This past year has been quite challenging for me. As the final few episodes approach, I'll be reflecting on the podcast's progress over the past 4 years, discussing my current journey, and preparing for the new year. In this second part of the Reflect and Reset series, I'll be talking about embracing honesty, acknowledging my flaws, and striving to be a better person based on the lessons I've learned. Unfortunately, we won't have any N.O.W. Spotlight Artists to feature as we head into the new year, but I'm working on a great lineup to kick things off with a bang! If you have any suggestions for independent artists, please feel free to send an email. I would love to check them out and show my support.

In this episode of Grown Up, I discuss a topic that has come up many times for me during this self-discovery season: authenticity. In the show's first half, I talk about a part of myself that I have consciously not shared based on fears and worries.

Actor, screenwriter, and producer Jonathan Burke joins the podcast to discuss his entrepreneurial journey in the TV, Film, and Broadway industry. We discussed his first memory of discovering his passion, how he has built himself up, and more. Of course, at the end of each episode, we feature a new artist for the N.O.W. spotlight segment.
