This week, yet ANOTHER inspiring Milwaukee woman ...

You’re in for a lyrical treat with this episode. Dasha Kelly Hamilton, Wisconsin’s Poet Laureate (and SO many more things) gives a veritable masterclass in dreaming in this conversation with Shelly & Meagan. 

Listen as we talk about … 

  • Writer’s block - is it really a thing? And how to beat it! 
  • What do we do with good ideas? Fizzled ideas? Great ideas that come to us at the wrong time? 
  • The permission to find the inventory of what makes you ‘dope’ and how we all have something creative to offer
  • Makin’ Cake - Dasha’s new show, how it evolved and where it’s going (and how YOU can see it live and get a piece of cake!)
