    Came for Hayley prices episode and stayed for more! I’m not an artist myself, but as a PR coach for many artists and creatives, I’m always looking for resources I can recommend them. (And just as someone who loves art, these are powerful stories) Diversity often gets thrown around as a buzzword, but not in this case! Love that Alyson is highlighting such diverse artists!

    What a terrific show this morning! I began painting less than 4 years ago. I’m 72 now and can clearly see how the work adds up. Just launched a website to get my work out there for sale. Struggling artist and all that! Your show really hit on my own situation and hopefully will give me some guidance going forward as I’m economically insecure in every area. Thanks for a really useful podcast Alyson! And thanks to Alissa Grant for her wonderful story.
