Zoom calls. Perfectionism. Walking the dog. Feeling like a fraud. Between busy schedules and inner demons, creativity is easily drowned. The Creating in the Margins podcast is your lifeline: Tune into the monthly episodes to hear interviews with diverse creatives making their passion projects a reality in the margins of their lives. They’re also not just creating in the margins of their lives, but they (or the topics they cover) are also often marginalized, making it all the more important we hear and see them. Plus, I – your host, storyteller and globetrotter Kat Brendel - slay pesky doubts alongside you, covering everything from feeling like a shadow artist to toxic productivity in solo episodes. Let’s add some color to your margins! P.S. Want exclusive access to bonus tidbits that didn’t make it on the episodes?
