    Back to Lifetime Special Delivery Points of No Return to Sender
    Aug 2 2022
    I’m back! The old blonde mare, she ain’t what she used to be I’m a horse of a different color….red to be exact. Been bathing in a mixture of my insecurities, a dash of the blood of my enemies and the tears of all my uteran and maginilaized freedom fighters that I navigate these new waters of sufferage that we find our selves in these days. A stampede of stallions with the wrong ideas can be led to water, but you can’t make them drink the kool-aid. Lots has changed, more than just my vermillion hair color. I am a Jaquiline of all trades on the open road to freelancing freedom and I know now that this untamed cart can not be tied to one outpost. Some surprises on the horizon and the worst of the Texas heat is still ahead. Power grid is unstable and the patients are running the asylum in the once great state, but I lead my days with optimistic nihilism and do my best to leave this potato shaped rock in better condition that I found it. This week we talk procrastination and getting back on the horse. If you like what you hear, please subscribe. Assembling the team and things can only go up from here.

We will dig into what happens when stress gets the best of you and the importance of letting it out. Please enjoy and subscribe!

    ..I Would’ve Gotten Away With it, if it Weren’t For Those Darn Kids or The Art of Failing Gracefully
    Apr 13 2022
    Reflecting on my past self, preparing for a new chapter and some tragedies amongst my orbit and a re-write was necessary this week. With all that uncertainty, I lean into my fears and dig into the concept of Imposter Syndrome. Please leave me a voicemail, I want to read or play your messages the air. * A swift recovery for Jake Ames and my good pal Alan who I’m so fucking grateful to not have lost and both having been in accidents recently. * RIP Daniel Sahad and Gilbert Gottfired, two larger than life voices that will be missed. This episode is brought to you by my diminishing insecurities and the letter R for “Really?” Yes, really.

  • I Quit

    I Quit
    Mar 28 2022

    Previously published with tracks from Spotify, this episode is a collection of recordings from Jan of this year until now as I was quitting my job in live music, detoxing from the environment and people that no longer served me. Rediscovering who I am as a creative and the future I was chasing before I took a left turn into the job and eventual catalyst for my indefinite exodus from that unstable landscape. Thanks for listening and please subscribe as that button smash helps me keep doing the thing. Leave me a voice message and I will shout it out on a future episode.

    A Disclaimer: This is my personal recount of events and how they made me feel. The names of the guilty and innocent aren't protected because they aren't mentioned....they don't matter to the story other than I had feelings of heartbreak and loss as a result of an incorrect impression I felt about what I meant to them. This isn't about them as I am sure any frustrations from them aren't about me.
