Creative Myths That Need to Die

It’s time for some serious Myth Bustin’! This week Vanessa & Memes unpack a few myths about creativity that are actually full of shit. Did you know Sir Ian Mckellen didn’t become famous until he was 61 years old? Did you know Tina Fey worked at the front desk of a rec center while she took comedy classes? It’s not too late. Don’t niche down. And don’t quit your day job!

Shooting The Shit

We’ve got another rando episode for you this week as Mimi crashes out on the internet and Vanessa encourages her to take it one step at a time. We dive into restructuring how we view money, saving, and how it feels to be in over your head financially. Pro tip of the week? If you can’t afford the $10 latte, bring a tea bag to a coffee shop and ask for hot water (it’s free!)

Rebranding as an Artist

And perhaps for the lady, an entirely new identity? This week your favorite hosts chat rebranding, name changes, and the pivots that come from figuring out who you really are as an artist. Whether you’re trying out a new look, a new hobby, or sticking with your tried and true dusty old hat that you’ve been wearing on stage for a decade, now’s the time to ask yourself: who am I???

Crash Outs

What can we say? We’ve been crying on the internet a lot lately. From soul-crushing jobs to financial woes to just flat out feeling like we’re on a hamster wheel—it’s crash-out-o’clock! Join us as we rehash some recent personal lows and try to work our way back to homeostasis.

Mental Health Roadblocks

We have a special extended episode today on all things mental health! This week Vanessa and Mimi talk about getting vulnerable online, crashing out, moving to LA, and frustrating body issues. We unpack the struggles of having undiagnosed ADHD and how this manifests in our creative endeavors and can sometimes lead to a lack in focus and follow-through. Are we medicated? No. But are we making a lot of money? Also no.

Finishing The Artist’s Way

We did it! It may have taken us a little longer than 12 weeks but we finally finished The Artist’s Way! This week we unpack a few of our favorite take-aways from the book and a few revelations we’ve had along the way (read: crash-outs). Mimi sticks to her mantra “I am that bitch” and Vanessa finds a new love of all things floral. We take our play time very seriously, and we think Julia Cameron would be proud of us for that.

Starting Over in Your 30s

Sometimes starting over means packing your bags and moving across the country. Sometimes it’s a big career pivot. Other times it’s auditioning to be a Victoria Secret model or playing ice hockey again after 12 years off. Whatever the new and scary thing you’re after, trust us when we say…you can do hard things! Join Vanessa and Mimi in rebuilding their lives while battling self-doubt and perimenopause because really what else can you do but be a beginner one more time?

Creative Distractions

Ever have a dream so big you get so scared you have to binge an entire season of a comfort show? Or doom scroll on social media? Or go on a bunch of first dates? This, my friends, is what we’re calling a “Creative Distraction.” Or something you do to distract and self-soothe when your dreams feel too big and too scary. This week we come clean about what we do to wiggle out of our big dreams, and make a plan to get back on track.

Canva Create Conference

Canva, the international and multi-billion dollar company just rolled out some new products at the yearly Canva Create Conference and Vanessa and Mimi joined in on the fun! Come hang out with us as we chat about our favorite keynotes and sessions, as well as being in the room with Jon M. Chu, Issa Rae, and more amazing creatives paving the way for future generations of creators and dreamers!

What’s Going on This Week?

We’re back after a tiny hiatus and we’ve got updates! Vanessa gets home from a transformative trip to Los Angeles (and comes clean about wanting to move there). Mimi is knee-deep in preparing for the Denver Fringe Festival for her new show featuring a delusional tour guide named Darluh (Dolly Parton wig and southern accent included). Join us this week at Fringe and later in the month for Blooming Affair!
