Made to Make
Made to Make (formerly Painterly Life) is a podcast series about creativity across disciplines—and the resilience it takes to keep going.
On this channel, you’ll find honest conversations with artists, musicians, songwriters, photographers, producers, and makers of all kinds as they share their creative process, personal challenges, and what keeps them creating through uncertainty, doubt, and change.
This isn’t about hacks, overnight success, or perfect routines. It’s about the real work of living a creative life—the setbacks, breakthroughs, persistence, and the deeply human pull to make things.
If you’re a creative navigating the long road, questioning your path, or looking for meaningful conversations about art and life, you’re in the right place.
🎨 Expect stories that heal, tips that empower, and creative energy to fuel your soul.
🖌️ New episodes on the first and third Thursday of the month—because every guest is a new muse, just for you.
