Why not start off International Women’s Day with the launch of Seated with Strangers.
I decided to put 3 complete strangers [Whitney, Adwoa & Quase] together to talk about unsubscribing from celebrities as relationship goals.
As you can see they had a good time. 😂✨
When you visit the link in my bio you’ll see that this is a full experience podcast. Not only did we talk with strangers but we had a soundtrack for the EP, a recipe for you to try as you tune in and more.

How do you go from being pointed in the direction of getting a degree in Management and Information to winning two Telly awards and Two Emmy’s for a short documentary.
This conversation with @malekfotofilms was encouraging and a good nudge for any creative needing some direction.
I told Abi I’m pointing people back to him if they have any questions about one specific topic 😂

On the Podcast this week I chatted with @kaylavharris a multidisciplinary creative artist.
The main mediums she creates through are photo, video, and design. She's passionate about all things creative and bridging the gap between faith and art.
Kayla shares her story of change, transition, a lot of wrestling, a lot of things not looking how she thought they would and what it looked like to wait as a creative.

My original plan was to have my friends daughter film these scenes as my younger self and then show up at the end - - you know a quick cameo in the project. I literally wrote the script with her in mind.
She is everything I wish I was as a teen. Very aware of her creativity and cool with her no.
But a few days prior an emergency happened and she couldn’t show, I was faced with a choice of pushing it back until or show up on screen (I’m not an actor 😂, yes I know what I want to see on screen but I didn’t see that in myself).
In this moment I had to learn to get over myself. Creativity doesn’t always lend to comfort. What stories are missing in the world because you are stuck in your comfort zone?
Also you can catch @fannsanders directing me & the shenanigans behind scenes. 🖤

In EP 2, Shivawn sits down with award winning writer, producer and director @janlatae of @heartbeat_film_club .
Her commercial credits include work with Fox, CMT, Barbie, Amazon Studios, Paramount Pictures, Bravo, Hershey's, Pantene, Nickelodeon and OWN. Her short films have won numerous awards.
She recounts the time that she decided she was pitching to the producer of Dawson's Creek, taking a bus to the middle of nowhere thinking this was her shot of starting her career in film.

We can become distracted by well intentions or even doing a good thing at the wrong time.
On my Podcast this week I’m talking to all Creatives that have been hiding behind false humility, playing it small or being so consumed with what other people think that it’s stopped you from creating.
It’s literally go time and I want you to show up because I’m doing the same thing 🥴
You can listen to this EP anywhere podcast are available (adding to my bio as well)

Want to know the key to extending your reach so your people can see you?
Show up and tell your story.
Show up and tell your story.
Show up and tell your story.
Then show up some more and tell your story. This APP is a tool. Use it for just that.
Guess what… if you keep showing up sharing your story people usually tell other people if they found something they like. People are looking for authenticity and stories that connect with them.
Now don’t make this space the end all (putting all your eggs in one basket).
Get started on writing your book.
Get stated on writing your script.
Get stated writing today, like now.
If you don’t know the next step ask me and share this with someone who needs encouragement.

Create Beyond Sunday with Shivawn Mitchell & Stephanie Bwa Bwa
Create Beyond Sunday Conversations with Creatives in Media & Entertainment. What does it look like to be led by your faith in creativity beyond Sunday Morning?
Stephanie BwaBwa is a Jesus-centered Fantasy Fabricator. She's a young adult and fantasy author.
Dear (storytellers) Creatives 🦋
My journals were always full of stories and creative ideas.
I wonder where my stories would be if I was shown healthy perspective of my faith and storytelling instead of limits and fear.
⏰ It’s time for us to show up and create beyond Sunday. Yup our stories are needed in the church but there is a gap needing to be filled Monday through Saturday and I’m calling all of my creative friends out of hiding to show up and tell your stories.
🌎The world needs what we have to offer.
Be on the lookout for more conversations, pushing you to show up and create ➕ teaching you how to become a better storyteller.
Share this with your community.

Let’s talk about it this Thursday at 7:30 ish.
It’s really not about your ability but maybe you are telling the wrong stories to the wrong group of people.
Here’s one hint : you aren’t filling in the GAP and you’re just duplicating other people and their content because you see it works for them.
Save this as a reminder to come hang out with me on Thursday and tell one other person who needs HELP.
