  • EP 74: Oh My God We're Back Again (Part 346)
    Jun 2 2022

    This week, Lex attempts to put Jingle Jangle Jules in the hot seat and things go amiss - or do they? As these two ding-dongs chat about their creative processes, they remind one another that overnight success often takes 10 years of hard work, and that the best thing you can do for yourself as a creator is to know who you are and lean into that.

  • Big Little Fails
    Mar 3 2022

    We're often told that the road to success is paved with failures, but what if you've never been allowed to fail before? Or what if no one's taught you how to fail without equating it to your personal value? On this week's episode, Jules and Lex reflect on the moments in their life where failure played a huge part in teaching them how to move forward (or did it?).

    We would love to have a conversation with our listeners about the lessons learned from your experiences with failure. Give us a call at: 707-892-0401
