A New Creative Podcast Is Coming — And You’re Invited to the Network

Sun, 06 Apr 2025 21:02:00 -0500

🎙️ Welcome to the Network — A Creative Movement Begins

The mic checks are done, the cameras have rolled, and the voices of visionaries, builders, and dreamers have filled our studio. After months of deep conversations, shared laughs, and powerful insights, we’re proud to introduce you to 23 Journeys: A Network for Creatives — a podcast created by creatives for creatives.

Before the first episode even drops, we want to give you a glimpse of what’s coming. Think of this blog as our pre-show party — a chance to invite you into the community we’re building.

So, what’s 23 Journeys really about?

🎨 Real Conversations with Real Creators

Every episode explores what it means to build a creative career through connection. From seasoned networkers like Chris Gittings, who breaks down the power of LinkedIn for creatives, to Ashley Owens, who reminds us that networking isn’t just transactional — it’s relational. We’ve learned how Katie Taylor built a 7-figure swag business as a single mom by mixing heart with hustle and how Don Blizzard demystifies commercial insurance for creatives like us.

But we don’t just interview industry pros. We also get personal.

You’ll hear co-hosts Thato and Naomi Dadson unpack their creative journey — from photography to video production, family life to entrepreneurship. And yes, even the occasional creative disagreement gets air time (because, let’s be honest — collaboration isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it).

🧠 What Makes This Podcast Different?

It’s more than a podcast. It’s a network.

Every guest brings practical tips, tools, and challenging lessons learned. But more than that, they bring authenticity. Whether we’re talking with a marketing expert, an entertainment host who’s rocked stages with major brands, or a creative entrepreneur building community one event at a time, there’s one common thread:

Your next opportunity will come through your network. So, build it wisely.

We’re here to help you do just that.
