Unblocked Creators
I interview artists and creatives of all kinds, including carvers, painters, filmmakers, inventors, scientists and psychologists, to break down their worldviews and help listeners become creatively unblocked.
Let's develop the psychological wholeness and agency to live out our dream life designs.
Let's unblock your path of creative purpose, and check out a lot of brilliant art along the way.
