Today's episode we dive into the creative's journey, from cultivating authentic relationships and healing through music and art, to reclaiming time through entrepreneurship and reframing challenges as opportunities. 

In this episode of The Maven Podcast, I sit down with a talented DJ and Music Producer Tre Smith to dive into the dynamic journey of a creative artist. We explore the challenges and triumphs of building a career in the arts, from embracing multifaceted identities to balancing spontaneity with structure. Our conversation unpacks the value of authentic versus transactional relationships, the transformative role of music in personal healing, and the power of partnerships and collaboration. We also discuss how reclaiming time through entrepreneurship fosters freedom, overcoming self-doubt, and the idea that "no" is just the next opportunity. Whether you’re an artist, an entrepreneur, or simply navigating your path, this episode offers insights to inspire growth and creativity.
