It’s been a long time since I’ve written an entry. I realized I had a draft that I never finished. I drafted it in June 2023 (please read below). I’m going to leave it as is. I will just write an update at the end of it.
Drafted on June 2023
It’s been a loooooong while since I’ve been on here….
I decided to write about how this blog originally came about. Lately, I have been backing up a lot of files from pictures, videos, audio, etc… trying to get organized. I came across some old audio files. I had forgotten about them. Those files reminded me that they inspired this blog. A friend and I had a media business a while back and we were in business for about 7 years. At some point, we decided to start a podcast. It focused on what our business was about. It also focused on us individually. There were many other topics that never saw the light of day. I really thought we could do something with this short lived podcast but the universe had other plans. The few episodes we actually recorded and released, were pretty good in my opinion. The episodes focused around our experience, skills, knowledge, etc…. we also had planned to interview other artists but never got that far. I decided to post one episode here to show my evolution as an artist. I did write about this on an earlier blog post. However, on the actual podcast episode, you can get a real feel for my evolution and personality.
I have been thinking a lot lately about starting a podcast but not sure what it would be about. I am overthinking it. Therefore, I’m not actually attempting it (welcome to my head). I listen to a lot of podcasts. Ideas always cross my mind. I also wonder, will anyone actually listen? or does that even matter? If one person listens, it would be enough for me. I’m just a regular person with no influence. It comes down to simply releasing your ideas into the world. Eventually, someone will find it and maybe be inspired to do something themselves. One of the ideas I have for a podcast is just talking about experiences, encounters, interactions, etc… you know, real life stuff. It’s almost like journaling but in audio form on a public format. As I’m writing this, maybe I’ll actually narrow it down and convince myself to do it, I’ll keep you posted.
As I simmer on these ideas, take a listen below. Get to know a little bit more about me and my artist evolution. Think of this as an intermission before the big show, whatever that is.
UPDATE: 1/19/26
Now that you have read the the above, here is an update. That podcast idea? Yeah, it finally happened! The idea came to me in March/April of 2025. I sat with it and let it simmer for awhile. I knew that I should not rush it and to take my time in developing it. I had to come up with a name, cover art, etc… Once the name came to me, I began to design the cover art. I also worked on the format of the podcast itself. The idea is simple, share my story about my childhood trauma and how I started my healing journey. In hopes it will reach the people that are in similar situations and open up the dialogue.
I have included the 1st episode below if you’re interested in listening to it. It’s more like an intro to the actual podcast. It explains how I came up the name and the meaning behind it. The 1st one below is through my hosting site/website. The 2nd one is Apple Podcasts and the 3rd is Spotify.
