in a cafe with brian greenwald

As artists, many of us feel forced to produce less-than-quality work just to keep up with the demands of social media and the ever-changing algorithms. It's like we're sacrificing our artistic integrity for the sake of visibility, but should we compromise our artistic intention and value for a pay check?

Hannah Montana was such a formative show for me. I must of been 8 years old or so, and I just remember watching it every morning, every night, glued to the tv. It taught me two things. One: finding some sort of balance in your life and how to maintain it. Having the best of both worlds. Two: how to maintain great relationships with my family and friends. Keeping those people by your side to create more stabilization.

Who is the woman in a green scarf?

Recently I’ve tried to work on more projects and stimulate my creative thinking, but I've just been kinda down lately. I feel like every time I pick up the pen all I seem to do is scribble. 

AGING AHHH. Over the years my mindset of aging has changed drastically. Why is it that when we’re young all we want to do it grow up and be adults and have office jobs like a our parents, or travel the world like the people we idolize on our screens? Then we get to that age and all we want to do is turn back the clock.

Over The Garden Wall is one of those shows you can watch as many times as you want and get something new out of it every time. It was one of my inspirations for my poetry book, and I wanted to spend a whole episode talking about it :)

Charli XCX’s album, BRAT, highlights confidence, brutalism, and power of oneself. It got me thinking about how my own power has grown in past years, and how that’s reflective of my own self confidence.

why does the queer community hate suburbia so much?

The idea of nostalgia is more prevalent now, more than ever. My generation lives in a time where everything is reused and recycled. Nothing is new anymore! Why do we link onto nastalgia through consumption, whether it's through vintage clothes, or listening to music through old vinyls? Why do we CRAVE the past?

Coffee shops are vital as a queer space providing safety, support, and community in places where it can be challenging to find solace. Do coffee shops across Philadelphia universally provide this type of community, or does it vary depending on local neighborhood culture?

Creative Dilemma!!! We tend to want to do EVERYTHING all at ONCE. How do we slow down and create priorities in our life/career?

In a romantic sense we always think of finding "the one" someday that can have you feel a type of love you've never felt before. Sure, that can happen and I believe that it will. But does that specific feeling go away? Or will it last forever? Is there even such thing as forever when it comes to relationships?

Autumn is a season of change, pumpkins, and SEASONAL DEPRESSION! I've been trying figure out what helps me get through the changing of seasons every year, and so I share some tips on healing and pushing forward.

I've been in creative ruts one too many times, and am currently in one. In this episode I talk about how I've gotten out of them in the past, what's worked for me, and what hasn't. Getting out of your normal routine or experimenting with different art forms can help greatly! let's dissect why.

I've been fathoming a lot recently about masculinity and how it's not only presented in my own life, but also how society has dictated the role masculinity plays in our relationships.

I always hated people who are serial daters; people who just jump from one relationship to the next with no commitment. I've always pinned serial dating to people who date around a try to commit to multiple people, but recently my view has shifted. I'm noticing myself wanting to venture out and expand my dating pool. So in this episode I bring you on this journey into my NEW dating lifestyle.

I've moved into a new apartment on my own for the first time! In this episode I talk about what that process was like for me, and where my mind has been at these past couple weeks of transitioning into being on my own for pretty much the first time.

today we're drinking an iced latte and talking about being a hopeless romantic. figuring out where it all stems from. Are the relationships we form dictated by media consumption? or does it all come from how we were raised?
