Your Creative Push

Your Creative Push is the podcast that pushes YOU to pursue your creative passion, even though you have a busy, full-time life. Twice a week, Youngman Brown interviews artists, musicians, writers, photographers, graphic designers, and other inspirational creative individuals in an attempt to get them to inspire you to put aside your excuses and START DOING WORK. Each artist opens up to YOU, revealing the things that hold THEM back on a daily basis, and how they FIGHT THROUGH IT. They then give you one final push, in an attempt to motivate you to start doing work as soon as the episode is over. If you have a full-time job or full-time responsibilities and WISH that you had the COURAGE and MOTIVATION to FINALLY do that thing that has been on your mind, this podcast is for you!

Quotes:

“At thirteen, my dad made a studio for me in the attic where I dreamed of being a famous artist.”

“My dad wanted me to be an attorney.  It didn’t work out well for him.”

“I didn’t really come to understand painting until I was in my forties.”

“There has to be an authenticity about being an artist.  It is very important that you believe in what you paint, that you live it, and that you understand it.”
