  • Summary

  • The Mostly Professional Podcast explores the space between beginner and master of craft and career. Hear conversations and interviews with artists, creatives, entrepreneurs, small business owners, and more. Hear their tips for productivity, work-life balance, creativity, personal development, and making meaningful work.

    In this show, I interview people of various fields and backgrounds from actors, directors, small business owners, designers, and others who are pursuing their passions and goals with a DIY attitude and hard work. These people may be working solely in one area or across disciplines, working in the area they love or perhaps using their day-jobs to fund and create time for the work that is more meaningful to them.

    What I want to know is what they do, how they do it, advice they have for others in their fields or for anyone who wants to align their time, craft, and career closer together.

    Some of the topics I’ll also cover are productivity, creativity, finance, monetization, self-development, work-life balance, making and finding opportunities, and projects in development.

    This show is excellent for fans of Tim Ferriss, Joe Rogan, Stumble Through, self-development, business people, and artists of every medium.

    I hope you join us on The Mostly Professional Podcast to learn from and be inspired by and learn from these great people.

    Hosted by Matthew James French, a Brisbane-based actor, musician, writer, and tutor.
