Melanie is one of my longest running marketing clients, although over the five years we have been working together, we have never met in person. That's probably because she lives in Brussels, Belgium. Melanie is the founder and owner of Melanie Hussell Communication Coaching, where she teaches organizational development and business communication by enabling business leaders to speak up with confidence. I always enjoy catching up with Melanie, hearing the kind tone of her voice, and learning about (and assisting) with the new technology and tools she implements as her late-career startup business blossoms.

My aunt Diane is an entrepreneur and an energy healer. Although most people refer to her work as deep tissue massage therapy, it's much more than that. She works with her clients to release blocked energy which starts with behavior and personal experience, and ultimately manifests itself as physical ailments. Diane's lift path lead her to find a unique way to combine her knowledge of the human body and her God-given gift of sensing nature's energy in and around others. I hope you enjoy listening to her talk about her craft as much as I did in this episode of the Creative Truth. - Tyler ------------ About the Creative Truth Podcast The Creative Truth is a video podcast that was founded in 2019 by Terrass Misher (https://terrassmisher.com/) and Tyler Edic.

I met Chelsea Smith well... last night. About ten minutes before recording this episode. She got a hold of me through mutual friend and former podcast guest Annalise Brod (S2 Ep.4) to learn more about my experience podcasting and what it would take to have a remote guest on her show, "Jupiter in Gemini." I enjoyed getting to know Chelsea and her many artistic interests and entrepreneurial ventures, and I'm sure you will too. -Tyler Learn more about Chelsea: https://linktr.ee/noblelionprints Listen to Jupiter in Gemini: https://open.spotify.com/show/189f8zh2IXsK3XbLfgz91m ------------ About the Creative Truth Podcast The Creative Truth is a video podcast that was founded in 2019 by Terrass Misher (https://terrassmisher.com/) and Tyler Edic.

We booked this episode when I happened to bump into painter and podcast alumnus Bradley Collins with his partner Micah Norton, a motion graphics and visual effects artist working with SCAD (the Savannah College of Art and Design) and independently. We discussed our shared love of movie titles, creative process, and what it's like being in a relationship where both partners inspire, affect, and feed off of one-another's creativity.

Adam and I have known each other for 30+ years at this point. If you recognize the name, it's either because you grew up watching Bill Nye (no relation that we know of) or because you're a big fan of the podcast and listened to the episode with his younger brother and photographer Alex Nye (new episode with Alex dropping next week). Adam and I reconnected a couple years back and realized we have a shared passion for real estate. Adam is a highly successful real estate agent at Keller Williams Capital District in Albany, NY, where we are both originally from. Adam told me he wanted to get into the short term vacation rental business, I too want to be a part of it, and happen to live in a short term vacation destination. A match made in heaven. We've been working on a project together called Short Term Vacation Pro (STVR.pro).

When I worked at Visit Savannah, the city's destination marketing organization, a college student by the name of Francesca Poliseno came to work for me as a video production intern.

We're back! It's been about a year and a half since our last episode, but we're back with a limited run of new episodes, every Tuesday for the next couple months. Part of the reason for the hiatus was because of my business coach: Victoria Baylor, the guest in this week's podcast. I met Victoria when she came to speak about building your brand identity for the Savannah Jaycees. At the time, she was primarily coaching women business owners. Afterward, I kept seeing her around town at various networking and speaking events. At the time I was newly independent and going through some entrepreneurial growing pains, so I approached Victoria about some one-on-one coaching. What she provided for me changed the trajectory of my personal and professional life. Her kindness, active-listening, and attention to detail guided me to discovering the path laid out in front of me, and I cannot recommend her program enough. I had read all the business books, but Victoria helped me develop in the spiritual and emotional side, which I had previously overlooked. I can't understate how much I recommend finding a mentor or coach like Victoria for your business. About Victoria: Victoria Baylor is the owner of Victoria Baylor Leadership and Organization Development Solutions, a management consulting firm. She is a Leadership Development & Organizational Development Consultant, Coach, TEDx Speaker & keynote speaker with a focus on Optimizing Human Potential & Organizational Health.

