7. Corrin Evans on Being a Lifelong Storyteller, Shadow Work, and Learning to Celebrate Herself

Guys… buckle up. Because Corrin Evans (Filmmaker, Writer, Intimacy Coordinator), graced us with her presence and effin brought the realness. Corrin and I have been longtime friends and collaborators and I was desperate to get her on the podcast. She’s creative, she’s chaotic, and she’s always authentically Corrin (and we wouldn’t have it any other way). We dive into her journey as a multifaceted artist, reflecting on her transition from relentless overworking to understanding the value of self-care and mindful creativity. She shares insights about the intensity of the entertainment industry, letting her childhood joys influence her work and how she weaves elements of shadow work and surrealism into her projects. We talk about how we’re all just careening towards death (in an un-morbid way), feeling worthy enough to celebrate your achievements, and when you know life is trying to push you off a cliff, do you jump or let it push you?— Being a born and bred storyteller — How rom-coms are untrustworthy — The effects of growing up in a religious household — Intimately embracing death to have a new lease on life— The “canary in the coal mine” moments of her life and career — Being called HR when she’s intimacy coordinating, despite never being a rules girl — The Roadblock of being afraid of herself Resources Mentioned in the Episode Live Show: The Toledo ShowFilmmaker: Gaspar NoeLive Show: SwevenWebseries: Heavily Meditated with Joe ChambrelloWebseries: Joe Goes To Therapy with Joe ChambrelloBook: Notes to Myself: My Struggled to Become a Person by Hugh PratherUrinary Health Care: Uquora Connect with CorrinCorrin’s IGCorrin’s WebsiteCorrin’s IMDBHang out with Maddie Maddie’s IGMaddie’s Coaching IGMaddie’s Coaching WebsiteDon’t forget to like, subscribe, and review the podcast!
