The time has finally come - The Social Muse has a podcast. My sister joins me in discussions about manifestation energy, living intentionally, boys, obviously, and interviews with different creatives. We're on Spotify, Apple, Amazon Music, and... well, honestly, if you're not on one of those three, I'm not sure what's happening…

Do you think ‘movie star’ when you hear the name Brandon Pitts? Not to put too much pressure on him, but honestly, that’s his trajectory. You want to talk about manifestation? This guy is so in tune with the universe, it’s unreal. And so inspiring. I’ve known him for… mm, maybe three weeks now and…

You know when you meet someone, and instantly just feel you’ll have a connection with them forever? Courtesy of the Author Yeah, that wasn’t the case with Tim… he was fine – average, really. Kind of bland personality, real monotone sounding, not funny at all. But then he started really ingratiating himself into the Judd Apatow…

Who better to interview for Thanksgiving week than Marney Henze? That’s a rhetorical question, obviously… Marney is one of my favorite people and I’m beyond flattered she sat down to share a snippet of her story with us, because she’s truly a beacon of light.

I’ve gone back and forth about the importance of identifying the relationship between the interviewer and the interviewee… is it important to know whether there’s a connection? Whether they’ve known each other for a while? And for how long? Ultimately, after reading an Issa Rae interview between her and a close friend, I decided…

Brandon and I go way back… specifically, to October 3rd, 2020, when we met on the set of ‘Bat Girl at War’ – a short fan film we were selected to star in by the lovely Alexzander Rogers. He put on his green Riddler costume and I could tell he was born to play a…

Supreme Court Justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away on Friday, the 18th. If I’m being completely honest, when the notification texts came through from my mom, aunt, and grandma, I didn’t understand what that meant for our country.

Many of us have heard and watched James Lipton interview performers on his show, Inside The Actors Studio, where he asks the same ten questions in that righteous, but earnest tone, such as ‘what sound do you love?’ or ‘what is your least favorite word?’ I’ve been greatly entertained watching beloved actors give their answers…
