Yeah
13:13
...
13:13
but it was ori- the, the name actually originated way back at the start of the podcast when, um, Laura and I started it up.
13:20
So Laura actually has a chronic health condition, and I won't, you know, say too much.
13:25
I'm sure she wouldn't mind anyway.
13:26
But the rest piece came in there primarily from her angle because of having limited energy, and so needing to do the thing that you love, the painting and all of that side of things, but then having that rest in between.
13:40
So that's where, that's the history of the name, um, of the podcast.

We do, we have a couple of min- more minutes than, than I thought we might have, and I do wanna throw in this last question, which is what is lighting you up the most in all of the, the diverse work that you do right now?
14:36
And I think that is such a simple way that you've just stated of keeping yourself really grounded in what's important.
14:45
And, and I'm l-lucky-- I don't, actually, that's probably not the right word.
14:48
I was gonna say I'm lucky that I have, um, the ability to put my art in that space.
14:54
I think luck's not the right word.
14:56
Um, the reason I can do that is because I have multiple income streams in my art business, and I've set it up that way on purpose so that my art is not under pressure, and that allows me to be present, and it allows me when-- Like, I've, I'm coming through actually a little period of, like, a little bit of an art funk myself, and that, the way I've set up my business, has allowed me to give my art a bit of room to evolve because that's what it needs me, needs to do right now.
15:26
And so, you know, I'm go- I, I've set it up in a way that works for me, and again, you know, may or may not work for other people.
15:32
Just, you know, pull, pull what you like, you know, from other people's systems really, and ways of being.