This week I'm releasing a never-before-seen interview with Mr. Donovan Livingston. We recorded this in August of 2020 (seems like forever ago) and my life got so hectic that I wasn't able to post it on my podcast. But thankfully it's perfect for the Creative Truth.
Donovan is a rap artist, a poet, an author, a scholar, and a father. And we cover all of that in this interview.

In Bradley's paintings, he takes out every part of the creative process that would normally be left up to chance. In this episode, we explore his creative process where he, as the "boss," creates a work order explaining how, where, and what colors should be applied to the canvas by the "laborer," (also him). His paintings take anywhere from weeks to months complete, and he doesn't even like how some of them look, but "that doesn't really matter," Bradley states.

I met drew when I first moved to Savannah in July of 2018. At the time, I was working as a full-time videographer and she was working full time in a government affairs role, so I had no idea she had an interest in photography and creative pursuits. It wasn't until I starting speaking with Drew near the water cooler that I realized that she had a huge passion for not only the arts, but also helping and encouraging others to pursue their dreams. Since our time working together, Drew and I have both left our jobs, and Drew is currently a photographer, "encourager of others" and mom.

According to the Stables website: "Ryan Lawrence is a Savannah-based artist, woodworker, and co-creator of The Stables. Originally from Brick, New Jersey, Lawrence has worked as a carpenter since he was 15. Learning from his dad and his uncles, he got an education in woodworking in all its forms. He worked as a journeyman carpenter in New York for a number of years before moving to Los Angeles and pursuing street art and woodworking full-time starting in 2012. Lawrence’s wall hangings draw on elements of collage and are heavily influenced by Najavo textiles incorporating sharp angles, chevron patterns, and tonal brown hues.

"My friend Sarah Brooke Sandin is an artist, serial entrepreneur, real estate agent, and all-around kind soul living and working in Savannah, Georgia. She's the co-founder of The Stables where the Podbox/Creative Truth studio is located. I really enjoyed learning about her bohemian upbringing in rural California and the path that lead her here. Take a listen." - Tyler About Sarah Brooke Sandin: Sarah Sandin is a Savannah-based visual artist and co-creator of The Stables. Originally from Victoria, British Columbia, but raised in California, she had an extremely eccentric upbringing. Her parents nurtured creativity and expression and raised their family in an intentional community or on the road. Sarah is a classically interdisciplinary artist, drawing on the forms, techniques and strategies of many different art forms and expressing herself across a huge array of different mediums. A former performance artist and art director from Los Angeles, Sandin got her start in the arts and entertainment industry at 18 as a professional dancer performing with artists including Madonna, Robin Thicke, Lady Gaga, Aerosmith, The White Stripes, Puscifer, Drake, Usher, The Black Eyed Peas and many others. Sarah’s practice straddles several distinct artistic disciplines, questioning the division between them and opening up new hybrid possibilities for artists. She draws on her abilities as a painter, performer, conceptual artist, dancer and industrial artist to blend together aesthetic elements encouraging the cross-pollination of audiences between forms. Sarah now works as a painter and contributor to The Stables aesthetic and conceptual production. Sandin paints as if music were alive. Her visual art captures the energy and vibrancy that music and cinema bring to life with saturated, vivid colors. Her paint and ink splashes, sprays, and smears across the canvas as if she’s pulling the musical notes out of the air and committing them to the two-dimensional form.

In this episode co-hosted by Razz and me, we learned more about the backstory of Major, a soon-to-be Atlanta-based videographer and photographer we have worked with for a couple years through Pod On The Go. I hadn't heard a lot about Major's history, but I have always been confident that he'll go far with his career!

Chryssy Robinson is the founder and brand strategist at Kolor Addikt, a creative branding agency based out of Michigan. Using the systems she built, Chryssy contacted me through Instagram to talk about possible cross-promotion between our marketing agencies, and I was immediately interested in learning more about Chryssy and her story. She eventually was drawn toward graphic design and used her business background to help shape the brand story for her happy clients. To learn more, go to https://www.koloraddikt.com/.

I met Brian randomly through a mutual friend. He was wearing a cool hat. He also stood out to me as a cool person, and mentioned he did graphic design in the real estate industry up in Atlanta. At the time, I totally forgot to mention that I had a podcast featuring creative professionals, so I followed up with Brian on Instagram, and I'm so glad he did! He drops a lot of nuggets of wisdom on design and visual creativity. Take a listen. Follow Brian on Instagram: @briankendalljames Produced and Hosted by Tyler Edic. Edited by Hayes Griffin.

