others over the past few weeks. I'm going to share these with you, with the

Today's guest needs no introduction because he's been on the show 19 times now, but I'm going to do one anyway. A legally blind filmmaker from Australia, gough is on Getting Work To Work to talk about his latest film, The Harsh Reality of Re-enactment Acting. We discuss his inspiration for the film, how he used editing techniques to land some jokes, and insights into the actors and the Beernuts Productions family.

Quick Hits of Inspiration (GWTW787)

What do you do for fun? How does that connect to your own curiosity and search for inspiration? Recently, a coworker asked me what I do for fun and I didn't like any of my answers. I think I cracked a joke about working all the time, but also said I enjoyed watching movies, listening to music, and watching the Cleveland Guardians. Pretty lame, I know, but it's also a critical indicator of just how empty my tanks are when it comes to creativity and curiosity. So, in preparation for this episode, I

“All Things Rejection” with Alice Draper (GWTW786)

The question in the email was simple: "Are you interested in a podcast discussion on using rejection as a tool for success?" What a way to capture someone's attention. Without a doubt, rejection is one of the biggest issues we face as creative entrepreneurs, and I was excited to talk with today's guest about it and find ways to get better at accepting rejection in all its forms. Alice Draper is the founder of Hustling Writers, a "publicity business...on a mission to make publicity easy and

Striving for Something New (GWTW785)

2024/06/19

What are you striving for in your life right now? Fortune and fame? Recognition from your peers, larger budgets, and dream clients? A story that you can turn into a 7-figure business? Peace, quiet, and a purposeful existence? The list of things we can strive for is endless. And yet, our energy and existence is not. We try to turn the dreams of our youth into the reality of our adulthood, hoping that nothing will change. But the older we get, the truth is that everything is constantly changing. Old
