The Kindness Warriors – Anthony Kauka Stanley (Kala Ukulele Artist) Ep. 36

The ukulele is often seen as a simple instrument, a toy or a novelty. Yet, in the hands of a master, it becomes a powerful tool of cultural expression and connection. This humble instrument, with its gentle and voicelike tones, carries within it the soul of the Hawaiian islands, transcending its small form to spread the spirit of Aloha across the world. Anthony Kauka Stanley was born into a very unique family: being of Hawaiian, Mexican, Greek, Chinese, Irish, Spanish, German, and Cherokee descent, his mother was blessed by the Kumu Hula to start her own Polynesian dance company at the unusually young age of 12. Anthony grew up performing with and would eventually become the music director of his family’s dance company, one of the largest in Southern California. During his time at Occidental College in Glendale, CA, where President Obama once walked the halls, Anthony found a respite from the demanding performance schedule of his family's Polynesian dance company by immersing himself in not just one, but four sports—football, basketball, wrestling and volleyball. Instead of hurting his performance, Anthony found the diversity of activities actually helped him excel at multiple sports; his dancing helped his agility and he remained the captain of multiple teams. In this conversation, Anthony shares a lot about the value of being completely present. We talk about how Steve met Anthony through his sponsorship with Kala Brand Ukuleles, Anthony shares about the importance of authenticity, community and leadership and how people will always need places they can feel safe, appreciated and inspired. Steve wonders how Anthony can keep up with so many commitments, and relates about how greater success seems to come from leaning harder into creativity. We also talk about the shadow side of performing, and how it’s easy to turn to drugs or alcohol when something used to be a healthy outlet (music) turns into a stressful job. Most notably, Steve askes Anthony about the hea

Monstrous, a poem – Rebecca Boatwright (writer)

Monstrous, a poem by Rebecca Boatwright. Seething, toiling, snarling within;a black shadow curling around the edges forced away with society’s wishes. Teeth bared, claws dug ina wolf of smoke and darknessstares out to anyone peeking within. Wild, feral, horrible as Sin,the people step back in fear.The recoil of the beast is unwantedits spirit bound by broken trust,an unwanted thing grown into unruly lust. But how we forget that wolf was once a pup curious, foraging and giddy with freedom. Wrong, hateful, worth shoving aside,he was bound by other’s damnation to abide. A force so strong it cannot be tamed dances again with passion’s flame unbind it, unbind it!the howl within rasps, our heart bleeding and empty without what’s been cursed as Monstrous. https://www.darlingstarheathen.com/#NorseMyth #Fenrir #Tyr Reference: Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman (Goodreads)

https://thelanguageofcreativitity.com #podcast #episode Artists and Healers with Clare Hedin ~ Music, Healing & Consciousness

If I had to choose an episode that is representative of my journey in the past 11 years, it would be this one with extraordinary #soundhealer, #artist and #polymath Clare Hedin. “There’s not enough in the world validating… us. As human beings we are not invited to be the whole of who we are… to be in our #livingsystem-ness.” says Clare. This is essentially the reason I started this podcast. And to share these ideas with the world feels...important. Clare wanted to understand the basis of human irrationality in order to help integrate the study of consciousness with a passion for healing social systems, and in doing so created the study of @dynamicemergence, a concept she describes as "the phenomena of novelty arising when two or more elements meet." We discuss how artists and healers both are #forerunners who explore #consciousness and #subtleenergy to explore the #unknown spaces. Episode 32 out now. #creatives #podcast Clare also makes energy art like the piece featured in this post 🙂 Check out her website for more!

Here’s an #outtake that did NOT make it into the final #edit of our latest #episode! When Google…ATTACKS! EPISODE LINK IN THE BIO #creativity #programmer #technology #creative #podcast

What does it take to make it in the Recording Industry? Our guest @joesolo1 coaches artists to bring out their best. Having developed @macygray from scratch, Joe shares his “#secrets” to hit songwriting. Spoiler Alert: it’s really not a secret. We talk about Joe’s favorite movie soundtrack #Interstellar, share tips and tricks for getting the most #emotion out of #vocalperformances, and also talk about the importance of #listening to #music, not just the classics. Joe is an inspiring guy, and if there was one thing he could share with everyone starting out in music it would be to “Never ever give up!” Look for Episode 20, LINK IN THE BIO #creativity #podcast #artist #ChristopherNolan #HansZimmer #macygray #producer #perfectionism #records #sound #songwriting #audioengineer #recording #hitmusic