I don't remember HOW I started following Savannah filmmaker, consultant, and former Miss Georgia Shaunii (@shaunnirawls) on Instagram, but I do remember enjoying everything she put out there! I cold messaged her about coming on the podcast and she asked if she could bring her boyfriend and musician Really Khalil (@reallykhalil),the subject of many of her videos, with her... so naturally, I turned it into a two-part interview for the pod. Listen to a couple of Really Khalil's tracks (with Shaunii's video accompaniment) and you'll be amazed by the quality of self-produced content coming out of Savannah. I enjoyed talking with these two immensely and I hope you enjoy what they have to say. Stay tuned to the end to listen to a recent track "Supermodel" To learn more go to https://reallykhalil.com/ and https://www.confidencecaptured.com/.
This is another irregular episode of the Creative Truth.
Cory Smith is my former youth minister. I met him around 12 years old when I was still forming my beliefs about myself, religion, and the world. We've stayed in touch on and off over the years, and we recently had the time to catch up during his visit to Savannah to talk about some of the hard topics. I'm honored to know Cory and grateful to have him in my life, and even though I recognize that we're both imperfect, his opinion is very valuable to me and still helps shape my worldview to this day.
Derek Hoetmer, a.k.a "Subway Derek," and I met in 2012 at the 46 Street Station in Astoria, New York City. Despite our different backgrounds and career paths, we were both 21 years old, in our first couple weeks of living and interning in New York City hundreds of miles from home. The circumstances bizarre, and if you know NYC culture, the likelihood of us talking on my podcast ten years later is probably less than a million in one. Not only that, but I actually flew to Kansas for Derek and his wife Bailea's wedding in 2013. I always enjoyed walking around the city with Derek as he pointed out different flora, fauna, and famous architectural structures along our path. Learn about Landscape Architecture & Urban Design in this week's episode of the Creative Truth. Learn more about Derek's company Hoet: https://www.hoet.la/
Pam and I worked together at Visit Savannah, and I have always admired her creativity & attention to detail. For many of the videos I have created through the years at Visit Savannah, Pam's thoughts and ideas were a driving force. In this episode of the Creative Truth, we sat down and talked about what it's like to be a writer and marketing in the destination marketing world. Hosted by Tyler Edic: https://www.tyleredic.com/.

I first met David & Lara Colas when I produced a video for their company, Colas Modern. I quickly learned that David and I have a lot in common, including our shared love of skateboarding, so we've remained friends since. Colas Modern is a modern furniture and home good company, located right here in Savannah, Georgia. An eighth-generation craftsman, David has created several product lines including Modern Heritage, which blends time-proven classics with a modern twist in the design.

I first met Kait through her work with The Creative Coast, where she works as director of programming, scheduling events, webinar guests, creating content, and more. She is a Savannah native who is passionate about the region and its burgeoning technology community. Since I started editing videos for the Creative Coast, I have worked with Kait more often and greatly appreciate her networking ability and dedication to the greater Savannah region. In this way, Kait is an expert in building a technology community.

This episode of the Creative Truth is a little different. I turned 30 in December, so I wanted to take a moment to look back and reflect on my 20s. When I was in my early twenties, turning 30 seemed like a lifetime away. I thought by 30 I'd be married with kids, and a millionaire to boot. Instead, I spent my 20s battling with bankruptcy, relationships, alcohol, and chronic depression. Thankfully, looking back, I don't regret any of it and I feel better than ever. My hope is that by sharing my experience, other people fighting battles will realize that 1: You're not alone 2: There is a light at the end of the tunnel 3: There is help out there. If you or someone you know needs help, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-8255.

