Art In Your Heart
by Shawn Maus
What happens to the thing you were meant to make when life takes you somewhere else? Art In Your Heart is a podcast about creativity, reinvention, second acts, and the work we can’t quite let go of. Hosted by writer, filmmaker, and producer Shawn Maus, the show mixes honest conversations with artists, entrepreneurs, creators, and everyday people with solo episodes about the detours, disappointments, strange turns, and unexpected opportunities that shape a creative life. Some guests kept making things when sensible people might have quit. Some found their way back after years away. Some are still figuring out what comes next. And sometimes Shawn is too. Because the interesting part of a life usually isn’t the résumé. It’s what happened between the lines.
