Ep. 52.5 - Micro Pod ft. Author & Illustrator Sarah Momo Romero
Her Process
Think of episode 52.5 with Sarah Momo Romero as a P.S. to episode 52. It’s a rapid fire q&a where I ask my guests the same twelve questions to hear the similarities and differences among artists of the same and different genres. Some sample questions: Do you check out other artists within your genre on social media? What’s your creative ritual? Do you have a ‘go-to’ person who you bounce ideas off of. Let’s hear what this author/illustrator has to say! See pics of Sarah and her art, and fun facts at: Connect with host, Jo Bozarth at: Check out Sarah's site:

Ep. 51: Collaboration Series ft. Camilla Ochlan
Her Process
Today’s show wraps up my series on collaboration. It’s a tribute to art and to friendship. It’s about what happens when you’re on a roll, when you’re making strides, realizing your dream…and the unthinkable happens. What do you do? How do you go on? Do you go on? If you’re just joining Her Process for the first time, today’s guest, Camilla Ochlan, has been on the show before with her Werewolf Whisperer series writing partner, Bonita Gutierrez. But Camilla, being the creative soul that she is, and I’m guessing also a master at organization, has another writing partner...

I'm excited to be chatting with writer/director, Tina Cesa Ward and actor, Rachael Hip-Flores.

You’ve seen the hash tags #communityovercompetition and #collaborationovercompetition. Well, my guests today are giving those hash tags more than lip service…or tweet service?

Ep. 46.5 - Micro Pod ft. Recording Artist Drea
Her Process
Last week I promised a deep dive into the process of creating music. To be more specific, recording music. Recording artist and songwriter, Drea, is back with me to do just that. In the next fifteen minutes, you’ll hear about the recording of her last album, No Vacancy and how the process of recording her new music, including her latest release Hometown, is different. Part of it is that she’s in a different headspace, part of it is that she’s in more control of how she’s recording, and today she’s sharing that process with us. She talks about what happened in college, and beyond,...
info_outlineBack in episode 22, today’s guest, recording artist and songwriter, Drea, opened up to me about her experience as a victim of sexual assault. Today I’m checking back in with Drea in what is probably one of the most empowering episodes I will ever record.
In this episode, Drea talks about reclaiming ownership of her body, and who she is, through movement. And, she tells us how you can get in on this, too.
We talk about the affect the assault has had on her art, and how music has helped her to fully process what happened. Which brings me to her latest single, Hometown, and the music she’s writing and recording currently. There’s definitely been a shift in her creative process, and we touch on it in this episode, and take a deep dive into in the next episode.
And, stick around because Drea treats us to an absolutely beautiful performance of Hometown at the end of the show.
Alright, let’s get to it. Here is my chat with the lovely and soulful, Drea.
