    I recently listened to the interview with Kate Smith and loved the convo. Great conversation, great questions, fun energy, and always inspiring hearing another artists journey! I was particularly excited to come across this episode because I knew Kate many moons ago and was happy to hear about how her career is unfolding. Go Kate!

    I so look forward to Margo’s podcasts releasing each week, and listen in bits & pieces as I drive my teenage kids around! Margo’s voice is uniquely warm, encouraging, and knowledgeable, like a friend who’s walked the path ahead of me. Each guest gives a wonderful glimpse into the variety of creative lives to be lived. This podcast reminds me that this creative life is non-linear, that this is okay, and that possibility is always within reach!

    Love the premise of creativity from a global perspective! Really interesting topics and inspiring stories make for such an engaging listen! I’m not an artist myself, but I have so many creatives in my community wanting to put their story and their work in front of more people, so I am always looking for resource to recommend them!
