"I love talking about rich artists!" That's what Jillian Todd wrote on the her google form to be on the podcast and I instantly knew I had to talk to this woman!!! The cultural narratives we hear greatly affect us--and most often they are holding us down and holding us back. In this episode we talk about:

•Breaking the stigma of artists being "starving" and finding financial stability through creative careers.

•Generosity, self-love, and harm reduction in activism.

•The binary of "starving artist" vs. "luxury VIP" and finding a balance. •Investing in art, finding local artists, and making money through various means.

•Defining success for creative entrepreneurs, with a focus on financial stability and making a living while honoring values.

And so much more!! I am so excited for you to hear this conversation. Please subscribe, review, and share--I need a village to get the word out there! Thank you.

As mere normal, non-theatrical humans, we don't generally get up on stage and create art that inspires people to see the world differently...oh wait...I forgot about social media! Scratch that! We are all performing our art! Melissa Kelley is a total badass. She is an activist in word, deed, and art. This conversation went deep, people! All of us gain something listening to Melissa's wisdom as we bring our work to the world.

We dive into

•Gender identity, trauma, societal expectations and healing through performance art

•Confronting societal expectations and living authentically •Impact, power, and fear in entrepreneurship and activism

•Facing fears, sharing personal stories, and being responsible with narratives

•Communication, vulnerability, and art with a focus on integrity and safety