I first heard about Juwan Platt when I moved to Savannah in 2018. I was researching other video producers in Savannah when I stumbled across BCKYRD, a production & media company co-founded by Juwan and friends. Juwan has since gone on to create a profitable digital media consulting business, and I enjoyed meeting him and talking with him during this week's episode of the Creative Truth. To learn more about Juwan, follow him on social media @JuwanPlatt.
In this week's episode Razz and I talk about what it means and what it takes to leap of the faith. Razz has consistently taken risks throughout his life and career, whereas I have often been more conservative with my decisions and actions. But there have been times where taking the leap of faith is the only option! Take a listen. www.creative-truth.com. Hosted by Terrass Misher and Tyler Edic.
Sarah and I met in college and lived together our senior year, as well as during her three years of grad school studying "HCI," or Human Computer Interaction. During that time, we'd watch Black Mirror on netflix, try on VR headsets, and muse about the future of humanity and technology. Sarah is a UX researcher in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and I VERY much enjoyed talking with her during this week's episode of the Creative Truth. Learn more about the podcast at https://www.creative-truth.com. Hosted by Tyler Edic.
I met Christine in 2012 on the first day of our unpaid internship at the Late Show with David Letterman. We were both 21 at the time and were studying broadcasting at our respective colleges. We shared the 14th floor, the writer's floor, and a lot of personal beliefs and interests in common, so we immediately hit it off and have been friends ever since! I had a great time talking to and learning from Christine. She also has her own podcast, Obliterate, about breaking up with partners, family and friends. Learn more at https://obliteratepodcast.podbean.com/. Hosted by Tyler Edic.
In this week's episode of the Creative Truth podcast, I spoke to my old pal Bruce Pandolfo, who writes, raps, and sings under the moniker AllOne. He has been honing his craft out of Long Island for more than a decade, and I have always admired him and considered him to be one of the most intelligent but humble people I know. I learn something new every time I talk to him. We talk about what "success" means for artists, how to stay true to internal values and whether or not formal education is worth the investment. Stay tuned to the end to hear one of AllOne's recent tracks, Anodyne As Oblivion. Listen to more from Bruce at https://allonevoice.bandcamp.com/. About the pod: https://creative-truth.com. Hosted by Tyler Edic.
Back in 2015, way before I had ever listened to a podcast, I had a phone call with Alex Nye for a series called "Conversations with Creatives," but the series never happened. Six years later, I was honored to have Alex on the Creative Truth as a guest. We talked about his background and current path as a videographer, fine art, and architectural photographer, and how to maximize your time and impact by leveraging your intellectual property.

Terrass "Razz" Misher is the owner of Podcast On The Go, LLC, and Co-founder of The Creative Truth. We met at a networking event in Savannah, and immediately hit it off. After recording the Creative Truth for a few months, we established the Savannah Podcast Network and began networking with other podcasters in the Savannah area. Then toward the end of 2020, Razz and his family moved back home to Charlotte, NC. Going forward Razz is going to continue to be a part of the pod and my business, but neither of us really know what that will look like yet!

I sat down with one of my oldest friends Annalise Brod on her career in marketing and entrepreneurship. Annalise was raised by entrepreneurial parents and has always inspired me by re-inventing herself based on what she wants out of life. Most recently Anna has launched Building with Brods, a marketing consulting business focusing on women-owned-businesses and Plant Brod, a small pop-up plant shop out of her home in Denver, Colorado. Take a listen! Hosted by Tyler Edic.

In this episode, I sat down with friend and former co-worker Shannon Lowery, who heads up the social media channels at Visit Savannah, the destination marketing organization for Savannah, Georgia. Shannon studied dance during her undergrad, so it was really interesting to hear how her career has grown and changed from the time she first started in social media management. She is has starred in numerous videos I have produced, and is the host of Visit Savannah's podcast, "Savannah, Georgia: Anything But Ordinary". Hosted by Tyler Edic.

2020 has been bonkers. Razz & I combined forces in 2019 to start the Creative Truth; he has a love of audio, podcasting and storytelling, and I have a passion for video production, teaching, and learning from others. We've been on hiatus for a while, but it's time to fire up the ole podcast again. Here's what's happened in our neck of the woods: - We relocated the Podbox to The Stables in Savannah. - We upgraded our gear. - Razz and his family moved away to Charlotte. - Tyler is going to be the main solo host for now. We don't know what the future of the Creative Truth will be, but we know we have cool stories to tell, interesting people to interview, and we don't want to sit around and sit dormant until we can figure it out. In conclusion, 2021 and the future is looking bright. Cheers! -Tyler Learn more about the podcast at https://creative-truth.com
