This week I talk failure and ambitions and how our brain can play a hell of a trick on us. I did couch to 5k back six years ago now and still run on the regular but after a month not running I was faced by my brain telling me "you suck". I could still run 5k and do so without much fuss but my target and goal posts had moved and I wasn't appreciating how far I'd come or even how just being able to do that was a huge goal a ALOT of people like it was for me back in 2019.So lets talk excersize, running, pride, self sabotage, guilt and shame and decide once and for all that if we're at least trying we're succeeding.The show is available on:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteSupport us onhttps://www.patreon.com/yellingatconcreteIf you'd like to support at all there is a patreon and I have the goal of finding 38 members by the end of the year to make the show fully funded in terms of the running costs!

This week i got to sit down with Katie Weinstein who is one of the principle members of  @rawdaisies  an alternative production company creating, films, events and art movements out in NYC. Katie was recommended by a previous guest and embodies that passion you love to see in art of finding something you really enjoy doing and trying to own that whole process to make sure it's done the way you like. So this week we talk independent film, DIY methods and really discuss what drives such a project from a personal perspective for Katie.

This week I sit down with myself and do something I dislike. Document my work.I've always said social media and content creation is coursework for creatives. It relies on un stunting our own exploration for the sake of having an audience present when we eventually release something. So this week I sit down to discuss that struggle and maybe find advice in the comments as to how to document your creative process and how not to.

This week I sit down with Tricia Duffy. Creator, teacher, writer, singer and host of her own podcast "in ten years time". Tricia found me in this instance and we decided to sit down and talk many topic but notably the impact of the creative process on mental state and its value to cognitive health. Tricia like myself involves herself in many things and in doing so is completing a PHD on the topic of creative practice and how it can be a benefit to your physical well being in many way which are often overlooked. We share that view of how to tackle a society built for money is often as well to simply create accessible opportunities so it was great to sit down and get to know her and her passions and discuss just how one practice folds into another.

This week I sit down to talk a personal gripe. Often on social media i follow artists and once in a while I see a comment or post like "Why aren't people engaging with my work?" "Why do they like that and not mine?" "Audiences just don't understand my stuff". And it irritates me as they seem to have forgotten, you're audience doesn't owe you their attention online. They have lives and other interests and its up to you to make something which breaks that mold for them.So this week lets talk marketing. Responsible art creation, audience engagement and most of all how to just make things for yourself.The show is available on:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteSupport us onhttps://www.patreon.com/yellingatconcreteIf you'd like to support at all there is a patreon and I have the goal of finding 38 members by the end of the year to make the show fully funded in terms of the running costs!

This week I sit down to talk grief, navigating change and how big moments can sometimes seem like they need a quick fix or a method you have used 100 times but grief is different. It comes in waves and can be like navigating the remnants of a broken building. It takes time to find the foundation again. If you're going through it right now or planning on making bigger changes in your life remember to be patient with yourself and make the measure of progress simply that you're keeping going to begin with.The show is available on:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteSupport us onhttps://www.patreon.com/yellingatconcreteIf you'd like to support at all there is a patreon and I have the goal of finding 38 members by the end of the year to make the show fully funded in terms of the running costs!
