Journey of an Artist
The path to success is rarely a straight line. And the path to success as a creative professional? That line tends to be especially squiggly. In the new series, Journey of an Artist, singer-songwriter and poet, Emmeline, talks to creatives from all walks of life about their passions, their paths, and the persistence they’ve employed to reach a point of professional and personal fulfillment. Emmeline sits down with voice actors, poets, dancers, musicians, graphic designers, stylists, and more to discuss the decisions they’ve made, the challenges they’ve faced, the obstacles they’ve overcome, and where they’d like their vision to take them next. She also reinforces the belief that—with love, grit, perseverance, and an abundance of joy—anything is possible.You can live the life you want, the life that brings you the most joy, and Emmeline's guests are living proof. Episodes air most Sundays at 12 PM CST on Deep Ellum Radio. For behind-the-scenes information and insights, follow Emmeline on Instagram at @EmmelineMusic.

Finding Creative Authenticity with How I Became A Wave
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
“You need to have security and confidence enough in yourself to invite someone else into the creative process.”
How do you keep the creative process from getting stale? How can you ensure fruitful collaboration with fellow creatives? How can you preserve with a group the open mind and heart needed to write from a truly vulnerable space.
How I Became A Wave tackles these questions and more in this episode! How I Became A Wave is more than just a band; it's a living, breathing collaborative that seeks to bring new musicians and new styles to every live show and recording. Helmed and conceived by Pat Carey, How I Became A Wave recently released its self-titled debut album. In this episode, Pat sits down with Emmeline to talk about how the project was created, how he was able to work with fellow musicians to breathe new and unique life into each of these songs, and what he's learned about vulnerability along the way. He also shares the importance of letting collaborators bring the fullness of themselves to each creative project!
