Ep. 204 "Ticks, Birds & A.I." (2:2 Diary Entry with Gabe Ripley)

There's a wonderful parable in this Diary Entry, about boundaries and it really helped influence me a lot. My hope is that it will give each of you Listeners, food for thought as you soak up the wisdom of the wonderful, Gabe Ripley of Tattoo Now. (In connection with Reinventing the Tattoo and Fireside Tattoo). Have a beautiful week Listeners and to all who read these show notes, I wanted to tell you about the best movie I've ever seen (Cabrini . You might not have to pay to see it as Angel Studios has a Pay-it-Forward program). Go... watch it! It WILL give renewed hope. Thank you so much Gabe. You are one of the good ones my friend! You are an inspiration as well. :) ~Sound Design by: Amy Nicholls who owes (Sound Wizard) Chuck Nunn (@djchucknunn) for Intros/Exits and for his years of audio support that was the foundation of this podcast.
