Art is the New Wall Street
We were sold a specific version of success. Get the degree. Climb the ladder. Hit the milestones. For artists and creatives, that plan usually comes with a quiet cost: the slow shrinking of the thing that makes you you.
Art is the New Wall Street is a podcast hosted by poet and creative director, Morgan Short for creatives who are done making their art fit around their life and are ready to build their life around their art. Every month, Morgan talks with musicians, writers, photographers, designers, dancers, and others who made that shift. Honest conversations about what it takes and what becomes possible when you do.
The show covers creative identity, creative process, imposter syndrome, leaving inherited ideas of success behind, and what it actually looks like to build a more fulfilling life.
