Episode 179: Today I chat with the host of the Entrepreneurs on Fire podcast, John Lee Dumas. Artists are entrepreneurs, so I thought he could share some great insights. I”m not really sure what I had originally intended to ask him, but I decided at the last minute to ask him about something i’m struggling with: getting into the CEO or Entrepreneur mindset and I’m really glad I did. Hopefully, you’ll find it as helpful as I did.
He’s also just released his new book, The Common Path to Uncommon Success, which is a modern day version of Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich, with a 17-step roadmap to financial freedom and fulfillment. There is a link at the bottom of the post to purchase.

Episode 177: Today I talk to filmmaker and author, Brian Scott Mednick about the art of filmmaking. I connected with him after sending a mass email to which he replied, excuse me, who are you? We talk about idols, divas, researching a book without the internet, rejections…. Oh, and somehow, I get Woody Harrelson and Woody Allen confused. It is a truly inspirational chat.

Episode 174: Today I chat with Tamar Avishai, the host of The Lonely Palette podcast, where she “returns art history to the masses, one painting at at time.” I really dig Tamar’s show, because it’s insightful, and she really has a way of making it interesting for non-artists. It was great to chat with her!
