Annnd we are back(ish). Taking you all back to March 2022 when I recorded this episode with longtime friend Betty Xie. Betty is a career coach for creatives, a fundraising consultant and a filmmaker. Throughout the years, I’ve often benefited from Betty’s advice and counsel and I’m glad she has professionalized it! In this conversation, we take you back to 2012 when we first met and talked through the various film projects we worked on (and how I inspired a character in one of her projects). For the ~full experience~ you could check out the films in the links below and the photos ON THE WEBSITE (which I forgot to plug at the end of the episode).

This was an episode recorded in the earlier days of the conception of this podcast in March 2022... In the episode, I caught up with singer-songwriter Gavin Sutton aka Tennyson Wolf, who introduced me to podcasts and without whom this podcast might not exist (sounds dramatic but true). We talked about how our lives intersected, the photos I’ve taken of him, friendships, making music as an independent musician and what we’ve been watching & listening. We covered quite a bit!!! There’s also a special follow-up with first guest Ammar at the end.

All the photos we talked about are on the website.

In a special three-part series to commemorate my 30th birthday, I asked 3 friends to share their experiences of being in their 30s. In the last episode of the mini-series, I talked to friend, mentor, filmmaker and festival programmer Aram Collier about his 30s from the perspective of a 40-something and a parent. The topic of potential parenthood and relationships with our parents came up in the first two episodes so I was really excited to hear what Aram had to say and the advice he gave.

If you haven't yet, please be sure to check out the first two episodes of the mini-series with MilenPS & Eunice Bae.

The podcast also has a new website iamthinkingaboutyou.com
